...There's no measuring of it, as nothing else is love...
I love my new home. The birds chirp every morning, and sing a lovely melody. It's the kind of house you like to get lost in, and go on adventures. I awoke this afternoon feeling tired, yet happy. I have been catching up on so much sleep lately, and yet I'm still yawning? ....

I saw an old man walking by the local church behind my house. He was wearing a striped fedora, and gray worn trousers. He looked so kind. I wanted to say hello and invite him for tea, but I'm far too shy and paranoid to ever do such a thing...Doesn't that stuff only happen in the movies, anyways? On another note, I'm on a quest. A quest to find the perfect collection of necklaces. Even before I became interested in fashion, I had always been interested in necklaces. Tomorrow, I'm heading to the local mall and browsing for necklaces. Any suggestions? What is your favorite store to stock up on jewelry (preferably inexpensive)?... thanks again and again!

  4. I would have to say Forever21 is my place to get any jewelry. Some stuff may break eaisly, but it's the only place I've ever bought jewelry. Although, I've started to collect some pieces from the salvation army.

    I seriuosly love your style. Every post you have is so good. You look great in girly things, and in rocker things. I think you would look so good in some studded heels. Think mick jagger meets kate nash. You are such a cutie.

  14. Ooo, I love red lipstick and new homes. Its always so fun the first couple of days in a new house.
    I get a lot of my inexpensive, day-to-day jewellery from H&M. They've got nice things and they're at a good price.

  17. I love buying necklaces at thrift and antique stores or I make my own. I like to have things that you won't see on other people. You can go to a bead store and make your own relatively inexpensively.

    Love your mix of bracelets. Thanks for the mice comment on my blog!!!

  21. You look adoraby awesome. Red lipstick and flipped hair totally suits you...me, not so much. LOL.

    And lots of luck with the DIY. It's more time consuming than hard even with shaky hands. I'm sure you'll be totally fine.

  22. You remind me of how much I miss bangs, green plaids and red lipstick. You've got a great smile. :) Your link is now in!

  26. so adorable, and you are such a gorgeous lady!
    i'm not going to lie, i do that kind of stuff all the time.
    my mother is certain i'm going to get raped and killed one day, but it's all about how you go about it, making sure you're careful. i used to manage this posh little homewares boutique and i'd always invite the eccentric old women over for tea, i used to take homeless people out for lunch ALLLL the time(i'm now living where there are virtually no homeless people), and the amount of elderly friends i've made on public transit are rediculous. try it one day, start in small steps. people are beautiful.

  66. Hmm you rather look like demi lovato, except cuter and better dressed! Hehe, anywho. Best places to get cheapo necklaces? Browse through your moms jewelry box, grannys antiques, and thrift/vintage stores ofcourse! You never know what you'll find and for practically free too!
