Tell me more, tell me more

1.) my camera is getting suckier and suckier. look at those horrific lines. madness!
2.) public ridicule. OH MY GOODNESS IT'S THE DEATH OF MY REPUTATION. haaa just kidding. i almost died laughing when i uploaded THIS^ picture from my camera. the things i do for you guys. i still laugh everytime i scroll back up. ♥

Newlook gray leather jacket: Ross
Polka dot strapless romper: Wetseal
Sheer tights
Black lace up wedges: F21
Red Purse: mom

i remember when discount stores were looked down upon. back in the day when the Juicy Couture and Abercrombie and Hollister were riding at the apex of popularity. times have indeed changed.
what's wrong with discount stores? and what was EVER wrong with them? i've gone to them since, like, forever.
i found this Newlook leather jacket (i was UTTERLY confused when i got this......isn't newlook an UK only brand?,.. i'm in the US... confusing!) at a local discount store for $17, when it retails for about £ 34.99 , or 
$ 55 USD. SCORE. 


my rant on that is now done.
for the rest of this post, i'll inform you of how much i love this lingering cold weather and how much i hate my school work load.

I totally adore your romper! I just got a vintage dress similar to that and cannot wait to bust out the polka dots soon! Maybe tomorrow :) I love discount stores, too, and have always shopped at them. I seriously never pay retail for things, except at like Forever 21 or unless I am super desperate for something! hehe. Oh, and thank goodness for thrift stores.

You are so lovely, sweety :)
