Life Lately

Hello my lovely friends! How has your week been so far? Excited for the weekend? I know I am! My big sis is actually getting married tomorrow, which is absolutely crazy. My schedule has been completely bonkers because of it, and that's why blogging kind of took the back burner. Tonight was the rehearsal and dinner, and I got some cute pictures of my family and I. I'm the maid of honor, so I'm staying at this Bed & Breakfast (the cutest) with the rest of the bridal party, and I'm definitely soaking up its relaxation. I even got to take a bath! Last October my mom ripped out the master bath, so we no longer own a tub. :(

Pure bliss.
Last weekend all of my close friends and I had the most wonderful time surprising my good friend, Tim, with an eighteenth birthday party! It was a blast. I seriously love my friends; they are honestly so great. I always say I would love to have friends interested in fashion and what not, but sometimes it's good to have that diversity. It keeps the conversation flowing, in a sense. I just can't believe I have less than a semester left with them. More photos to come soon of the wedding, but until then, I hope you enjoy your weekend :)

United States of Whatever


Basically.


That's pretty much how I've been feeling lately. Blah. Whatever. I don't know what's been up with me; life has kind of turned into this never-ending rut of apathy and conformity. Don't get me wrong... I love my friends, but sometimes I crave more diversity and similar interests. I want a friend I can talk art and music and fashion to. 

I think that's why I've been so blah recently, because my blog and YouTube have always been that friend I can talk to, and I haven't been keeping up with it at all lately. In fact I haven't been productive at all; I've been watching a lot of Mad Men, I will tell you that. 

I need to stop forcing myself so much, I think. I need to just be me in my posts and my YouTube, and have everyone deal with it. I need to stop feeling pressure to be someone I'm not.

Maybe I need to start doing more word posts like this, because they honestly make me feel much better. When it comes down to it, I think I'm in a rut, and I need an escape. I need that one thing that motivates me. Who knows what it is.

My Week in Photos

 Hello! I have returned with another "My Week in Photos" post (on time!). I didn't post too many on Instagram this week, but I did have a wonderful week in general. If you want to follow me on IG, search the username foxinater! I update it quite frequently.
Ohh, Merlin. He's my sweet little pup.

Couldn't resist ;)

The struggle.

Relaxing morning!
See you tomorrow!

OOTD: Raspberry & Leather


Raspberry lips that say come here and a leather jacket that says close enough.

Hey guys! How was your weekend? :)
I just had the most perfect day, I've decided. I went thrifting/shopping with my mom and it was the most beautiful day, and now I'm sitting down to craft and do homework.  It's finally cooling down here in Chicago, and I plan to take full advantage of that before it cools down too much. This is what I wore out, and I absolutely love it so I thought I would show it to you.



I decided to play around with black and raspberry; it's such a cute combination.


Angst queen.


When I went out to shoot the photos, the lighting was absolutely beautiful.



In love with my new ring.

After thrifting we headed to Bath & Body works and I picked up some hand sanitizers and a new scent! I actually got the little sample one of this scent, Amber Blush, a week ago and fell in love. They have a 5 for $5 sale going on for the little hand sanitizers, and I took advantage of that. ;) I'm going to be updating my Etsy shop soon with tons of cute, vintage clothing and fall-inspired, hand-made accessories! Keep a look out for that. Until then, au revoir!

My Week in Photos

As you know, it is now Thursday, so this post is a little while overdo. (Oops, sorry!) But I liked it enough that I wanted to do it again. I thought I would just show my Instagram photos from last week up until Monday.

Can't get enough berets and sweaters!



Got my hair done

Homecoming!




Look forward to a haul ;)
How was your week?

Wednesday Wishes: Sweater Weather

Hello! How are you today? Happy Wednesday ^_^ As we all know today is my little wishlist day, I thought I would give it an appropriate sweater theme, since it's starting to (finally) cool down. I've found myself with fewer sweaters than I anticipated, so I've been doing a little shopping around.

These first few are from Urban Outfitters:
                  

The next ones are from Sheinside!

Which sweater is your favorite? Comment down below and let me know!

October Vibes




Hey guys! Happy October! Around this time of year, I generally become very thoughtful and contemplative. I love listening to mellow music and just thinking about life. This year is especially bad because it's my senior year, and I've been thinking about my life as a "kid" and I'm happy but sad to see it fly past my eyes. Regardless of all of this, I like to feel inspired. This is the time I feel most inspired. So listen to my mellow and angsty playlist I've made for October and take a gander at my inspiration for this month. (Click on the photos for their sources!)
