Hola chicas!
So, how were your holidays? No matter what holiday you celebrate or whatever religion you may be, I hope you had a safe and happy holiday season. (:
So, for some reason I couldn't get internet access yesterday, but here is what I wore yesterday:

(Dress: Papaya, Tights: Vera Wang, Shoes: DSW, Necklace: Vintage)

Ohh gosh, how do I always manage to look like I'm getting my teeth pulled out without any novocaine? Geez. Especially this last photo, I have a hand coming out of my head. But I wanted to show off my hair! I went a bit hippie and did a center part with loose curls and a headband sort of braid on both sides. Anyways, here is what I wore today:



(Top: Papaya, Pants: American Eagle, Knee Socks (rolled down over boots): Kohl's, Boots: Kohl's, Necklace: Vintage)

Sorry the pictures of my outfit from today are somewhat horrendous. I took them at 6:30 this morning and I even still had my glasses on. But I wanted to show you this cool new hole-y (no pun intended) shirt I got. And my new combat boots which I am completely loving. (: And I love the necklace I wore with the dress above. A Christmas present from my grandparents! I know, SHOCKING. But hey, it's pretty cool so that's fine with me. And about that label, Papaya. I just got some new clothes from there, and I had never even known about it. Apparently it's somewhat similar to Forever 21 and the prices are just as great, if not better, so that's always a plus!

If you can see my hair close up, you'll notice how I have a bunch of little flyaway hairs at the crown of my head. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips for how to solve that? Oh, and I plan on getting a haircut verrry soon, so could you please be as lovely as I know you all are and possibly leave me a comment on what you would think would work for me? Gracias lovelies (:

Con Amor,
Lauren xoxo

"I want a snowfall kinda love..."

Merry Christmas chicas! Ahh, I love Christmas so much, and since it is the season of giving, I thought I would do an outfit post today! I'm wrapping some last-minute presents today and thought I would get into the spirit and wear some Christmas colors.

(Top: JCPenney, Skirt: Forever 21, Belt: Forever 21, Sorry no shoes today!)




Don't ask me what I was trying to do here....

 

I hate when my dogs step into the shot! Haha <3

Sooo, I decided to actually let them take some pictures with me (:

And, my new hat! And sorry its turned, it uploaded weird

I wanted to take these pictures in front of my Christmas tree because I thought it was just so beautiful!
Happy Holidays to you and all of your loved ones!

Holaaa!
Oh, how I've missed you! I know, I know, I've terribly neglected my blog. But school this year is... intense, to say the least. And, I get home and I'm tired and, ugh, the cycle never ends. BUT, today I have an outfit post! So, for Christmas and all of the other holidays, since I go to a Methodist private school, we have chapel and all the girls have to wear skirts (which is a bit chauvenistic in my opinion, but whatever). Anyways, here's what I wore:

(Dress: Unknown Department Store, Tights: Urban Outfitters, Necklace: H&M, Shoes: DSW)

 

Nothing too amazing but then again, I couldn't find the dress I really wanted to wear because it somehow went mysteriously MISSING. Bummer. But I guess it'll just make for an interesting scavenger hunt while I'm on break. And this reminds me. I'm sorry I couldn't post because not only am I EXTREMELY busy now (like I said before), but for a while, my computer wouldn't let me upload pictures to anything (including facebook!) But, my wonderful tech geek of a dad managed to fix this for me, so I'll be posting a lot more often now (: By the way, add me as a Facebook friend here!
Happy Holidays!
xoxo Lauren
