prugs&forehead4l!f3

(Skirt: Self-made, Shirt: Express via Carissa, Shoes: Charlotte Russe, Watch: Target, Necklace: Tiffany's via Godparents)






This is it. proof. that I have more than two friends. As an individual who continuously takes pictures of herself, I actually associate well with other human beings other than Wendell the tripod (who's new btw. Holla!). This is Pragna. Call her Prugs. She REALLY likes it. Anyway, P and I decided to go on a skirt making endeavor, and I, the seasoned veteran, gladly showed her the way. (there are other skirts other than that, but I'm having trouble with my label sphere. So when I say veteran, I mean 4 skirts. Just for the record.) This one is one of my favorites, and we're glad to have P on the scene (she made hers as well) to bring in ideas about ribbons and contrasting color pockets. We are shooting for the stars, aiming for fitted circle skirt by the end of the summer. I also need to stock up on clothes before college. This photoshoot is JUST FOR YOU, blog viewer. Also, for Meredith Tuttle from Yours, Mine and Ours, because this outfit is TOTALLY modest. score.

Three Down

(Shirt: Express, Skirt: JCREW via Outlets, Shoes: Qupid via Modcloth, Necklace: Self-Made)






Days Since I Have Posted: 6
Number of Hours I Have Spent in the Car This Weekend: 8-10ish
Number of Purchases from Outlets: 4
Number of Exams I Have Finished: 3
Days Until Graduation: 6
Days Until the Last Day of School: 3
Number of Times I Will Wear This Skirt This Week: EVERY. DAY.
On another note, does anyone know how to get pictures from facebook by saving them? My computer just won't let me do it, and saves it as a webpage. And it's really annoying, becuase there are two outfit shots missing: 1. I wore suspenders. enough said. 2. Lori took them with her camera, so they were super good. 
Advice would be well received.

What a Stud

(Shirt: Express, Skirt: Thrifted, Tights: Target, Shoes: Modcloth, Belt: Mommed)




This was a good skirt. I got a lot of compliments. I got it at the quirkiest store I have ever been in, full of the weirdest things. I'm in love. The belt is great too! Normally my mom's things don't fit because she a lot taller than I am, but this belt is perfect. And mom has a tiny waist. :)
Today was rainy as HECK. But another trip to the pie store this afternoon with different friends made it a great day. It was so fun. even if they had run out of everything but cherry pie. I came home to a 30 foot drill filling my yard with mud. Yay geothermal heat!
Random Fact: I'm eating scallops for dinner. And I'm going to see an a capella group tonight. Completely made up of attractive college boys.

Some Days.

(Shirt: Kohl's, Sweater: H&M, Jeans: Seven for All Mankind via Plato's Closet, Belt: Target, Sweater: Made by Mom, Sunglasses: Cynthia Rowley)











Some Days. Some days you go to pour your smoothie out of the blender and get it and all the blender parts scattered around the kitchen. And then have to pay $8 for breakfast at Starbucks on the way to school.
Some days you wait in the Krispy Kreme line for 25 minutes instead of 5, having a heart attack because your sister is missing the test she has to take before school, but she had to bring donuts to school because it's a grade for English.
Some Days you can't find a specific 30 for 30 outfit piece that you desperately need so you have to substitute another black shirt that almost-but-not-quite matches in order to get the 30 done in time.
Some Days you want to go look at a vintage store downtown and can't find any parking so you have to pay. And then you feel stupid because you told your other friend that THERE WAS NO WAY I WAS PAYING TO PARK. THIS IS NOT NEW YORK but can't find anywhere else to. So you make up a lie about a dead cat to make yourself feel better. But then you look AND feel stupid. So you have to tell her you lied and she makes fun of you.
Some days you go into a vintage store and really like a dress that costs a lot more than anything you can afford. And sometimes you cheat the 30 for 30 and buy a little something for yourself, but promise not to wear it until after the 30 for 30, so it's the same as putting it on hold and picking it up in 4/5 days. Right?
But some days, good things happen. Like winning a class Poetry Out Loud competition that you prepared for for forever and planned out every single move, coming closer to realizing the dream of doing something awesome like biking across America, not making a complete fool of myself at the Constitutional Issues practice hearing, and being told a point was good, even if I felt like an idiot when answering the follow-ups because I COULD. NOT. GET. TO. THE POINT. fast enough, and some days you get a lot of compliments on the scarf your mother made for you.
And those "some days" make the other "some days" worth it.
(see the orange stripey sweater on the rack in the mirror pic? That's what I bought. DARN YOU WILL POWER. And aren't the dress and belt beautiful? I don't need another belt, and the dress way WAY too expensive. Sad day.)
