Caffeine Does Miracles


blazer: mom's; jeans: F21; sweater: F21, scarf: urban outfitters; bag: aldo accessories; necklace: aldo acc.
Today I was practically falling asleep during most of my classes, until we got to go to the library for a project. I'm finally awake by now, thanks to my coffee ice cream. Yum. I suggest Columbian Coffee by Turkey Hill for the coffee lovers.[it's got such rich taste!] As I was saying..we got to use the computers and I was thrilled to check my email, since everything else seems to be blocked by the school. Apparently Blogger is. But I really enjoyed getting the "New comment from .... on Blogger!". So I hope you guys are enjoying the blog =]
Anyways it got pretty chilly today, so I opted for my mom's old blazer. It was a bit oversized, but I'm thinking of maybe tailoring it[it looks too huge unless I roll the sleeves up] I don't do it myself, since I'm no expert on sewing or anything technical. My brain's mostly on the creative side. Anyone know how much it'll cost to get it tailored?
I couldn't seem to stay away from my fringe scarf this week. It just makes any outfit look better. I also ventured to the mall to return these tights I got at F21, since I didn't realize how sheer they were until I got home. So I'm hoping to get some knit ones at H&M soon. I also saw the perfect cardigan that I wanted from there today..so I'm hoping to take my mom along with me when I go there..*wink**wink* I've been semi confused about where I put my shoelaces for my gray converses.. Yes, how does a girl lose shoelaces may you ask? Well I took the white ones out and put in a different color, but I got bored of it and now I'm not wearing them until I find the originals. I'm getting more forgetful by the day.

Attractions

I've been feeling more and more attracted to Zac Posen's flowy fabrics and silhouettes. Very pretty and feminine. I saw a lot of sheer and delicate whites. For me right now, I'm more into monotonious colors, not really feeling pops of color yet. Probably because it's fall and winter will come soon after. Maybe I'll change my mind then.

I can not wait until the weekend. I'm trying to save my money and splurge it at H&M soon, especially on my gray cardigan. I need it. A new handbag wouldn't hurt either.

Here's my to-buy list:
  • gray knit tights[the warmer the better]
  • that gray cardigan
  • new handbag; preferably one I saw at h&m, burgundy color
  • another full skirt. i can't help myself.
  • some vintage jewelry or vintage inspired
  • shoes..

wearing: scarf, urban outfitters; cardigan: tjmaxx; skirt: american rag at macy's; tank: wet seal; belt: secondhand; bag: h&m; mag: teen vogue


Hm not much to say today, except for that I got four mosquito bites while taking these pictures. I was out for about 20 minutes, and I was wearing tights. SOMEHOW, I got 4 mosquito bites on my legs. It's probably a sign. I found this month's teen vogue was a bit lacking.. I didn't see much that inspired me. I need to get some new ideas for my sketches. Something new and fresh. Too bad other designers have already thought of it.
