if i was your boyfriend

first
time
ever
wearing
boyfriend
jeans
life is exciting huh? i found these pants on the free shelf at school and today was my first time wearing them.  hoorah! they are vintage Tommy Hilfiger jeans rolled a few times, and paired along is a Juicy Couture tank and a pair of Birkenstocks.  proud to say everything i am wearing is 100% second hand and therefore cost me approximately $10.  hot dang what a steal.

ps. don't let the intimidation of "professionals" scare you away from pursuing what you love. zealousness can be far more powerful than knowledge.
i can thank my actual boyfriend, not just my pants, for this little reminder.

happy sunday

summer, it's good to see you again

summer has officially begun! i'm home, almost (not really) unpacked and ready to embark on the adventures that summer has to offer.  i'm looking forward to some much needed family time, friend time & me time!  i have already gotten in some solid thrifting, have had some time catching up with old friends and have relished in the joy of having no responsibilies.  three whole months of nothing--what a glorious occasion.  i can't wait to do more, see more and accomplish more during this much needed break.

today, i wore a thrifted sun dress, Birkenstocks and a Charlotte Russe sweater with crocheted details. a simple & summery (alliteration) look for a nice day of coffee and conversation (alliteration x2) and high school baseball.
so good to be home

enjoy

friday-yay

friday' are a glorious occasion--especially since school is winding down to an end.  it's almost summer time, cue High School Musical 2.

for those of you still in school, grasp on to your last drops of sanity and finish strong.  you've made it this far.  take heart my friends
we.can.do.this

today i wore a pair of velvet cropped pants, a white crop top and silver Gap flats.  lots of funky texture going on in this look & i love it.  i must say though, i am in DESPERATE need for a thrifting spree because it has been a while.  college budget probs.  definitely on the to-do list for the summer.
this summer will be a summer of lists: reading lists, bucket lists, shopping lists, to-do lists. lists make the world go 'round.

enjoy
xoxo
