Verticals & Horizontals

Oxfords, Goodwill $4. Such a steal!

Love love love these shoes. 

I scored them about 2 or 3 summers ago, when oxfords were still pretty obscure footwear.

So obscure, they sat in my closet for a long time because I was baffled with how to style them.

Anyways, I've since found replacements for them, only out of fear of wearing them to shreds.

I must have been blessed by the gods of thrift that day because I found a hoard of shoes for myself. 

Someone with an awesome shoe collection (in my size) must have donated to Goodwill.

Ah, that rarely happens...which only makes it that much more amazing when it does!

 I only look moody because I just woke up. Promise.
Besides, this is about the outfit right?
Plus, I don't want to accidentally make a duckface.

The semester's quickly winding down. Too quickly.

I'm having to juggle pending deadlines in academia with adult matters, like utilities.

It's stressful, but come summertime...I know it will all be worth it!

Let's just hope I make it.

Until next time, ♥.

Grungy Stripes and Roper Boots

Mauve Jumper, H&M in Spain//Striped Blouse, Goodwill//Boots, Ebay//Belt, Wolfe Street
Clothespin necklace, Hidden Treasures//Leopard Print Scarf, Savers

The weather around here has become depressingly wet and gloomy.

Not exactly the best combination for thoughtful wardrobe choices!

Anyways, I wore this last Friday to a Big Boi and Yelawolf concert.

The boots meant I was more than prepared to kick anyone that tried to get past me. 

(I mean...I didn't want to get my poor feet stepped on.) 

Fortunately, The Boy kept me safe.

I loooooove this clothespin necklace. 

It actually works! 

You can usually spot me absent-mindedly clamping it onto my bottom lip...but not for very long. 

It really starts to hurt! Then I wake up.

I also wore this to Starr's sister's moving sale. I picked up some great goodies for only 10 bucks!!!

Ah, I love a good bargain.

Be prepared for my transition from the daily beanie into the daily headscarf.

What can I say? My head feels naked if I don't have something adorning it!

Until next time, ♥.
