Finally!

So when I got home today I found a package with my name on it, but the weird thing was I hadn't ordered anything. I opened it anyways and I pulled out a shirt and I was like alright I definitely didn't order this. There was a letter inside and I pulled it out and it said I'd won one of the online contest I entered. I swear to you I almost died a little inside.

Who Wants to Be Pretty Anymore?

I wore these old pair of Nike shoes that I'd swiped from my friend a while back. I'd worn them with a tutu (tulle) skirt and a stretchy crop top that ultimately made me look like a ballerina. Seeing as though girly isn't exactly what I was looking for I wanted to throw off everyone's perspective and wear a pair of kicks. Little did I know one pair of tennis shoes could get so many "Why did you wear those?" Before the day was out at least everyone I came in contact with looked at my top half  of me happily and then as they made their way down became very much confused. 

 In one instance I sat in math class waiting for my teacher to began the lesson, one of my friends approached me and asked what I had in mind when I put together my outfit. I blatantly told her that I had no intention at all of looking pretty, because I didn't really like dressing to be pretty. She gave me a sort of concerned look and asked who doesn't want to be pretty? 

I hadn't really thought about being pretty when I dressed myself for a while. Who do I have to be pretty for? Why do I want to be pretty? Pretty isn't just a state of mind it's a way you dress one way I'm not much a fan for. But to each his own they say right. 

Mod Makeup and a Few off Topic Shenanigans

I've been in a makeup rut lately. After seeing pictures of Twiggy, Audrey Hepburn and Marina I felt the sudden urge to try a new take on my makeup life and go oh so mod. I've tested it out for a few days and truthfully the best outcome I had actually had me looking more Cleopatra than 60s super model. But I'll just keep trying I guess. 

Oh and by the way a few new wonders walked into my life recently, one being a rocking tube of brown lipsitck (specifically Coffee Bean by Revlon). Works great and applies smooth, truthfully I was looking for darker but the lipstick is great.

Also I got a new patch for my jacket. It's a gorgeous Sex Pistols Patch and fits perfectly on my front jacket pocket! I wore it to school one day last week with a pair of boy camo shorts (Best pants I've ever worn in my life!) and there was alot of speculation that it read Sex Positions. This of course had me laughing and everyone else a little wide eyed, but I'm glad I got to stir up a little ruckus at school.

Freckles

I don't know what it is about them, but I am in love with freckles. I just think they are the cutest thing and they just add something extra to peoples faces. Most people that have them hate them (which I don't quite understand), but seeing as I only have 2 very tiny ones that you have to have a magnifying glass to see I guess I never will.  But here's to my freckle love and to all the homies that were lucky enough to have some graze their face.
