The week before last was amazing. I got to see a friend of mine on leave from the Navy. We played frisbee, TI, chatted, and ate good food.

Last weekend was a blast! My family and I went whale watching in Monterey. It was amazing. There were so many humpback whales feasting. I just fell in love with all of them.

Photos and maybe a video or two will be posted later.

Thanks everyone!

What I Have/Had Been Up To Part1

Uncategorized

I wanted to apologize about not updating for so long. Life got in the way. I had to find new work, I had to work out things with my family and friends, and I honestly forgot about this site.

I don’t particularly have a set style. I know people who stick to clothes from say Forever 21, or wear predominately black things, or only thrift for their clothes. I know some people who always follow what’s in. I’m more of a mix. I do my fair share of shopping at stores like Forever 21, Target, Macy’s, Nordstrom, etc. I love to thrift. I like finding what would be expensive at department stores at thrift shops because at thrift shops their half or even 75 percent cheaper.

I don’t dress for anyone. I dressed for someone once and it didn’t work out. It just messed with my head. I dress purely for myself. I like seeing what I believe I look good in.

I document my outfits. There are many reasons. 1: I have this fear of forgetting the things I like and love. 2: I don’t particularly like to repeat outfits. 3: I have a lot of clothes so I want to know that I’ve worn something at least twice.
I’ve made a plan to update every evening. So here it goes. This is going to be one long post. I’ve got a lot of outfits to show you all.

I’m a big fan of this app Photo Mirror. When I post on my Instagram, I usually use Photo Mirror. I use that with an addition of Afterlight. I try to avoid using Photo Mirror for every photo and I don’t particularly like using filters for my outfit of the day pictures.

A’gaci : shoes || Forever 21 : crop top sweater & skirt || Salvation Army Thrift Shop : purse || Payless : knee high socks       Back in May, I went to watch U2 in concert. This was the first night. I was sitting up in the rafters. It wasn’t the nosebleed seats, but it wasn’t particularly close either. I had a side view of the band. All in all it was a wonderful night.

These photos I decided to test my iPhone timer. I figured it was time to start learning how to do that because I don’t always have people around me to take my photos. I don’t have the guts nor the trust to ask strangers to help a girl out.

I was never one who liked wearing pink, but I think I’m warming up to it. I think.

Macy’s : skirt || Salvation Army Thrift Shop tank top || Target purse || Ross boots

This is perhaps one of my favorite outfits, one of my favorite backgrounds, and one of my favorite poses. I’m not good with poses. I’m still trying to find the right one. The struggle for me is finding the pose that is flattering to me and my body type.

On this particular day, I was in a rush to get ready. If I knew it would have been sunny in San Francisco I would have worn a nice sun dress.

I went to a break dancer event. It was so cool. They were all so impressive. It really made me wish I was fit, had rhythm, and could dance.

Okay that’s it for this afternoon. I might put another up later tonight, but we’ll see. Thanks for checking my blog out. Thanks for following. Feel free to leave comments!

Thanks and God bless!
