Changes


I had mentioned earlier that I got a haircut. However, I did not express the awsomeness of the cut. I have not had bangs in several years, but I wanted a change. Atalie, the woman who cuts my hair, made it so that I can have bangs and not have them with simply changing my part. That's some major hair cutting skills.

Since I went home sick, I never heard if we were allowed to wear jeans since Wednesday was the Friday for the week. I can't believe I just typed that, I hate the dress code. So, I wore these pants that look like jeans but are actually polyester. In case I got in trouble. I guess being a rebel now means breaking the dress code.

I went home sick today with a fever. I think I knew it subconsciously since I wore this sweater that just seems like a sweater you wear when comfort is needed.

I love the details on these pants.

I got another new pair of shoes. I really likes them, I want to wear them all the time. However, I will have to wait for the weekend. One of the kids at the Urban Outfitters told me he liked them a lot but that he did not think I would wear them. Whatever that means... I am also getting rid of those pants, they became too light after washing them and look awful.

I do not usually mix patterns. I am not much of a risk taker with that. I just recently was ok with my shoes not matching my hand bag. Speaking of shoes, here is a giant picture of them.
I just bought these the other day and have been wearing them to work. It's not like the studs stand out a lot. The first picture was taken without the flash because the pants are satiny and they looked totally unflattering with bright white light reflecting off of them. However, the shoes were not showing up too well. I need a new camera...
