Gone With The Math Wind

As the title claims, I am here for now. The next few weeks until the very end of the school year are going to be a hurricane, so please don't be disappointed if there's a week with only one post coming up or even less, and especially not the more decorated put together posts, because I have so many tests that my mind's burning up.
This week I have chem test and two math tests that I really am trying not to be too stressed about, because frankly that's what screws me up and makes me fail miserably (not that I actually fail, but I've been getting bad scores because of stressing myself out), so, you girls, wish me luck, please!
How have you been? To my sad impression you don't really like leaving comments which I would love to get. Don't worry about being good at English or whatever, because that, honestly, doesn't matter to me at all.
I am taking pictures of outfit of the days all the time for you, though not really able to take the time and do a real post to my awful dismay.
Other than that things haven't really changed, gone wrong, or gone fabulous. I don't have any boy drama, thank whatever higher force you believe in if you do. School is a little stressful, but I mean it could be because I just had a really long spring break, and I'm just not used to working my bum off. Yet. My family is great actually. Dad decided to stop smoking, which in my opinion is a great thing that will be healthy for us as a family and individually, and especially good for him. I am very proud of that life choice he has taken. My friends and I all made up (the ones I had fights with), and I really am just happy with my place in the food chain right now. I feel almost like a T-Rex, a super omnivore. I am honestly trying my best at not letting things get to me.
I am optimistic, very, which is a good thing for me to be at this point. I mean usually towards the end of the school year I am powerless, but this year I'm charging up to go at it full force.
Now here are three outfits from these past not so few days:
The first outfit was worn on an extremely humid day, and therefore I didn't wear any jewelery, but I did go to see 21 Jump Street, which was HILARIOUS, so try to go out and see it. An added plus is that Channing Tatum is extremely attractive, and I'm shallow like that. Hence the sweater in case I get cold in the theater, and I always get cold in the theater. The cardigan is from Zara and it has been featured more time than the dear beloved queen waves her hand in one day. The T-shirt is just an old T-shirt of my sister's that has a yellow cab on it and, I really like it. The shoes I was wearing are my Aldo black sandals that cannot be replaced in my heart, as far as my eyes have seen up until now.

This next outfit was worn on a day home when I didn't feel like putting too much effort into. I wore my mom's mint tank top with lace trimming at the neck that I steal all the time. Again I didn't wear any jewelery just because I was really lazy and was just solving math tests for nobody to hear or see. The shorts are from last summer's Urban Outfitter's collection. They're dotted all over, high waisted and have scalloped edges. The little short-sleeved cardigan is from Topshop, and I don't love it, but still I needed color. I didn't really wear shoes, because my feet love their freedom when possible.


The last outfit for today is an outfit I wore to school, and it has an autumn-ish vibe to it, but really it felt a lot like a fall day that day. I centered it around the necklace that I bought in a local boutique (for more information about the boutiques I shop at send me a comment so that I can answer you later more privately). I wore a plain gray T-shirt from Old Navy, which I always buy my basic T's from, with some high waisted denim shorts, again from a local store. Under the shorts I wore black tights and I paired them up with my shoes from Urban Outfitters that I saw Ivy from 90210 wearing in the last episode I think that came out, or the one before, and got really stupidly fan girly excited about it. That girl is a style icon for me, although I would never be able to imitate her. Other than that I wore all my regular rings and my lucky bracelet my dad bought me.
Anyways I really am desperate for your replies and thoughts and so on so please comment. Remember that "wherever I go, each moment away, I'm missing you more than I can say" as the lovely Karima Francis says in her addictive song "Wherever I Go". Have an awesome week! XOXO Roni J.

Shoe'dore

Hey hey!
I decided today to do a fashion related post about my favorite kind of shoes. This is something fairly recent, but I think it's going to last forever. My shoe love is loafers, moccasins, which ever you prefer.
 Since I am very tall, at least in comparison to most people my age here (I'm 5'7 or 1.75 meters), then I don't feel to comfortable wearing anything tall. I wish I could just wear JC's Litas all day everyday, but I can't, because I would feel uncomfortable for one, and also might hurt my back and knees that are more sensitive usually for taller people. So maybe for special occasions, but nothing more.
Since I usually don't feel like fixing my pedicure and I don't have time for that (although I try my best, but I hate when chipped nail polish shows), I don't really wearing flip flops and sandals, plus they're not warm enough for the most of the year.
I adore sneakers, they are comfortable and there's a huge variety of them, but some times, most of the times, I feel like going for something that's a little bit more dressy than just simple sneakers.
I also adore ballet flats and boots, but boots don't suit the warm weather here for the most part and ballet flats sometimes are too dressy and girly, when usually I am more drawn to things that have a masculine edge to them.
Therefore the loafers are the perfect shoe for me. They are flat, they're closed toed, a little more dressy than sneakers and a little less dressy than ballet flats, and they basically suit every stinking weather (obviously except for snow and blizzard, which we rarely ever get if at all).




Here's my collection of loafers (they're both mine and my sister's so don't go all OMG on me, we share, plus I wear them to death):
 This first pair is from Massimo Dutti. I know this is a fairly expensive brand, but my sister bought them on sale a month ago or so. They are super comfortable and wearable and versatile as well as so freaking well made. 

The next pair is a pair from Aldo that I wore today. They are super duper comfortable as well as fairly attainable since they're not as expensive. I love these they're probably the most worn pair out of all of these.



The next pair is from Clark's. Even though they don't appear this way on camera they are a fairly bright blue. They really do add extra comfort and a nice pop of color to any of my outfits.










These.... Oh these. These are what I call a shoegasm. These are my lovely Minnetonka pair that I bought at Urban Outfitters in the fall. I love the embroidery on these, and their sole is so freaking nice and thick. They are comfortable as a faux fur beanbag.







The very last pair, for now, is a pair that I bought at a local store and have already kinda destroyed the other shoe since it wasn't too qualitative, but I will fix the other shoe , and nonetheless I still adore them and they're the only black pair I own so they fit with a lot of things.

Now here's the most lovely man alive, my favorite singer, the greatest lyrics master: Paolo Nutini. The lyrics are just so true, and even though this song is I think one of his least deep ones, he has amazing songs with amazing lyrics that WILL make you cry.
