It's the Little Things

• I had so much fun with my best friend Lauren celebrating her sweet sixteenth birthday!   I took her to an estate sale yesterday morning and later her family took me to the dinosaur museum!  I had not been there in years!  I forgot how incredible and fun it is!  Later we played Mario Brothers on her Wii and ate scones for dinner!  I hope you had an incredible day Lauren!
• I accidentally shut Lauren's cat in the fridge.  We got scones out of her fridge and she grabbed chocolate milk and I shut the door.  Thirty seconds later she opened the door to put the milk away and he was sitting in there.  That could have been a disaster!
• School is over!  I ended up only going to school once this week.  Happy summer everyone! 
• My art teacher lost my best drawing.  It was actually life-like!  I was so upset when he couldn't find it!  But he still had the other two so it could have been worse...
• I didn't get a yearbook for my first year in high school.  My mom forgot to order one for me and they are sold out.  So I brought a notebook and made friends sign that.  I am not giving up!  That year book is something I want so bad.  I emailed my school and asked if there is any way I can order it online and get it later.  Here's to hoping!

It's the Little Things

• Golly, I don't even know how many days of blogging I have missed due to computer problems.  
• Said computer problems are the reason I have been absent.  Again.
• My mom and sister went out of town this weekend so it has just been me and my dad!
• So, there was an accident with my hair and I now have a completely new hairstyle!  It is about time, because I was getting very bored!
• I have finally seen The Avengers!  It was really good!
• Two more days of school!  Well, school ended for me a month ago.  And I have been skipping random classes all last week.  But I just have two yearbook days and SUMMER!
• I feel like a pink barbie doll thanks to my hair!

It's the Little Things

• School is so so close to ending!  I am so ready for this summer!
• I am taking summer school Geometry by choice.  That is right.  I didn't fail any classes. I am doing this so I don't have to take an entire year of Geometry.  So when school starts I will skip to Algebra 2!
• Remember the skirt I wore yesterday?  See it here.  During first period I sneezed and you know what happened?  I popped the two eye hooks off of it!  So the skirt in the pictures is ripped and needs to be fixed.  It was the ice cream cone I ate the day before that helped tighten it enough, I know it.
• I was told that I have the coolest clothes and wear the prettiest dresses.  I love compliments!
• This week I went to a woman's house and got so many wonderful vintage treasures!  I love all of the clothes and fabric I got to take home with me for free!
• I went on my first bike ride of the summer!  I am so excited for all of the bike rides to come with Anna!
• I went to a stag dance last night and had a blast!
• I went to estate sales and garage sales for the first time in ages!  I have gotten some pretty cute stuff!
• I didn't come home from the dance until about 1am and woke up this morning at 7am to go to estate sales.  I am sort of running on low today.

What I Wore: 5-18-12

 It was such a sad windy day!  I had no idea when I left for school this morning. Had a known of the wind I would have chosen a different outfit.  I have been known to have more than my fair share of not-so-glamorous Marilyn Monroe moments.

 This shirt and skirt were more scores from the house I have told you about in the last two posts!

 There is a good example of a not fantastic Marilyn Monroe moment.  I  do not see any form of glamour in this picture.

What I Wore: 5-17-12

 This is the first of the dresses I got on Monday! It is so beautiful!  A funny story comes with this dress.  The daughter of the woman who's house is being cleaned out gave this dress to my little sister, Avery.  She thought it was a little girl's dress but when Avery tried it on when we got home it was too big.  It was.  It was meant for a lady because it had a space for boobs that fell flat on her!  So I sneaked it on because I was told it was not for me because I would rip the seams.  It fits wonderfully. Not too small or too big!  Take that world.  Too bad my mom said it is still Avery's dress.

I feel like such a cool lady in this dress!  So girly and fun!

 So... this is my fail of trying to do a close up of the collar.  I was supposed to cut my  head out of the shot.  So have an up-the-nose picture of me instead (:

List of Ten: Things You May (not) Know About Me

1. I will change my clothes around three times a day.  Not including getting ready for the day.  That could add so many more times.
2. I love to ride bikes.  I need a new one so I will stop stealing my mom's!  A vintage Schwinn would be ideal!
3. I am awful at math.  I am in 10th grade and am taking Algebra 1 for the third year in a row.
4. I am currently using three closets, two dressers, and a rack in my basement for clothing storage.  That may indicate that I love clothes.  Or that I have a serious problem.
5. I am sixteen and don't have a driver's license.  I cannot wait to drive myself all over the place!
6. I would rather have a closet full of vintage clothes than new clothes from the store.  Old clothes hold so much more character and no one ever wears the same thing!
7. I cannot sew well but I will because I am taking four sewing classes next year!  I can finally use my vintage patterns I collect!
8. I have just as many oldies on my ipod as I do any other genre.  They are all so happy and fun!
9. I love hot chocolate!  I will drink it any time I am offered it!
10. I sell vintage clothes!  I sell them out of my house right now, but I am going to have a boutique as soon as I can!

What I Wore: 5-15-12

 Today was an incredible day!  It started off with me waking up to not insane messed-up hair.  I slept on it wet and expected it to be a nightmare. Not so, dear readers! Pahahaha success!

This is an outfit that belonged to my grandma before she gave it to me with the rule that I had to wear it to school! I love it so!  I still cannot believe it has escaped my blog for this long.

Yesterday I was absent because right after school I went to a woman's house that if full of so many beautiful treasures!  She is in her 90s and her daughter is trying to clean out her house.  When I say she had collections, I mean she had tons and tons of things.  Like doubles of $200 shoes from 1950.  And a room so full of vintage fabric you could barely walk in it.  Lets not even get started on her old clothes.  I died inside looking at them!  Any way, I was there because she is friends with one of my aunts and she called my mom and told her to bring my sister and me to see if there was anything we wanted.  I left with a car full with vintage clothing and fabric!  I cannot wait to wear them!

What We Wore: Mother's Day

 Happy Mother's Day to all of the moms out there!  I hope you all have an amazing day!

 Glory.  My mom wanted pictures of me and my sister for Mother's Day.  I told her I wouldn't take any more until I could get some of her.  It is Mothers Day.  Not daughters day.

Mimi's Cafe was having a tough time today!  They put us in a table that was reserved so they had to move us.  They gave my mom the wrong drink, which in itself, isn't really a big deal but it adds to the funny troubles they had.  They delivered our food to the wrong table.  The pancakes they gave my dad were burnt so they took them back and sent new pancakes.  The new pancakes were black.  I had a wonderful time laughing!

What I Wore: 5-12-12

 Glory!  It's a weekend!  I was quite the lazy bum today.  I didn't get ready for the day until it was almost six pm!  I went to a family barbecue and ate lots of yummy food and got to visit with my grandparents who came down from St. George for the weekend!

 I have tied my hair.  Remember the crazy long hair wraps I did here?  Well this is similar.  That little butterfly is a broken earring that I attached to my wrap. I actually want to let it turn into a real literal dread lock.  But with my mother I know she will make me take it out before that happens.   I am getting bored with my hair all over again.  Can I have just one dread lock? Pink hair?  Something!?
