I am so overwhelmed and touched by all the support and loyalty you all gave me on my decision to move my blog towards a different direction! Thank you! Here's to ch-ch-ch-changes!
It rained randomly yesterday, but the sun was shining magnificently today! Yet, I'm still in tights. I'm just not ready for bare legs yet...Ugh, why do transitions between seasons have to be so awkward? Especially the shift from Winter to Spring! You can bet I'll be in tights until the heat is unbearable. I think one reason why I don't want to shed my tights is because I don't have any cute strappy sandals yet. Usually I'm in sandals all year long here in Southern California, but with the discovery of oxfords in the Fall...I've neglected buying sandals.
These were taken in the Medical section of my university. This hill had such a glorious view, and it was secluded...or so I thought. While I was searching for something to prop my camera on so I can take outfit photos, I found a table next to a window. Since it was after 6pm, I thought no one was in that classroom anymore, but...there was an entire classroom! Thank goodness Robert called me shortly after to tell me he was off class, so he came and took my photos for me (away from the window...). Phew! They must've been entertained watching a girl prouncing in a royal blue skirt taking photos of a lonely red chair.
(wearing: blue striped top--h&m; green bow accessory--forever 21; blue skirt and saddle oxfords--urban outfitters)
Remember my red bag that I took with me to New York, but the strap broke while I was there? I took it to a leather repair store, and I'm so anxious to get it back on Thursday. As much as I adore my black chain purse...I just feel a cross-body bag would complete so many of my outfits, and it's a lot bigger for me to carry around all my school things. So I ordered another one online and it was shipped today (last bag I'm going to buy for a while...hopefully!)! I just feel the cross-body strap sort of just holds everything in place...Does that make any sense? Oy...I really should invest in some belts.
What can I say? I'm more of a bag-girl--other accessories are just ignored. But I did some thinking today and I think I'm good on bags now (though I am frantically searching for a leather backpack), actual shoes, striped tops (except for a red one), and bows. I think I just need to invest in some new bottoms like a pair of relaxed trousers, more skirts, and a pair of high-waisted shorts. I didn't realize how many tops I have until while shopping, I spotted this top I really liked and was about to try it on, and then I realized I already had it! Eek! Not a good sign...!
Well back to pretending to read my textbooks I go! I hope everyone's week is going well so far!
Until next post,
Jasmine

Goodness, you are adorable! I love the stripes and bright colors. And. I am totalllly not ready to let go of my tights either. I hate the transition from winter to spring. It just goes from dull dark colors to bright happy shorts and tees SO fast. Summer to fall is so much easier as is spring to summer. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteThe pictures are beautifulll :)
love,
maggie:)
Haha! Funny story about the class. And I can't believe you didn't realize you already had the top! At least you realized before it was too late, no? (: I really love the lighting in these photos Jasmine, so pretty. I just gave you the Sunshine Award, love!

you look gorgeous in these shots! i love the sunlight coming in from the left through the volleyball net. i love this classic jasmine look :)
ReplyDeletedid you get the same exact bag from urban or was it a different style? and speaking of bags, i've been looking for a leather backpack as well!!!! i'm gonna go pretend to read my textbooks as well now.
oh! and that necklace for the dynamic duo, i FINALLY got around to styling it so hopefully by the end of the week i can send it over to you! yaaay!
Haha Jasmine you're hilarious! I think I've done that before, trying on something I already own. I love this blue look on you, everything matches perfectly! That chair picture is gorgeous! Reminds me of those squeaky classroom chairs. Oh fun, can't wait to see your new bag! I have a new bag in my mind to look for too! Here's to us finding our dream bags (that was lame but true).
ReplyDeleteHi Jazzie <3 nice seeing you back in stripes and the blue skirt :) I'm always self-conscious when taking pictures in public. I always try to find an empty alley and whenever someone passes by, I pretend I'm looking for something on the ground, puahahaha :D Were you talking about the UO red bag? I have the same problem with mine! The straps are coming off the bag, must have been cheaply made. I haven't taken it to the repair shop cus' I'm afraid it's gonna cost more than the actual bag :(

ReplyDeleteSo so so cute! I've missed you lately and I can't wait to see the wonderful changes for Transient Withdrawal! The lighting in these photos are gorgeous, by the way. I really need to visit CA someday.
ReplyDeleteTerrific as always! You look so cute in that blue dress. And how frugal to take a bag to a leather place! I never do that (although I guess I should) because I'm just plain lazy.
ReplyDeleteLOL! that is totally a sign you have many tops! so funny! at least you didn't have to spend money for that shirt you wanted! haha. already in your closet! :D
ReplyDeletei am excited for the change of your blog to pictures and things. i love all your pictures and i definitely think you should focus on your passions. you are very talented on capturing images!!! :D
I always wonder what people passing by think when I am taking outfit photos... but I don't let it bother me enough to stop. You look fantastic, and the lighting is really beautiful here.
