Thrifting

Today my best friend Lauren and I went estate sale shopping! After hitting up the estate sales we visited my grandma, went to lunch, and shopped at savers.
This was a big day because Lauren has been the estate sale bad luck charm until now. Today is the first time Lauren has really been to a good one. I bought tons of stuff I am excited to share so be sure to come back tomorrow!

what I wore: star events regionals

 Why hello friends!  Today is a great day!  I missed school to compete in star events and guess what!?  I got silver!  How ecstatic am I?  Well.. very!  I really was unprepared due to procrastination, but state isn't for months, so I have so much extra time!  My goal for state?  Gold!

The dress code for star events was pretty strict- black skirt to the knee, white, black, or red blouse.  It left me a little room for creativity so I decked myself out in vintage, of course!
I am so excited to share my dress with you, but I want to wait until I fix a couple things on it and wear it on Valentine's day first!

what I wore: the eve of star events area competition

Yes, the time has come to stop the procrastination.  The time to make everything for star events has come and gone.  Why am I still not ready?  


I never finished the poster I needed(yesterday's project), and on top of that I need to make a heart shaped hat and flash cards!

what I wore: procrastination

  
My best friend Lauren, (who has a blog now!) told me today in AP art that I don't write enough on my blog. I post often, just not enough words are used.  And I she is right!  I can never get my thoughts to come across well in writing.  my sarcasm doesn't translate well.  But starting now I will try to do better!  

So where is procrastination in this outfit post?  That it even exists, my friends.  Procrastination is written all over. I should currently be working on a poster and crocheting a scarf for Star Events.  (The competition I'm sewing for)  Did I mention it's on Wednesday!?  Everything has to be done tomorrow after school, which puts me in a bit of a panic.  So- tonight I crochet, tomorrow in my two sewing classes I assemble a poster. Wish me luck!

Sewing day

My friend Sierra, whom I met through my first job, asked me to help her sew a dress for her senior pictures. Today (in addition to playing in my vintage clothes and jewelry) we picked out and bought the fabric, pinned and cut out the pattern, and I sewed the darts.  This is my first time ever sewing for someone so the pressure is on!
