Some New Stuff!

By
Isn't getting new stuff great? Though for some reason new stuff it makes me wish I had time to thrift more often. Last time was over the summer in Illinois, but I got a lot of great things. I just love how inexpensive and unique thrifted clothes can be. Plus the whole sustainable aspect of it is great. But sometimes I just want to get new clothes. Especially for trendy things. Like this neon feather print shirt and the black skirt with mesh trim.

polka dot crop top & black skater skirt with mesh trim: forever 21
skull bracelet & spiked stud earrings: c/o persunmall
I really need to get some stuff done today. Like search for an internship for next spring. I really can't put it off any longer. I've been feeling pretty pessimistic about my career prospects once I get out of graduate school. The longer I'm in school the more I wish I'd had gone into a science track. I'm even worried I won't find an internship (which is required to get my degree and has to be with a "professional media company") since the job market is so crappy. Life struggles, you guys.

But anyway, are you guys having a good weekend so far?

I love getting new stuff! I find that it actually inspires me a bit with my older clothes too for some strange reason haha!

Good luck with finding an internship! I'm sure you'll do absolutely fine! :)

I feel like the closer we get to finishing school the more and more we're going to worry about getting a job or wishing we picked a different major... but whatever you go into, I believe that you do so for a reason!

These are such fun new goodies you got. I love that silver skull bracelet especially!

GAH-- I am so happy I found a blog catering to us shorties! Being 5'1" I feel like I see all of the model-esqu bloggers and I love their looks but a lot of them I can't rock. Glad to find your blog for new ideas =)

Yes! Getting new stuff is the best. I adore the feather top it is so perfect. I totally understand about the current job market. The only advice I can give you is to start early. Looking back, that's one thing I did wrong.

That bracelet is AWESOME. And girl, you're talented and intelligent, you will get an internship! Those are easier you know since they don't have to pay you :) But yes, the longer I'm in school, the more I realize...I should've picked something else. Oh, college.

Work Outfit: Light Blue Jersey Knit Dress and White Block Heels

By

I'm a big fan of what I call "pajama dresses," which are really just jersey knit skater dresses . They're comfortable enough to sleep in, yet can look 100% put-together if styled nicely. That's exactly what I did with this light blue dress California-based shop Tobi sent me to style. (Someone even asked me why I was dressed so nice at the dog park! I told them I just came from work, of course.) For the debut of my newest pajama dress, I added my silvery beaded Stella and Dot necklace and a pair of white block heel sandals from Forever 21. I actually bought the shoes back in December on sale and had to wait for it to warm up to finally wear them. Happily, they're comfortable enough to walk back and forth to work, which is really all I can ask in a pair of cheap shoes.  daydreaming skater dress : c/o tobi | shoes : forever 21 | necklace: stella & dot | sunglasses: forever 21 Check out more from Tobi:  shorts  |  jewelry  |  casual dresses ...

Botanical Fun

These pictures are from my outing to The State Botanical Garden of Georgia, which just so happens to be conveniently located about 8 minutes from my apartment. There were still a nice amount of flowers blooming so it was really pretty. I decided I needed to get more wears out of my pretty Steal the Game Show dress from Modcloth so I took some inspiration from other bloggers and wore it as a skirt! I actually really liked how this outfit turned out. Plus it was easy to walk around in all day because I wore nice, comfy Keds. dress (worn as a skirt): Modcloth.com blouse, belt, bag: thrifted cardigan: ann taylor loft; thrifted shoes: keds sunglasses: kohls earrings: forever 21 I quite enjoyed my brightly colored nails. They're China Glaze Papaya Punch with an accent nail of Electrify from the Capitol Colours collection. I've been loving having the whole Capitol Colours collection. Especially since it's Hunger Games themed. If there...

Don't Dream It

...be it! I love a good performance of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. We went to see the live shadow cast Lips Down on Dixie perform at the Plaza Theatre in Atlanta. It was awesome, as always! This is Jeanie and her friend Leslie before they got their lipstick Rocky virgin V's on their foreheads. Leslie even got the honor of holding the criminologist's book during a part of the show. Pretty ballin'. Butt shot! Yes, those are heels I have on with leopard print pajamas. It was a take on Columbia in the touch-a touch me scene. The real pj's are stripes, but this is what I had! I did have the mickey ears and crazy makeup though, so it counts. [How fun would it be to wear one of those costumes for Halloween?] I always enjoy this show. I don't think I could keep the smile off my face. It's just so fun! Sometime soon I'll go back, for sure. If you're in the area you should definitely check them out. They put on a great sho...
