Mailbox Mavensssss

Ohhhhh heyyyyy lovelies! :) Soooo... it's another Mailbox Mavens post for you! The Mavens have been doing such a fabulous job styling up all of the awesome pieces that are making their way around the country! Soooo excited to see more!! :) Sooooo.... here's how I restyled a piece from Tabitha of the Fashion Therapist! Amy from the Bargain Hunter Extraordinaire got it first, and then she passed it along to me! Here are the ways those 2 lovely ladies styled this super cool tunic! It's got such awesome rosette-like detailing around the neck!!

Tabitha's take!


Tabitha's challenge to Amy was to style it as an actual tunic.... I think she did a great job! Super cute on both looks!!

Amy's take!


Amy's challenge to me was to try and style it as something completely different then what it's meant for.... i.e. a scarf, etc. Soooooooo here's my take on it! It was pretty tough to do, but I think overall it worked out! In the pics, I don't have it kinda clipped up behind me yet so it's a little gappy.... But what do you think? Does it work as a scarf/neck embellishment lol?

P.p.s Sorry for the super TIRED/craptastic look that I have on my face.... Allergies are kickin' my butt!!!

It's April Fools..... I feel like a fool.......

Oh hey........ April Fool's.......... today I don't quite feel in the mood to pull some awesome/extreme prank...... but I do feel like a fool. Does that count??






Outfit Deets:
Dress - Marshalls $19.99
Shoes - Charlotte Russe $10ish
Earrings - Kohl's gift

Sooooooo...... I feel very discombobulated currently....... I feel like my life is going in many different directions and I need to figure out what in the world to do with it. As some of you may know *or not know*, in 2 weeks I'm officially done at my 9-5 sports marketing job. I've decided that I want to be an Elementary school teacher! Awesome right? Well yeah, kinda..... So I picked up a substitute temp position while I attempt to work on getting my certification. Soooo... I'll be working the subbing temp and working at Mac Grill still. So, I can probably pay all the bills yada yada yada...... However, last night.... my roommate told me that she's moving out on June 1st when the lease is up. Awesome......... or not. Sooooo... I either need to find a frickin' ridic cheap apartment for myself, or a roommate, or move... home... cough cough... but that's my ultimate last option and only if I just have zero dollars in my bank account. Don't get me wrong, I LOVEEEE my parents... but I can't go from living on my own for 5 years, to moving back in with them. Total change. Something I doubt I'm prepared for. I'm also waiting to hear if I even got accepted to go back to school for the teaching cert. I may not know for another 2 weeks........ So now, I have to trust that He knows everything... and has some sort of plan for my crazy life. OK... I'm done. Thanks for "listening"......

I'm sorry for the rant.... sometimes you just need to vent it all out..... whether people read it or not......
