Monday Madness...

I feel like all I ever do is run around. Today was no exception. Between work, school, and all these organizations that I'm trying to be an "active member" in, I need to take a moment to breathe. This week has been especially crazy because I have been practicing non stop for my second spoken word this Friday. If you happen to be in Lubbock this Friday, you should stop by. I'll post the flier below. (=

Second time around...

Second day of school. Nothing special. Just trying to hit the ground running. However, I did find out that all my professors are crazy this semester. My classes seem pretty straight forward. If I do not make a 4.0, I must have not gone to class at all. I am excited for this semester though. I can already feel the great things to come. I did show my face at the Mentor Tech workshop today. It was about studying styles. I think I've heard it about 3 times, so I left after I helped clean up.

Side note: Isn't Shamaya doing an amazing job? She really is learning fast. Ana is terribly consumed by school so she doesn't have the time to come out and play. Teeheehee... *cries a little on the inside*

Outfit of the day...

This was something I had on earlier in the week, but never got around to posting about. It was a cute and simple outfit that I loved. These shoes are so much fun, especially when you're on the bus bored, waiting for your stop. I feel like you should try to have a statement item or a conversation starter. You'd be surprised how many friends these pair of shoes have made me. The only unfortunate thing is I cannot seem to recall where I purchased many of these items from. I will update this post if it comes to mind later on.

Shout out to my roommate, Ana, for these amazing pictures. I keep telling her she should go into photography. What do you guys think?

Outfit of the day...

As I was getting dressed, I realized that it was freezing outside. I have found that when the whether is acting up, menswear is the best answer. It allows for tons of layering. The more, the better. As you will see, that's where most of my inspiration came from. Just make sure people don't mistake you for a sir through out the day. Sorry if the pictures are kind of dark. It was a late night photo shoot.

Outfit Of The Day...

This morning when I woke up, it was freezing outside. So I looked for an outfit that was cute, comfortable, and allowed me to layer as many clothes in my closet that I could. I was freezing while I was on my way to work, however, I did look cute. I was just glad when the sun decided to show its face.
