white crow

i have been searching high and low for the perfect pair of overalls. they NEVER fit me right. always baggy in the wrong spots or they don't sit right on my frame. then i found these perfect little beauties from white crow. they are perfectly perfect. they fit as if they were custom made just for me. paired with a little crop top, and cozy socks, theres nothing better! (i MAY have worn them 4 days in row before taking them off...maybe)

low ride em

i remember growing up a tomboy. i wanted to wear boy underwear and low ride my JNCO jeans and wear the baggiest top i could find. i did not want to be a girl. i wore my hair back in a tight ponytail and i remember people running by me pulling my hair-tie out so they could see me with my hair down. i eventually (with the help of my best friends) transformed my look - however i feel like i still identify with that tomboy-esque vibe, and lucky for me, this time around its in style.

i want to leave.

there was no harm in taking aim. even if the target was a dream.

sometimes i wonder why i make the choices i make. why i choose to do the same thing every single day for the last 15+ years and get nowhere. i think the answer is because i rather spend everyday pushing towards something - even if it never comes to fruition. in the end, at least i will know i truly gave something my all. and i don't think many people can say that.

wolves

in each of us, there are two wolves. one is evil; it is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego. one is good; it is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.

which wolf wins? the one you feed the most.

crops and leather

its still really hard for me to believe summer is gone. in the transition months i tend to pretend its still summer and wear crop tops under all my layers and coats. a little bit of hidden summer, hope that some warm weather will return.

two pieces are better than one.

i really have a thing for two piece sets. the broken romper, i like to call it. its just so easy to put together an outfit that is one piece or two pieces that match. #amiright? i have so much clothes and i can never figure out how to properly put together something that looks good. when the two pieces match and come already put together, its like, simple outfit - done!
