Yesterday in my fashion class my teacher told us to wake up today and look in the mirror and say, "I look good today, I am going to have a great day." And I think shes right, when your pleasant with your outfit your day doesn't feel too bad. I'm usually not a negative person so my day was like every day, with the exception of having picture worthy outfit for you today!

White pocket button up from the Kardashian Kollection at Sears || Army green anorak jacket from Wet Seal || Plaid skater skirt from Marshalls || Open knit socks from TJ Maxx || Chelsea Boots from PacSun || World map watch from Urban Outfitters || Rustic Bracelet from Pier 1 Imports || Rings from Pacsun 

I also felt very Alexa Chung-esque with her signatures like the button up and chelsea boots.

I got a lot of great feedback from my last post through Twitter and Instagram so thanks again to those people and love you!!

doodle days: how you know, can and feel you are a city girl

The other day I was telling my mom about what I want to do after high school aka go to school in a big city. She told me she could totally see me living the city life. I've been told this by some friends too, which is great to hear that I'm suitable for my #goals!!! In response I even looked up "how you know you're a city girl" and I matched up with a lot of the characteristics. Here's my thoughts on what makes me feel like a city girl and what I think makes one. 

1. You know you love me - Not sure if any of you have watched Gossip Girl but if you haven't you should. Blair Waldorf is the NYC queen. With her sassy attitude and leadership, city girls live and relate to.

2. Be one with the Bean - As in coffee! You have a coffee for every occasion, french vanilla latte for comfort, macchiato to feel refreshed and cappuccino for enjoyment. 

3. Constant desire - You always want more for ex. info on everything, fashion, politics or culture. You can also want more of an item, for me it's white button ups, you can never have enough!!

4. No fear the yellow limo is here -You're not afraid of public transit, in fact you enjoy it, seeing the different people and hearing weird noises. Besides that you also love to just walk everywhere you go. 

5. Me, myself and I - You don't care what people think. You say, dress and do what you want, when you want and how ever. You always feel extra confident because you're just awesome.

6. Carrying your life - You don't just have a wallet in your purse. You also have 4 lipsticks, receipts, some pictures and a mini pencil from Ikea and miscellaneous.

7. Over achiever - You don't just "do" something. You become it. Read over 10 times. Go through a couple erasers. Add some flowers. Dance around. You are an over achiever, always adding your flare and going the extra mile is just you.

So are you a city girl?

(This is the first to my doodle days series which is under my tag days along with so called "adventures" I go on, and random blurbs/thoughts/tips) 

haul: columbus day sales!!

So I got some retail therapy in and thought I'd share because I'm so happy with the sales that happened this weekend and I got things checked off my wishlist!

Saturday I went to the Twin Cities Premium Outlet and not only was the pumpkin spice latte I had was great but Pacsun was having a buy 3 and get 40% off so I got on that deal and bought these Chelsea booties which are super easy to wear along with a floral circle scarf and simple layering rings.

On Sunday I went to Mall of America which surprisingly wasn't as hectic as it usually is, sadly the only place I bought stuff was Nordstrom Rack. My grandma actually bought this sweater for me and picked it out it's sOooOooOOoo soft and I love the dainty color and feel of it. Lastly is my favorite item I got (again thanks grandma), but this vest has been on my wishlist for far to long. I love that it's not that over-powering with the balance of the (faux) fur in the front and knit in the back and when I saw it, it gave me the feel of the city again because its such an odd piece but gives off a huge statement.

Back to basics, just like my outfit today, the fresh reviving weather and blogging (again I totally dread not writing for 3 weeks.. I think). I wanted to post my outfit today because honestly I felt confident, comfortable and edgy today. I also feel if you have burgundy lips or any dark lips, and a leather jacket it will def spice up simplicity and the two of them are part of my essentials.
