Falalalala lalalala'd out :P

So it's the day after Christmas:)
I defiantly scored shopping today lol. Of course I spent most of my money at Forever 21. I got all the stuff I wanted (thank goodness they still had the pants and sweaters I wanted, they're no longer online). Here's what I got:
1 pair of acid wash skinny jeans - 21.90
1 cotton cashmere sweater - 21.90
1 cardigan/sweater for around 24, and
1 tee for 14.90 :D

Thank you Forever21 for having such fashionable clothes at AMAZING prices!!!

And then I bought some converse (25% off) and another tee at Hot Topic.


So now I'm gonna look like this (sort of):

Well I hope everyone had an awesome Christmas!!

Ttyl every1,

Testing blogging from my phone:) now I can blog anywhere

1 IS THE LONELIEST #

Post numero uno:P
Wow, well where to start. There's so much going on in the world it's hard to pick what
to talk about. I guess I'll start off by talking more in depth what this blog is to
me and then how yesterday went.

Well this blog is a lot of things. Mainly it's a blog about my views and what I go through day to day, fashion & design. Fashion has always been something that I've
somewhat been interested in. Most people start off early in their lives, I didn't.
I wasn't till this year that I really started getting into it. I think all the things
that I've been interested in and done have lead up to it. From watching America's Next Top Model, joining the school's graphic arts class to starting to actually sketch.
There's so much to learn and to do, and I'm not the most fashion conscious person.
But I'd like to think I'm getting there.

I've spent my whole teenage life worrying about what others think of me, trying to "fit in." I've always tried to use clothes to express myself, but I never was me. It wasn't till this year that I said to myself, "I'm going to be me, I'm not going to let others bring me down." Sure, there's the occasional person that laughs and they do the worst job at making it seem like their laughing at you. Sure, your not always going to wear something that everyone agrees with. But what matters is how you feel. What matters is you feel in your own skin. It sucks that it took me so long to figure this all out, but i guess that it's a good thing it happened now then when I'm out in the real world alone and on my own.

Anyways, as you read more you'll get the feel of it all. I really want to thank Forever21 cause of they're awesome clothing at great prices. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have half of the clothes that I own and wouldn't be able to be me (it might sound cheesy, but that how it is).

I'm really kind of mad though, there was this pair of awesome jeans they had,
and now it's not online anymore. Hopefully when I got shopping with my X-mas money this weekend they'll be there.

Btw, remember how I said I've just started sketching this year?
Well here's my first
OFFICAL sketch that I've done.
Thank you
desinger's nexus for all the free croquis and flats, I'm not too good
at drawing people.

inspiration came from this pic I took of a light
at the Fox Theatre in downtown Tucson:



Here's what I came up with:

It's not like WOW or AMAZING I know, but it's a start.

Well, that's it for now. Hope you enjoyed reading.
It'll get more interesting (trust me).

Ttyl,
