Twenty-One

Things I am currently putting off: my essay, rereading Frankenstein, and cleaning my room. Le sigh.

To cheer myself up/distract myself from my procrastination, I decided to wear my favourite skirt and my favourite sandals. The sandals are slowly falling apart. I might need to superglue them together or something. Anything to keep them each in one piece!

And, because I can, I'm going to tell you that this is my favourite nail polish, ever. OPI's "Ocean Love Potion." It's the most expensive nail polish I've ever bought, at almost ten dollars, so I'm determined to use it up and love it forever. But I really just meant to say that it matches my room. Oh, well, tangents are for cool kids. So is knitting.

It's too hot to think logically. I need another Otter Pop.

I finally went swimming today, which was glorious. I just hope I didn't get a sunburn. That would suck, since I'm going to the beach in about five days. It's so close, but so far away!

Also, my room is a mess, but I'm too tired to care. Note to self: if you let three-year-olds make houses out of pillows in your room, make them pick it up after.

Is it naptime yet?

I had a staring contest with a teddy bear.
And won.
(Which is a lie. My eyes are closed.)

Today we've got: wind, ill-fitting tank tops, dresses as skirts, smoothies, and an essay that's less than thrilling.

Six and a Birthday Lunch

My friend, Erika, turns twenty on Friday. Since she's going to be off adventuring on an island that day, we decided to celebrate today. We got lunch at one of our favourite restaurants, The Lemon Leaf Cafe, and had frozen yogurt. We've been chilling at her house ever since.

Yeah.

I have no idea where Erika's (flat) sandals are from, sorry.

First order of business for the summer: get up at two-thirty in the afternoon, which was glorious. I regret nothing.

Second order of business for the summer: get dressed and take pictures. I used two items from my list, the flutter-sleeve blouse and the eyelet skirt. I really should make a master item post.

Skirt: Fashion Bug | Top: Marshall's | Shoes: Payless | Ring: Vintage (for two bucks, living la vida awesome) | Cuff: vintage (hand-me-down, actually)

My hair is barely acceptable, but that's okay, because it will soon be full of chlorine and happiness. That's right, the third order of business for the summer: swimming. And hopefully not getting sunburned. Challenge accepted.

Leopard Lady

Let's start this post off with an outfit.

Shirt: Sure Clothing | Necklace: vintage | Bangles: Forever 21 | Skirt: Forever 21 | Orange bracelet: Casey | Shoes: Payless | Sunglasses: Tilly's

Also: I clearly have a thing for Wet 'n' Wild makeup, since both my lipstick and my eyeliner are from them, not that you can see my eyeliner. It's purple. But you know, I do love their lipstick. I have, like, five different shades.

Anyway.

You'll notice that my room is still messy. I'll probably be that way till next Friday. I've been pretty busy lately, studying, doing homework, writing, taking buses and trains everywhere, and watching Doctor Who. This semester can't end soon enough.

So next month will see a couple of awesome things. First and foremost: Casey and I are going to Carpinteria for a few days, and my level of joy is beyond containing. Second: I'm joining in the 30x30 Remix. Go check out DIY Fatshion and Animated Cardigan for more information. It's pretty simple, though. You pick thirty items of clothing and remix them every day of the month. It's an awesome way to look at your clothes more creatively. I know I fall into that rut where I wear the same outfits every week. Well, with some variation. Anyway, I'm going to be posting daily, or as close as I can get to it. It'll be like Fa(t)shion February, except in June, and more closet-oriented.

Welp, that's it. I'm off to figure out my thirty items, and watch the rest of season four. Enjoy your Friday! Oh, and let me know in the comments if you're planning on participating in 30x30, too!

Lust List

You know when you spend a little too much time online, and you get bored of all your favourite sites and you start window-shopping? It's simultaneously one of my favourite and least favourite things to do. I love looking at pretty things, finding cool new shoes or bags, seeing the awesome collections that your favourite sites have to offer...

Anyway, long story short, here are some things I'm listing after right now.
