HAPPY NEW MONTH to you all! 

I hope this month brings good vibes only and I pray you were productive in September. Its usually around this time of the year I am reminded of the goals I set at the beginning of the year and try to see if I achieved any because truth be told, the year is as good as over. 

I used to look sideways at people who thrifted a few years ago (yes, I was one of those people who would complain the entire time my friends would drag me thrift shopping and with time, the invites stopped coming in). Then sometime last year, as I was passing a thrift store on my from an appointment, a Michael Kors Bag caught my eye. Within minutes, I found myself closely examining the bag, checking my bank account and contemplating if it was a good find or not. If you shop a lot, you know that you don't buy something immediately but instead you wonder around the store as you "makeup your mind". Needless to say, something else caught my eye and an hour later I left with a few goodies, excluding the bag and safe to say I haven't looked back since.

The off-shoulder trend is so in right now, thanks to Riri and I couldn't resist styling this over-sized thrifty find accordingly. If you've been following this blog for a while you will know I love my over-sized shirts, tops, anything and everything really because they are comfy! I like boyfriend jeans, which in this case aren't as baggy as I would have liked them to be because of weight gain but they work great with the look plus the Calvin Klein belt. Of course I had to complete the look with a cute hairstyle, just to add some sass to life and a vintage touch! 

How would you style an oversized shirt?

Hi everyone it's so awesome to be back and be blogging again. This semester was one of the longest semesters I've ever had mainly because it's summertime and a few changes have taken place in my life. One of the main ones as you can see, is that I wear glasses now. Haah! And has one was a long time coming. For as long as I can remember I've had to squint my eyes to see read (as if that wasn't a sign enough) but somehow I always took it for granted, never as something important enough for me to look into. I mean even when I was in high school  I was a nerd enough without the addition of pair of glasses as I spent most of my days being a bookworm, to the extent of reading in the under my blankets with a torch after lights out as a border or those never ending electricity cuts that prevailed during my time. Lately, reading lecture slides in my lectures was fast becoming a nightmare. I couldn't bear the thought actually attending a full lecture and sitting through it without having a migraine or better yet seeing anything. One day, I sat right in front of my calculus class and couldn't make out anything from the screen on top and right there I decided it was time that I accepted what I really am and get it checked out. To say I haven't been enjoying being  part of the four eyed gang would be an understatement and knowing me I had to pick a pair that's chic as I am. I don't look too bad right?

I've been enjoying my thrifting adventures a lot more than I would. Its so much fun finding little treasures for such a bargain (a blogger's dream) and nothing screams vintage than bold colors and bold prints. I'm not too sure if this look would fall under a vintage look but the top gives those that retro vibe to the look. I wore this particular look for a day at school and with the size of my bag, I'm sure you can tell I had a lot to carry. I use and abuse this bag on the days I need to carry a lot so yey to H & M for being the plug for a trendy student.
