Blended

Lately my life has been a blur of working on finals and rewatching Girls. As you can imagine, that hadn't left much time for taking blog pictures. I'm going to try to be better about that. Bet you've never heard that one from a fashion blogger before! 

Despite the stressors of school and the relationship turmoil among Hannah and her pals, I'm feeling pretty optimistic. I am planning on moving back to Alaska with my wonderful boyfriend after graduation (which is only 8ish months away)! Also, this term I took a class called Writing for Fashion and though I hated actually going to the class, I loved blending my love of words and fashion. I might see about creating a career for myself somewhere between the worlds of writing and style, but of course, that might just be my plan this month. 

I guess I should say a bit about my outfit. I love this top but struggled with it because I don't really like wearing just tank tops under things and typically loathe wearing bras. However, this bra from Victoria's Secret was super easy to wear underneath it, because the light colors blended in just enough but not too much. Also trying the whole literal-boyfriend-boyfriend-jean thing again, and one thing I can say is that it's super convenient to have such deep pockets.

Everyday Makeup!



Hey everyone! Today was a super blustery snowy day, so I decided to take the opportunity to do something I've been wanting to do for a while! I made a video, showing my go-to make up routine! I hope you enjoy it. Thumbs up and subscribe and I might make more! (Tempting, isn't it?)

Just Don't Give a Damn


 I felt like this outfit was too much in some ways, but today I just didn't care. I've been feeling very inspired lately, which is a feeling that I regret to report has been sparce in recent months. I'm in a "just don't give a damn" mind set, and this kimono was so comfortable. I came out of my room this morning (er, afternoon) and Matt said "You look like a hippie." Usually that's all I need. I didn't want to look to "bohemian" though, because it's not really my style. I mean, bohemian is part of my style, what I mean is that one thing isn't my style. I don't like looking totally bohemian, or totally preppy, or totally punk, but I like mixing those things up. Amplifying one word for the look, for me, feels really forced and serious. That being said, I thought converse were the perfect shoe to push my easy look to it's ultimate effortless edge. The result was an outfit, much to my surprise, that I felt really confident in. 

What do you feel most confident in?
Kimono - Nordstrom | Slip - Free People | Purse - Aeropostale | Shoes - Converse 

Eyes - Urban Decay "Naked Basics" | Nails - Butter London's "Slapper"
