Today I wore my latest Goodwill find. A Mossimo jacket that I spent $4.99 on!

tanktop: $7.97; Norstrom Rack.
jacket: $4.99; Goodwill (you’re jealous).
jeans: $28.99; Old Navy
flipflops: $12.99; Ross (don’t match, should have worn boots).

earrings: I have no idea where they came from.
eyes: stila orchid compact.
lips: chanel #20: “Sun Beige” (omg I have chanel lipstick?!)
gold chain: given to me by trucker uncle (aka my #1 style icon).
fake model expression: free!

Aaaaaaand then for some reason I decided to take more pictures after working all day, and I realized that I make the same eyebrow-face in all of my pictures:

turtleneck: $9.99; Target (I think I wear this shirt every day).
curly hair: courtesy of my mother.
undereye circles: courtesy of working 7 night shifts in a row.
my nose: is fabulous.

So, yes. There’s my outfit. I’m thinking I should have broken out my black ankle-bootie things for this outfit, but alas am a wuss and much prefer shoving my feet into flipflops instead of cramming them into closed-toed shoes. I’m planning on changing this, though, as I just invested in yet another pair of ridiculous heels.

I would like to take this opportunity to inform the internet that I’m really rather good at coordinating outfits, except for the shoes. Ugh.

Also I’d like to thank the local-area-Target-customers for not purchasing anything from Target from last season, since I keep scoring last-season’s looks for dirt cheap at Goodwill. It’s basically the coolest thing ever.

Today I am wearing blue tights and a skirt. I’ve been feeling pretty “super” all day, if you know what I mean!

tights: welovecolors. (Royal blue, not electric. But still! ELECTRIC.)
boots: inherited from my sister.
teapot: a gift for Mom.
my feet: are enormous.

skirt: $25; Macy’s.
belt: $9.99; Marshall’s.
shirt: $9.99; Target.
clock: amazing.

earrings: $4; Forever 21 (or XXI, as it’s called here).
makeup: covergirl.
my beautymarks: you’re jealous of them.

This pair of boots? Do they really work with this outfit? I’m not completely certain. I’m pretty comfortable walking around in them, though they do make my size 11 feet a little more ungainly. I think by virtue of the fact that I’m used to wearing flexible skimmers or tennies, and not hard leather boots that don’t flex when my feet move.

Dressing up on special (or random) days has always been a great little ego-boost for myself. Taking that extra ten (or twenty) minutes to put an outfit together, or do my makeup special really just makes the entire day go by faster!

Also I don’t mind being stared at for having legs the colour of a smurf.
