Beg Steal or Borrow

I have big news. Big, scary, keeping-me-up-at-night news. (no! I'm not pregnant!) 

I quit my 9-5 office job and am going back to school. That's right, at the ripe young age of 24 I've finally come into my own and figured out what I want to do, and now I just need to do it. 

I am so scared. 

But also so excited!! 
And you will be seeing a whole new level of thrifting and remixing on this old blog now... 

There, now you're scared and excited too! ;)
Teal Flutter Blouse- H&M, Dark Skinnies- J.Crew, Grey Suede Pumps- Nine West (Outlet baby!), Various Bracelets, Nerd Glasses-  I'm gonna call this DIY/Superstore :)
To celebrate the re-education I donned my faux-bans and tied my hair up, I felt this looked "smart". But then, since it's art school, I whipped out the bright coral lipstick and sequin bracelets... I hear those art-kids are crazy like that. 

Big Love!!

  7. Congratulations on taking the leap! As soon as I figure out what I want to do with my life that doesn't require eight more years of education, I'll be right behind you :) You're looking oh-so-smart for the occasion, too- I have a pair of DIY used to be readers, but they aren't nearly as cute as yours. And that turquoise top is the perfect colour on you. Love it.
    xox,
