Clearly not as many cool things as us.

P.S. Forever 21 really upped their shoe game! Too bad I fail at making money....

Fix Me In 45

Somehow, despite having two extra hours in the morning, I managed to leave myself the exact same time as usual to get ready. Hm, funny how that happens.




Thrifted cardigan. Hanes mens t-shirt. Target leggings. Wet Seal necklace. Doc Marten boots.

I did however get a chance to try out my new lipstick and lipliner! And it was awesome. It looks less intense in these photos than it actually was, though. It's MAC lipstick in Ruby Woo if anyone was wondering, and it's totes fab-u-lous! But my outfit was a spaz (in a good way I think) I was like well I should wear glamorous sorta stuff like this cardigan and pearls and then I ended up putting on floral leggings and Docs. Yep. That sums it up.

Tehehe What Wimps!

Haha they just gave us a two hour delay, which is like the best thing ever since you don't have to make it up in the summer like a snow day. But it's funny because we got like 2 inches max of snow. Once upon a time we got three feet in a blizzard and only got two days off! But I can't really complain.



Thrifted Sonia Rykiel fringe blazer and studded heels. American Apparel dress. Three pairs of tights.

5:58

or, Make The Freaking Power Outages Stop. I was going to post this morning, I swear but then the power went out again, and I am so behind on outfits... here's last Friday's.




Wet Seal jacket and lol-iscious gothic cross necklace. Forever 21 v-neck. DIY ripped leggings and Hue tights. Doc Marten boots.

My lips are so pink because I was just at the mall and I tried on lipstick at MAC. I didn't like the color enough to buy it, though, but on Sunday I got some amazing matte red lipstick that I'm dying to try out.

But, the title. We had a practice race today in track, and... well, my previous personal record from spring track was 6:22. So I blew like 24 seconds off! It was so excited because there were five people who were really competing for the four top spots and I wasn't expecting much, but since it was so competitive I just threw myself into it and it was yayness! I tied for second, but I know I'll have to work really hard to keep that spot. But anyway... Victoria slept over Saturday night and we did (what else) a photoshoot that I'll post later.

Ice Ice Baby

Wow I feel so discombobulated. I don't even know why. But anyway, yesterday was fun. It was our first snow day (or rather, ice day as there was unfortunately no snow involved). I woke up in the morning a bit early with the intention of straightening my hair, but as I turned the switch on my lamp it didn't turn on. Maybe the bulb was dead or... the power was out! And it was. It was quite exhilarating in a weird way to realize that there was no computers, no internet, no house phone, and first and foremost no lights on a pitch black New England morning at 5:45. So I basically read my book, Brisingr, (I know I'm so cool) by flashlight and later candlelight, and to make a long story short we went to the mall because it had power and was near my dad's work. By the time we came home the power was back on in my neighborhood, but the power company left a message saying that some areas wouldn't get power back for two or three days. Wow, that sucks, considering temperatures dropped to 17 degrees F last night. But seeing all the trees looking like this was fun. But Thursday's outfit:




Forever 21 blazer. Target t-shirt. American Apparel dress. Grandmother's mink collar thing. Doc Marten boots.

I realize that I really need to wear more color. I wear everything black and white all the time, gah. BUT at Zara they had this amazing dress that was kind of a blatant knockoff of this. And it was only $35! But, there were several small issues: on both dresses I tried on the slit was ripped several inches higher than it was supposed to be, the seams were falling apart and it just fit terribly. It was way too tight in the hip and there was all this excess fabric in the stomach area. So I didn't get it.

She Wore Crushed Velvet, Jet Black And To The Floor

If you know what song that's from, you instantly win 1000 pts. And become considerably less cool. C'mon, there has to be some people who went through a brief wannabe faux emo faze?





Wet Seal jacket. Thrifted dress. Payless tights and heels.

I took a lot of pictures, this isn't even all of them. I really have to go get ready....

"Those Are... Running Tights?"

If you are easily disturbed, you might want to skip over the next image.
I will come for you tooonnight!
H&M jacket. DIY cropped t-shirt and skirt. Nike running leggings (who's cool!). Doc Martens boots.

I couldn't resist wearing my new leggings to school. They're fuzzy on the inside and so comfortable. And they kept my legs warm while running 6 miles in 20 degree weather, not counting wind chill. My hands were a different story.
