Back up and Running. 

Christmas is coming and spirits are high. (: Mine are at least! 

Do you also feel that way, that you're using all your energy up until the last breath, all the way up till the divide of the New year. It seems that everything goes down hill after that- And in a good way. In the sense that summer is soon coming and everything it brighter and happier, and the sun is warmer and brighter and shines longer. 

Still, it is December. The last few steps till the New Year. 

Things are getting brighter already, feeling warmer and excitement is bubbling inside of me! 

Haha- you might think thats weird, but i have so many thoughts and feelings and memories associated with this time of year, and even through all the "blips" that you may have had to over come in these past few months don't necessarily matter anymore.

ANYWAY- ENOUGH with the writing!!!

I am just gonna post all the pictures that i have taken these past few weeks, since i haven't had a second in my day to post or blog... Because i mean,  I'm not gonna just upload a pic! Writing is the fun part- sharing:)  Don't you agree? 

The "dress" is a cute little romper (forever 21). Then just throw on a long sleeved underneath, some leggings and cute fall boots. Possibly a jean jacket, because they're awesome(: 

And obviously, NEver leave the house with out a scarf;) 

Sideways pic;) 

The Skirt is a tight one (urban behavior), and i never knew what to wear with it, because it warm for the fall/winter. Then i found this bright pink t-shirt and thought it was the perfect amount of color to add to a grey outfit. I put a light sweater with it then, mostly because i love the how it ties:) And then a dark scarf to pull it all together:) 

Since its been so long since i last blogged, I'm gonna share some stuffage with you guys(:

My recent obsessions;) hahaha: 

-PINTEREST!!!! (If you don't know it, get on it!! its a site where you have "boards" - cyber pin boards- and you can organize them under categories, find and re "Pin" pictures, and follow people! LOVE IT!) 

- NASHVILLE!!! (A new show on ABC- if you're interested in music (especially country music) this show is amazing! BUT still its just about life and people, so i think you should check it out no matter what) 

-SCARFS: to be honest, i think it's always been one, but i've only really come to realize it now:) 

-NAIL POLISH: right now i LOVE having pretty colors on my finger nails. I feel like it adds color when the weather is yucky and the snow is being stubborn. Also, its just happiness for your fingers ( other than RINGS- another one of my favorite things right now)

OKaayyy- i think thats quite enough for today. haha:) 

I will upload More pictures tomorrow:)

Hello Everyone,

Today I realized it's been a long time since i've written a post, and today i finally feel excited about it again!:) (also because i feel you all getting bored! I'll keep posting, promise!) 

So here are a few from the past whilee... 

Number 1(: 

I love this top. There are like 4 different ways you can wear it, so i will definitely be uploading those, sooN!:) 

Number 2: 

Once (upon a time) i had this phase where i only wore belts. I HAD to always find an outfit which i could wear a belt with. That stopped for a while... but maybe its back. 

Belts are just so fun and you and wear even a normal (by that i mean a "hold up your pants" belt haha) with a T shirt and you're ready to go!;) 

Number three on its way.... (: 

Its good to be back:)

Bloggs! 

Hey guys, i know its late, but i stummbled accross the cutest online store/blog and wanted to share it with you!:) 

Isn't this shirt the coolest??? i think so:)) 

Now you wanna see more, right?;) i knew it:)

Here it is!!:)

New Music! 

Has anyone heard Taylor Swifts Recent song from her new (4th) upcoming album "Red". Its being released October 22 (!!!) and one by one songs are already hitting the charts! 

Personally, i love this one(: 

"I knew you were Trouble" - Taylor Swift

Inspirations are AWESOME, so if you have any, please share!:)

Just another day...

...nowhere close to paradise, but sometimes sparkles help(:

 I wasn't really a big fan of anything sparkly for a loooong time. too long now as i think back on it.  

For some reason i thought it made me seem to girly or too prissy. I don't even know my reasoning for it anymore, cause now i love anything thats sparkly!:)

... however only to a certain extent. there is such thing for me as sparkle overload. ha. 

Again, not only do i have sparkles, BUT the BB (black brown) thing goin' on;) haha.

White tank & black pants: Sirenes, Brown Tank: forever 21, sweater Zara

Also, necklaces are always a fun accessory. Sometimes, if i'm wearing something really casual and i feel its too boring, thats what i do- add necklaces. LOTS of them:)  

Here is another recent outfit. Its just the top, but it's just a big T with a belt. I wore color jeans with it to add some color, but this is a good "go to" for those days where you feel lazy and would much rather just wear a big Sweater, but still you'd rather not. (those situations can become very tricky;)) 

T & Scarf : H&M, belt: forever 21

Brandi!:) 

Also, scrunches are ALWAS fun:)

Just look Around

Hey guys, 

Unfortunately this will only be a "half"post. There is an outfit, however i don't have any individuals... sorry. 

Anyhow(: This is a great knit wear for any season. With bright shorts in the summer, or browns in the fall. I can already many ways i'll be wearing it in winter and spring(: 

This was taken from a stupid angle. There are these shorts underneath. 

Heres the proof;) 

(knit dress: ZARA, belt & shorts: forever 2) 

 So today i gave the blog the name of "Just look Around"- for a reason of course. The best way to get fashion ideas is to simply look around you. There are all kinds of styles out there, and you might see how someone wears something one way, and you suddenly realize how you can incorporate their ideas into your own(:
I had to upload what my friend was wearing today. I thought the idea of the pencil skirt with a big knit sweater was such a great idea for a cold (rainy disgusting) fall day.

 What do you think? 

-DTR

Curls, Straight, or a "fruzzeld" state... 

Yes i know. That word doesn't exist... BUT it should. Its like "frazzled"- but better. 

Anyhow. Clothing isn't the only style i like to incorporate to an outfit or my mood. I LOVE doing my hair. If my outfit is toned down, then i like to do something fun and fancy with my hair, but if my outfit is a bit much, then i tone my hair down a bit. It's kinda like a balancing math thing for me. Even though i hate math, so why would i even compare those two thing?! yeah, i don't know either. 

ANYHOW. here are some recent knots i've managed to tangle into my hair:) haha 

take a look:) 

My hair is really thick so i can really only afford to curl is with a straightening iron- saves so much time:) 

This is a french braid. I started out with twist back just through the middle, that i was gonna just pin back with a little clip. BUT then i was bored of it, so i took the hair pinned back, and started braiding it. At the front (as you might be able to see in the picture) there is a little twist. I like/try to twist every piece of hair as i braid it. 

then i just clipped the hair back, and "crumpled" my hair up into a messy bun(: 

Stay tuned:) more creativity coming!:) 

-DTR 

Who Says? 

Who says you can't wear black with brown? Isn't black suppose to match with everything? 

I always used to wear either black OR brown. Never mixing the two up. As if it were some kind of fashion sin. ha! what do I know?! I'm as far from a fashionista as anyone can be. 

Just like to take this chance to also add, that what i post on this blog is purely my style. What i love to wear, what i feel good in. I'm definitely not "all knowing" about the rules in the fashion world, and to be honest, even if i did know them, i probably wouldn't follow them.

Thats the thing. this blog is not about what everyone else is wearing, Because i rarely liked to be categorized with "everybody" else. 

So if you enjoy my blog, please come back and visit often(: and if you don't, just click on. There are thousands of other beautiful blogs, because everyone is different, and everyone perceives things differently. 

Anyways. My point being, don't take what i say too seriously, and don't quote me on my knowledge, because who knows, right? But who says i cant wear black and brown.

Also I think I'm gonna try mixing patterns. I mean, why not? 

My theory is, if you feel good and you look cute/sexy/hot/sassy (whatever it is you're going for) to yourself with what you're wearing, wear it with a smile. That my dears, you can quote me on:)

Planning on making a new cover:)

Hello everyone(: hope you're all happy its the weekend:)
I am, even though wednesday was a holiday here anyways, so... haha. i just like to be happy when school work can be put to the back of my head (until sunday), so i can blog and listen to music, and play guitar, and write.... oh the things i would accomplish if i had everyday to myself. haha.
Anyways, moving on now(:

Here is an outfit i picked out a couple days ago.
The shirt is very short and flowy, and unless you want your 'sexxxy' (yes...:/) belly showing for some kinda of party, or who knows what, then you need to wear a shirt underneath, and then your curves might possibly dissapear. So my idea was to add a belt.

Oh! i should also mention, that my friend was wearing the cutest like "baggy jeans", with a cute white flowy top, and i thought i was so "adorbs" (as she would say), so i tried to copy it with theses jeans, but i feel they're not quite "Baggy" enough.

Tell me what you think:

Here are some "individs"... ha. ha. (i am really pathetic with these short forms) 

(sweater: Promode) 

 (shirt:urban outfitters, hat: Promode)  

I swear, i can't even tell you how in love i am with this vest... i don't usually wear a lot of fur, but i love the little plaid on the inside, and it's just the perfect "jacket" for fall, to throw over a cozy knit sweater.  (vest: H&M)

oh yes that reminds me. i love knit sweaters! i have a feeling that will be on the top of my list soon(: 

if you have a favorite knit sweater post some pics!:) 

OH also:) Special call out to LIsa for reading my blogg! haha such a cuite! i complimented her on her outfit today, and she was like "i got it from your blog"!!(: 

 Her shoes are also awesome!(: 

makes me happy:) thats what this is for, really:)  just wanna share what i love with everyone!:) haha

so please share, bookmark, post the link to my blog(: plaster it everywhere! ahha:) 

also some other things that randomly made my happy today, if you're interested in reading on for a bit(: .... 

 My balcony today. i thought it was cool with the bright light and the sky. But everything just seems to look better in real life.... 

Also, i found this manikin online, and i love hanging scarfs and jewelry on it:) cool, oR?(: 

I wish you all a wonderful weekend! relax, and just take a breather form the fast life for a while. Sometimes its nice not to have to consume yourself with everything going on around you and just do something YOU wanna do! LIke do all the activities from the DIY posts on Pinterest! Something thats "defs" (...yeah:/ haha!) on my to do list:)

PLease Share this song!!
Its called 'Never' by Scotty James, a new Canadian Artist!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oe-ao-iGHL8
(You can also follow him on fb http://www.facebook.com/scottyjamesmusic :))

Please check some of his other songs like "miss you good" or "wanna be loved"
(: thanks!!

Touching him was like, realizing all you ever wanted 
Was right there in front of you
Memorizing him was as, easy as knowin' all the words
To your old favorite song
Fighting with him was like tryin' to solve a 
Crossword and realizing there's no right answer<3 


Who's in love with Taylor Swifts new song "RED"? i am:)
thinking about doing a cover... how does that sound? (:

Today is a "special" day. because i've decided to do two postings!:) .... yay! ...yes. 

haha, so the second one will come later, a little bit less fashion orientated, but first down to the important things:

This summer i was dying to find a pair of floral pants, and i found a pair that i absolutely love, however now i feel like i have trouble finding cute outfits/tops or "others" to accessorize them with(: 

Here's what i came up with...

 

So... feedback? (: here are the individual pieces and where they are from:) 

 (sweater: ZARA)

(pants: bluenotes)

(White top: forever 21) 

So let me know what you think(: 

or what else you love with floral anything. (also i think i forgot to add the link to the awesome bloggg i talked about last time:) so here it is! Its AmAzInG so Check It Out!:) http://merricksart.blogspot.de/ )

Second fun post on its way(: 

-DTR 

Happy sunday(:
Hoping you had a wonderful weekend:)
Here is the last day of last weeks. I usually like to stay in PJ's on the weekend if i have no where to be, so unless you want me to post one on my "cute Pajama" look, i say i just stick to posts on weekday looks (:

I really love this skirt, but for the longest time, i couldn't find a fun top to wear with it... yes. Do you know how that is? standing in front of your closet for hours hoping that a new top will magically appear. (If you're really hoping/wanting that, check out this blog- so fun, i love it!)

Bottom line, i've decided i love high neck tops, if they have a low or open or something funky going on in the back:)

(pink top: Garage, Skirt: Urban behavior, scarf-  H&M. white top ZARA.

Please post comments/LIKE bitte(: and/or send me links on songs you love or blog/outfits that you like! i love feedback(:
see you soon!
-DTR

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT!!!:DD

This is the way to go. Here you have it, exactly what you've been waiting for to speed up those long hours of standing in front of your closet in the morning, when you really only have 20 min. 

The answer to your problems! 

Quick and easy mornings(: Really, its just a formula:) 

Enjoy it! Use it! i will:) 

-DTR (:

Happy wednesday:) week's almost over...kinda (:

So here we have just another one, of the fall outfits (many which are still well on the way). 

Today it was really hot here (up to 25°C/ 75°F), and it can be hard to find a suitable outfit for those cold mornings that stretch out into warm, sunny, fall afternoons. 

So here it is:) comment, bitte!(: 

 I always like to think about incorporating what Jacket i plan on wearing, when i first put on something in the morning. 

Individual items...

Tights: 

I have to admit, that i love tights that bring a little bit of pattern to a bunch of plain shirts. 

I love taking something, which would usually be too fancy, and styling it down. Bring out the casual side of the item;) 

Dress:

For this idea you can really use anything: a long shirt, a baggy one, a long tank-top. 

...and just add a cute little belt- voila:) 

layer it up, baby! :

This particular dress ended up being very baggy when i first put it on, plus i decided it needed some color. 

i didn't want to be wearing 3 different tank-tops underneath the dress, so i put a colorful bandeau over top of a different shade of brown, for the bright Tiel to stick out of the top.  

(tank from "forever 21", bandeau from "garage") 

Accessorize: 

This is one of my favorite pendants to put on a chain. Its simple yet fun and elegant and you can match it with just about anything:) pair of jeans and a white t-shirt, a fun dress and heals, i could go on:) 

Earlier this morning, the air still seemed a little crisp so i wore these purple leg warmers:) 

I think my lovely friend really enjoyed commenting on the "pom-poms".. again and again:) 

i still think they're cute though:) 

Of course i needed some kind of a scarf to finish it off:) 

Infinity scarf (H&M)

 

(sorry i can't tell you where some of the items are from, but i've had some for sooo long!!!:)) 

Please come visit again soon,

like, comment, post, and share:) 

wow. its late:) have a wonderful wednesday still, everyone:) 

goodnight!:)
