Style Musings: Never Have I Ever

Never have I ever thought I would love flatforms. Whenever I saw them, I always thought they were big and clunky. They are big and clunky, in a wonderful '70's way. I also have small feet, so I thought that flatforms would make my feet look big. But I am converted! I love them! Flatforms have the height of a heel/wedge, but the comfort of a flat. I love being able to look my family in the eye! (I'm the shortest, and the oldest child of three!)

I wore my green BDG jeans and brown Zara tee. The Zara tee has a wonderful zipper detail in the back. I threw on my velvet vintage Ralph Lauren blazer. I couldn't stop touching myself! It's so soft. I like wearing blazers in spring because my school's building is so bipolar. In some rooms, I'm sweating, but I'm freezing in others. And since it's still pretty cool outside, I need to have something to cover up with. I want warmer weather.

To reflect the color of the shoes, I wore a heart necklace. I don't know where it's from. My sister let me have it.

I also wore my studded Gap belt to keep my pants up. I love the combination of these colors.

The blazer has my first two initals! It was meant to be!

This pair of flatforms are by the brand Born. The shoes are very comfortable, and have a little extra arch support. I love the color, which is perfect for spring.

I wear my heart on my sleeve. Well, on my neck.

Style Musings:Say Hello To My Little Friend

Did I say how much I love spring? Yes I love spring. I love the robins. I love the flowers. I love the warm sun. But I especially love the ladybugs! This particular ladybug was my grandmothers, and I love him. He adds a little whimsy to my look today.

This ladybug is crawling up a brown Zara tee, having conquered the bright violet Forever 21 pants. On my feet are Forever 21 floral flats. I really love these. I made them a little more comfortable by putting wads of electrical tape inside. I'm so ghetto.

I tied a vintage hot pink scarf onto my bag to bring in the colors in the shoes. I actually think it looks really cute!

As much as I love this look, I feel it's missing something. I think it's the blazer. Grey is an all-right color. But I think this look needs more color. I think I need a pale pink blazer. And bright orange lipstick. The pink blazer would tie in the shoes a little more, and the orange lips would tie in the ladybug.

So it's settled. On the hunt for a pale pink blazer!

But on the whole, I think this is a pretty good look.

Mockingjay

I saw The Hunger Games. It was really good. Some of the things that was in the book wasn't in the movie, like (SPOILER ALERT!) the mutts that were actually the dead tributes. But that would have been hard to get across onscreen. The movie had just enough blood and guts, but still focused on the story. Although it mostly focused on Katniss, there were moments of other characters stories. It got me thinking, which is never a good thing. I'm just so glad we don't make our children kill each other.

To be comfy in the theater, I wore a pair of purple Forever 21 pants. I really like these pants. They're a bright violet color and very comfy. At first, I wasn't sure about the length, but I really like them for spring. I topped it off with a brown t-shirt from Zara. I love this shirt because it has a really cool see-through pattern. And a zipper in the back. I love all the details of this shirt. I must go to Zara again soon. Then I slipped on my good old leopard flats. They add a good dose of pattern and are really cute.

I really must find a better way to take pictures. Any suggestions?
