Rockstar 101

I wore this outfit a couple days ago when the boyfriend & I went to do the last of our Christmas shopping. I am so relieved that I am FINISHED with my shopping, as the malls are so crazy & people are rushing around in a hurry (or they don't walk at all which is equally frustrating). I had this outfit in mind as soon as I opened my closet; I knew I wanted to be comfortable, and there's nothing more comfortable than a cotton T and jeans! 

 Jeans (unpictured): Parasuco
Blazer: Suzy Shier
Chain & pearl necklace: I forget (so helpful).

Boots: Payless Shoes. Am I the only one who feels like a bad ass super woman wearing motorcycle boots? Yes? Oh, okay.

I got this shirt last year at a Rihanna concert Brandon & I went to. It was amazing!

PS. The Jay Z & Kanye West concert was amazing too. Pretty sure I died and went to heaven several times last night. However, now my throat is so sore, my head is aching & my legs feel so heavy! I am currently laying in bed and plan on doing so until I have to get ready for work at 5. All of my shifts this week are closing shifts, but I finally go back to the island on Friday to be with my family for Christmas! Hallelujah.

For the Love of Studs!

Studs are a fun way to let your inner punk rocker girl shine. You can find studs on anything now, from feminine blouses to heels, jackets, purses & everything in between. There are lots of options if you want to do it yourself too - I found plenty of YouTube videos on the subject, and the ideas are endless. Adding a couple studs to items you already own is an easy way to make an old find feel like a new treasure. Celebrities have also been loving the studs! Below are some celebrity stud lovers.

Happy Birthday to Me!

It's finally here. Yes, the most important day of all days. In fact, I heard it's going to be made into an official holiday (but that's just a rumor).

I'm 19 today! And yes, Rihanna was at my party. Who's that chick, who's that chick?

In all seriousness, I will have a birthday post up sometime soon. I have declared this week my birthday week, so celebrating is in order! :)

Fringe Benefits

1. I had a little photo shoot in the bathroom before I went to my sister's school dance recital. I could've sworn I've seen Lady Gaga do this pose before, and when I asked my sister she quite bluntly told me I was wrong. Well then. Perhaps it was Sailor Moon who did this (I happen to know this is correct, because I was the ultimate Sailor Moon fiend when I was younger).

2. Another silly shot! Clearly I have a modeling career. Oh what's that? I'm going to Milan for Fashion Week? Oh I'm so flattered! Ha...ha...I wish!

3. This is what I wore last night! I spent the day lounging around (still kind of recovering from some horrible food poisoning I managed to catch... Just my luck!) in this Rihanna T-shirt. It is ridiculously comfy, and although I haven't worn it too much, it has that I've-had-this-shirt-forever kind of feeling! This past summer Brandon and I went to a Rihanna concert and let me tell you this. FIERCE, FIERCE, FIERCE in every possible way! I am obsessed! Also, my skinny jeans by Pashu made an appearance in this outfit (as always), and the blazer I'm wearing was mentioned in another post - the perfect one I found for $1.25 at the thrift store! My boots are from Urban Planet and missing one of the heel caps... It sounds a little funny when I walk, but maybe I'm the only one who notices (although now people who see me will know this little secret)!

4. One of my favourite Zoya polishes. It's called Ruby and is the perfect red! It has just enough metallic sparkle, and the perfect red hue. I wore it over the holidays, but it's perfect year round - especially for spring!

5. A string of pearls... And two other chains. I forget where I found this necklace, but I know I got it for a good price! I'm the ultimate deal hunter (except when I get lured into buying Micabella mineral make up... One time, and one time ONLY)!

6. And my outfit du jour! I wore Pashu skinny jeans, Le Chateau fringe boots (and if you follow me on TWITTER (hint hint) you'll know that a frightening man carrying a bag of cans over his shoulder complimented me on them. I was flattered, kinda), and a striped shirt from Bluenotes. I didn't want to have too much going on up top while wearing these wonderful boots, so stripes it was!

Happy Friday everyone! I hope you all have a great weekend!
