Cougs vs those Utes

With it being the first home game of the season, everyone was SO pumped for the football game saturday night. Crazy fans + massive amounts of screaming + BYU pride = a LOT of energy at the game. But, alas, we could not keep up. It was...embarrassing really. Me? Go to BYU? Not after last night's game! C'mon Jake Heaps.

Dirty Utes.

Style in a Snapshot

Okay so I am ridiculously behind on posting my friends!

I wanted to do a daily style journal but this semester is already proving to be a busy one. But, so far, it has been awesome. Life is SO good. Here is a quick snapshot of some outfits I have worn recently. I am trying to update my look - ya know that more mature college look? :)

Friday Nights

Emily & I

Us girls at the concert

Friday night included a mini photo shoot beforehand then a rooftop concert in Provo. Definitely didn't know the bands playing but it was so much fun! I stood next to this really old guy.
"Um, excuse me..why are you here?" Haha I think he was just as excited to be there as the 20 somethings. :)

Sailor Thursday

Shirt: Charlotte Russe

Shorts: Kohls

Belt: Thrifted

Necklace: F21

Watch:Target

I love the sailor-esque theme of this outfit. Reminds me of my sweet summer vacation when I went sailing on a cruise to the picturesque Mexico! Don't we all wish we were on a beach right now? Raise your hand if you agree. I'm glad everybody's hand is up.

It is hot enough outside here in Provo that we should all be at the beach & not in class. What's up motha nature? Lets cool down a bit alright? Until I will have to continue my *knee length* shorts and sweat to the death.

School Has Begun!

I can't believe that 1) school has started and that 2) it is this HOT in Utah! I came to escape the heat & I think I just brought it along for the ride. It is hard to be modest in the heat - all you wanna wear is shorts or a bathing suit! ;) Being on campus and seeing people wear jeans and cardigans already is maddening. Aren't you dying!?

I am also a little obsessed with buns right now - did that sound weird? Buns buns buns. Haha I love the teased & messy bun look. So chic.

Here is to being modest & cute! In shorts I might add.

Shirt: Old Navy Shorts: Belk Necklace: F21 Belt: Thrifted

Trip to Utah

Perspective

People are often unreasonable,
illogical and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind,
people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful,
you will win some false friends and true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank,
people may cheat you;
Be honest anyway.

What you spend years building,
someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness,
they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today,
people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have,
and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis,
it is between you and God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
Mother Teresa

Homemade + Thrifted Sunday

Man, I felt like a million bucks today! And hey it's okay to feel that way sometimes because sometimes you feel like a hobo! It is okay to boost your self esteem. It's what keeps ya goin'! I wore my thrifted J.Crew gingham shirt with my homemade grey skirt. Ya, HOMEMADE! I am so proud of that skirt. It is actually cute! hehe. Paired it with nude/gold pumps from another consignment store( Plato's Closet) and my handy dandy watch from Target.

Here's to a fab Sunday!

Thrift Store Finds

I love a good bargain.

With being a college student and all, I am pretty broke! Today I found these beauties at some local thrift stores : Uptown Resale, NBC, & BearLee New. I spent about $25 at each store and just look at what I got! I would say mission accomplished :) I swear you get this thrill when getting something on sale. I hate when people look down on buying things at a thrift store. Obviously, they can be just as cute!

J. Crew gingham blouse - $10

Soft Pink Gap blouse - $4

Grey cardigan from New York & Company - $10

Two pairs of skinny jeans - Regular: $11 Black: $9

Shoes - White:$4 Black Wedges: $9

Chambray shirt(which I have been looking everywhere for!) - $7

White silk tank- $8

Happy thrifting!
