Too bad I couldn't get any pics long-way for easy-posting, so I had to delete three good pics to save your eyes from scrolling down the entire page to read the post haha. Took a school field trip to brunch at The Grove, shopping in Topshop, and wandering around LACMA. Wearing white-on-white is my latest obsession, and if I had a white pair of chunky Wildfox pumps I would've thrown that in as well. Today was also beyond sweltering, and the white helped me ward off heat more than if I was wearing my usual darks. Overall good day, but I'm tired and have three stories to write for Journalism class, so I'll cut this short- bye!

Hey all! Decided to change up my way of posting yet again by revealing the full post on the front page! Whaddya think? Do you prefer just showing one image linked to the rest of the post, or just all at once? Let me know in your comments! Me and my friend Jamie kicked off our 4-day weekend with a trip to Mimi's Cafe, EAT cafe, and Ulta. Scored a free smoothie from EAT- thanks JC! I am now officially announcing that I will be back on regular blogging, as often as I can- please forgive me for the inconsistency in my posts! Being in high school and the stress of getting into college can really take its toll. Just want to thank all you readers who are still here supporting me, I really appreciate it- Hugs and kisses to you all!

  Just finished another week of testing, right after AP testing week... I swear, my brains going to fry up any minute. Posting a real short and quick excerpt today because I gotta run to a 3-hour long cheer practice. This outfit I wore one thing I practically never wear- denim jeans. You might think "everybody owns a pair of jeans!" Well, I do, I just prefer not to wear them what with my athletic short and stocky legs and the fact that I don't like to constrict them into stiff denim in the early mornings. But recently I've been admiring pale denim for the spring/summer, and when I saw these Articles of Society jeans, I practically jumped for joy. I've never felt confident in jeans, but prancing around this pair (not literally) made me feel like a honest-to-god lady. Plus it was super stretchy and comfortable!  And psst, does my hair look a little less flat than usual? I sure hope so, because I've started using a new volume-boosting shampoo/conditioner, a post to come about that!

As you might be able to tell, I am ecstatic over the fact that AP TESTING IS FINALLY OVER!!! This was my first successful chink-a-dink candid photo I have ever taken with me laughing and managing not to look like a piglet stuck in mud. Today I wore my favorite go-to casual/cool brand Wildfox for the day after I took my last AP test as a means of celebrating my brain-deadness. School's still in session, but I am just so over it- AP testing has really drained my brain power, if that's even possible. But I have SAT on June 1st, so I'm not completely done just yet... but enough to get back to regularly blogging without the stress of having to cram what seems like a hundred presidents and their years and policies into my brain. To shop Papertine's amazing Wildfox collection, visit their site here.

  Had a stress-relieving adventurous day with Sky and her sis,  beelining it to Starbucks afterschool to beat the line for "Frappy Hour" and taking quick outfit pics plus a few silly ones, to get our minds off AP testing for just a few minutes. I have my first AP test tomorrow (AP English-agh!), and the way I'm preparing for it is just to relax and read a few interesting books such as The Carrie Diaries to get my creative juices flowing.. and then back to cramming my APUSH reading/memorizing, along with the 20 essays I procrastinated on that is due Tuesday... (lord help me) What better way to de-stress than starbucks and blogging? I paired my brother's shirt (he unwillingly let me wear) with this Insane Jungle leather skirt in a first attempt to channel my inner sporty-chic, and finding myself to really liking this outfit and the pics! (thanks Sky!)

dressed for stress



I apologize in advance for my lack of posts- It's crunch time for all the Juniors at this time of year, what with AP testing, college-dependent grades, SAT, and CST , all right one after the other . In addition to that, I've got my internship, cheer practices, and a crazy foreign language teacher who decides to give us a ton of homework even when we  have AP testing going on. -_- In summation (look at me, I'm talking like an AP Eng Essay haha) , I 'm dressed very casually these days, usually accessorized with disheveled hair, bags under my eyes, and coffee in my hand. Not a very bloggable look.  Had to help out with a photoshoot today afterschool and decided to appear a bit more presentable- threw on a  super soft/comfy tank from Pinkbasis (the newest place online to find affordable, chic fashion) and american shorts perfect for this blistering midday heat.
