Another Day Is Here And I Am Still Alive



Photobucket

Cardigan: borrowed from my mom, Dress: Ebay $13, Tights: $3, Boots: Aldo $52, Rings: gift and thrift shop $3, Necklace: Thrift $5

Hello everybody!!!! I have gotten in the awful habit of posting every six or seven days, i need to get back to my regular schedule and do two or three posts a week. I wore this outfit last night to a concert/play with my sister, mom and aunt. My mom had thought it was a play which is why we decided to go (i love plays) but it turned out just to be a band singing. Well the hilarious thing was the average age of the audience was about seventy and my sister and i were the youngest people there by far. At one point we made plans to leave and go do something else in case it was boring but actually it was the funniest thing i have ever seen. The lead singer was so tiny and his dancing was just hilarious he bounced all over the stage doing moves i have never seen before, i was in stitches the entire time!! Oh and i got serenaded when he came off the stage which made me laugh even more so overall i had a good time which was a bit unexpected. I have worn this dress on here before (link), originally i wanted to wear a blazer instead of the cardigan but i had popped off one of the buttons so when i went to sew it on yesterday i had the thread and button but i left to drop my mom off at work and when i returned the button was absolutely nowhere to be found. I searched everywhere and could still not find the dumb little thing so i had to scrap that plan and just grabbed my moms sweater. I really hope i find it soon since the blazer is my absolute favourite and doesn't look right with a missing button (they are these lovely gold ones with a crest). I have been having a horrible time getting a pair of boots, absolutely nothing has fit my big feet, i had to return about four pairs already. So i was ridiculously happy when these ones arrived and they fit perfectly!!! I really wanted a pair of engineer boots, biker boots whatever they are called after i saw the ones Effy wore throughout the third season of Skins. These actually have some studs on the front although they are snow covered in these photos and are super comfortable which i desperately needed since heels kill my feet after a few hours. I wasn't feeling very well the last few days so need to catch up on all of the blog updates i missed and reply to comments (i am terribly behind on that, so sorry!!!!) I hope everyone had a lovely weekend :).

I love this outfit - I love that dress and I'm so jealous of your boots!! I love Effy. :]] I have really really small feet, and I recently tried on a pair of children's motorcycle/biker boots that looked just like Effy's. They were a size three and a bit too small, but they had a size four in brown, so I tried them on - perfect fit. (I know, I wear children's shoes, it's embarrassing!) But I really wanted them in black, so I'm on the prowl still, ha ha.

That sounds like a fun evening! I love getting into funny situations :) Love the look, I hope that you get your button sewed back on soon. And I totally know what you mean with the boots. I have long double narrow feet... boots never fit! But Aldo makes awesome shoes!
