Black Milk = Awesome

My new fav site for when I have lots of clothing money: BLACK MILK!!


They sell leggings, skirts, tops, bathing suits, dresses, body suits, suspenders and shoes. Most of the stuff they have is awesome images printed on fabric, and they have a few geeky categories, including Star Wars, and Middle Earth. (Geeks for the win!) I fell in love with a pair of leggings that just had green pears all over them. Take a look, they are incredibly amazing!


My mom found this awesome dress that she bought my sister for her birthday. It's a white background with a map of Middle Earth across it. AWESOME. You can find it here, because it's totally worth looking at, even if you can't afford it.

The prices are rather large but they have awesome stuff. I love the Star Wars stuff so much! I am definitely planning on shopping this site in the future. 


***The prices are in Australian dollars, which is close to US dollars for those of you who use US dollars, but make sure you check how much more what you buy will cost because the cost will be slightly higher in US dollars.***



This link is to the general site, and they have lots of cool stuff to look through! Go check it out!

Spring is coming!

I got the Spring 2013 style guide from JCPenney today and I just realized how excited I am for spring! There is so much cute stuff in store for this spring! I didn't find one thing I didn't like. I mean, I couldn't pull off some of the looks, but none of them were unattractive.

I've been looking at their site for an hour now, and it's got great stuff on there! The thing I love about JCPenney is they have great prices for quality stuff. It's not all high-end designer, but they have a lot of great looking stuff, and they carry a variety of styles so you don't feel like you can't find anything in your style when you walk in. 

I need to go there soon... Hmm... Maybe a bit of self reward shopping after this play is over? I think so! :)

By the way that's why I haven't been posting lately. I'm in a production of A Midsummer's Night Dream by William Shakespeare. I play Helena, one of the lovers. (Which is a larger part if you don't know the play very well) So I have been memorizing lines like crazy and I got a part time position at the dream job I have wanted since I was eight. (Yay yay yay!) Needless to say I have been BUSY. The good news is that once the play is over (which it will be in a bit over a week) I can focus more on school and my new job and THIS BLOG. Plus, with a job, that means more money that I can spend on stuff to review and repurpose for this blog! Woohoo!

Macy's Shopping Haul!


Hey, I promised my latest Clothing Haul, so here it is! (It's not exactly a haul, as it's only two things, but I love them so I don't care what it's called.) I went to Macy's yesterday and picked up these two things: 

Here's the jacket I got. It's from B Hip by Me Jane. It's got a studded collar and an asymmetrical zipper, motorcycle style. It's a lighter jacket, more of a late spring/summer nights/early fall type thing, but I can wear it around inside, like at school for instance.


Ok, here's my studded wedge sneakers from Material Girl. I've wanted a pair of these for a while, and I finally have one! Here's the breakdown: I really like the zipper, because I don't need to untie and tie them every time I want to put them on/take them off. They're a dark blue inside, which you can see a little of in this picture at the edge, near the zipper and they're comfy, which is hard to achieve in a wedge shoe. I love them, and there's not much more to say beyond that. 


So that's what I got at Macy's. (I also got socks but I didn't think that those would be very exciting, so I didn't put them in.) Do you guys think I did well? Comment and tell me!

Shopping Haul

Hey guys! 
I finally took pictures of the clothes haul I got during the holidays. The following is each piece and what I have to say about it. I got all of this from JCPenny.

First up: my new red jeans! (These are the Sparkle Skinny Jeans from Truce in red. They also come in blue and purple. Link is right here.) I love these jeans. The denim is really soft, and I love how the sides are dyed black. They are bedazzled, and I usually don't like that, but in this case, I don't think it's too much.


Here's a close up of the rhinestones, and the way the black dye fades out into the red:


Ok, next up is this purple over-shirt. (This one is from Arizona Jean Co. I couldn't find it on the website though, so I can't give you a link.) It's not very thick, and it's not very warm, and it's definitely for warmer weather than we have right now. I tied it up, but it is full length, and long sleeved, but the sleeves can be rolled up.



Ok, here is the Cherry Rose Railroad Corset Cami, also from Arizona Jean Co. This can be found here. This tank surprised me when I saw it from afar, because it's actually made of soft denim. I wasn't expecting that, but it's quite comfortable, and shapes well to my body form because the back is stretchable. (It's all scrunchy because it is sewn with elastic thread. You know what I mean, right?)


Next are my teal pants! These are from B.Wear, and again, I can't find them on the site, but these are close to the same thing. They're super awesome and they make me smile when I wear them. They feel like more of dress pants, because they're 75% rayon, but they have Nylon and Spandex for the other 25%, so they're sturdy but stretchy enough to be comfortable. I personally think that these are great for a casual friday kinda thing, because they do look professional enough to wear to an office, but the color is quite bold. (PS; they do need ironing if you crinkle them up, so fold them nicely and take care of them.)



So that's all I got over the holidays! I will post my next haul very soon, as I did go shopping today, and I got a few awesome things.

Smile on fashionistas! Feel free to comment, I love getting your feedback!
