Hope

"Hope - a feeling of trust What if you lack trust, how will you have hope?
Trust - firm belief in the strength of someone or something What if you believe in nothing?
Belief - acceptance that something exist I exist.

I exist therefore I trust and have hope in others."

Summer/Back to University Haul (2014)

In about a month, I will be headed back to University and I am lucky enough to go to a University where it is warm/hot year round. Since I am up north for the summer and it gets cold, I decided to do some summer shopping since most summer clothes are on sale.

The first item I purchase (picture below) was this skater skirt  that I got from Kohl's. I have been longing for a skater skirt but I didn't know if they made them long enough. This particular skater skirt is long enough and it comes right above the knee.

My next purchase I made were these black shorts from H&M and again, I haven't bought shorts in awhile because I didn't know if they would cover my bum . But when I tried these on they were the perfect length, not too short but not to long either.

Once again, I purchased another pair of shorts. These shorts are also from H&M just like the ones pictured above.These shorts, however, aren't made of denim and instead are made out of a material you would find in dress pants. The pattern on these shorts gives me the feel that I could wear them to a casual event that would be held outside. These shorts are a little longer than the black shorts but the length is great.

Now on to the tops. I got two different tops and the first top I got is from Forever 21. It is a black dressy tanktop with a circle cut out in the back. I have been looking for a dressy black tanktop for a long time and this one only cost me five dollars!!!

The second top I purchased is from Kohl's and as you can see, it says Paris on it with the Eiffel Tower as the 'A'. I am and most likely will always be obsessed with Paris...France in general it is a great place to visit and I would recommend that if you get the opportunity to visit France then take that opportunity.

As you can see I've bought a lot of black and white clothes. But these next few items are of a different color. These shoes are from Kohl's and they are by the brand Sonoma. Honestly, these shoes are so comfy. My feet feel like they are walking on a cloud. I have recently been obsessed with mint green as well.

And lastly, is.....NAIL POLISH!!! I love nail polish and these three nail polishes are of my favorite brand. From right to left in the picture below is the color Vanessa by Julep. This sparkly color is great for if I want to add a bit of shimmer over an already painted nail. Julep is a brand of nail polish that you can order off line and have your favorite nail polish colors shipped to you monthly. Next is Show Stopper by Pure Ice and this is one of the cheaper brands of nail polish that I usually purchase at Wal-Mart or a drug store. Finally is the color The More The Merrier by Essie, as most of you may know, Essie is a high priced brand of nail polish usually costing around eight dollars. I was able to find this Essie nail polish for $4.99 thanks to the store TJ Maxx. I'm not saying that all TJ Maxx stores carry Essie nail polish but the one I go to gets a shippment of them every once in a while. 

Thank you for reading this blog post!!! 

The Fourth of July

I hope anyone and everyone who celebrates the Fourth of July had a good day/weekend. I didn't spend much time taking pictures of my weekend as to I wanted my main focus to be spent hanging with family and friends. I did however take a picture at one of my favorite places to be.

This house and these people along with many more are one of the best things about the Fourth. I am never in a sour mood when I am with them and the best memories/life lessons always come out when we hang together. Being away for school really helps me to cherish these moments when I come back home.
