makeup obsessed

In this situation, the outfit is secondary to the makeup. Partly because I tried new makeup and wanted to capture it, and partly because my outfit was a boring one that I sat around the house in. I wore it again today to lunch with my mom, and tried to replicate my makeup, but it never comes out the same twice. I was going for a vintage, Dita Von Teese type look.

Blending Into The Scenery

I had major cabin fever yesterday, so I was glad to go eat dinner, even if it was at Taco Mac. We went to our friends house across the street after that, and I was told that I was "very quiet and blending into the couch" haha. When I got home and took outfit pictures, I had to agree. I don't particularly like this outfit, once I photographed it. Oh well, I'll jazz up that sweater better next time!

Errand Day

I wore this to go shopping for groceries at Aldi, where my roommate works. I purposefully bought lots of healthy things so I can lose the 5 pounds I've gained, but then turned around and went to 5 Guys for lunch! I am so in need of motivation.

Girly Dates

I went on a few girly dates this past week, and of course documented my outfits as I went.

This was at Olive Garden, with my friends Ellee and Chelsea. My boyfriend was there too, but he's as good as one of the girls :)

The day before, I had a wonderful girly lunch at the English Rose with my mom, my twinsie (Jaz), and Ellee.
My outfit and makeup were rather rushed, but I did put together Ellee's outfit, too (minus that thing on her wrist lol) out of my clothes! So I'll take credit for that...haha :)

This one was me trying to wear as much color in winter! I hate wearing black every day, but i tend to get into that rut in the winter quite easily.

for update purposes only!

i have decided (yes i realize i do this a lot) that i am officially back into style/outfit blogging! i am inspired by my twinsie, and i plan to take outfit pictures every day and post them, even if no one wants to see them :) anyway, these are some outfits from the past few months. the pictures aren't that great for most of them, but from now on i will use the tripod and not my phone! haha. these are slightly out of order, forgive me.
