Twin Tuesdays 02; Overalls

For our second twin tuesdays~*~(edit: whoooops accidentally got confused with Alex and wrote out the wrong post... it's okay doe cause we're gonna just switch next Tuesday!) Alex and I wore the denim overalls/dungarees we picked up from Addition Elle a few months ago! They are seriously so cute and super comfy! We decided to pair it with fun food shirts(ultimate fat girls duh!)!

I was walking through the mall myself the other day and I was soo sooo proud of myself for leaving empty handed(being a shopping addict, this is a very hard and rare task), that is up until I saw this super adorable shirt peaking out at me from Journeys.... I just kinda couldn't say no.... it has cupcakes and donuts!!!

Forever21+ Floral Maxi Dress

Last week before I decided it would be a good idea to lighten my hair(I'm currently in the process of my fourth bleaching :'( my hair is sadly super brittle, and yes I know how bad it is for my hair but I plan on trying to bring it back to some kind of life when I return home tomorrow evening). Luckily it's finally closer to the shade I want and since I'm using ton of those purple/toner shampoos it's been taking out the ugly brassy orange shades and making it more blonde/silver!

I love the cottage so much! So many beautiful flowers/animals/sunsets ahh just absolutely love it here. I can go for a stroll and bask in the sunlight and beautiful plants without running into anyone, I just kinda love the quiet and peace here. I've been literally enjoying myself way to much and I'm a little sad to be coming home tomorrow(sadly I won't get to come here till fall at least).

I picked up this gorgeous floral maxi dress from Forever21 over a month ago and I seriously love it! It was seriously a steal at like $18 I believe! I thought the dress matched perfectly with the beautiful orangey flowers that are growing everywhere.
 

Hangtimes with Erica

Last week Erica of Erica Exposed and I decided to have an impromptu shopping trip around the mall before grabbing some Japanese for lunch! It was funny because Erica actually came down to my area to pick up a few things when normally we always hang downtown since everything's more convenient/Erica lives there too! It was odd but super fun since I got to show her a few spots in my area(the Japanese restaurant in this super random neighborhood is seriously soooo delicious)!

It was really hot this day so I decided to keep it simple with a tank top and sunnies from Forever21, skirt from New Look, necklace was a gift from Jayson, bag from Nastygal, and my holographic flats from PLNDR. I felt kinda like I had a weird shiny floral day maybe? I don't know haha I kinda just pulled everything together last second since Erica was waiting at the station and I couldn't find the initial outfit we had planned. :'(

breaking all the rules

Last week I wore my tribal maxi skirt from Forever 21+ and decided to step out of my ~*~comfort~*~ zone and wear a more revealing top; my cutout grid/cage like crop top from Urban Outfitters!

I'll admit I felt really nervous stepping out in 1. no bra and 2. barely a back on my top, I ended up totally werkin it! I really loved the combo and I got a ton of compliments too!
Unfortunately, not everyone was loving my new look as much as me. So much so, said person decided to throw in their rude and unnecessary comments. "Fat/Plus girls can't wear revealing tops like that in the back because.... and you shouldn't post these photos because you look terrible.." I gotta say I was really taken aback by it, a comment like that over a year ago might have ended up with me going back inside to change.

It ended up making me second guess these photos but, looking at them today all I can say is I really can't believe you said that and I literally don't give a fuck about what you think or don't think I should wear. Your words are exactly that, just words. I will wear revealing cut out tops, I will wear short shorts, I will wear anything I want too and you can just fuck off. Anyone/Everyone can and should wear whatever they want!!! I seriously mean this, don't conform to what society tells you, you should be wearing. Wear what you want and what you love!

Here is me, breaking alllllll the rules; mostly-bare back(aka revealing my back fat), my tummy is showing, my arms are freeee and there is a giant slit in my maxi skirt. ^______^

Twin Tuesdays 01; Black & White

Last Wednesday Alex from Not Afraid to Wear Heels got together for our now monthly shoot day! I absolutely love these days with Alex because 1. We always half attempt at getting work done and then somehow...not finish and 2. our shenanigans are seriously toooooooo much fun so it's all worth it! I'm sure we will one day finish our work plans haha.

This is our first official "twin tuesdays" post!!!~*~*~
Since we get together to take outfit photos anyways it kinda made sense for us to post them together! Thus, the start of our ~*~twin tuesdays~*~(we should be posting them up every tuesday!)

Our first look was kinda just put together, since Alex came over to my place she didn't have a matching option and borrowed a whole look; She's wearing my shades & fave purse from Urban Outfitters, peplum polka dot dress from Forever21 and a collar from ebay!
I am wearing my sunnies & cutout boots from Forever21, dress from the urban renewal section at Urban Outfitters, my Riccardi Lips Clutch from Aldo and my fave crystal necklace from Kastor & Pollux!

shades of cool

This weekend was Jayson's moms birthday! They had planned a bbq in the park but, unfortunately it started raining so they ended up staying in and having the party inside. We stopped by quickly before we headed up to ze cottage(where I am right now ^__^).

I had a hard time choosing an outfit that would be comfy for the long car ride, I ended up choosing an outfit based on the song I was listening too haha. I wore all shades of blue; my crop top from Urban Outfitters, my denim circle skirt from New Look and I ended up pairing it with my new peace sign socks with my fave heels!

I also decided to dye the tips of my hair pink that morning, I actually really missed dyeing my hair.
I went to a super strict high school that didn't allow colored hair, I then started working jobs that wouldn't allow it either. I've actually only gotten about two small time periods prior to now that I was able to dye my hair(unnatural colours) without any consequences. I wish I dyed it sooner! I actually plan on bleaching it from higher up and then recoloring it after. I have a ton of dyes already that neeed to get done asap!

feeling blue

By the end of my adventurous day with Alex(part one, two & three), I was pretty exhausted.
I decided to end the day super comfy and chose to wear my beautiful maxi from Forever21+! 
I then paired it with my two new vintage pieces, my new mood ring and fun crystal wire bracelet. I also chose to throw on my necklace from Urban Outfitters and my No She Didn't Lippy from Lime Crime. I love this lipstick so much, I actually am a huge fan bright fun lipsticks so this one was one of my first purchases, I am seriously in love with it!

How do you feel about coloured lippys? Let me know!
