Collective Haul

This are a couple of things that I've got since mid November as gifts from my mother.  It feels weird being spoiled by her now that I'm and adult; usually was the other way around...God works in mysterious ways!

I'm very sure this is not a shirt like mom said.  It looks more like sleepwear?

because on my is to long to be a t-shirt but to short to be a dress, I have to wear it leggings or skinny jeans

From K Mart

This one is from Gatsby ($12).  

Not my kind of print, but once I tried it on I couldn't resist!

This one might need to wait for spring because is getting chilly here

Also from Gatsby ($11)

This one was an impulse buy. From Old Navy girls dept ($3)

I'm 29, I shouldn't be wearing shirts like this, but I looked super cute at the time! 

after reality check: not so much! :\  I might give it away

Another find from girls dept, this time at JC Penney ($11)

This purple cardigan is great, super comfy and warm!

I added the black blouse underneath for illustration

boots from K Mart ($19.99)

I was surprised at how comfortable they feel

wearing them with thighs and mini skirt

 -not so mini on my 5'2" hahaha-

Small random haul

Hi there!
Here again, with some things I hauled at Burlington a while ago.

I got a Elf neon nail polish trio $2.99 and the Beauty Eye Manual palette $4.49

Also got this black flowy top.  It has pewter sequins clusters in the front, and a zipper in the back $12.99

 

I needed a  bag to carry some books & stuff at college, so mom got me this one but I don't remember where? It was very cheap; like $5  :)

In to the fitting room: 3.22.11

In this edition, things I got at Marshalls after having fun at Sephora.  As in Burlington I found some cute tops from a brand called Living Doll.  I wanted to get some more but some where running big and they didn't have it in medium :(
Again, sorry for the bra, navel and cleavage action! :P

I know, they look weird without my head LoL

my stuff:
♥ silver heart necklace from Avon
♥ on my nails: Avon Fast Dry+ mambo melon
♥ jeans: one of my five? pairs of flared jeans from Charlotte Russe LoL

Renewing my wardrobe

I've been dieting and exercising regularly since mid April to reach my goal of 140 lbs.  I started at 239, five -hard!- months latter I'm in 175; that means -64 and hope! to keep on motivated until I reach my goal and of course, have the will power to maintain it overtime.  This whole process have changed my life like I never thought it would.  Some changes have been difficult for me to accept or to acknowledge; for example; after shopping pretty much all my life in special stores or plus size dept and knowing before hand what size or brands will fit me better; now I don't know what size I am? Shopping for clothes now is even more stressing than when I was bigger. I have to go store to store "hunting" for something that fits me. I remember the first time I went to Charlotte Russe [to get something for me], was browsing the jeans area and a girl that works there offered to help me; when she asked what size I was, had to tell her that I didn't know but she was a sweet heart and helped my find the right one, I'm so loving their jeans!

I wanted to take pics at some new things I've got in the lasts weeks but looks like my camera died.  This time pics will be from the sites of the stores I purchased them.  If my camera revives or I get a new one, will think about doing "outfit of the weekend"; pics of my going out assembles :D
