Oops, I Bought Things...

Hi guys, how are you all? I realized I forgot to post my Life Update, so you guys are getting two posts today!

I realized one thing I haven't done is a clothing haul. So the other day I was at the mall and bought a few things (naughty me, I seriously need to stop spending so much money). Here they are!!

Velvet Dress from Forever 21
The first thing I got was this (couldn't find the exact dress online, but this one is close!) velvet dress from Forever 21 in this beautiful burgundy color (my favorite color, especially for fall and winter!). This dress isn't too short, but it's so soft, and I think it would look great with some over-the-knee black socks or some black tights.

Sweater from Forever 21
Next, I got this rust-colored knit sweater, also from Forever 21. This sweater is crazy soft, and it's so flattering. I thought the rust color might be hard to match things with, but it's actually very easy, and I think anyone could rock this color.

THESE ARE MY FAVE- Sperry Boots
Okay, these boots are amazing. They were purchased at Nordstrom's, but are the Sperry Top-Sider brand. They're are the most comfortable boots I've ever owned, and they keep my feet so warm. They actually are lined with polar fleece, I believe, and are waterproof as well, perfect for snow and slush! I love these so much because they are practical while still being so so so cute. 

Nail polish from H&M

Lastly, I got this beautiful nail polish in the color 'envy'. Unfortunately, I couldn't find this one online, but the color is beautiful and perfect for this time of the year! It's very evergreen-y and subtle, but you don't need to put more than 2 coats on, which I love!

Well guys, that's all I bought for clothes and such! I did get some LUSH things though...;). Let me know what you'd like to see for my next post! Love you all.

Little Life Update.

Hi everyone, how are you all? I've missed you.

I don't have a ton of time, but I wanted to sit down for a little moment to update you all on my life at the moment (don't worry, it's good stuff!)

Back in September, I auditioned for our school's pit orchestra for our fall musical "Footloose," and I got in on clarinet and tenor saxophone. It's been the best time, but boy is it time-consuming! Several rehearsals a week, and this past week we had a couple 7 hour rehearsals to get ready for the show. Sadly, we only have 3 performances left :(, but it's been the time of my life, and although I'm sad to be almost done with it, I'm excited that I'll have more time to spend with you guys blogging and chatting.

When I'm not practicing for the musical, I'm trying to get all my homework done. AP classes are tough, I'll tell you that. I don't regret taking them, but they've been a little more difficult lately, especially since I don't have much time to study.

As you can see, things have been hella busy, but I'm so happy at the moment. I don't think I've been this happy for this long in a very long time, and I love that. I'm getting to cut down on meetings with the therapist more, and my doctors visits are a lot less often as well, which is awesome.

Anyway, we're supposed to get a gigantic snow storm early tomorrow morning and into Tuesday (eeeeeee!!), so it would be really nice to have some extra time to blog for you all! I've got some new LUSH products, and lots of other ideas for posts. Anyway, I love you all, have a wonderful rest of your night ♡.
