Just Pretend it's Still Yesterday



Shirt: Thrifted 
 Belt: Old 
 Jeans: Thrifted  Shoes: JCPenny

Hello dears! My apologies for the lateness of this post, but I had literally no free time yesterday. Okay, that's not true. I did. But it was all spent taking these pictures and editing them. So let's just be happy I got around to it at all, ok? :)

I rather had fun with this outfit. It makes my hourglass figure like...super pronounced! And then the heels made me super tall. Wellllll...okay. I'm still only 5' 7" with the heels...but that's a lot taller than usual! The only problem with all this is that I got checked out by a total. creeper. in class. And I certainly felt a lot of eyes on me...I can't decide what to think of this. Now I remember why skirts are such fabulous things :)
Well, I shall trot off. I have to get all beautified and take today's pictures soon; got to catch up!!

Did you notice my guitar pick earrings?

Hello people! It's day two! Today I opted to wear jeans: not a terribly common occasion, if you know me very much at all. But how can you argue with fabulous jeans like that? These are the first jeans I've owned in ten years that I've liked the fit of. For starters, they aren't four sizes too big, so it's nice to not worry about them falling down (or off!) And, uh, the little number on the tag is pretty awesome too. Because it's just that. A little number! So, maybe jeans aren't such a bad thing :)
Today in French class, we were all standing up to leave, and mon ami from across the room yelled, "Hannah! You're wearing pants!" And everyone got the funniest looks on their faces! We then had to explain (since for some reason everyone in French is horribly unobservant) that I usually wear skirts, and rarely wear jeans. Tomorrow may shock and amaze people, for I think I am going to wear jeans again. Because it is quite uncomfortable to sit on choir risers in a skirt. 
Aren't my pictures fabulous? Olivia brought her magical camera today and we had a little photo-shoot. 
Now it's time for the first daily shout-out! Today's shout-out goes to my mother :) she has gone all out in looking for ways to make me feel better, and right now is reading a book about green smoothies. The lady who wrote the book is terrifyingly hippie-ish, and has a whole chapter about "Vibrational Nutrition" and even includes the Mega-Hertz of various foods! Yet my darling mother can overlook the scariness and press on anyway :) Also, she cleaned my gross bathroom for me today so my arm wouldn't act up. Isn't she a dear?
Well, Sarah is dying to read my post, so I must finish up. Have a fantabulous evening!!!!!

Snow on My Parade


Cardigan: The Limited 
 Shirt: Thrifted 
 Skirt: Thrifted 
Tights: Fred Meyer 
 Shoes: Clarks 
 Belt: Neighbor
It's Day 1!!! The nearly-easiest day of 30-for-30, I would imagine. It can't possibly be the easiest, because I spent quite a while yesterday deciding what outfit would be most appropriate to wear for the first day. It's a very important occasion, you see, with heavy guidelines on it (you can tell I'm an over-analytical teenage girl, can't you?) See, I couldn't possibly pick a boring, every-day kind of outfit, but if I started going all-out-unique the very first day, it would just be a bit odd. So, after much deliberation, this was deemed an appropriate first-day outfit.
I'm sporting all things thrifted, hand-me-down, and upscale K-mart, excepting my shoes and cardigan; but they were both from the outlet mall :)
With regards to the first picture: I'm getting mixed signals about it. On the one hand, my dear friend Olivia says I look positively gorgeous in it. I had myself been thinking it a rather flattering picture. However, my parents, when showed it, seemed to think differently. Their reaction was along the lines of, "yep!" Simple acknowledgement of the picture's existence was not exactly what I was expecting. So...what do YOU think?
Last night, it snowed, and "they" cancelled school. I do not like snow, and I think it should go away. Now. My friend Jonathan and I have long had plans to hunt down and murder the weather. Not the weatherman, mind you. The weather itself. With Weather gone, there will be no more snow, and I won't get stuck at the top of my hill!
Well, it's afternoon already (gasp!) and I haven't gotten any work done today. TTFN!

That's a Huge Book!

Hello :) Today is a wonderfully lazy Sunday afternoon. So I decided to take pictures!

Why I am reading an Encyclopedia of Dictionaries is absolutely beyond me. Perhaps this is why I am looking off into the distance in the second picture?
Today before church my family and I went to the thrift store and took advantage of their Sunday deals (all clothes are just $1 each!) Usually when I go shopping anywhere, thrift store or otherwise, and try on jeans, I try on at least 10 pair, and none of them fit me the way I want. That's right. NONE. But today, I tried on three pairs, and guess how many I bought? You guessed it. THREE. Well, maybe you didn't guess. But I will just imagine you did :) Three pairs of jeans that are not falling off of me are now mine, for just $3. Muahahahahaha!
Chocolate cravings have just hit. Off to the kitchen!
