What I Wore: The best jeans

Outfit Details:
Top: Forever 21
Jeans: Forever 21
Shoes: Thrifted
Belt: Kohl's
Bandana: Walmart

Like I said in my earlier outfit post, I originally posted this on the 4th of July, but I decided to re-post it later because I had a much better outfit suited for that day! Anyways, I still love this outfit!

I just recently bought these jeans from Forever 21, and let me tell you, I am in loveee. I have an extremely hard time finding jeans that fit, because my thighs are bigger than normal in proportion to my hips, so I can never find a pair that get over my thighs, but aren't loose at the hips. But these fit great! Plus, they are sort of a mid-rise, so if you yank them up high enough, they look sorta high waisted! Well, that may be because I am super short, I don't know if they do that for everyone, haha!

I hope you all have a wonderful Monday!

Friday Finds!

Cat Versus Human
Of course I love the Cat Versus Human comics, but this one is one of my favorites, because it's so true! I feel like everyone who owns a cat thinks their cat is the prettiest (even though it isn't true, because mine actually is the prettiest). See what I mean?
Uncovet
How cute are these pinwheel earrings? I can't wait until I get my earlobes pierced again (they're gauged, if you didn't know) so I can wear pretty earrings like these along with my plugs!
Little Doodles
I absolutely love this little bird illustration from Little Doodles. It's so damn cute!
 This is my ruler and notepad tattoo. I believe that tattoos can be used for functionality as well as memory. I’m a designer, so I use the ruler for buttons, zippers, and trim widths. Usually the notepad has an address or to-do list on it. :) 
FYeahTattoos on Tumblr
This person got a notepad tattoo on her wrist for to-do lists, and a ruler on her finger to measure things she's designing. What practical tattoos! I actually think it would be really cool to get a "to-do list" tattoo!
Hogwarts Gryffindor Student Costume - Swing Top - Shirt ONLY
RaeGun on Etsy
If I ever have a daughter, she will probably wear this 24/7! How cute are those ruffles on the butt?

I have been longing to go the beach lately, and this lake looks absolutely perfect! Look how clear the water is! According to Pintrest: "This is in Northwestern Montana, USA. The water is so transparent that it seems this is a quite shallow lake. In fact, it's very deep." Someone take me there, now!

Well, I hope you are having a fabulous holiday weekend! 

What I Wore: 'Merica!

Outfit Details
Dress: Target
Belt: Thrifted
Collar Clips: DIY
Headband: Forever 21
Shoes: Charlotte Russe

Happy 4th of July everyone! I'm not sure how many noticed, but I did have a different outfit posted this morning, but after I got dressed and photographed this outfit, I knew I had to post it for today! (The other outfit I'll repost later :)) 

I feel so festive in this! Originally, I only had the belt on, so I didn't have any blue in my outfit, but I threw together these collar clips out of a pair of my mom's earrings, and I am absolutely in love with them. (I'm thinking of doing a tutorial on how to make these clips out of any type of earring, would anyone be interested? It's super easy!)

Well I should be off! I have lots of festivities to enjoy: a flea market, barbeque, and of course, fireworks! I hope you all have a happy (and safe!) 4th of July!
