"if there is no struggle, there is no progress." -frederick douglas

-disclaimer- this blog has been revamped!!! yay! i'm pretty excited. i have a new name, new design, new new new!! change is good. plus, i'm trying to enter the blog world more, since so much emphasis has been put on it in all my journalism classes. so we'll see how it goes. you'll be seeing a whole lot more posts from me...probably not every day but at least a couple times a week.

annnnd...i love love love looking at fashion blogs so i'm going to try to do some of that myself too. i mean, most days i just throw on jeans and a hoodie (along with some kind of parka...haha...kidding...) before class, but i do have those days where i try to look particularly cute. and looking cute makes you feel good. so i'm gonna do it more often.

heres what i looked like today:

shirt: mila couture, undershirt: downeast, pants: ross, belt: thrifted, shoes: ross

okay so heres the deal. i love shopping at ross dress for less. its my favorite place. just because the clothes can be so cheap. so the majority of my stuff is from there. but. rexburg doesn't have one. the nearest is IF. sooo i enjoy finding little boutiques around rexburg that aren't too bad, actually. the most recent one is mila couture...where i got the green lace shirt. guess how much i got it for. did you guess $1.05? i bet you didn't. well thats how much it cost me. yeah, amazing, i know. its because mila is not only a boutique with new stuff, but they have a downstairs which they call a "fashion exchange". you can bring in your old clothes or simply just clothes you don't want anymore and they will buy them from you for cash or store credit. and that, my friends, is the story of how i ended up spending a buck oh five on a brand new shirt.

anyyyywhoo...the semester has been pretty....cruddy so far. but i'll spare you the nasty details and just say that my life is now in turn going in a hopefully, fantastic direction. 

mucho love!
