I don't really know what to say right now, other than I am the luckiest 17 year-old in the world to have the friends that I do, all met through this lil ol' blogging community. Thank you so so very much for making my life fantastic and full of love and sugar and spice and cheese and velvet and aliens and shaved ice and pizza and HAPPINESS. Selena, Isabel, Sea, Madeline, Casey, Rachel, Sabella, and Jessi. I love you guys so SO much.

Here are some Instagram photos that barely touch on what happened last weekend. Y'all are awesomeballz and thanks for makin' my birthday awshum. Can't wait to celebrate Selena's, Sea's, and Brit's birthday soooon.. That shit is gonna be historical.

Bloated like a mothertrucker. Ate about three massive meals full of cheese and four cups of apple juice. Fun times. Incomplete sentences. Hi. Can you believe I got this concho hat for $13 on eBay? Some lady was getting rid of stuff she didn't use and all her things were buy it now.. At times I cannot comprehend how people can just get rid of dreamy clothing/accessories by donating them or selling them at ridiculous prices, such as this hat, or my crochet kimono cardigan thing. I remember getting that long sleeve angelic crochet kimono for like $8 or something a while back in my earlier blogging days. Crazy stuff. In other news, ain't these shorts just great? They're so soft.. Kinda like recently shaved legs. Bizarre analogy. What's new?

Connected Alien Fest

What can I say. We look like aliens, and we like it! Anyways, I went to this thing called the Connected festival here in Los Angeles a few days ago with Dominique and Omar! I met Mark Hunter (cobra snake) for the first time and fan girled a lil.. Not embarrassed to say that at all. Unif and many other booths were also present, selling tons of their clothes and shoes at unbelievable prices. I got a good amount of things that I can't wait to share with you guys.. The first being my favorite purchase! These mermaid pink hellbounds! Gah. So great. Just like that last photo of Beavis and Butthead as illustrated by Dimepiece. Uh huh huh huh.

PS Dominique filmed the Connected festival for her YouTube channel StyleFilmer with tons of footage of us shoppin' and great outfits. Watch it here!

Here are a few sets I put together last night while I couldn't sleep. I think they're all completely different types of styles and incorporate different color schemes, but all come together to fit my style. Or at least I hope! They were all centered around the shoes -- started with them, and then started adding all the other stuff an outfit needs, or according to what society says it needs. It were up to me, we'd walk around bottom-less, with just shoes and some underwear, if even that. If only my utopia could be real.. *sigh*

PS can we just talk about how amazing this store is? I have never seen crowns so majestical, in the entire sense of the word, in ma lyfe. Their crown is featured in my second set.. Thank god for Polyvore because now I've found another shop I can lust after. BOY, BEIN' BROKE SURE IS FUN!
