Nostalgia

I've been seriously lacking motivation lately. All I want to do is sit wrapped up in a blanket and watch Supernatural. All day and night.

 

 Isn't the back of this jacket the coolest? It belonged to my dad when he was in high school in the 70's. I had to beg pretty hard to get it, but I think he thinks it's pretty cool to see his daughter wearing his old jacket. He won't tell me any stories about back in the day though, but I see the nostalgic look in his eye whenever he sees it.

...And Have Lost My Mind In The Process

I don't have much to say today. I've been in a bit of a slump because I lost my job on Monday. For the past year and a half I've been working at the last video rental store around my town, and the owner finally decided to close after business had been continuously going down. The worst part about it though, is that even though my boss has known since February, they decided to tell us the day before that the store was closing and that I'm out of a job.

I've loved this Van Gogh quote for a while, and I thought this would be an appropriate post to use it in. I hope that I'm lucky enough to find something that I love to do so much that I can invest my heart, soul, and mind into.

Keep Your Eyes On The Stars

This skirt is, I think, one of the most beautiful things I own. The galaxy print is perfect, and I love the colors. It is actually one of those high low skirts, but I decided to tuck the longer part into the front so it wouldn't get in the way or get caught on anything while I was running around doing peoples hair and makeup for a play!

 

If you're interested in seeing the full effect of this skirt in all of its high low glory, you can see it in my post Always Remember To Slow Down In Life by clicking here.

Act The Part

This past week has been so busy! My old school was putting on the musical Guys And Dolls, so I volunteered with my friends to do the hair and makeup, and we had so much fun! When I was in high school I helped with the production every year, so I really wanted to help out again, even though I don't go to that school anymore. It was such a great week, and I definitely miss high school.

 

Anyway, this is something that I wore to Halifax over the Easter weekend which was a while ago now. And this velvet blazer is a new favourite! I found it at a second hand store and instantly fell in love. I've been looking for a blazer for a while, but most that I find are cropped (I wanted one that was a bit longer like this). And it being made of velvet was a big selling factor, too!

I love this site because of the wonderful selection of clothes and jewelry, and the even more wonderful prices! So instead of only being able to get one or two pieces, you can get more of what you're loving! I hope you all take the time to check out this online store, it's really worth it!
