Blogtober Day 7: Shopping Splurge

I knew it would eventually happen. I feel lack luster about today's prompt and writing but I committed.

October 7: Share links to your favorite online shops, preferably with a few photos of your favorite items in each shop.

So, honestly, I don't really online shop. I mostly online creep. My favorite stores to shop in are Target, Gap and Old Navy. (Still on that poor college kid budget...Gap is a splurge!)

Most of my outfit inspiration or desires come from... where else? ...Pinterest. I love to explore Anthropolgie (outside of my budget) and I do spend quite a bit of time on Forever 21. Also the #ootd tag on Instagram is a personal favorite. I like to be inspired, search my wardrobe to re-create looks. 

Like I said, not a big online shopper. However, I like to be able to catch inspiration at any moment of the day. 

Yours xx 

PS In honor of the first snow storm of the year, I will share a poem I wrote during our last snow storm from winter...from April. Don't you just love South Dakota weather??

South Dakota, April Eighth

Slickery sleet

Slithers like Snakes

Seep in cement cracks

Snickers at your stylish shoes

Sounds of snow sink your hopes

Spring’s loss to the second set of storms

Sinks your souls to sudden sadness

Fashion Friday: February 8th, 2013

(FYI So far, every week that I've typed out the year I've typed last year..whoops. Good thing I proofread, ay?)

Happy Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week everyone. NYC is currently suffering through quite the snow storm, which I can relate to because SD is too! Enough with the snow, let's go ahead and kick off our Friday with a bit of inspiration that I have on my wallpaper of my desktop that I read and think about every day as I do that last mirror check before taking on the day.

“Dress how you feel and love what you wear, because at the end of the day you have got to wear and feel great in it. Great style isn't about looking picture perfect all the time. You wear your clothes. Your clothes should never wear you.” --Kelly Osbourne

Along with the quote, I'd like you to check this out. Kelly Osbourne has her own style, regardless of if I like it or consider her my style icon, I am enviable of her ability to identify something that she is particularly inspired by and stick to being herself, no matter the circumstance. 

Now, images and videos! 

Step one...

Good LBD. Love LOVE the embellishment!

I like the all black with an accent scarf!

I call this "Fox on the Run."

Real fear, people.

Scale of 1-10: How much do I want this shirt? 10. 10. 10! 

I'd like to introduce you all to Little Mix. Watch the video below then go download their US single "Wings." Four girls, strong individual styles yet, all complementary of each other.

Yours x

Oh and Happy Grammy Weekend!
