Mobile Upload.


Seriously sorry for the lack of outfit updates.. I just have not had the chance to take any since it's been raining here and there, and it's difficult to get people to photograph them for me. SORRY! I just threw on some jeans that are Banana Republic given to me from my grandmother, a striped Forever 21 long sleeve shirt, black Mossimo blazer, black ballet flats from Charlotte Russe, and a red/orange scarf from H&M. Picture quality is absolutely terrible.. Anyways, had an open house for school today that my mom and I went to together. We ended up skipping out of the tour a little early for some shopping and frozen yogurt on Newbury Street instead. (SO worth it). I purchased an adorable maroon scarf and a red-orange blouse both from H&M that I'll be sure to post later tonight.

RJMH.

I'm stuck babysitting my little sister Rylie tonight, and she decided that she would like to make a guest appearance on my blog. Haha, I was editing pictures when she asked if we could use Photobooth for a bit. So if you're bored, here's some pictures to you ;-)






Thrift Thursday 5.



You've probably seen this ring before from previos posts, but this is a sterling silver spoon ring that I purchased from a flea market about 2 years ago. It was $22. The engraving isn't too distinct but I actually prefer it like that since I have a very detailed bracelet with a spoon detailing on it. I rarely ever take it off and I usually even get tan lines from it, whoops! :)

Long weekend.

Today's post is a little more on the personal level compared to my usual fashion posts. (There is a few articles of clothing I purchased at Target the other night, however). I spent the majority of my weekend spending time with friends and family. I had the day off of work on Saturday and was very productive. I got a few new books to read at the library. I'm starting off with Paper Towns by John Green. I continued my day with coffee, lunch and shopping with my wonderful father, and gathering ingredients to make dinner for Nick and myself. I made rattle snake pasta (which is somewhat like chicken alfredo with penne pasta, but with a little kick of jalapenos) followed by cupcakes for dessert! It turned out absolutely delicious! Sunday morning I worked and then took a long walk and had lunch with my friend Kasey who was home from college for the weekend. It was really nice being able to catch up. Here are a few pictures of what my weekend consisted of.


 I found this little box of tea bags while looking through my grandmothers cabinets gathering ingredients. I thought it was rather cute but I was too afraid to try to teabags inside, since it looked like it had aged quite a bit.


 $3 top, and $3 bottom!
 Over-the-knee socks: $2.50
 Navy crew neck and maroon v-neck long sleeve shirts: $8 each. (PERFECT for layering)
 Floral tank: $7

 This is actually a lot more purple then the picture shows. $4
Tanktop: $3
This picture is from my quick run early this morning. I woke up just in time to see the sky look absolutely beautiful. This picture gives the sky no justice as to how nice it really looked.

Thrifty Thursday 4.


I found this mannequin in a large dumpster at a yard sale about 2 years ago. It was completely covered in black and green mold, but my mom decided that she could definitely bleach it and make it look as good as new again. I paid $5, even though the people getting rid of it were willing to just throw it away. But they wouldn't let me take it for free. Oh well. Because it's older, the body frame is thicker than the mannequins sold today so I cannot use it for putting my own clothes on it. So instead, I use it for decoration and organize all of my necklaces on it.

There pictures were taken on Friday (a little late, I apologize). Nick and I spent the day in the city, taking pictures for his schoolwork, eating pizza, and roaming around. Th weather was perfect. After we came back to the suburbs, we took these pictures of the roof of the parking garage at the mall before continuing inside for a lovely dinner at Johnny Rockets. I got this skirt in the Target clearance section about 2 months ago. It's perfect for the fall weather that has so abruptly taken over. I kept the outfit simple with just black and white with a pop of turquoise. I didn't have an extreme amount of time to get ready after work on Friday so this was easy to just throw on and still look dressed up for the day!
