Sweats and a Tee-shirt aren't enough

| at 4:09 PM

*sigh* Ever have that feeling where you tried so hard to find something special for a extremely special even, say The First Day of Eighth Grade 2009, and you just couldn't no matter how many stores I went through, coupons you clipped, babysitting dollars you've saved? Well, we're in the same boat. I spent from 10:30 A.M. to 2:30 P.M. combing through my local mall desperate for The Outfit to appear before my eyes. Sadly, at the end of the day, all I ended up with was a bottle of Dancing Waters [or is it Waters Dancing...?] Bath and Body Works perfume. [insert very, very sad frowny face here].
Sure, I saw countless cute and affordable ensembles in my size, but the problem is that the clothes I pick out from the others as adorable, end up being too "Grown up" for me. For example, why would I go to Middle School wearing a pencil skirt, and cheetah print silk blouse with polished gold bangles, while the ideal 8th grade outfit is a pair of sweats and a Hollister logo tee. *another sigh*
My friends are beginning to notice my obsession with jewelry, and let me confess that the reason is namely because these are the only things I can use to dress up a pair of Sweats and Hollister tee, to make it fill my fashionista ego. Thus, I honestly cannot wait to grow up and grow into this ego of mine. Okay, I know when I'm older I will only wish to be younger, but that's then, and this is... now.
Any of you have this problem?
Yep, that was another one of my many rants. Ignore me if you choose.

Cutilicious Frutilicious!

Labels: , | at 12:58 PM

Haha. I thought these pics of fruits were ah-dorable, and totally worth sharing with you all via blog. Hey, don't just sit there and stare at this sentence, scroll down and look at the fruit!








Now for something that has to do with Fashion! haha.


Fashion of the Week


I adore this top, and think it might meet first day of school outfit potential. ;D
Ooh Btw, it's from lulu's, and is only 27 bucks! It's called a Bubble Gum Striped Top.

Gtg, hope you liked the fruit and stuff.

All that in a Recession [Neon, Neon, Neon!]

Labels: , , , | at 4:51 PM

Gosh, am I a bad blogger or what?
With my Mom's surgery and such, I have been running around like a crazy person for the past two weeks, and somehow dropped blogging from my juggled computer-life. :P
Well, I am back {I sure hope so!} and brought some new SMB Polls and new topics along with me!


Fashion/Recession{ista} Flair
Neon Colors

With the recession in full swing . . . .
Stores have been trying to rake in the cash by constantly bringing new trends back from the ashes. One of these trends would be, *drum roll pleaseeee* NEON COLORS.
This trend is one that I am quite fond of lets say. Mainly because it's easy to wear both fashionably, economically, and recession-omically. haha. Plus, since I am more of a Fashionista at heart, AND most of the clothes that I DESIRE, A) have a pricetag with too many zeros to tally up, or B) Three sizes too big. But, it is extremely easy to stroll into Delia*s and pick up a dozen tank tops in electric, neony colors and pair them with a pair of white, or dark washed jeans.
So, that's where most of us are left. If you were given the chance to wear crazy colors with comfort AND style, wouldn't you pounce on it?


TWO NEW POLLS *eek*

Yep, if you took a peak at our sidebar before even reading this post, KUDOS to you! :)
We have two new polls, a real step-up to our "Who Wore it Better" ones.
I was thinking of ways to get the coveted 20 followers {ooh look how far we've come over the summer!} that I had desired from the start, and polls earned it's way to the top. I saw the votes I had gathered with the WWIB polls, and I decided to have new, fresh polls every week, month,.... urgh. I will just post a new poll every now and then, okay? Just take a moment to let me know you all are out there and vote in them, okay?

A New Playlist for SMB!

Gosh, I change my taste in music like I change my blog templates! So, like the polls, I have moved on to a FASHIONISTA FRIENDLY playlist of songs. I don't usually like curse words in song, but they are so discreet, I think we will find a way to you know, live? haha.
Most of the songs are inspired from my FAVE movie at the moment, Devil Wears Prada. I treated myself to a movie night last week, and what did I see in the "Free Movie" section? Exactly what I was looking for in a movie.
The last two tracks inspired a poll which you will have to see AND listed to yourselves!


Thanks for your loving support!

fashionistaflaiirrrr,

Katy [xoxo]

Fashionista of the Month {JULY}

Labels: , | at 5:20 PM

Fashionista of the Month


For July, our Fashionista of the Month, is non other than Emma Watson. This is a bit about her from a Google source:


Emma Watson was born in Paris, France to Jacqueline Luesby and Chris Watson, English lawyers who lived in France at the time; she has a younger brother named Alex. She lived in Paris until age five, then moved with her mother and brother to Oxford, England.

Watson attended The Dragon School, a private preparatory school, until June 2003, when she moved to Headington School, a private all-girls school in Oxford. In June 2006, Watson sat GCSE examinations in 10 subjects, achieving eight A* and two A grades. She is studying for her Advanced Subsidiary (AS) levels in Dance, Art and English literature.

Watson is an avid sports player and her musical interests (as of Spring 2005) include singing, hip hop, blues, and classic rock, including Eminem, Eric Clapton, U2 and Nelly Furtado.

She has said that she feels her celebrity status is partly responsible for her not having a boyfriend, stating:

"Guys are either intimidated by me, or they have defences up...."


Until Tomorrow,


Katy

Hey Everyone! x]

Today was BY FAR THE BEST of the 5 total days I have been here. It was so sunny, the water looked almost AQUA, and there were barely any clouds in the sky.
Minus the 15 minute lightning/thunder storm, the day was perrrfect! :)
Well, got to go prepare for the FOURTH!!! Hope everyone is as excited as I am! I hear Florida passes in flying colors with their fireworks.

The Good Life.

Labels: | at 8:32 PM

Hey All!
Thanks for the wonder-some comments. lol.
This week has been pretty rough on Florida.
But-- today was absolutely awesomee!!!!!
I woke up to not a cloud in the sky! The sky was blue, and there was no fog whatsoever blocking the view of the sun and palm trees. :D
I tanned and swam in the heat and sun almost all day, and enjoyed every second! This was what I had been waiting for! Right now, I am typing away to the view of the prettiest orangey-pink sunset I have ever seen, and everything feels perfect!

Rain, Rain, Go Away. Please?

Labels: | at 8:32 PM

Hey All!
Today was a so-so kind of day I guess.I woke up to beatiful clear skies, hopped out of bed and exclaimed, "I CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE SUN!!!" lol.
Well, not really. I kind of just told my grandparents that we MUST go to the beach.
We got everything all together, grabbed our beach umbrellas, towels, chairs, noodles, snorkels, etc., and ran down to the boardwalk.
To escape the skorching sun, we stopped into this hugeee souveneir [sp?] shop, and bought some t-shirts and HERMIT CRABS.Mine's name is Chloe, and my sis's is Hermoine.
Just as we got to the beach and snorkeled for about 30 mins, big black storm clouds came over head- and I think you know where it went from here.
Rain, Thunder, Lightning. Boom.
*sigh* At least we got some beach time in.
This week is not going in my favor.

Adios.

Under the Sea...

Labels: | at 8:41 PM

Aloha!
Even though the weather was terrible for the 3rd day in a row, I did go swimming!
My grandpa is big on snorkeling, and told us if we were interested, we could try them out. We decided on going to the pool first to learn the basics, which I picked up real fast.
I loved the feeling of breathing underwater! It was spectacular.
Afterwards, we were so thrilled with the snorkels, and the sky was clear enough, {well, as clear as it's been for the past 3 days..} so we took our snorkels and towels to the beach.
We snorkeled for 2 hours straight!!! Time flies when your collecting shells I guess.
The rest of the day went by as usual. I went shopping again, but minus my little sis.
GTG. Icecream awates. ;)
