~Sequins and Ruffles~

Hey Guys! I am going to apologize now. I know that I haven’t posted in a while, but I was incredibly busy this past week. Also, I was lacking a stable Internet connection.  If you don’t know I am from an incredibly small country town in the middle of nowhere, and this is where I spent spring break. Although it is peaceful with beautiful scenery… there is NO INTERNET! But with the help of a few friends and lots of pesky cousins, my hands were full. Surprisingly without Internet the week passed by rather fast, and last night I was devastated to remember that I had school today.

Usually each of my outfits have some kind of central theme, but since I was barley awake this morning and I have spent the last week relaxing… I decided to go for something a bit for comfy and free flowing. Today I wore my comfiest pair of boyfriend cut jeans, a purple tank top with cascading ruffle, a silver sequined toms and baby blue socks with kites.  

The first day back form spring break wasn't as bad a as I thought it was. Although everyone was groggy, tired and seemed to be missing freedom as much as I do. But, at the end of the day school was the place that I seemed to be missing the most.

Cancer Awarness Week

Hey Everybody! Its Monday and you know what that means, Time to PROCRASTINATE! But, seriously this week is quite special. It is Cancer Awareness week. A week where people around the globe can spread awareness about cancer. To do this, my school is having a different theme for each day to highlight a different type of cancer. This is  something that I hold Dear to my heart. Some of my family members have died from cancer, and recently  one of my classmate Oscar Gregorio was diagnosed with Leukemia. We Miss You Oscar!

Today’s theme was Purple. I was in luck, because not only does purple look excellent against my skin tone, but I had the perfect purple outfit. Today I featured a purple racer back tank top with chiffon around the collar, my cropped trench coat , blue skinny jeans, and last but not least my glittery purple converse.

Thousands of people are affected by cancer every single day. Even if we may not be able affect the cancer itself, we can help the people in need , and show support. Even if the act is as simple as dressing up to spread the word.

The Land of Leather

First off, let me start out by Introducing our four guest models who “willingly” let me dress them up: Stacey “Jack” McQueen, Destiny Jackson, Douglas Tran, and Miss Van. And if everything goes perfectly, they will be joining us again for another amazing showcase. Nothing would have been possible without them. 

Welcome to the wonderful world of LEATHER. Leather is one of the most versatile and commonly used materials besides the basic cotton. It is found on shoes, furniture, inside cars, and in fashion. I apologize to all of you who are vegetarian/vegan who do not condone leather being worn, but Stacey is wearing an animal-free vegan suede vest. I have no idea how I thought of or came across those amazing pieces, but I knew when I saw them that they had to be seen. Rain, Fog, Sleet, or Snow LEATHER is the way to go.

Douglas is wearing a pair of sleek leather pants that bring out his inner cool cat. At first he refused, but he soon warmed up to them, literally. Those pants are HOT!

 Destiny is wearing a long leather skirt, which has been fitted to her as a dress. She is the shy and bashful young creature that is just coming to terms with her edgy side.

Stacey “Jack” McQueen is wearing her own version of a VEGAN Suede vest which features many zippers and secret pockets. If you can’t tell by looking at her, she is not to be messed with.

Finally, Ms. Van is wearing a sleeveless leather top. She is too cool for school and she will prove it to anyone who gets in her way. Unfortunately, Ms. Van an aspiring teacher will be leaving us shortly to go off and study with the paste-eaters and the bed-wetters. But either way, we will Miss You Ms. Van!
