Cheaper than Teen Vogue



So I was flipping through the pages of the august issue of Teen Vogue with Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas on the cover. In the glossy pages of next months mag the "Camp Rock" stars are decked head to toe in jean. The August 10' issue features the latest trends in denim. While shopping I came across jean jackets that resemble the ones in Vogue to "T". Denim button downs and jackets seem to be in so I figured why spend $69 on Demi's DKNY jacket when I can get the look for less from Bargain World. If I've learn one thing from fashion its that its not always labels and price tags.

Guys with Good Fashion???



Since I take my fashion very serious wouldn't it be common sense to only date guys with good fashion sense. The other day I was watching Sonny With Chance and I saw the gorgeous actor named Brandon Mychal Smith who plays Nico Harris. Other than his amazing smile he had the most amazing sense of style that I had ever seen on a man(let alone a teenage boy). I know the show has stylists and stuff like that but I've seen him dress for red carpet events and he's a sharp dresser. Most guys are confined to basketball shorts and wife beaters. I ask myself this question all the time. Why is it that most men don't take clothing choices seriously? Even the least attractive man could up his hottest factor by trading his "White Tee" for a plaid button.

Cute in Sweatpants???


So I've always noticed that some girls look really cute in sweats. My definition of comfort is pair of loose fitting jeans and a college tee shirt. When it comes to just lounging around the house sweatpants, boxers, and basketball shorts are my go to bottoms but I have the hardest time wearing them in public. Miley Cyrus and Vanessa Anne Hudgens always look stunning in their Victoria Secret Pink sweats but even in those I don't think i look good. I think I have some preconceived notion in my head that to look cute I must looked like I stepped of the streets of 5th avenue. Occasionally I'll build up the courage to wear them to school or to the grocery store. Most people might find it ridiculous that I'm not comfortable in sweats but I'll stick to my yoga pants instead.

Faking It!!!!!


So I've always had kind of a straight up-down body. No matter the type of clothes I try wearing I always seem to have the figure of an 8 year old boy. About a year ago I started seeing the cinch waist trend on many different body types. This was the answer to all my body's prayers. Since then I've been collecting waist belts to give me the appearance of curves. The belts give the appearance of hips but I still keep my athletic frame. Today while at the thrift store with my bud Brandy I came across a cute loose fitting navy blue sweater-dress. The way it feel over my body was not flattering at all so I came up with the idea to cinch the middle with an old looking belt. I found a perfect green one with a golden cowboy inspired buckle. It gave my body the best illusion of an hourglass shape. Now I'm not saying theres something wrong with not having curves but we could use more of them.

Big Decisions




So every summer I spend most of my time evaluating what'[s coming up in my life. Sophomore year went by so quickly and now I'm nervous about junior year. This year grades are most important and what colleges I'm looking into. I wonder what school I'll be attending. I'm trying not to stress but the only thing I want first and for most is to go back to KW!!!!!!
