Grungy








Song of the day: "Waste" by Foster the People.
Quote of the day: "Our eyes are placed in front because it's more important to look to the future than the past."
Yesterday was a lot of fun. My friend and I went to my middle school's festival thing and it was a blast! It was great seeing old friends and teachers. I miss everyone.
This outfit is my take on grunge, adding my own flair to it. It's totally chill. I made this headband when we went on a field trip to Aquarena Springs over the summer. It's cattail grass!
Ah, I'm up to my neck in written analysis and lab reports. It's crazy.
I hope everyone has a great weekend. Don't forget to go to church tomorrow! God bless.
Ayer fue muy divertido. ¡Mi amiga y yo fuimos al festival de mi secundaria y fue lo maximo! Fue genial ver a mis amigos y maestros viejos. Extraño a todos.
Este look es mi toma en grunge y le puse mi toque. Es relajado. Hice esta diadema cuando fuimos a Aquarena Springs este verano. ¡Esta hecha de pasto!
Tengo muchisima tarea. Es una locura.
¡Ojala que todos tengan buen fin de semana! ¡No se les olvide ir a misa mañana! Que Dios los bendiga.

Your Highness



Song of the day: "Pause" by Pitbull.
Quote of the day: "Do I turn left when nothing is right, or do I turn right when there's nothing left?"
Highness, galore! Complete with a somewhat Elizabethan collar. I'm reading Julius Cesar right now, actually. And I don't understand a word of it. (: My aunt sent me these shorts over the summer. They're so vintage-y.
Anyway, church was awesome today! I hope everyone's Sunday ends well.
By the way, my mom says I should wear harem pants to our 80's dance..?

P.S. I saw Captain America this weekend (it was awesome). So now I've been inspired to wear 40's clothes tomorrow. Yes!

Nothing That Is So, Is So




Song of the day: "Mowgli's Road" by Marina & the Diamonds
Quote of the day: "You can't please everyone every single time." -Lorenzo Hernandez
I'm sorry I have, like, no life anymore. BUT, I'm really happy at my high school, so that's good.
This outfit is totally chill and I love it. The shirt is from our Twelfth Night play last year. We ordered them from American Apparel. I got the pants from Juicy when we went to the outlets in February. They ended up costing $20-$30. Extreme Couponing, right here. I got the shoes on the same trip and they're probably my favorite pair.
Friday we're having a dance! It's like our homecoming since we don't have one. The theme is 80's so I'll definitely post pictures of the crazy outfit I come up with that'll probably include neons, suspenders, Converse, and crazy scarves.
Yesterday was so much fun! I went with my family to see a play, The Jungle Book, which influenced our song of the day. And tonight I'm going to the movies with some friends so that should be fun!

Blocking Color






Song of the day: "Americano" by Lady GaGa.
Quote of the day: "Love doesn't hurt. Rejection hurts. Love is just pure happiness."
The reason I haven't posted in so long is because I have zero downtime. I literally spend every second doing homework. High school's tough. My apologies.
I love this outfit! It's bright and perfect for the ridiculous heat. I bought the shorts at a thrift store and the shirt  used to be my mom's. My sister gave me these shoes since they didn't fit anymore. She's nine. It's so sad. Anyway, the look is all about bright colors, obviously. Even the socks!

Neutrals




Song of the day: "Girls" by Marina & the Diamonds.
Quote of the day: "Others have seen what is and asked why. I have seen what could be and asked why not." -Pablo Picasso
I wore this for my brother's birthday dinner a few days ago! It was a lot of fun.
My red pants arrived! And I bought a black blazer and colored shorts which means I just crossed three things off my wishlist!!
I'm so excited to start school. This year is going to be amazing, and even more with incredible clothes, hair, and makeup. Bring it on.
The only thing I need to buy for school now is a backpack... I hope everyone has a good "hump day"!

Dreaming Is Free




Song of the day: "Looking Up" by Paramore.
Quote of the day: "If you don't know, don't judge."
Hey! I love this outfit. My sister made the headband at this summer program. The shoes are hers too! Her foot is bigger than mine now, so I'll be keeping all the shoes she currently has, since I've been a size 6 for a few years now.
Back to school shopping has begun! My sister and I dragged my parents to Forever 21 and got two shirts, which I'll post eventually. She got leopard print jeggings which almost fit me, but don't. I looked for some red jeans but couldn't find any so I went online shopping instead! I found some from Hot Topic. Currently, I'm looking for a bag for school.I have three options so far!
My aunt mailed us a box a few days ago. Guess what was there for me! High-waisted shorts! (Not the ones pictured. My mother got me those.)
I hope everyone has an amazing weekend!

Clear Lake





Song of the day: "Little Lion Man" by Mumford and Sons.
Quote of the day: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." -Albert Einstein.
Hello lovelies! I got home from Houston/Galveston Island last night. It was a blast! I went with my dad, brother, and sister (she's in the first and last pictures). In Houston, we went to NASA, which was mind-blowing since I've always been fascinated by outer space and am a complete science nerd. At Galveston Island, we went to the Moody Gardens Aquarium which was stunning. We got to touch sea stars (starfish is a common misconception because sea stars aren't fish)! After that, we went to the beach. I'd never actually been to a Texas beach but it's not ugly like everyone says! And now my back is sunburned. All in all, our vacation was educational but still a party.
My mom bought this shirt for herself but it didn't fit so she gave it to us. My sister claimed it but let me borrow it for the trip. It's really thin: perfect for the Texas sun. The shorts are my go-to denim shorts.
So the rest of my summer consists of doing sweet nothings which is fine by me.

Crazy But You Like It


Song of the day: "Set Fire to the Rain" by Adele.
Quote of the day: "He and I had an office so tiny that an inch smaller and it would've been adultery." -Dorothy Parker
Hey guys! This was taken with the fancy schmancy camera at my middle school which my friend and I had the honor of playing around with. Hence this picture.
So I should be in Houston about now. My dad  took our car yesterday to get checked. When he picked it up it smelled really bad and then it just stopped. So he took it back this morning and he's still there. And I'm still here.

Look Like a Girl






Song of the day: "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler.
Quote of the day: "I asked God to keep me away from my enemies and I started losing friends."
Sorry I took so long to post! But now that I'm done with my engineering program, hopefully I'll have more time to post.
My grandpa is in town! We're so lucky to have him here.
Sad story: I went to Goodwill the other day and bought a long skirt (it's one of the things on my list; it was brown). When it came out of the wash it had two holes! I was so sad. Then my mom and sister just ripped it more. An hour later, I find my sister wearing it.

Make Love, Not War




So this is pretty much what I look like everyday. Just kidding, but some variation of this. The bag is so sick! My mom bought it at a garage sale from someone who bought it in India. I love it. I use it everyday as my backpack. I almost feel like I abuse it since I stuff it with notebooks, papers, folders, books, etc. (Did you know that et cetera is a commonly used Roman word? I found that out reading a 1997 National Geographic today!) So yeah! This bag is pretty great. It's so hippie.
I think I've found my niche in photography. I guess I'll just take my pictures here from now on. Especially when it's 100+ degrees outside and I value my life.
I don't know what it is, but this is my go-to white shirt. You know, when you're picturing an outfit in your head and it includes a white shirt? This is totally what I think of.

P.S. I'm pumped for my haircut tomorrow! It's just going to be a bunch of layers and craziness. It'll fit me well.

Men in This Town








Yaaay, I'm back! I don't really have much time to blog. But I somehow do it anyway!
Life's pretty good right now. I'm taking an engineering program all summer! It's not necessarily fun but I'm learning a lot and it gives me something to do instead of being a loser at home. I got an A+ on my first semester! I'm making my daddy proud. You know, at first, I didn't think I could actually get an A+ (98.00 and above!) but if I really try hard I can.
Enough of the corniness. Let's talk fashion!
I loveee this outfit. It's totally menswear (not that men wear flared jeans, but you get my point). Sure, I get stares, but that means you just noticed me! So it works out pretty well. I was actually going to throw the jeans out years ago, since I've had them for like 4 years? It's both sad and good that they still fit. Here's to never growing anymore.
I'm getting a haircut Sunday!! Nothing drastic, just an inch off and a lot of layers. I hope it looks good!

Make Your Own Lake; Let it Flow


Ahh my internet is back on! So I'll be posting often again!
So one day, my sister and I were bored and just went outside and took pictures for like an hour. It was fun! I'm enjoying this shirt.

Juxtapose


These pictures make me laugh! Juxtapose is a word my eighth grade teacher taught me. Doesn't it mean like opposites or something? I like it.

Sorry for Party Rocking


I wore this a while ago, except with jeans. The wedges don't exactly fit me, but I love them ! They're my mom's. Anyway, I'm obsessed with Party Rock Anthem; I listened to it like 2 seconds ago.

Underground


I cut this shirt myself! I'm really proud of it, ahaha. I don't think I'd ever be allowed out of my house wearing this. Ever. But I still love it!
