Ending Impressions

Well, this will be my last blog for a while. But I cannot say that I am complaining, because it will soon be my favorite holiday, Christmas! Like I have said before, any reason is a reason to dress up, including the last school day of the year 2010 and Christmas. I had to make this outfit fabulous. I went with a black and cream floral abstract print satin high waist pencil skirt. Quite a description I know, but it still does this fabulous number no justice. I wore it with black tights and black heels and for my top, I kept it basic with a solid black round neck 3/4th sleeve shirt, with poofy sleeves. I am just in love with poofy sleeves! I wanted to add some color to the ensemble but I did not want to take away from the skirt so I went with a solid maroon scarf. As for jewelry, diamond studs, and my Nana's emerald ring. Fabulous. Until next year friends!

I Need a Blaze

We did not go to school Thursday or Friday because of the weather, so no, I have not missed any posts. Tomorrow's high is around 47, and I honestly cannot wait for a little warmth. We do not even have heat in our school yet. Insanity, the bad kind. Today I wanted to pick out an outfit that was Christmasy but still classy. I figured I would end up wearing a dress tomorrow so I went with my red wool 3/4th sleeve one button blazer today. I wanted it to stand out, so I wore it with dark skinnies, black booties, black ruffle neck top, and a silver scarf. I went with big silver hoops and a silver bracelet. So classy! Half a day tomorrow, then it is Christmas break!

Not so Lucky Seven

This morning I had planned on wear a cute sweater dress, until I found out it was seven degrees outside! Jeans would not keep me warm in seven degrees, so I had to sit my tights and dress to the side. Now, I shall warn, this is not my cutest outfit. It consisted of, skinny jeans, over the knee boots, red thermal long sleeve shirt, black fleece scarf, black hoodie, which stayed on most of the day,  and I resorted to my big winter coat. I just do not handle winter weather too well. I am not excited about this outfit, so I am cutting it short. They are calling for snow tomorrow, so there may be no post for Thursday.

That's Princess to You

This past weekend I went Christmas shopping with my mom and I found this shirt. It was love a first sight. The thing is, I was in love with it when I only saw the sleeve! I saw some unusual rousching creating a puffy sleeve look. It has a Renaissance look to it, as my boyfriend says. No matter the look, i had to have it. The shirt is a nice earthy forest green color with a slight v neck. I wore the shirt with wide jeans, rolled up, cognac boots, bomber jacket, and a green, blue, blend scarf. I was just so in love with my sleeves I did not want to wear my jacket, so I ended up wearing my scarf from 7:30am to 9:30pm. That's 14 hours, but who's counting right. Because of the way the scarf is made it has to stay wrapped pretty close to the neck and chest to wear it. Well I got home from shopping with my dad when I noticed my chest was a little broke out. Turns out I had wore my scarf for so long that it had began to irritate my chest. What a nightmare! But never fear, I will be wearing a scarf tomorrow, just not for as long!

Red Suede Pants are the New Blue Suede Shoes

With only seven days remaining until Christmas break, I wanted to finish out with some major outfits. So Sunday night I went through my closet and picked out pieces that are my favorite wintertime wear. I chose seven different major articles that scream Christmas or winter. Having themes to your outfits make them so much easier to pick out. However themes does not mean a vest for every holiday! Monday and Tuesday of this week are supposed to be the coldest days. I decided to go with my red suede skinny pants for Monday. They are insane. When I first saw them I was not too sure about them, then I tried them on and fell in love! I wanted to keep the rest of my outfit pretty basic so I went with a black sweater, gray scarf, and black scrunch booties. What else says Christmas like red pants you know?

Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas

This Friday we had a big basketball game. The theme was ugly Christmas sweaters. Well, I did not want to go too tacky for school. So, I went with dark wide jeans, black scoop neck shirt, cream, black sequin trim cardigan, Burberry scarf, black booties, and a giant red bow! Insanity, I know. I am just so in love with that bow. It is so over the top, and just set off my outfit. Now for the tacky student section outfit. Total red sequin dress, black tights, over the knee boots, leather over sized cardigan, belted with a silver sequin belt, red feather gloves. This was serious, as was the domination by the basketball team. Half time involved a conga line, my idea! I just love winter sports!

Boards Night

This Thursday was Boards Night. We presented our projects that we have spent endless hours on, tonight. After school I would be running around getting everything set up so I wanted to make sure and wear something I could move in. I went with skinny jeans, cognac embroidered boots, a cream shirt, a scarf with a big navy flower on it, and I ended up wearing my bomber jacket most of the day. I got everything set up then it was time to get ready for the presentation. I wanted to make sure and look professional. I was not going to wear the same thing I wore for homecoming, but in the end it was still pretty similar. I wore my red blazer, a black pencil skirt, black ribbed tights, black heels, and a black camisole underneath my blazer. I went with pearl and ruby jewelry. Classic!

Senior Moment

Well, I have waited too long. I cannot remember what I wore Wednesday for the life of me. Maybe it will come to me later and I will edit this post. I do remember what I wore to the basketball game where the theme was Southmont attire. That means, country attire. I went with skinny jeans, an orange plaid shirt, and black cowboy boots. Our theme worked, and we won the game! I am keeping this one short so I will not forget Thursday and Friday!

I tried to make Tuesday's outfit a little better that Monday's, I guess I was just ill about how cold it was. This Tuesday I went with over the knee boots! I have only wore them one other time this year, and they surprise me on how warm they are. I wore these black suede boots with basic skinny jeans, a black tee, under a blue long cardigan, with a checked blue white and black scarf. This morning it was still freezing so I went with my blue pea coat. I felt very cozy in this outfit! My over the knee boots can my folded down to just regular boots, but I think they kind of look like pirate boots, so I normally do not wear them like that.  Over the knee boots are a fabulous item to be on anyone's list this Holiday season.

In the Freezing State

I am not a friend of cold weather. One, it's is just cold, everywhere you go, and it takes forever to get warm again; Two, my hair stays staticy non stop; and Three I have to make sure I am ready early enough to have time for me or my brother to start the car to warm up. So on this freezing Monday, I went with warm over cute, ek. I wore a long sleeve charcoal v neck basic tee, a coral to pink fade scarf, a long sleeve black cardigan, and a black crop pea coat. I wore this with dark wide jeans (over long johns) wool socks (my feet still got cold) and black booties. On the way to school I wore my black leather and cashmere gloves and over sized gray beanie. It is not supposed to warm up until Friday, so no promises on how to rate my coming outfits.

Seeing Stripes

When I picked out my outfit this morning I did not think that I had already worn stripes once this week. It seems like a lot of times I get in the zone for a certain something with my outfits like wearing blue everyday or wearing really out of the box pieces or stripes! I am still not feeling to well today, so I went with wide jeans, a black tee under a navy and white button cardigan, black flats, and a black fleece scarf. Not having Spartan Fridays is making picking out my outfits much harder than I expected. Thank goodness we will start having Spartan days for basketball games though. Hopefully I will get to feeling better over the weekend and put a little more effort into my outfits.

A Shimmery Presentation

Thursday I had to present my Graduation Project on yoga to my English class. I still was not feeling to well, but if I did not go and present then I fail, so I did not really have a choice. We get graded on what we wear. The outfit is supposed to be professional and classy. I knew this portion of the presentation would be a breeze. I went with silver shimmery turtleneck tucked into a basic black pencil skirt, a must for every woman's closet, with black hose, and red heels for a pop! Insanity. I also wore a black velvet scarf. I pulled my hair back into a ponytail so it would not have to worry about messing with my hair. I was going to wear my Versace silver and black glasses; but I got nervous right before I presented and I forgot to put them on. But I got an awesome grade so no biggy. Now I have to find an even better outfit for when I present in front of the judges, because there is no way I am wearing the same thing.

Take a Sick Day

Wednesday I woke up and had no voice. My nose was running, and I have yet to catch it, I was sneezing every five minutes, ect. There was no way I was going to make it to first period. So I laid back down for a few more hours and forced myself to go in to second. At this point, what I was wearing was my last concern, I just knew it was freezing outside, so I wanted something warm and comfortable. I went with a basic pair of jeans, a gray long sleeve half button up tee under a navy oxford hoodie under a cream down vest with a fur hood. I also wore a scarf. This is definitely my most casual outfit, but hey, every now and then we all take sick days.
