Vibrant Shades + Versatile Blog Award

Simple half summer half winter look, featuring floral shorts and a purple sweater with a ridiculously high collar but too soft and warm not to wear. Sorry I don't have much variety when it comes to shoes, but converse are honestly the easiest for me to pull on and walk around during school.
Also, thank you to Mara from I Like Your Ears and Mars from Soul Blabber for nominating me for the Versatile Blogger Award. Too lazy to write an actual post about it, but thank you very much!
And might as well say this now since I'm been too lazy (again) to write a post about this, but if you're in the mood to do some online shopping, definitely check out Mochi Beaucoup, an online site that has a bunch of  super adorable and quirky jewelry for incredibly reasonable prices! You can get 20% by typing in the code Sprinkle20MB. Easy as that!
Just one more thing: it's already April! Whoa, what... but hello summer. (:

I was browsing and ... (March Wishlist)

In love with a couple things this month, beginning with this adorable sparrow print romper (link) for only $14! And shipping is incredibly cheap on their site. It's so perfect for summer with a cute and simple belt and an adorable hat. Does that not scream summer to you?
I know I always put skirts in these wish lists, but this one (link as seen on Brown Platform), I need. The color, the material, the flowy-ness of it, the ruffles. This is just screaming for me. (More screaming, haha.)
Lastly, how adorable and unique is this knot bracelet (link as seen on Wendy's Lookbook). Some people might not like it, but I absolutely love it. (Thanks for reading;)

Come Morning Light

I received this necklace as a chictopia reward, which I'm sure many of you chictopia users have seen Shop Calico give multiple away as rewards, a while ago. Once I had my hands on this turquoise and gold spiked necklace, I realized that it would look incredible as the focal point against a simple black dress, which I don't have. So, I opted for a much more casual look with the necklace as the focal point against a sweater instead. 
(Title is from Taylor Swift's Hunger Games song. As for the actual movie, which I won't go into much detail for those of you who haven't seen it yet, I'll just say it was incredible but I wish I hadn't watched so many youtube clips of it so it was more of a surprise.)

Ruffles and Pleats

I absolutely love the blazing sun against my back and even when my dark hair seems like it's going to catch on fire from the heat, so I thought I'd wear all black and grey today to absorb as much heat as possible since my body isn't very good at keeping up a warm enough body temperature. Just kidding, okay maybe not, but hey, who doesn't like being warm? Speaking of catching fire, anyone going to see the Hunger Games movie? Well, I am, and I'm beyond excited! However, I can't go to the midnight premiere, but definitely let me know if you're going.

A Spring Garden

It's officially the season of blooming flowers, light rains on warm sunny days, basking in the sun, and for spring trends like floral shorts, light flowy tops billowing in the breeze, pastels and neutrals, to emerge, and I can hardly contain my excitement.
(Alright, enough with the outfit-lacking posts. New outfit going up Thursday.)

Trending Without Spending

1. link 2. link 3. link

I'm sure most of you are very familiar with these three very trendy pieces of clothing, that (don't worry) I am craving like crazy as well: A biker jacket (link) that reminds me an awful lot of my own jacket in this post here, with an asymmetrical zipper, shiny brass buttons along the jacket, collar, and sleeve cuff, and it's pink too, which makes the tough jacket slightly more feminine and absolutely perfect for spring. I think the website also some other biker jackets in other colors, such as black, brown, white, red, and even a fun light purple color (link)... seriously check it out. Oh my gosh, it's so pretty I want to die. =.=, oh no, it's even bringing out my asian emoticons.
Anyway, those shoes. Look familiar? They're extremely similar to Romwe's spiked loafers, which are unfortunately out of stock on their website right now. So if you're still looking for some dangerous flats, check out this link for some that are slightly less than Romwe's.
Lastly, lace shorts: my goodness, look at all that delicate detailing and beading. They would look adorable with a bright colored or pastel blazer and some nude heels. Actually, a leather jacket and some spiked flats would look pretty cool, juxtaposed against the feminine lace.
You can pick up all three at Oasap, an online store that offers some incredibly cute and trendy pieces for great prices and free world wide shipping. Sorry, if you didn't get that the first time, I said FREE world wide shipping! Hehe, don't you love it when online stores do that? I do. And if the clothing isn't exactly in your price range, definitely check out their jewelry, which always is the first place I go when I find a new online store. They have some incredible things, including a mustache necklace. (;

A Chance to Layer

This whole week's going to be rainy and gloomy; you know, just in case you were dying to know the weather here in California. But let's try to be positive: now I have a chance to attempt layering! For today, I layered with a basic top, a white vest, and a red jacket. Literally, half of my mom's closet consists of thin, no-sleeve flyaways/vests, and I'll usually wear them occasionally during the summer time. However, now I have finally found a way to incorporate them into fall/winter outfits: as layering pieces! They add colorful contrasting layers, without creating bulk.
