okay yeah this is a tad late, but i found it in zara when i was in argentina for 39 pesos (LESS then 13 dollars) so i had to have it. plus its cool, its like intertwined, not just cutout.

my camera died so i cant take any photos until i get new batteries, sorry

oh i was wearing blacks boots. haha

okay so i havent updated in forever, and i am sorry.
i will soon, i think
i just need new clothes, desperately!
does anyone know any good places in buenos aires, argentina to get clothes? going there for christmas break.

in other news, i bought influence, the book by mary kate and ashley olsen. it’s amazing! totally inspiring. it’s basically all interviews, but they are so so so good. it really makes you want to do something creative with your life and push yourself forward.

i took this picture last year and then did some bull on photoshop. yayyy

so, all the americans still have to wait a month, but for canadians, its now, its today, and its hard to figure out what to wear.
since the uglies are all american, im guessing they wont do an article in time for the canadians. as in now. so i decided to try and help out, just because i myself am having trouble choosing what to wear, and im hoping this will help, haha. im hopefully changing this turkey thing to an actual outfit post later on.
so here’s some tips, if you can think of any more, go ahead and comment!

1. Comfortable Pants
No, you don’t want to admit it, but yes, you’re going to be eating like a pig today. It’s tradition, get over the fat content and just eat! You’ll have time to burn it all off as your week starts and you want to die because you still feel sick from eating, and you have to go to work/school (hell, school IS work).
However, when you’re eating, you do want to be more comfortable, so you can, you know, stuff yourself to the fullest! Leggings or tights would be a decent idea. Just make sure you dont choose that ONE pair that makes you have muffin top (lovehandles) because, oh my lord, those will get worse once you get eating and you’ll be very uncomfortable. Really, any pair of comfy pants is good, just please don’t wear stretchy sweatspants. Or any kind of sweatpants.

2. The Shirt
This will help the pants area as well. Just wear a chic, baggy shirt! If it really comes to the worst in the pants area, unbutton them. ;) Who would be able to tell? You’re wearing a baggy shirt and seating down, and no one is looking under the table to get a good view of your crotch. Another thing this might help wold be the inevitable bloating. You are eating a lot of foods that will make your stomach momentarily&embarrassingly pop up, so the baggy shirt will def help.

3. Accesories
I seriously would not wear a scarf. Or take it off while you’re eating. It’ll just get in the way, you reach over the table for something and it’ll get in the food.. ugh. No. I would also stay away from belts, considering they’ll make it THAT much obvious when you unbutton your pants, hah. If you tie a scarf around your head/wrist, i think that’ll be fine. I’m also thinking headbands will be a good idea – get your hair away from your face. Don’t wear annoying bracelets, wear the ones that stay in place. Don’t wear long necklaces! Again, if you reach for something, they might end up in the food.

5. Shoes
Really, go all out. You’re sitting down. Perfect time to break in that new pair of heels.

6. Considering the Family
I’m guessing your family won’t be too pleased seeing you in your sexiest outfit, or your high runway fashion one either. Just consider that they are there, you’re with other family members, and they wouldn’t want you to be marked the freak of the family who came to thanksgiving wearing a backless dress, alright? So be sensible.

woah that was a lot. I think i know what to wear now, hopefully. Happy eating! :)

just casual i guess. wore it to school and put the cardigan on after for hanging out with friends.

with skirt
i need to fix the way i put the shirt in the skirt, it looks gross haha.
please dont mind my ugly tired face:)

even though this shirt is supposed to be baggy, i still think its too big for me.
just messing around w/ how to wear a mens shirt.

im so terrified, for my job, we have to take a test on their menu, know all of it, all the ingredients, and get 100% or we dont get the job.
