Peanut butter and Jelly.

Maybe it's because without it, you never really have a completed outfit, or maybe its because you don't have to be a size zero to look good in them. But I have a huge obsession with shoes. Seemingly strange because I was such a tomboy and I did say the most exhausted phrase "why do people own more then three pairs of shoes, it's pointless" I know, I know. Shun me from the universal blogger and fashion blogreel.

However, the current thing I'm looking out for? Jelly Sandals.
They're nerdy and old school and remind me of a day where I was the queen of hopscotch. But everyone is allowed atleast one heinous obsession. And this is mine.

When I lived in Thailand, everyone had jelly sandals, and they were so cute and fashionable. When I came home I saw that Old Navy also has some on their website.

Women's Chainlink Thong Jelly Sandals
These come in 7 different colors, including clear.


Women's Ankle-Strap Gladiator Jelly Sandals
Comes in two colors.

Old Navy is one of my secret loves. Even if I don't understand them sometimes.
Exhibit A:

I tried these on. And they were comfortable. But it took me forever to figure them out and why my big toe would go through the little hole. I'd buy them, but only in black. They are a nice change from the normal flip flop.


Also on my wishlist from old navy?....

Today's Inspiration.

Today I'm lazy and am just going to put up pictures that inspired me.
Go figure.


I just love the whole long sleeves, layers, white skirts, and tights thing.
Makes me want snow again.

I love this outfit, I must find some highwaisted pants.



The dress is absolutely adorable and I love the shoes/dress/tights combo in the second picture.

Casual meets sexy. And yeah, I'll admit I love the big hair.


That skirt is amazing.



The jacket with the hat just screams comfort to me. Note to self - must find a hat.


Everything about this outfit makes me smile. I love the petticoat underneath to make it flare out as well. And her hair accessories are amazing.

My Ideal Comfort.

To tell one story I must tell you another.

A while back I was talking to a friend about different fashion and we got into the subject about Comfort. She chose comfort over personal-style and yet I couldn't quite let go of style. I figured comfort would be my sick days in which I don't go out. Don't get me wrong, I have comfortable pieces and outfits, but they are much more in the category of Personal Style then comfort. Anyways, ever since then I've been looking for an outfit of inspiration that both fit my very different style (instead of pj pants and jeans) and also one I could fall asleep in. It would have to been something untucked, not tight, etc.

And I found it, while roaming through Style Bubble's amazing site. The perfect combo. outfit was laying right in front of me.


I don't know why this outfit stands out to me so much.
But I could definitly see myself wearing that outfit with this coat:

Walking around in the snow feeding the horses on my make-believe ranch, going inside and falling asleep next to the fire with my cockerspaniel and a mug of cocoa.

My ideal.

Handmade shopping, oh yeah.

So, in my last post I told you guys I went shopping and bought some very pretty jewerly. All of the jewerly is handmade, which was an amazing find. And I'm very proud of myself for buying a little bit more edgey things seeing how romantic, big curls, flowy, tons of fabric stuff is way more my style. I have to warn you all though. My friends tell me I have the largest collection of ugly earrings in the world. I guess I have weird taste, but I love it and it's all mine.
These were my favorite, only because I didn't understand them, and they are so big.


Okay, so I did buy atleast one 'cutesy' earring. It was an impulse.


These earrings are so cute, tie-dye rustic purple with silver paint. I feel like I should be wearing black and a bandana with them. Oh yeah, I'm bad.


The pink stones with the feathers were so clashed, I had to have them.


Block earrings with pink and black string pattern. One of my favorites as well.


These earrings are like fish scales and they move so elegantly.


Last but not least I got a very cute handmade bead necklace.

Modeled in the picture by my host-mom, it's made of small white pearls, pink glass beads, and pink pearls. I love pink pearls. That's probably where all my money goes. But can you blame me? They are just so amazing looking. Even if they are fake. ...Am I weird that I don't want a diamond wedding ring? I want a real pink pearl one instead? Of course.

I'll try and get some outfit pictures up. But using someone elses camera is kinda giving it a disadvantage. So we will see about tomorrow.

Squeeze Tight.

I'm sorry I haven't been on recently. So is the life of a devoted fashionista. Yeah, right. The truth is that I've been so busy and have gotten so comfortable running around like a headless chicken that I have forgotten about the internet compeltely. But all is well, because even though I haven't solved global warming, I'm writing a new update.

I recently went shopping at a local mall (The Mall Ngamwongwan, Thailand) and went for a couple accessories and some new tights. I got a million gorgeous handmade earrings I'll have to post pictures later when I get my hands on a camera. They are so cute and the fashion gods were with me because they were on sale - 6 for 100Baht. Which is roughly 3 USD. Hooray for currency exchange!

I also got some very cute color tights. I've never seen the color before so I had to buy them. They are like a peachish romantic rose pink. I'll try to get an outfit pic up soon with them. But it got me waning more and more tights. I live in thailand so tights don't work here in it's horrible high temperatures and I only have black tights. But I went on Sockdreams right after and decided that, that must change. I'm actually on the lookout for some tights with a little texture to them as well.

Some tights I really want:




Maybe I'm just attracted to insanely ugly tights but those last ones made me smile.
I would wear holes into those. I love random finds like that.

I have a question for all you frequent tight wearers. Where can you buy tights if you're tall? I'm 5'8" and it makes me sad that I have to stretch until my originally opaque tights are sheer normal ones.

Also I really want to find some tights that are higher opaque then a 40D. I hear there are 110D but I haven't been able to find them.

Pce.
Annah, out.

Hats off to my new addictions.

First off, Hats. (you knew it was coming)

I know, big shocker right? Well if you knew me personally then you would know I don't own not even one hat. Perhaps it's just because I look like an alien in one, or the fact that my head is uber huge and hats (or even headbands) rarely fit. It's a sad tearful story. But when I was randomly browsing fashion blogs I came across The Whimsical Nerd's amazing blog and saw this amazingly wonderful picture.

I know almost every fashion blogger has donned one of these hats in their outfit atleast once. But this outfit made me want one of my own. I absolutely love the way she pulled the outfit together. Usually girls wearing these hats are wearing a trench coat, oversized scarf, and black boots. But this was so cute and original, it was quite refreshing. And on a side note I especially love her berets.

Now I must have one. (and maybe a beret or two)
I wonder if they have hats like these in Bangkok, Thailand...



And secondly, Bows.

You can all thank the lovely lady over as LisaPlace for that. I would cut off my left arm for her wardrobe. And when I was randomly going through her pictures for some inspiration I came across this old picture:


You always see girls wearing little bows in their hair, but when I saw Lisaplace sporting a big ole' bow on the side of her head, I immediately started planned my evil plan to totally DIY it. It reminds me of the movie The Little Princess. And I absolutely love it.



Must get off to bed now.

School-Girl Skirts.

Don't blame me, blame the god-awful rulers of cameras everywhere for breaking my digi-camera, for the third time. So unfortunately this post will be filled with pictures I have found across the internet because my evil demon camera won't turn on, and when it does it won't take a picture.

Anyways, for those who don't know I'm currently an exchange student from the USA living in Bangkok, Thailand. Which means, yes, I have to wear the school uniform. However, school is finished and I have three different outfits sitting in my closet collecting dust. So of course, I took the skirts out and started cutting. I have to admit, the whole 'tokyo' school girl look is quit cute to me. I love it, so sue me. A mini-pleated skirt, oversized cardigan, and bowtie combo? Please and Thank-you! Unfortunately Thailand's uniform is a lot different, aka: very long and highwaisted pleated skirt, oversized button -up, socks, and maryjane shoes. It's not that bad.



It's just...sweaty. Though I did end up cutting the skirt to about 4/5 inches above my knee and the highwaisted part is just a bonus.

Admit it, you only wish you had this in your closet:

Bamboo Stereo

*Sigh* I try getting out of school and they just keep pulling me back in.
