that's sad

The Halloween party I was going to turned into less than 10 people, just hanging out, sans costumes. LAME-O!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah, so I didn't get to wear my Super Girl costume. What's the fun of dressing up if nobody else is? I don't care about people thinking I'm strange, because I am and I don't give a flying fandango what anyone thinks, but it just isn't fun to be the only one. It's just...awkward.

I wore this to lounge and watch extremely bad "scary" movies- Cursed, anyone?

I hope the rest of you had a more significant and substantial Halloween!

boo!

Happy Halloween! Everyone better be dressing up- can't wait to see all the pictures!

oh yes

Yup. I found a pair of fake(ish) Docs! AT TARGET. A.K.A. PARADISE. I was freakin' out when I saw them. Much cheaper than the originals at just $29, and they are so comfortable! Not too heavy, like the reals. Thank you to all who voted for what hue I should get- I unfortunately did not have a color option when it came to these! But, YAY!

envirosax

To my intense excitement and anticipation, I received this fantastic bag the other day:

Only because I have no better words to describe it:

Envirosax Greengrocer - a range of plain coloured ultra-strong polyester rip-stop bags, which also have a waterproof backing. In an array of delectable colours named after the foods we love, Envirosax Greengrocer is a solution for those who like the simple things in life. These lightweight polyester bags are waterproof and hold up to two plastic bags worth of groceries. Now we can feel good about minimizing our environmental footprint while carrying our organic produce in genuinely green fashion.

I love environmentally friendly items, especially when they are adorable! I can't wait to use this bag at Trader Joe's and get into the weekly drawing!!

holla atcha' girl

I bought the purple leggings and the purple top today at Forever 21. I also bought a leopard print tunic that is very similar to the zebra one, but I couldn't find it on the site. I also bought denim leggings and a black cardigan, also from Forever, also not online.

I've made a decision about the Docs- well, kind of. I'm definitely getting them. Now, I just need to pick a color. I put up a poll with some choices, and 2 people voted. I'm taking that one down, though, becuase I don't want patent- it won't age well! Docs look best super worn in, but patent leather looks ugly when worn in, so I'm just going to get a matte leather- I still want your votes! Please help me out; it will come back to you in awesome pictures! :)

ta dah!

I'll get some shots of my wearing them soon. They both turned out perfect; the pictures truly do not do any justice. Trust me, not my idiotic camera. The bleached pair did not rip well becuase they have elastic in them, and the decorated pair had zero elastic so the rips are fantastic! I can explain how I did everything if you would like, but most of it is self-explanitory. I can answer any questions, as well! Enjoy! I know I will!

I went to Nordstrom tonight and tried on a pair of Docs, so I would know what size I was if I was to order them online. I really liked them, except for one thing- the roundness of the toe. The pictures online really do not portray the true shape of the shoe.

It makes them look much harsher, and not as chic! Of course, I would get used to it and end up loving that aspect if I bought them and wore them for a while. But, does anyone have opinions on this? Do you like the roundness? Are the men's less round? Holla' 'atcha girl! I saw a pair at Wal-Mart (I was looking for a costume) that looked just like Doc Martens, but with buckles! I really liked them, except for the very round toe...I saw those before the real Docs, and I thought that was what made them grosser! HA! They were just $16, so I might just buy them- the buckles are a really nice touch, and who can beat $16?! Target has a similar pair as well. Maybe after I sleep on it I will decide what the hell I want to do....

Come on loves, give me some insight? Are my first instincts right; do I just not like them?!

super duper

I bought my Halloween costume last night- SuperGirl! It's really cute! I didn't feel like being creative, so I just bought a cliche costume. Whatevs.

Love this skirt. And these tights.
