OOTD: Outfit of the Day!

So as you know if you've been reading my blog, I sometimes share what outfit I have on if I feel that that outfit is amazing or just needs to be shared. Today is one of those days. Here goes!

Top: 

The top is a Spense sleeveless blue shirt with thick black straps and a black band around the bottom. Here's a picture I took of it: 

Anyway, I got this shirt at a thrift store a week or two ago for $7.00 That's pretty cheap but not cheap for a thrift store. However, I love it so I don't care. This shirt feels so soft and it flows like liquid. 

Bottoms: 

I'm wearing a black Wrapper faux wrap skirt. My mother got this skirt for my sister but I'm wearing it because the skirt she got me is XL and I haven't been XL for a while so it doesn't fit properly. Anyway, I don't know the price of course since my mother got it, not me. 

I am also wearing Solo Wear leggings that I've talked about before and they were also bought from the thrift store but a while ago. 

Accessories: 

For accessories I am wearing two hijab scarfs in the colors blue and black. They match perfectly with the shirt! 

I am also wearing black and blue socks and black fingerless gloves with lace on them and a bow:

Makeup: 

For makeup(which I wear mostly only to accessorize my outfits), I am wearing blue and black eyeshadow, mascara(because my lashes got dusted in blue), and kohl liner: 

The blue looks darker and less silvery  irl and it matches my shirt as well. 

So yeah, that's my outfit of the day. Just felt like sharing because I absolutely love it! <3

Signing off for now, annyeong, sayonara, salaams, adios, au revoir, byeeee!!!

Fashion Show, Giveaways, and My OOTD

"So what's been up in MyaLand?", you might've been wondering. Or not. Doesn't matter, I'm telling you anyways. :P

Well, first off: OMG, Teen Fashion Show is in two days!!! I've finished my outfit but I am doing some touch ups on it plus I need to finish my chip bag basket weave purse. I still don't have a model, waahh. TT_TT :(((( I really need to hurry up and find someone otherwise: no fashion show for me. My brother is the only one of us who has a model(lucky son of a gun). My outfit is looking really good though and it came out great and I'm just so happy and excited. 

Second things second: Giveaways. Need I say more? Yes? Oh, okay then. Well as you probably already know, I love free stuff(I mean who doesn't?). When your family is near dead broke like mine is, you have to take every chance you can get to possibly get something you want for free. So, what is it specifically about giveaways that I'm talking about? Well, I was on Instagram the other day and this one lady I follow is having a giveaway for Divine Hair Extensionz. I'm not really interested in that myself but I did notice that she added #giveaway. I thought "Hmm, if there's a hashtag for it, maybe I can find more giveaways through #giveaway." And find more I sure did. There were all kinds of giveaways on there, over 700,000 posts with #giveaway. I saw t-shirt giveaways, healthy cookie giveaways, purse giveaways, and most importantly: makeup giveaways! Sooo much makeup giveaways! I was so happy because makeup can get pretty expensive and I really would like different lip products and eyeshadow colors and brushes without having to pay a grip. And yes, I know, there are cheap products but a lot of other people's "cheap" is not my cheap. My cheap is dollar for everything. XD Not, really but $4-$8 for mascara is not what I consider cheap. So yeah, free or near free makeup is what I'm about. :D

My OOTD: So I have another outfit that I'd love to share with you, whoever you are, lol. :D 
Today I am wearing Black, White and Red. You see, black and white is my fave color combo and when you add a bold color in with it, it just pops even more, I love it! So for my black white and red ensemble I am wearing: A white shirt from Dots(same shirt i talked about last time coincidentally :)), A greyish black Bubblegum mini-skirt that I got from my great aunt that was originally her daughter's(who i guess would be considered my second cousin then), Laila's red hoodie, and Laila's and my black leggings(we share). 

So here's how I put it together: Shirt tucked into skirt(I never actually used to like tucking my shirts in because I had a tummy and it would pout over the pants or skirt and just be emphasized but I've lost weight since then(around 28 pounds! still a bit more to go though) so my stomach no longer pokes out or stands out unless I stuff myself silly :P), leggings under skirt, and hoodie tied around midsection right on top of the belt loops of the skirt. I might or might not add my Claire's socks but until I decide, sock-less my feet shall stay. :D
To cover my hair I'm wearing three scarfs(not that I need more than one, it's just fashion). Two are the square-ish shaped tube scarfs that look like this:

 

One is black and the other is white. The last scarf is just a regular scarf shape with fringe at the ends. It's sheer and red.

So yeah, that's my OOTD. I'm going to enjoy it for the rest of the day and maybe even tomorrow as well if I don't end up changing(Yes, I sleep in my clothes, deal with it :P)

So that's pretty much it for my update on my life. Signing off for now, salaams, au revoir, sayonara, adios, annyeong, byeeee!!!

P.S. In the course of writing this blog, Laila and I might have a model, yay! She'll be coming over today and she'll model for the both of us. Awesome, right?

Painting a Picture

Hi! Painting a picture in someone's mind is hard. Like I'd love to paint a picture to you of yesterday's outfit which I abso-friggin'-lutely loved! However, it might be quite hard. I'm going to give it a shot anyway.

Yesterday I decided I wanted to go girly(or girlish as said by a friend of mine) and wear a dress. Unfortunately, I don't have the kind of flouncy, girly dress I was thinking of so here's what I came up with: 

I wore a plain white tee(like the band! XD), 3/4 sleeved. Over it I wore my sister's flouncy light blue patterned skirt(the pattern is an exotic funky mix of dark blue and white) that I love. I wore it as a mini dress. I tied a belt around the waist to define the shape and so it wouldn't look frumpy. Luckily the waistband of the skirt was pretty tight and held on firmly above my chest(I call it this because the other words sound so nasty(ooh, you so nasty! EYK ref FTW)). So then because I couldn't very well go around the house with a make-shift minidress on and my bare legs showing(or could I? No, I couldn't), I wore some regular blue jeggings(I don't mind wearing pants with dresses but sometimes I like to wear jeggings). I accessorized with just my sparkly heart earrings and that was all. That was my outfit for yesterday.

My outfit today isn't as grand so I don't feel like I need to tell so I'll just go ahead and sign off for now. Bye, Salaam, Ciao, Annyeong, Salut, Adiós!!!
