Lace, Stripes, & Color

This is another attempt at me taking my own photos. It was hard! Plus, it was super hot outside. I think my camera over heated. Moving on, I'm back in DC. Well, North Virginia, DC just sounds better to me. I got here Sunday and I've been doing absolutely nothing since I've been here. I did make an earring but besides that, just been in the bed counting down the days until I leave.

Classes for my new school start July 11th, so I'm super excited. My birthday is July 7th, so I'm assuming it's going to suck. I've never had an awesome birthday before except for my 16th, so I'm not trippin'! I just want me some Jefferey Campbell Lita's and I'll be alright. I'm also getting an apartment instead of staying in the dorms and this will be my first. My mom has been looking for places and I think we found one. So many exciting things coming up! 

top & jewelry-forever 21, skirt-thrift store, shoes-ross

The skirt I'm wearing is from the thrift  store and my sister actually got it for me. I definitely got my family into thrifting. They all went together while I was still in Florida. I meant to put the floral platform wedges I'm wearing in my recent haul post but I forgot. I got them at Ross for $18.99. It was love at first site! I'll probably be doing a DIY for the earring I made, so be looking out for that. I'm also wearing a new necklace that I just got from forever 21. It's a huge cross and I love it!!!

Here's what the outfit looks like on...

Forever 21 & Thrift Store Haul

I went to forever 21 a week ago and the thrift store this pass weekend. Forever 21 is like the only store I shop other than the thrift store which I'm sure you guys have noticed already. I love it! They have all the latest trends for affordable prices. Yes, I'm very into trends. A lot of people always try to claim they're not into trends like it's a bad thing. I kind of think that's impossible to say you're not into trends. They're hard to avoid being it's the latest trend so it will be EVERY WHERE!  I think you're going to own at least one trendy item. Unless you don't shop often, then I could see how that would be true. Anyway, just my opinion. 

I tried a store that I usually don't go to. It was the Goodwill. The store of course is not new and I have shopped at a good will before but this one was in Orlando and I haven't been to one there yet. I hated it! It was way to high and didn't have a good selection. I still got something though. Then, I decided to go to my fav. place, the salvation army. It never disappoints. 

"Forever 21 Haul"

Tribal print skirt. Love the shape of it. That's what made me purchase it.

Green tribal print shorts. Love the ruffles at the end. Thought these were something edgy to add to my wardrobe.

Grey romper. Really cute and comfortable. So many ways to wear rompers, I love them.

Maxi dress w/flower print. My first maxi dress. I don't know what took me so long to purchase one.

My favorite buy! Abstract print dress. It's so beautiful! 

A simple racer back tank. Need more of these. 

A pair of readers. Been wanting a pair for forever and a day. My fav. style of glasses.

Glasses on a necklace! 

"Thrift Store Haul"

Tribal print blazer

Lavender shorts and hot pink belt. I only own three belts and none of them have color. So, I was very happy to pick this one up.

High waist pants. I planned on doing a DIY w/these but I'm not sure yet. I kind of like the way they fit but I'm leaning towards cutting them.

Cute spring/summer color jacket. It's pretty heavy so it's actually too hot to wear out but something I'd take w/me when I know I'm going to be in a cold building.

More belts!

Well, that's all. I'll be posting a video soon so you guys can see what the clothes look like on.
