I'm not one to wear high heels and sweaters together, but when I do it looks something like this. When I stepped back from the mirror after getting dressed, all I could think of was Beauty and the Geek . Remember the now defunct show that Ashton Kutcher made in the early 00's? It was a pretty awful reality show... that I just couldn't get enough of. I'd say my outfit has a perfect balance of stereotypical geekiness with a lot of feminine thrown in. I'm also playing the role of nerd quite well as I just looked up book lights on the internet - so I will never have to decide if I should read in bed or just go to sleep. I also made a video while wearing this look and titled it "The Ultimate Boyfriend". Watch it below or on my official YouTube page . Outfit details - Sweater, $1 (thrifted) - Collared top, $2.29 (thrifted)  - Skirt, $2 (thrifted) - Tights, $2 (Shop-Ko) - Barbie shoe earrings, handmade ( currently for sale in my Etsy shop ) - Flats, $5 (thrifted)...

Does wearing orange lipstick count as taking Vitamin C? If so, then I'm going to kick this cold in the butt. I can't actually have most of the medicine needed to take care of a cold because of my stomach issues ; I've tried a couple cough drops and ended up nauseous in the end. I'll take a snotty nose over nausea any day! On Saturday, I pushed through feeling like death, put on clothes, and functioned like a regular member of society. When you look good, you feel good, right? No one will ever know that I've stuffed tissues up the sleeves of this fabulous floral blazer or that my foundation was discreetly covering a red face. Except you because I just told you on my blog. Hey, I'm not very good at keeping my own secrets!

Who knew getting out of bed on Black Friday would be so rough? (Ok, all of of America knows, I'm sure.) All I wanted to do was hit up the Goodwill $1.23 clothing sale and a cold snuck up on my in the night. It took all my sunshine with it. Thus, Black Friday turned into a very dark day for me. But I pulled myself together, throwing on this look that consisted of really comfy pieces + a cardigan that doubles as a freakin' blanket and I walked in & out of that sale like a boss. I even got a compliment on my blanket  sweater. Rest assured I'm doing what I can to get un-sick very fast. That means lots of ice-cream, Netflix, board games, reading, and maybe even some sleep.. if I find the time.
