Goodbye, for a week

In less than 5 hours I leave for Clarksdale, Mississippi for a weeklong Habitat for Humanity trip. I won’t have internet access and my outfits will all be work clothes so I won’t have new posts until I get back. I hope everyone has as much fun as I plan to!

Love,
Anne Michelle

Leather Blues

It’s no secret I love eBay; that site is absolutely amazing. However, I do hate when I forget to bid on items I set my heart on. I wanted this leather jacket, I had already planned to wear it but unfortunately I forgot to bid on it in time and some lucky person got it for $12.50.





Oh well, that’s life. Today I went shopping and all I bought was a pair of $0.50 shorts, I know that sounds unbelievable but they were really on sale for $0.50 at TJ Maxx. So most people probably hate TJ Maxx but I’m in love. Sure there are frumpy and nasty and unfashionable clothes, ugly purses, and hideous shoes but I love searching for cheap items. If I spend a ton of money on one piece the only thing I feel is guilty.

During my shopping trip today I also found one pair of the shoes below left at my local Forever 21 and I really like them. I don’t know whether to buy them or not though despite them being on sale for only $13.99.






Anyways I’m exhausted so I’m going to go dream of beaches.





Love,
Anne Michelle

School Blues...

So I’m addicted to caffeine. I have had at least 6 lattes in the past 2 days and last night I continued my trend of getting less than 4 hours of sleep per night. I’m a second semester senior life is supposed to be easy; unfortunately my teachers obviously don’t get that. My outfits have been pretty blah and I’ve been too tired to care however I have fallen in love with a few pieces on eBay.

While it’s currently too expensive for me I love the sweater below. The shape is amazing and it looks incredibly comfortable.





This peacock belt caught my eye and I don’t think anyone could ever have too many accessories.





This last item is the only one still in my bidding range; it’s currently at $12.50 with 1 day to go. I’m not a big fan on the sequins but I love the shape of the skirt!





Well I'm off to write my numerous paper and tons of calculus.

Love,
Anne Michelle

If Only I were Randy 'The Ram' Robinson...

My names Anne Michelle but a lot of people call me Annie. I'm 17 and I am finally going off to college in the fall (to where I'm not sure yet...). I live amidst corn and soybean fields in Illinois and I can’t wait to get out. I’m lucky enough to have traveled some of the world but I have so much more I want to see.

I’ve never had a blog before, so if anyone actually reads this bear with me. I recently fell in love with fashion, so recently in fact my closet still contains a good amount of Abercrombie and Hollister. I trying to update my closet on a super budget but unfortunately I live in a town with a single decent vintage store that can be quite expensive. I’m constantly searching eBay and online sites for sales and will post things that I find.

Last night I wore the most comfortable outfit ever to a valentine making party with friends and then to the movie The Wrestler with my boyfriend. He bought me this giant shirt and I’m quite in love with it.









Love,
Anne Michelle
