OOTD | Keeping warm (enough) in the Upper Midwest

Image
Quick snaps on this semi-sunny, semi-cloudy, and semi-chilly midwest day.  My Hair is finally growing longer! On Sunday I finally decided to go back to layers. Those are my two plants, since I'm not allowed to have animals.  All-Star Converses are always a good choice Vests keep you pretty warm in the midwest, at least until you actually NEED to wear a coat.  When you can't be cute, making ugly faces always works.  Enjoy the wonderful bi-polar days of autumn! 

OOTD | Midwest Chill

Image
Just a simple outfit for fall: Neutral top from Forever 21 with black jeggings from Bullhead, and I put my hair in a side-braid because I rarely ever do anything with my hair.  Too keep warm in the chilly midwest weather, I'm wearing this bright orange vest. The vest is Gap but honestly I got it from Goodwill  ✌ Gold rings Just one simple bracelet.  Stone layered necklace from Forever 21. Just wore my black combat boots too. 

OOTD | October weather

I do the most with the money I got. Most of the things I wear are either bought on sales or from thrift shops :)  Here's a quick little outfit for the fall weather that is here in Wisconsin:  Terrible picture quality, but basically it's a long dark navy blue shirt that has shoulder cuts :)  Of course, here in the upper midwest gets pretty chilly in the morning and nights, so here's a jacket a chose to match it. Just a very large light brown sweater that king of balances out the girly-ness of the outfit.    My hair is growing! Hooray! Jewelry always gives any outfit an edge ;) Keepin' it simple. I love collecting unique items from various little shops and flea markets! For me, the hardest thing about any outfit is picking shoes to go with it! Here are some $4 knock offs from Walmart ;D Enjoy all your fall outfits! <3

College | On those days when it's gloomy

Image
This weekend was just spectacular outside. Very warm, with a lot of sun and a cool breeze. But you know, with living....on the earth, the weather can be so unpredictable and ever-changing. I woke up in my bed today fairly freezing. In spite of spring, I urged myself that this was a good day to dress in bright colors. It definitely was!  I am definitely a fan of the trench coat. This one is navy blue and from Banana Republic. Cheers to an extraordinary blurry photo. Recently got the middle ring from Plato's Closet. Rings are so fun to find when thrift shopping! I really think that those beige sandals are just the most comfiest shoes.  It was quite a cold walk home, but the river is always nice to look at. The sun decided to come out later though at around 7 pm. Here was the view from my apartment balcony:  And one of my university's parking lot:

OOTD | Slightly Groggy and Wet Weather

Image
A simple outfit for a groggy, wet Sunday morning in midwest Aprils. Cardigan is from Free People and the white blouse is from BP at Nordstrom. Black jean-like leggings are Bullhead.  Necklace is from Forever 21. The only thing I don't like about it is that the two necklaces are attached. I'll probably make them into two separate necklaces soon.  I love this black floppy hat. I got it during last winter's Black Friday sales at the Mall of America.  Shoes are from JustFab. [Documenting for how my outfits might change over the years]

OOTD | Summer to Fall Thrift-Shopped Outfit

Image
I absolutely love thrift shopping. It gives you a way to find unique items and for a great price! What I love even more though, is styling everything after you buy them. Summer is sadly coming to an end, and it's back to school/ fall time. My absolute favorite season for styling because of all the fun layering there is to play around with. The weather in Wisconsin has been fairly chilly in the morning and humid in the day. Cardigans are a favorite for this time! Here's a bright summer-going-to-fall outfit composed of all things found at thrift shops, except for the shorts and rings): Cardigan : Savers - $7 Tank Top : HGM Bargain Center - $3 Shorts : Forever 21 sale - $5 Belt : Yard Sale - $1 Shoes : Savers - $3 Rings : Forever 21 and H&M (On Sale, and using Wrapp for H & M rings) - $1 Note: I'm so sad that Wrapp is no longer available anymore!
