3 Will Never Die

Day 4 of Homecoming Week and it is Alternate Personality Day. Well I knew I would not be wearing anything cute, so I went with the most ridiculous thing I could think of. Actually my dad thought of it. A Dale Earnhardt fan. For those of you who do not know who Dale Earnhardt is, stop reading my blog. Just kidding. Now, prepare your self for an outfit opposite of the reason I write my blog. I wore a pair of Dale Earnhardt pajama pants that had huge 3's all over them, a hat with a huge 3 on it, a vintage, that is right, vintage Dale Earnhardt t-shirt, props to my boyfriend'd dad. And a Dale Earnhardt Jr cooler for character. I wore a pair of plan black keds, and I had a pair of earrings that actually had the same colors as the shirt so I wore them. I cannot say I was excited about how this outfit looked; however, the comfort level was mile high, and I got a lot of people to smile. Which is why I think we dress up for Homecoming Week anyways. Tomorrow is just Class Color Day and we wear our class T- shirts, which are Tuxedo Shirts, probably the hardest thing to style ever, especially for a girl. I can do it! I am so excited!

Carolina is my College

Day 3 of Homecoming. It is College day. There really is not too much you can do with this day unless you are a crazy fan of a college, which I am not. I do however have a few Carolina t-shirts and an Oxford hoodie. I wanted to dress up my Carolina t-shirt because I knew I would be crazy not fashionable tomorrow. Carolina's colors are baby blue, white, and navy. I wore my Carolina Blue t-shirt which has Carolina embroidered in navy on the front. I wore a shrunken navy blazer over it with a silver gray scarf. I wore a pair of basic jeans and silver sequin flats and silver jewelry. I love a fitted blazer to dress up something a little casual. To add a little humor to my post I will tell you about my disaster this morning. It was raining this morning so I was hurrying inside to school. Well my flats did not have very good tread on them so as soon as I stepped onto the slick commons floor I fell and busted my tail. I am pretty sure I will have a major bruise on my hip tomorrow. Not to mention I did not know it was raining until after I had straightened my hair for the one day of the week. I am normally a pretty lazy person when it comes to hair and make up. I have uniform make up and I usually just let my hair do whatever. Tomorrow is Alternate Personality day and I have to say it is my most risky, not fashion forward outfit I will wear all year, but I guess it would not be my alternate personality if it was. I am going to keep it a secret though. It is also the day I am most excited about, as far as dressing up!

Beach Bum? I don't think so.

Day 2 of Homecoming week and the theme was beach bum. Well when I think of the beach, I don't think of a bum. I think of cute bathing suits, wraps, flip flops, and big sun hats. I was not very excited about this day because how are you supposed to look like you are going to the beach and be school appropriate? You got me. Anyways, I worked with what I had. I wore a black tank top with a turquoise wrap as a little skirt, black sandals, black sunglasses and a Wallaroo sun hat. I scrunched my hair so that is would look like it was wet all day and so that it would have those beach waves. I also wore a lei for a little pop. I feel like I did the best I could with my outfit, but I know that I wish the days were a little more creative so we could go above and beyond with what we wear like we have in the past. Tomorrow is College Day so once again nothing too extreme, especially since I am not even a big sporty college person. Oh well, what can you do. Staying positive, it will still be my favorite week I am sure.

Ready to Pose in Neon Bows

It is Homecoming Week! The most loved week of school for most students, and definitely me. Today was Neon and Duct Tape Day. Well, I am not a big fan of neon, never have been, never will be. However I have school spirit, so this one day I could sport it, but I knew I would not be covered in it. I had a dance costume that had a huge lime green bow on the back of the shorts. I took the bow off and pinned it on to a strapless lbd, (little black dress). This dress poofed out at a the bottom but it was tight at the top. I pinned it right on the bust area. We cannot wear strapless tops to school so I wore a hot pink cardigan over it. I also wore black and hot pink stripped tights and a neon orange duct tape bow in my hair. For shoes I went with major patent black heels to keep the drama going. I did bring an extra pair of black flats for back up, I knew I would be in major pain if I wore those all day. It was also rainy all day so that made everything a little yucky. I am pretty happy with my outfit, I do not know how much more classy you can get with neon and duct tape. My brother and his friend made a bomber hat out of duct tape I thought was pretty creative so props to them. Tomorrow is Hawaiian Day and I cannot wait!

Suits Me

Today was Senior Skip Day, so needless to say, I did not go to school. I do not have a outfit to write about for what I wore to school, but we did have our Homecoming Court pictures. For our Homecoming all the girls are supposed to wear suits. There is only so much you can do to a suit right, wrong. I knew I would not be in a black pencil skirt and jacket the minute I found out I was on the Homecoming Court. Our school colors are black white red and silver; therefor, I knew I would stay in that color family. We went to Concord Mills this past weekend to get my ensemble. I ended up wearing A red wool jacket from Banana Republic, and a tweed black and white pencil skirt with pleats on the back bottom. It looks so good when I walk. Underneath the jacket I wore a black lace camisole and I went with paten black heels. I may try to find some black wedges before Homecoming night because I know it will be a little tricky to walk on the field with skinny heels. For jewelry I wore circle of love earrings and necklace in white gold and diamonds, a diamond tennis bracelet, and a vintage flower white gold and diamond ring. That vintage ring is to die for. I cannot wait until Homecoming night I am sure it will be so much fun, especially feeling confident in my 'suit'.

Fairly Fashionable

So, I have to admit. I would not say this is a best dressed outfit. However, it was supporting our Miss Central Davidson, Jessica. The one time I think it is okay to dress in your not so favorite outfit is when you are showing school spirit, which we will see with next week's homecoming 'get ups'. Most of the people who were going to support Jessica and the fair competition made t shirts that had saying like ' ya'll are fools, we got youells' or 'jess is the best' or 'youells rules' etc. Well, mine said 'ya'll a re fools, we got youells'. Turns out, these shirts are not allowed because it puts down other schools and we should be supporting Jessica. At school I did wear that shirt, with blue jean shorts, silver jewelry, and black sandals. When we found out we could not wear these shirts to the fair we all went to a friends house and remade our shirts. My new shirt said 'the family youlles'. It was a read shirt with black writing and a huge silver glitter diamond. I think this shirt was cuter anyways. We all had a ton of fun at the fair queen pageant, even though it was 300 degrees inside the building and no personal space at all. We won last years pageant, but North Davidson won this one. They recruit for everything else and they probably recruited for this too. Oh well, can't win them all and Jessica still did fabulous. Friday is Senior Skip Day; consequently, I won't have a blog about my school outfit. But I will think of something to write about.

Sixties Patterns and Pretty Sparkles

This week has been crawling by like no other. Tomorrow should be Friday. But it's not. So I am not sure what mother nature is thinking but it got up to about 90 degrees today and the day before that and it is supposed to be 93 tomorrow. So today I wanted to be cool when I was outside. I went with a short cotton skirt with purple, coral, orange, and bronze geometric patterns. Very 60s. This print was pretty bust so I decided to go with a more basic top. I wore a charcoal v neck tee. It has a little shimmer to it and it is gathered in the back to be more form fitting. I tucked it in, I am currently obsessed with tucking things in, I feel like if it is not meant to come past your hips, then it should not. I wore basic black flats, my bronze bracelet, and coral hoops, to continue with the 60s trend. This is a very comfortable outfit, as you can probably tell from most of my outfits, comfort is huge for me. Especially when I am going to be sitting at a desk all day. I did have to keep a check on my skirt to make sure it was not riding up or twisting around, but that is really no biggie. Tomorrow is Fair Queen day and we made t shirts. Most of the girls are wear black soffies but I refuse. So we will just have to see what I can come up with!

The Blues

Today I was determined to have a fabulous outfit. I feel like I have been slacking this past week. I wore a pair of jeggings for the first time this weekend and loved them, so I decided I would wear another pair today. I have never really been a fan of skinny jeans, wide jeans and heels are the ones for me, but if I ever wear skinny jeans from now on they will be jeggings. It feels like you are wearing comfortable sweats all day, but no one knows, and you still look super stylish. This is fashion modernization at its best. Not to mention most jeggings are a whole lot cheaper than what you would have to pay for a good pair of skinny jeans. I do have to give kudos to my cousin Courtney for introducing this fashion god masterpiece to me. Now for the rest of the outfit. I paired it with light blue floral shirt-dress (a present from Courtney and Donna, what are the odds) black leather booties and a light silver scarf. I wore silver hoops with a floral embossed design, and a silver sapphire necklace. I am in love with this outfit, it will definitely be a favorite for a long time.

Monday Morning Mayhem

This morning was absolute madness. I think I was running and sweating as soon as I woke up. I had not even thought about what I was going to wear today, had to search for a gps, get as many scarfs and hats together for a skit, eat, and my hair was just doing something crazy. Anyways, I did manage to pull something together. I wore a pair of straight leg jeans, with my toms, a cream sequin embellished tank, and a light blue long sleeved cardigan. It was pretty chilly this morning but by 3:00 pm I was ready to take a swim when it was 90 degrees. I actually changed into a t shirt I had in my bag before I went to my car because I knew I would just stroke out and die if I left that long sleeved cardigan on. I was pretty happy with this outfit to have thrown it together so quickly, but I did lack accessories and jewelry that really put the outfit together. Hopefully tomorrow will be a more peaceful morning.

Friday Football

I will go ahead and warn, this is going to be a short one. Especially since I am two days behind. I have just been bust busy busy. We got our Spartan Football T Shirts Wednesday so I knew I would be wearing it Friday but I wanted to go a little farther than jeans so, I wore that black t shirt with a gray cotton skirt with two big pockets. I wore my silver gladiators and silver jewelry. A pretty simple outfit but then again how far can you take a t shirt. The football game was farther than I wanted to ride or drive so I felt like I should support them more than normal in spirit and we won! A new week is head and it is starting to get cooler and cooler outside so that means new clothes to bring into the light! Love it!

Cody's Casuals

It is day 16 and I woke up late, not to mention had to get stuff together for a dip we had to make in Spanish. Yet I still decided on something a little risky, something I had never worn before. My boyfriend's shorts. They were blue jeans, then he cut them into shorts for I do not know what reason and never wore them. Well I am not a person who likes the girl jeans, in a boyfriend cut. It just seems fake, but that is just me. So I decided to actually wear my boyfriend's clothes. They fit like lose Bermudas and I rolled them up twice just to fit a little better. The one thing that is not a pro about wearing men's pants is that the crotch likes to stick out so a belt is the quick fix to that. I wore a 3/4th sleeve lose v neck red navy and cream shirt from Fossil with them and navy flats. I also wore silver earrings for a little glam. This was a pretty casual outfit for me, but you have to have your bum days every now and then. I think I even saw Rachel Zoe, my idol, in boyfriend jeans once, but of course also heels. Spartan Friday tomorrow! Too bad we are playing almost two hours away.

The President Must Represent

Day Fifteen. Wednesday. Ready for the week to be over, but also excited for the first Environmental Club meeting. Not to mention I am the President, or so I have been told. And then there is some talk about voting, humph, who needs voting, I have already done more than anyone else. Sorry to rant. Anyways, so I felt that I should represent the club. I wore a turquoise romper, we had another warm day, and a floral scarf. The romper is strapless, so I wore a short sleeved one button black cardigan, and my reinvented black and silver gladiators. Silver jewelry, and that is about it. A pretty basic outfit. I call this look the Modern Hippie, kind of an oxymoron, but we can all contradict ourselves at some point. The fabric the romper is made out of is really thin and wrinkles really easily, so if I wear it when I sit down for long periods of time ie. school, then I do not like the way it looks all wrinkled and mess. But I have been told that only people like many look for stuff like that so I have nothing to worry about at Central but it still matters to me. I am on another rant. But the romper is really comfortable it just sucks when you have to go to the bathroom and take it all the way down like a dance leotard. Nevertheless it will not stop me from wearing them. Two days till the weekend, two day too long.

A Floral Fourteenth Day

Day Fourteen, I cannot believe it has only been two weeks. It seems like this year is crawling, but I am sure it will be gone before I know it. I had another rushed morning, so my outfit was nothing crazy but still cute. I wore a cotton floral skirt. But it is not like a springy floral, the background is a dark dark brown and then it has orange green pink purple and blue flowers. It is a little hard to describe but I love it. It sits right on my waist, but not quite high waisted. It has a band at the top, so it sits just right. There is not much blue in the skirt so I wanted to bring that out. I wore a mid sleeved blue sweater, not like a winter sweater, a fall sweater, not too heavy. Just right and heaven hemp beige sandals, super comfortable. I wore my uniform jewelry, gold watch and diamond studs. I wish I would have had a better pair of shoes to wear with this outfit, but my hemp sandals are so comfortable I just could not turn this down. This is a pretty simple outfit but I did have to throw it together. Hopefully tomorrow I will not be so rushed. I just hate in between weather because it is really cool in the morning but 90 degrees in the afternoon. Oh well you cannot fight mother nature.

A Modern Military Monday

Off to a new week, but it is still Monday so I did not put as much thought as normal into my outfit. I went with one of my classic dresses I could wear on any warm day. It was a army green, kahki, and dark brown print. My boyfriend calls it my camo dress, because I hate camoflouge anything. But I have came to terms with it and I call it modern camo. Anyways, I put a belt around the smallest part of my torso, it was the same color brown and made from coconut shells cut into hearts. It was cool this morning so I wore a kahki 3/4 sleeve blazer over it. I wore brown gladiators with round gold studs and gold earrings and watch. I wish I would have had a scarf to wear with this dress, it would have been the perfect touch. Other than that this outfit will continue to be a favorite!

A Fiasco of a Friday

Friday, the best day of the school week right, not this Friday. It started out good, we ignited the knights so we had to wear red or yellow. I had this awesome awesome outfit picked out, had never worn the dress before, made it to my car, realized I forgot my phone, run inside to get it, saw my coffee sitting there grabbed it. I am getting in my car when SPLASH. Coffee all over me. And my outfit. Do I care that it is burning me, no. Do I care that I am going to have to find and totally new outfit in 2 minutes, yes. So I run inside see my red tie-dye, not as tacky as it sounds, screaming Spartans tee shirt, know that is my only option and threw on a white pair of shorts. I wore black sandals, and silver jewelry, ran back to my car and went to school, disgusted with how the morning started. Well I had my normal school day, it went fine, and then is was game time. I put jeans on for the game because it was beginning to get a little cool. I was down on the sidelines taking pictures for yearbook, when all of the sudden a man grabs me, pulls me back, and there are like fifty football players laying in a pile at my feet. Thank goodness for that man or my life could've been over. We lost the game, but the school we played has like five times as many people if that counts for anything. Hopefully next Friday will go better.

In the Trenches on Thursday

Before school started i went back to school shopping. One piece that I bought that I was the most excited about was a tan trench coat. It was so soft and fit me perfectly. I had to get it, even though I knew it would be a little bit before I wore it. Well today was the day. It was just cool enough this morning for a need for a lightweight coat over my cap sleeve dress. I was very rushed this morning so I had to throw something together and I was surprised at how fabulous it went with my outfit. I just knew it was time. I wore a forest green bubble dress, with a spiral print that almost looks navy when the light hits it right. I wore a navy belt and navy flats to bring that color out. I wore diamond studs and my gold vintage watch for added classiness. This year at school we are all about keeping it classy if you all were wondering why I use that word so much. I am in love with that trench coat it may be hard to keep me out of it this fall. The burgundy yesterday and forest green today makes me so excited for this fall season! I wanted to wear a scarf but I just knew it would be too much.

Tomorrow we are igniting the knights so that means red and yellow!

Bumping over the Hump in Burgundy

Day 10. Wednesday. And keeping it classy. Today I went with a satin burgundy dress, that hits just a few inches over the knee. It has a pleated neck. I wore a black cardigan over it with black patent leather flats. I also added a white belt with silver and copper studs for a little pizazz. I kept the copper bangle from yesterday, and just for little diamond studs. Today was a last minute outfit, more last minute than most. But I think I threw it together well. It was very comfortable, the only downer was it got pretty staticy and I forgot to put a dryer sheet in my pocketbook. They are the best quick fix for problems with static. Just rub it over your legs or against the dress or skirt and wala! Hairspray also works sometimes, it just gets a little sticky if you are not wearing tights. Hope my tip is helpful!

A Copper Kickoff

Ahh, Monday. Oh wait, no Tuesday! Well no matter the day it is the start to my school week. My dad just got back from Atlanta and he got me this two inch copper bangle. I knew I wanted to highlight this piece of jewelry, so I went with a more basic outfit. I wore pinstripe jean trouser shorts, a thin cream half sleeve sweater, and a thin stripped cream, green, and yellow, scarf for color. I had a little accident over the weekend and kicked a counter so it hurts a bit to wear heels, as a result I wore copper goldish moccasins, the copper bangle, and rustic copper earrings. This outfit was extremely comfortable, and it really showed off the bangle. This is a short post, but I have a feeling this is going to be a busy week so i need to get as much done as possible in the most efficient way.

Implied Excitement for Spartan Friday

It was our second Spartan Friday, and it was fabulous! Thursday night a bunch of the seniors got together and made shirts that spelled out Go Spartans! Well I was the exclamation mark, and very excited about it. We had black shirts with white writing. We also had little pockets. I put a bow on my pocket and stripes and polka dots in my exclamation mark. I wore white shorts and silver and black gladiators and silver jewelry. I changed into blue jeans shorts for the games because I spilled Subway on my white ones. There is not many times you will get me in a tee shirt, but supporting my school and having school spirit is one of them! And I think the shirts really did help, we won, 47-0! What a game! Next Friday we play one of our biggest rivalries so we just need to stay focused so we can do just as good... if not better.
Go Spartans!

Day Seven, Sweet and Short

Hey Guys, so I know I am behind I just have not been at a computer since Wednesday and I do not want to have to do a whole post on an iPhone. So today was Thursday and I realized that the last really warm days are coming to an end so I wanted to make sure and get as many short outfits in as possible. I decided to go with a floral strapless romper with ruffles. Black leather sandals, silver jewelry,and we can not go strapless at school so a black cardigan over it. This romper is so comfortable and I actually do not pull it up constantly throughout the day. It is also I good thing I wore flat shoes because I had to deliver packages to every single classroom on Thursday. The only problem I encountered was that the romper is gathered at the waist but it is not a high waist so it likes to ride up, but other than that this outfit was a success and I do not know why but I always get more compliments than normal when I wear a romper... mm, I am not complaining.

A Simple Day Six

Today, is Wednesday. Finally over the hump. But I just was not in to mood for anything too crazy or that took a lot of thought, so I went with a denim shirt dress from Tommy, it buttons all the way down, has 3/4ths sleeves and it has small ruffles at the neck for a feminine touch. I wore a cloth belt and a turquoise floral scarf and turquoise sandals to add some color. I pull my hair back in a bun, just was not in the mood to mess with it today. Big silver earrings with a floral pattern, a silver heart bracelet, and a pink sapphire ring, yes i said pink sapphire. This dress is so comfortable I could die, or just wear it every single day. I also love that I can wear it as so many different outfits, dress it up or dress it down. I would most def say a denim dress is an essential for an closet. Even my mom has one. I had absolutely nothing wrong with my outfit today other than getting a little warm with the scarf when I was outside, but that is an easy fix. I found out today that we have to wear our class colors for Spartan Friday, which is black for me, so I better start looking for something to top last Friday's black outfit!
I feel like this blog wasn't very interesting but, it was a simple day, as far as my outfit goes.
