22/365
After watching Stacey and Clinton in TLC’s “What Not to Wear” all day Saturday, I was inspired and I decided to start spending some of that graduation gift card mula. I made sure to make a list of all the things that my closet might benefit from obtaining, then went off to Old Town to get my shop on. It helps me not to overspend when I have a clear idea of what I am looking for, then I don’t so much deal with the “BUT ITS SO CUTE!!!” dilemma.
One of the items I had in mind when I arrived at H&M was a thin brown belt. Something that I could use to accessorize an outfit without overdoing it on a thick high-waisted belt. You might have seen outfit 6/365 where I wore a skinny brown belt, exactly like the one I am describing, and think “Lizzy you’re dumb you have that already” but just like anything good that I wear it didn’t belong to me. My sister.
So while I was shopping this Saturday I used some of that glorious gift card mula to buy the belt that I wore today. I love it. It is comfy and adorable and I recommend everyone have one as an option to spice up any outfit. But what do I know? Not much.
I also got a cute texturized white undershirt (not the one I am wearing) and some new makeup products. It was a great day to say the least.
Today’s outfit once again lends itself to the argument that most of the cute stuff that I wear does not belong to me, except my belt! The printed sweater belongs to the lovely Molly D. who has hopefully shown me some grace and forgiveness while reading my blog in Costa Rica on a missions trip watching me wear her clothes. Oops. Love ya Molla.
New makeup products. I tried to get a close up picture of my eyes and my new eyeliner but it didn’t work out. The new eyeliner is a midnight blue or something like that, which I bought after Carmindy on “What Not to Wear” (of course) told one of the make-over guests to wear a dark blue to accentuate her dark brown eyes. I thought to myself, “I have dark brown eyes that could use some accentuating!” and proceeded to take Carmindy’s advice and purchase some of that eyeliner for myself. Love it.
P.S. I love my watch. I have never been a watch person, but my sister and bro in law bought me a watch for graduation and I love it. I actually use it not only as an accessory but to tell time. Imagine that! If you haven’t seen it, here it is.
