Long Time, No See.

    While it may be a brand spanken' new year, the weather this past half-week has been gloriously warm and sunny. And I wanted to embrace this beautiful weather with open arms and put my new Christmas clothes to good use, but you know what happens when you assume.... you get a low of 38 degrees. Both the sandals and thin lace skirt I was wearing couldn't really stand up to that frigidity.

Jacket- Forever 21~T- shirt-Target~Skirt- Forever 21~The black slip is my mom's.
   I would also like to state that this picture is completely by accident. I don't know what that supposed gracefulness is, because me picking up the skirt is me fixing it, and my my hair is conveniently hiding the fact that I'm spitting it out of my mouth.But I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this picture. Any who back on subject.
   I saw this skirt while shopping in the mall yesterday and completely fell in love. (Sorry Joseph Gordon Levitt, you are now in 2nd place. I hope you don't take this demotion too hard.) This skirt  inspired me in so many ways. Today I went for Florence Welch, but I'm excited to go in Stevie Nicks or Lucille Ball direction.Trust me it  looks alot better in my head than how it sounds. And by the way this skirt is just lace,so by doing that opens up a lot more choices of how to wear it.Like today I just wore it with a black slip,but you can also wear a skirt like this with a dress, leggings, or another skirt . Since the lace is so thin, it's easier to layer with most items of clothing.
   Up next are these SHOES. They are absolutely wonderful, and a great alternative to normal wedges or sandals. They are also really comfortable, but add height. ( I'm supermodel tall in these bad boys.)((Typing that sound a lot weirder than saying it.)) And excuse my genetically janky feet...

    The next thing I recieved is this bracelet from my sister. It's the Trinity Knot, which is a pagen symbol for Maiden, Mother, and Crone, but she chose to interpret it as Daughter, Sister, Mother. Which makes it more meaningful to me personally. And according to her I can't take the bracelet off or a puppy will die. So this bracelet is staying on for a long time.
 So that's it for today, and I'll be back as soon as possible.
