I love me some Starbucks. I've got a habit and its accompanying "latte factor." I could probably spend more money on makeup if only I could give it up!
Today's rainy and gray, so I thought I'd pull out the only cozy flannel I have. It always makes me think of the Seattle grunge scene of the 90s, even though its got modern colors and is almost a Western-style shirt. I have been wanting to do mermaid-green eyes using the Kat Von D Truth palette for a little while now, because the cream shadow in the palette is rapidly drying out. So, between my mermaid eyes and flannel, I'm drooling for some Starbucks because their logo is, as you may know, a mermaid!

Just a note: my skin has been HORRIBLE lately. I mean, serious deep-red spots all over my cheeks and jawline (hormonal acne). That I can post up these pictures with my skin looking this passable is a testament to the beauty blender and BB cream.

| Shorts, Belt, and Boots - Kohl's (Non-leather Frye boot knockoffs! I hardcore-heart these boots. When I went vegan, I sold my Frye boots for nearly as much as I paid for them, which was lucky as most of my other leather stuff just had to be donated. These non-leather harness-style boots were such an amazing find and only like $30-40, whereas my Fryes had been about $180 and re-sold for $150 on ebay, so it's like I got these Kohl's boots for the difference!), Flannel and Lace-trimmed Camisole - Forever21 (so, as usual, my makeup cost a lot more money than my clothes, ha) |
Sometimes I'm not totally confident in how I dress. I took these pics before going out to brunch and planned to put them up anyway. Then, at the restaurant a woman stopped me and said, "I just love your outfit! I love how you put it together," so I feel pretty good about putting these pics up now! I love to tell people when I like their style, too, even though it takes some nerve to tap a stranger on the shoulder sometimes. I mean, it's an easy opportunity to make someone's day! I highly recommend it :)
