In need of a pick me up!

Today is the day after spring fling here at school. Basically its going to be hangovers galore among the students. I'm on that bandwagon right along with them. Before I go and get some delicious eggs and bacon, I decided I needed a little pick me up in the form of online browsing! After an hour or so of perusing the Forever 21 new arrivals, I've come up with a few select items that caught my eye. I'll start with the shirt that started this little tangent.
I saw this and I instantly wanted it. Not only because its cute, but because next year it will be true. My best friend since 5th grade will be studying abroad next year in Paris (Extremely jealous!). Her and I traveled there, along with several other places in Europe, right after we graduated from high school. It was one of our favorite places and we vowed to go back, and that lucky duck gets to live there! I always love clothes that have a story to go along with them, whether its hand-me-downs, or clothes with significant meaning.

Now onto the next shirt! This one has the design of the shirts I mentioned in an earlier entry, the cut out shoulder look. This shirt also has somewhat of a relevance as well, but not as deep and symbolic as the Paris tank.

One thing people who know me well can say is that I love to dance. Now don't get me wrong I'm not a good dancer, like the ones you see breaking it down on the dance floor in music videos. I just love to move to the beat, and don't really care if I make a fool out of myself. Its just one of those things in life you have to learn to enjoy! Plus just recently my sorority volunteered at an ARCh social. ARCh is a  program for adults with mental disabilities. The social we volunteered at was a dance, and it was a blast. I was breaking it down on the dance floor with some awesome people, and it was the best feeling knowing that they were so carefree, and that I myself could be carefree and just let loose for a night. I would buy and wear this shirt in honor of that feeling.

Speaking of my sorority, I found this cute blazer that I could wear to my sorority meetings. We have a chapter meeting once a week, and we have to dress in business casual attire. Its always nice to have a new article of clothing to wear to meetings to spruce up my dull wardrobe.

Plus I think it would be cute with a pair of jeans or jean shorts as well!



This next pick is a cute outfit for going out. My 21st Birthday is coming up, and this would be something I would wear if I were going clubbing. I love the one shoulder aspect, but its not solid so it doesn't make your body look uneven. This is helpful for me, because one of my shoulders is lower than the other, and the one shoulder shirts can emphasize that.
I'm going to end this entry with a piece of jewelry that I saw in the store and fell in love with, but I was on a budget and was not able to add it to my collection just yet. I still love it, and I have every intention of going back and buying it.


I cannot describe how deep of a relevance this necklace has to my life! This isn't an online journal, so I won't bore you with too many of my life stories, just know that this necklace would be more to me than just another piece of jewelry. 


I'm HUNGRY, so its time to go get some grub. I'm a team captain for the relay for life event tonight, so I should probably try and fit a nap in. Its also a good friend of mine's birthday dinner tonight, so I have to try and figure that one out. Ahh.... the daily stresses of life, but that's what makes it worth living right? 



I'll leave you with this thought to ponder today.
Have a good day, and try to do something nice for someone today!
