Summer fashion trends 2013

Image
Hi hi!  I'm back again and as promised, I'll be writing about some fashion trends that I've observed this year.  :3 I'm sorry if this is kind of a let down for readers with the irony of me writing about summer fashion trends at the very end of the summer.  We can all blame it on my procrastinating nature. xD Oh well, at least we'll be somewhat prepared for next year.  The summer fashion this year was very nice and I have a feeling that there won't be any drastic changes for next year. There were a lot of different types of clothing brought to light this summer and I'll be talking about each different type and how they appear to be worn. Disclaimer: All images are from tumblr. Bandeau & Bustier Tops Bustier tops If one doesn't mind showing off a little bit of belly, these tops are super comfy for the summertime.  They're minimal, stylish, and a great way to keep cool.  They can be worn under a sheer tank top, shirt...

I LOVE thrift stores!!!

Hello again~!  I procrastinated on this blog for about a week so when I talk about it, just keep in mind that this happened about a week ago.  ;) *Flashback to one week ago...* Today was pretty hot but I braved the weather and drove out anyway in my car without AC. XD It was somewhat torturous because I got lost and drove around in circles for almost an hour trying to find the damn place. lol The reason I wanted to go out today is because I was in dire need of a new black cardigan for work.  I didn't want to go spending the average $10 for a cardigan though so instead of going to the mall, I thought, "Hey!  Why not go to a thift store?" So off I drove.  First I dropped off my sister and I decided to take her all the way to her workplace because I 'thought' it would be on the way to the nearest Goodwill.  I was wrong hence me driving in circles.  Dx But I finally made it there after my memory decided to kick in and I was determined to find so...

Me and my lazyass self + clothing haul

I've been sooo lazy, I don't even know why...  I've really gotta get off my ass and do something!  I thought writing in this blog might get my brain motivated to study. I still have one class I'm going to have to finish so that means study, study, study for the upcoming exams. Well, at least I have something to be proud of today since I cooked some miso soup and rice. ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ I recently ventured out to my local mall and stopped by the only store I visit, Forever21.  I was so happy because I finally found a couple of dresses for the spring to wear with my cardigans!  The bottom two are the dresses and the top are spring blouses.  Not only that, but I finally took the plunge and purchased a pea coat on yesstyle.com for around $68 total (shipping included). I'm quite happy with it and glad I took the opportunity to buy it while it was around 30% off.  During the holidays, I saw something like this and it was around $72 without a discount....

Forever21 has awesome deals and questionable policies

I went out to the mall with my sister on Sunday.  It was one of those days where we thought it would be a good idea to hang out together since she's rarely off from work.  That workaholic. xD When we got there, I stopped by one of my favorite clothing stores, Forever21. The store was actually written as XII Forever so I suppose you could call it an extended version of Forever21 with much more selection. I usually shop on YesStyle.com and that's where I get a little bit of perspective on prices.  When I see a plain thin sweater shirt, my limit is under $10, depending on how substantial the material is.  Here's an example: For a thin sweater, I'm not gonna fork out $22.  I've also shopped excessively at Ross over the years so I know that thin-material clothing isn't going to retain its good appearance for long. So I walk into the store and I see that it's sectioned off into different color and style schemes.  One side may have flowery and femini...
