From Me To You.

Man! Let me tell you..last week was a rough one!

1.Got sick
2. No sleep & had to work an overnight shift
3. Still had an early shift that following day
4. No appetite..couldn't eat a full meal for 3 days.

But thankfully all is well now, and I can have some free time to do a posting!

Vanessa Mooney win!

Look at this beauty I won on Madeline 's blog!  This necklace is the first thing I've won like..ever. I enter giveaways just to amuse myself because I don't win shit.

So obviously I was definitely shocked when I got the email saying I won.

Here is the necklace!



Yeah..I'm stoked.


Happy Friday, have a great weekend!

She's Got A Way


Have you ever checked out this amazing online vintage shop called Tunnel Vision ?  If you haven't, well then go on the site and have your mind blown. 

I have been eyeballing this skirt for months and whenever I wanted to buy it, something always came up & I had to spend my money "wisely".  It's kind of big on me, but I'm determined to make it work, I mean come on!..It's perfect.

Bad Attitude

If you are awesome, you know that this blog post title is a Bad Brains song.

I cannot explain to you how loud I blast that song on my way to work somedays.

Now back to the outfit!

Velvet+Fringe+Kimono=perfection.















So let me tell you about this fringe kimono.  I got it at urban outfitters in Georgetown, original price $98, sale price...$14.99! Say whaaaaat?!  Of course I bought the one with the color roses & the black roses...duh.  Don't you love it when you stumble upon something magical?

Mind Eraser.

Don't you love it when you stumble upon something on ebay & then it manifests in your brain? All you can think about is hoping no one outbids you & then you cursing them out in your head when they do.  But then..you win!  Happy dance.

That was the scenario with this little gem. I'm constantly checking out this ebay store, and my eyes locked in on this beauty.  I think I set my max bid at like $50.  Yeah I was THAT pressed on winning this little guy.

An open love letter..to my favorite bloggers

This is an open love letter to my favorite bloggers out there.  I just want to say that I love you all!  From your personal style, to your funny videos, to your intelligent blog posts that actually require people to use their brains before leaving an ignorant comment(most of the times).

It's bloggers like you that give me inspiration to wear whatever I like & not worry about the constant looks I get(there are other reasons why I'm constantly stared at..but that's a whole other story).

For years I've constantly had this little voice in the back in my head that would be so concerned about what people think of me just based on my choice of clothing.  I think this past year or so I have gotten out of that rut.

I can honestly thank you guys because you've put the confidence in myself to "let my freak flag fly" & march to the beat of my own drum.  I've always had that mentality, but never followed through with it.  Now I could care less about the latest trend, and what was "so last year".

I live in a place where 99% of the population is all about the trends, and making fun of people who don't dress like "the norm".  Northface, UGGs, Forever 21 dresses, repeat.  A lot of people in this area don't experiment with their clothes, or wear a fist full of rings & velvet leggings.  If you do, you are looked at like you have 10 arms and 4 eyes.

To escape this constant uninspiredness(yes I made up a word) I go to your blogs. You guys inspire me to take more risks when it comes to my own wardrobe.  So this is my little thank you to you guys for being true individuals, good spirited, intelligent, beautiful & inspiring women!

(Here's a list of bloggers that seriously inspire me so much.. I am so thankful for their existence!)














Don't ever change!
