I got some flowers for you...



Ok, so I'm thinking this outfit is a little too... "girly" or perhaps a little too "flower power" for my taste. I don't even know why I got this skirt. I guess I just see all these floral things to wear, and it makes me want to go out and buy them. So many girls can pull off this look so well, I guess I just got jealous :/

The cream colored shirt has got some pretty cute victorian looking lace going on. I think I got it when I was 12 or something for an Easter outfit... I don't know why I didn't get rid of it, but now I can use it! The floral skirt was on clearance! Woo! As much as I wanna say it's from some place cool like Urban Outfitters, Forever21, the thrift store, I can't. It's from Target. Yes, Target. Who knew they could have some great looking stuff? The red belt I got at a garage sale. It's weird because I don't know which way is supposed to go forward. It's one of those really weird assessories that just perplexes you, and makes you feel really stupid because you don't know what the right way it. The other side is some pointy Wonder Woman esque thing... Don't ask.

I think I'm getting bored of taking pictures outside my house. Sure, it's better than my room, but the outside of my house isn't really that exciting. I don't have an amazingly cool backyard. It's just grass, weeds, and trees. I do however has this really cool old looking shed, but I haven't figured out where to put the camera for self timer. It's just grass that sits in front of it. Perhaps I shall bring a small card table out... Hopefully my neighbors don't think I'm a freak!

Yay! I have one new follower! She goes by the name Sharpie and her blog is called My Way. I really want to get more followers, because just having 5 makes me sound... pathetic? It's so hard to get people to follow you and get your name out there because there are SO many good fashion blogs out there. I have to make it so that mine sticks out, which will be hard because A. I don't go any cool places to blog about (Like Jane from Sea of Shoes is in Japan right now!), B. I know I don't have the cool street style of fashion that people like in blogs, and C. it's just hard! So if you are new to my blog and reading it, please follow me! I'll try not to disapoint!

You are now able to see my poor attempt to be a model! HIP HIP HORRAY!








Florals on the runway...



























And I thought I would show you my painting. It's a homage to VOGUE... I made it in the Fall maybe? I don't know, but I like how it turned out.

XOXOOXOOX.... I'll post something new soon!

what I wore today

Well hello everybody!

I know I havn't been writing in a while, but truth? I really don't think there are many of you out there reading this? If you are, please leave a comment!

This is what I wore to school today: Cardigan from a thrift store($8?) . Top from Forever21 ($17.80), and the jeans too (19.80). I normally don't spend that much money on clothes (fifteen and under is usually my limit), but it was spring break and I wanted to splurge!! haha. The converse are from the Converse Outlet ($19.99) . They are high top, double tongue, and very cool! I must say, my legs look really short in this picture. Yes, I know I already have short legs, and am constantly reminded of that. Maybe I just have not gotten a real good look at how short they really are... I have to add this last picture of my dear friend. She is infamously known at my school for wearing these ugly cargo pants that really don't suit her well. She is also skinny mini (21 inch waist?), and says it's hard to find clothes...I tell her all the time to go the H&M kids at the mall. But doesn she listen? NO! But it's ok, I still adore her. We were goofing around this morning, and I told her this looked like something the models would do in Vogue. She looked at me like she didn't know what I was talking about. I told her that now lots of models are doing these fabulous jumping photos that look so effortless. When I try doing jumping pictures, I look like a have a double chin and my braces are really shiney! Not attractive!

XOXO more soon.

Chanel Iman: One of my favorite Models

This is Chanel Iman. I must admitt, you all probably know about her, because she is so amazing. She is African American, but her mom is half Korean (which is so cool, because you don't see very many asian models out there now.)


Chanel was born in Georgia in 1989. The first time she walked the catwalk was the Fall/Winter 2006 Season. She walked for top designers like DKNY. She then modeled for other designers like Marc Jacobs, Valentino, Michael Kors, and Vera Wang.



In the Spring of 2007, she appeared with other models, Du Juan and Coco Rocha, in TIME Style & Disign.


In the May issue of American VOGUE in 2007, she also appeared with Doutzen Kroes, Caroline Trentini, Raquel Zimmermann, Sasha Pivovarova, Agyness Deyn, Coco Rocha, Jessica Stam, Hilary Rhoda, and Lily Donaldson as "The World's Next Top Models" Personally, I loved that issue, because it really showed the versitality of all these models. Of course, VOGUE was right because now you see these models all over the place!
Chanel also appeared with Karlie Kloss and Ali Micheal on Teen VOGUE. The three girls looked so pretty, it was only the second time TV has had models on their cover. Their first was Gemma Ward. I loved this issue, and I can remember looking at this more than once because the girls just looked to wonderful! The pictures were taken at the beach, and everything just looked so effortless!
