Get the London Look





I had this really weird dream the other night that I got married in a parking lot. Strangely enough, in the dream, I thought it was wicked cool. Until, a friend turned up and told me it was super lame and then dream me proceeded to get thoroughly upset. Dream me is quite the sensitive gal, no? Easily upset she is. 'Course, so is real me. ;) I finished re-reading the Harry Potter series last night. Sigh, I looooves dem books. If you couldn't tell, this outfit was heavily inspired by the Potter Man. ;) Also, is it lame that I still completely SOB when Hedwig, and Dobby die? Seriously, whenever I get to, "Here lies Dobby, a free Elf." I loose my marbles. Not even kidding. I get all, "DOBBYYYYYYYY!!! WHYYYYY?! WHYYY??? Not Dobby! Why'd ya have ta take Dobby, J.K., WHY?!". Man, I really am weird. Ah well. Also, if you couldn't tell by the weird state of my eyebrows, I am currently growing them out. I'm lettin' those babies get as fuzzy and chunky as possible. Which SHOULD mean that I'm taking more time to fill them in a lil' bettah, but, come on ;), come on ;), this is me we're talking about. Dat wadn't gonna happen. Y'alls will just have to forgive their creepy state in these photos. On the plus side, after seeing them in these photos I decided I will fill them in so they don't look quite so creepy.

If you have been following along with this blog at all, then you know that I have a crazy-weird-fan-girl-status obsession with England. Don't ask me why because I couldn't really tell you. Although, admittedly two of my big reasons for being infatuated with the place are Pride&Prejudice and Harry Potter. Weird reasons, right? Anyway, when I saw this cardi at a bohme clearance sale I knew it HAD to be mine. HAD to be. Anyway, in the spirit of all things British I decided to pair it with my Big Ben London tee. Also, I figured "edgy" would be the rule of the day so I decided to top it all off with my go to AE high waisted skinnies and my biker booties. Also, whenever I wear this t-shirt all I can think of is those Revlon commercials that say, "Get the London look."

Much love!

While I Was Sleeping





You guys, I just realized why I'm so boring lately! It's because I've been writing my posts when I'm basically half asleep. In fact, I'm pretty sure a couple of the posts from the last month or so where written while I was sleeping! Seriously. There are definitely a couple of posts that I went back to look at and I thought to myself, "What the? When in the heck did I write that?" I need to sleep more. Also, work has just been going extra long these days. Since I have to stay till every customer has been helped, more often than not, these days that has meant staying past 6. I'm tirrrrud. I seriously cannot wait till I'm poolside in Vegas. My body is definitely getting desperate for a break! Anyone else feel me? Come on, ja feel me? Also, I'm a little turd. I'll go a good few weeks without indulging in any sweets, my skin will get all beautiful and clear, and then I go and give in and eat a cookie...or two...or three...or a hundred...what? Just kidding, not really a hundred, but I'll eat a few cookies and screw up the whole perfectly smooth and clear skin thing. So, yeah, I'm a turd. ;) I guess that's what astringent is for, right?

Sooooooooo, I shop way too much at Forever 21 and h&m. I need new stores, but it's hard to go elsewhere for things when F21 and h&m have such cheap prices and dang cute items. I'm starting to get myself to invest in the more expensive things, though, because the difference in quality is seriously astounding. Not to mention that if I invest in the better quality items they'll last longer! My first bigger investments where, prepare yourselves because you'll pass out once I tell you, drum roll please...two BETSY JOHNSON leather jackets! BETSY. FLIPPIN'. JOHNSON, guys. I love that crazy freak! Eek! I'm so excited! I'm gonna look like such a bad a$* in them! Too bad it's way too hot to wear 'em now. Oh well. I snagged them for a song at the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale. Anyway, this look today was inspired by another fellow blogger! I bet y'all can guess who! *side note* Did I just "y'all"? I must be asleep. There's no way I'd say that if I were fully conscious. ;) 

Much love!
