Pastel glass,Bunnies, and Dresses

Hiiiii~ I just have some shots from around my room that I managed to tidy up! To randomly update,I've had this headache, but things are alright! I still need to do some more summer reading work...booooo...and I should start sewing but I'm hoping it won't be too atrocious ( I got my machine back, and I've never really done much sewing with it...) Hmmmm, how to be productive in summer? Haha! So yeah. Here are some photos, though!

My dresses~

Nice new sheet set!

Some of my shelf...I really love this Alice book from my friend Sora....I loooveeee anything Alice

The prettiest perriwinkle/lavender mason jar from Abbot Kinney

Some more shelf stuff...I love alpaccas and this hand sewn bunny from a friend!

Filled with hawaiian beach things and sand as well as a crystal and charm

A colored sketch of amazing singer Melanie Martinez in Dollhouse, a creepy-cute song!

Thrifty Findings

Hi, that title was supposed to sort of seem like alliteration....it really doesn't, sorry. I said I'd work on my title skills, and this is my finest work! Ta-da~*sarcastic tone* The "th" sound and the "f" sound are NOT the same, Eila... Anyyyywayyy, from the title, you can guess that this post is about my thrift and clothing resale finds! Now, of course I'm not trying to brag, and am very happy about my finds and grateful indeed! But you see, I always enjoy these sorts of posts and videos on YouTube, so I thought I'd try! I apologize if these posts irritate or offend. Now, shall we see?
Note, these photos are at a medium size to preserve space, as this post is a bit photo-heavy!


Banana Republic sweater- Goodwill for about $7 or so


Shiny buttons and super soft salt and pepper fabric


Random Goodwill sweater, classic cut, creme color...don't remember price..maybe 2 or 3 bucks...sale item


sweaterish military cut jacket...maybe about 7 bucks, but I don't remember exactly


It's supposed to be a deep navy color, but the camera messed it up


Forever 21 from Goodwill- soft coco cotton with cats on it, slouchy fit...$7, maybe


Superman tee for $1, about, Goodwill

Now for the resale shop clothes: these are both from Crossroads....


Old Navy jeans for about $6...sale item


Actually a much nicer, dark wash...they fit skinny, but comfy and soft...plus with real zippers on the ankles!


Juicy Couture jean jacket for $18!  


details....it's a crop fit with tons of buttons


the faded back, with more buttons yet!

I really like stores like these because they reuse, so you're helping the environment, and Goodwill works to help others. Also, the prices are very reasonable~ Hey, you might guess that I really like sweets, and Trader Joe's...well I just wanted to recommend to y'all to try their own brand of peanut butter cups! They're dark chocolate, but sweet, with real peanut butter...they're tiny and cute too!
Only about $4! 


My fingers look weird here...oh and look, my foot in a corner, sorry


Yuuummmm
Serving size says 3 peices...HAHAHAH, that's funny!

Oh ya, if ya care to see,I did a watercolor and ink sketchy thing recently...sorry, so random, but have a look~


It's daisy from the recent Great Gatsby movie!


Look what happened while sketching the first outlines....any art-folk understand this terrible sight? Hehe~ That, friends, is pencil on my finger...it smudges my hand and the paper..tsk tsk.

Hope this post was nice~ Have a nice day!

Moving, Visual, Audial, Inspiration

I've been watching movies/films...whatever you'd like to call them. I guess I'll summarize in a few sentences the most recent one I've seen.

Frances Ha

Watched via Netflix. A simple and comfortable movie with awkward charm. The black and white may or may not have been necessary. About living life as best as you can.
 I enjoy the fact that the story really embraces platonic love. Sometimes you get tired of love songs, love stories, and l'amour in the air.
Frances speaks in a really honest and erratic way that's awkwardly enough, sort of poetic. 

I know that not everyone enjoyed the movie, and I can see how the pacing could be a little iffy, but to me, it really deserved at least four stars. I like Frances. She dances in the streets and doesn't forget to keep believing in change for her 
own sake.




I've also been reading BOOKS,per usual, in addition to movies.
Cupcakes and Perks


I'm currently reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
I saw the movie, which I quite liked, so I went to the library for the book, as I'd seen some great quotes lying around on Pinterest and tumblr! which I admit! I frequent periodically!

Cuuuuuuppcakee....Cookies n cream!
Food is totally inspiring. I said it once, I'll say it again.




Ink sketch(excuse the quality) based on Russian Vogue Dec. 2012....saw on Pinterest 
Victorian collars, pixie cuts, and cross earings....like a queen who came to the present and became a chic hipster.....
