Business Casual or Something

This semester, I'm taking a training class for a potential job through the school district's career center. Because we are training to (hopefully) be hired at the end of the school year, there's a dress code. Mondays are casual. Tuesdays are business casual. Wednesdays are professional dress. Thursdays are employer issued uniforms. 

This would be all fine and dandy if I actually owned a pair or two of dress pants.

Or if I wasn't too cheap to go out and buy dress pants.

Or if we didn't get sixteen inches of snow this weekend before temperatures dropped down to 10 degrees.

Still, it does mean I actually wear my dresses.

Sometimes, I don't like my face. Here, look at my hair. Wait, I'm not super excited about this half red/half brown color.

Fine. You can look at my face.

Nevermind. Just look at my room. See that classy Target bag?

No, I was not comfortable by any stretch.

But I felt fricken adorable.

Late. Shoot me now.

You're all probably appalled at me for not posting yesterday. I know, I know. I HAVE A GOOD REASON! I took all my pictures and everything was great. I uploaded them onto the laptop at about 9pm. Which is a totally normal time to post, yes? Yes. I was in the process of uploading them to this blog right here, when my mother walks in and says she's needs the laptop stat. So I close blogger and hand it over, cuz that's what a good daughter does, right? Right. So I ask if I can use the PC upstairs, but I am then told that the computer is off for the night. Ugh. So I consented to post pictures TODAY. This morning. And yeah, I know. It's noon. No longer morning. BUT I woke up, went straight to acupuncture, and then to the car shop cuz something's wrong with my brakes, ate lunch really early at Wendys, and then a friend came and picked me up. I'd tell you the rest of the story, but I'll let that one wait til my next post later....Blech.

So, I went to church today. Er...yesterday. BUT I'M PRETENDING I WROTE THIS YESTERDAY, SO BEAR WITH ME! Yeah. That's why I'm wearing a dress. PLUS there was this really cute guy there who actually still doesn't know who the poop I am, but I decided I should look uber cute, just in case I managed to go intorduce myself.
I didn't. But hey! I saw him looking at me out of the corner of his eye(Yeah, I was looking at him, and I didn't even bother to be so descreet about it). So that's something, right?? Maybe he'll recognize me at youth on Wednesday. *fingers crossed*

 You probably noticed that I'm NOT wearing my usual jewlery. As aforementioned, THERE WAS A CUTE GUY AT CHURCH TODAY! I felt like dressing up. ::)

Black dress: Ross, for my sister's wedding
Polka-dotty Shoes: Gen-X
White tank top: Walmart
Bracelets: Aeropostale
Necklace: My sister made it. HOW COOL IS THAT?!?



So...I didn't exactly feel like wearing a dress ALL day....I mean...it's not exactly the most comfortable thing in existence. And I really felt like lounging around. So, I changed into a t-shirt and running shorts. Why running shorts? Cuz they're comfier than denim. True story.
 Yeah. I look kinda dumb in this picture right here. ^^^ SO?


White graphic T: Christmas present
Striped tank top: Walmart
Running shorts: Christmas present(I know. You're wondering, WHO GIVES RUNNING SHORTS AS CHRISTMAS PRESENTS TO KIDS THAT DON'T DO ANYTHING ATHLETIC?! Trust me...I wonder the saammmeee thinggg)

Keep Singing the Blues


The bangs are starting to grow on me.
I decided to wear a dress today, 'cause I wasn't going to be able to go a bike ride and I've wanted to wear these shoes all week.


Weird disproportionate legs and crappy lighting anyone?


I <3 these shoes :D
They're navy blue, I swear.


My hair attempted to curl on its own today.

It failed.

^^That would be me on the phone with Rora.
I love you, dear.

I'm sorry, but cleaning in that dress sucks. T-shirt time!!!

Rushingand racing and running in circles....

Okay, so, my mom took pictures of me in this outfit last night, but the only one she's done is a close up, so I had to take some of my own.


I'm wearing a blue and black striped dress (my camera seems to like switching black to white), and a pair of black leggings, both from Target. Also, I am wearing a flower necklace given to me by a friend.

Post number one??

Hey there, everyboddyy.
So, my amazing and unfairly beautiful friends have been posting for a while now...I...have not. I was gone. Getting a tan(aka, sunburn) and ripping my shoulders out of their sockets(not literally) at a nearby(ish) lake. I shall not post pictures of me from the lake, seeing as my hair looks atrocious, and all I'm wearing is a baggy t-shirt and a swimsuit.
I came back yesterday and had to dress up for a church meeting. SO here is the picture of thatttt. :)
I'll post pictures of me TODAY later...once I pick something to wear.


I know, I'm lame. Only one picture. I promise to have multiple next time.


Dress: Stolen from my sister.
Shoes:(I know you can't see them terher) Ross
