School buys - New Boots

Back to school is around the corner and for some of y'all it's in the next few weeks. There are what I've been looking at to add to my shoe collection for this new school year and fall essentially.
 I saw these displayed in Nordstrom and nearly bought it without thinking. It has the same style as the Troopa because it's still laced but it's half the height of the shaft of the boot and the cuff adds the perfect edge. If I do end up buying this, I would definitely choose the black since I already own brown boots. I own another pair of black booties from Forever 21. Have to say I'm not a huge fan of them. I've literally worn them like twice and they were both to Lady Gaga concerts. These would definitely replace them and get much better wear than those boots. BUT anyway! I would recommend buying them now during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale! I will probably wait on them, sad face cause I'm a broke college student. In the description is warns to order a size smaller cause I guess they run large so I would definitely try them on first.
 I love over the knee boots because I was inspired by Sailor Moon to own a pair. I currently own one over the knee boot (The American Rag ones) and adore them. I wore them throughout my San Francisco Trip and they kept me warm during the cooler weather of northern Cali. But I like these ones because they look almost thigh high and they don't flap over. I haven't tried them on yet, but if I ever get a chance to, I will let you know how they fit!
I've been unable to acquire my Human Aliens and Hellbounds, so I've been contemplating other pink shoes. I guess you can never have too many boots. These would definitely be a contender if they never come back in stock. Sad face.

Enjoy the weekend.

J. Crew Kids' suede MacAlister Boots review

I bought these suckers in store and had them shipped to my house cause apparently J. Crew hates holding kids shoes in stores. Just kidding. I'm sure they have a wonderful reason why they don't carry more children's attire in their stores. ANYWAYS. So the lovely salesperson was really helpful in finding the shoe for me since clearly the men's size was way too large, and the funny thing is, we based off the size from literally measuring my friend's foot and even then it still too big and it ended up fitting me. I wear a size 7 and ordered k5 in the kids size so for future references and you're interesting in buying the kids shoes women's size 7 equates to kids k5 or whatever the sizing is on it.


There's the link in case you're interested in buying, which I'm sure isn't the case.
Happy Weekend.

Put your hands on up for me and feel the paranoia lookbook

I absolutely adore this look because it's so simple and works for multiple occasions.

This dress is great because it's a maxi and it has an embroidered pattern on the back to make it look a bit dressier. Yeah I know, I need new sunglasses and earrings for my looks. I added my flower to the dress to accent my hair and give more color. (Yeah, right it was on my head and I wanted to put the hat on and put it there and took the picture forgetting to take it off.)
Inspiration behind this look was Ella Riot's Karma. So love this song. If you haven't heard it check it out.
Wore:
MAC Candy Yum Yum
Forever 21 Maxi
Target Round Sunglasses
Macy's Earrings
Hat from grandma's house

Tank and Lace Racerback Dress from Victoria's Secret

 Bought this one in this pink. I was interested in buying it in white, which H&M had a similar one but the material wasn't thick enough so it was very see-through. It runs a bit large because it's meant to be worn with a bandeau but if you're not interested in wearing a bandeau, I'd buy the smaller size and wear a stickie boobs bra so that way it doesn't show, or wear a bra that doesn't show all the straps. I particularly like their dress because even though it's a tight fit it doesn't expose all your curves and is actually flattering. I originally wanted it in the tribal print but it sold out during the semi-annual sale. Plus in stores the dress is now $15.
This one is also selling for $15 and I got this one in black. I'm planning on using it as a cover-up as it advertises because it's way to baggy to be wearing it as a dress.

I had a $10 off so I got the dresses for $20 and tax so it was a great deal.
I plan on styling the tank dress with black leather vest and my damsels. Look to come!
