Happy Saturday! Thanks for stopping by! This morning when I woke up, I realized it's ALREADY August 10; which means summer is almost over. With summer coming to an end, most people make it a point to squeeze in as many beach days as they can. If you're thinking about hitting the beach soon, here are some essentials that you should bring along with you!
Pick up a new book! Reading is one of the best forms of relaxation; combine that with the beach and it's a zen heaven! You could also bring school textbooks! Don't let your summer classes keep you inside; study on the beach!
Keep your lips hydrated with some lip balm! One of the most important beach essentials. The sun can dry out your lips causing them to be serverely chapped. So, be smart and keep some lip balm on hand!
It's finally the middle of the work week! Only two more days until the weekend and I know everyone's excited for that!! One of my favorite things to do during work whenever I get a free second is look at quotes on Pinterest, We Heart It and Tumblr! Over the past week I've accumulated some quotes that I really like and would like to share with you!
Have you seen the video for "Still Into You" by Paramore? If not you're not only missing out on a great song but an extremely daring outfit as well! The lead singer, Hayley Williams, pulls off one of the best outfits I've ever seen in a video; it's [the video] is fun and eccentric which definitely suits Hayley. Whenever the song comes on in my car I can't help but dance and formally embarrass myself in public; but the song is so catchy that the embarrassment is definitely something I can live with!
Here's the video:
I know, I know.. you can thank me later. It's great right!? So hard to contain those dance moves you've been dying to bust out. Since her unique outfit isn't the only thing that stands out to me, I'm also going to post the lyrics to the song!
"Still Into You"
Can't count the years on one hand that we've been together I need the other one to hold you Make you feel, make you feel better It's not a walk in the park to love each other But when our fingers interlock, Can't deny, can't deny you're worth it 'Cause after all this time, I'm still into you I should be over all the butterflies But I'm into you (I'm into you) And baby even on our worst nights I'm into you (I'm into you) Let 'em wonder how we got this far 'Cause I don't really need to wonder at all Yeah after all this time I'm still into you Recount the night that I first met your mother And on the drive back to my house I told you that, I told you that I loved ya You felt the weight of the world fall off your shoulder And to your favorite song we sang along to the start of forever And after all this time, I'm still into you I should be over all the butterflies But I'm into you (I'm into you) And baby even on our worst nights I'm into you (I'm into you) Let 'em wonder how we got this far 'Cause I don't really need to wonder at all Yeah after all this time I'm still into you Some things just, some things just make sense and one of those is you and I (Hey) Some things just, some things just make sense and even after all this time (Hey) I'm into you, baby not a day goes by that I'm not into you I should be over all the butterflies But I'm into you (I'm into you) And baby even on our worst nights I'm into you (I'm into you) Let 'em wonder how we got this far 'Cause I don't really need to wonder at all Yeah after all this time I'm still into you I'm still into you I'm still into you
So catchy! My favorite part definitely has to be the line "Let 'em wonder how we got this far 'cause I don't really need to wonder at all." It's such a clever line and definitely one I can relate to. I've been with my boyfriend for almost two years and I still have the same feelings for him that I did the first day we met!
Here's a picture of Cody and I at my senior prom:
Well, enough mushy love stuff and onto the topic I am MOSTexcited to write about: HAYLEY'S OUTFIT! I have been drooling over it, literally, since I first saw the video.
PERFECTION! From head to toe, perfection. It's very rare that someone could pull off a look like this, but she does effortlessly. If you're dying to know where each piece of clothing she is wearing is from, you're in luck because I did some research and found it all online!
1) Topshop Dweeb Crop Top ($20.00), 2) Topshop Wide Hinge Detail Belt*SOLD OUT* ($40.00) 3) URB Neon Yellow Melting Tights ($65.00) 4) Dr Martens White 1460 Boots ($120.00). 5) Rose Pink Latex Swing Dress from Syren Latex ($243.00). 6)Unif Pastel Moto Jacket, available at Dollskill.com ($170.00) In total this outfit comes to$658.00! Which is something a rock star could totally afford, however, that is definitely not realistic for someone with a budget! Which is why I'm going to give you some alternatives that are very similar but less expensive.
