black and green and blue all over


I actually wasn't too crazy for this outfit today...I felt kind of like one of those chicks that tries too hard to look hot by wearing body-conscious pieces and deadly shoes, except I felt kind of fat. So I guess I should say I felt phat that day. :P

Bumblebee Chic



Black, yellow, and white. Well, lucky the yellowjackets have good taste in color.
I actually changed into jeans after I took this picture because it was a bit hotter than I expected- darnet :(

The Wicked Witch of the West is Dead


Just another Sunday outfit, but everything I'm wearing I've owned for over a year except the belt, which was thrifted, so I was just reinventing classics I suppose.

Game Day

It was the weekend, this is what I would call casual but in attempt to still look nice. So I threw on blue for my school color as well, unfortunately we lost though. :(

Geekin Experimentation



Slight social experimentation: Does wearing glasses attract or detract attention to you? And how do people react when you look a bit dorkier? And does it change an individual's attitude of him or herself?

So confession: I don't actually wear glasses, I bought these at Wet Seal because it amused me that geek chic was trying to be so big, and I also heard a rumor that teachers biasely like you if you look smarter, so why not give it a try?

Well, here's my observations:
Less boys even acknowledged my presence today. Probably by 80%, haha. Less people noticed me in general. I kind of enjoyed the sense of feeling pretty invisible on campus. However, a few dorkier guys (who also were wearing glasses) made eye contact with me instead of looking down at the ground. People I know very well totally did not recognise me on campus today, it made me laugh.
However, I got positive responses during class. Not only did I feel smarter and more effective in my classes, but my teachers responded to me and gave me more attention.

And here's the irony: I took my glasses off during lunch and started studying and a random guy came to talk to me.
After lunch, put them back on, and older adults would have active conversations with me. Inside I felt kind of lesser because I looked "dorkier" but at the same time my confidence in my studying skyrocketed off the charts. I also kind of had the mentality that I had a mask on.
In conclusion, wear glasses if you want your academic support pay attention to you, and ditch them if you want casual peer attention.

When it Rains


yay for cardigan and closed toe shoe weather again! It was a very beautiful overcast day today and this outfit was just right except my ankles got a bit wet, but I enjoyed being kind of cold for once.

So Long Sweet Summer

Today I wore my standard summer uniform, but as I sat outside taking this picture I began to feel kind of cold with a little rain pouring. So the time has come finally for me to celebrate Fall by utilizing the rest of my wardrobe. Goodbye summer and simple boring outfits!

Because I love the color green just oh so much, I saw a trend involving green eyeliner and I wanted to try it. And well, I love it, it makes a nice impact with less effort:

Celebratory Dress



Thanks to one dress and deciding to declare Tuesday a random holiday, I turned what could have been the most potentially blah day of the week into the most exciting. I declared it personal liberation day, and threw on my happiest dress to celebrate. I also wore this because in two weeks it won't be warm enough to wear only one layer of clothes so I might as well try to enjoy it while it lasts.
