queenelizabeth 's thoughts:

So I’ve been kind of MIA for a while, although in my defense, it’s been a crazy couple of days (or, by this point, more like 5 days.) I’ve been really busy, though.
Some highlights of the past few days: I went to a fashion show, woke up obscenely early, ate at IHOP for the first time ever, won a medal, discovered mylifeisaverage.com, contemplated entering Teen Vogue’s outfit contest, won a Chic Reward, crammed for my English final, flipped through a Sears-Roebuck catalog from 1965 (and drooled over all the dresses and swimsuits), and tried to dress more simply.

Today (Monday) the focus was color, since the combination of baggy tee and tight skirt has only been repeated about a billion times on the internet. So I wore obnoxious bright cotton candy colors and tied my zipper headband in a bow, and there you have it. Cotton candy chic.
