It's a New Dawn, It's a New Day

I've realized now that the last two posts I've made both have my striped shirt and neon jellies...I swear I own more clothes than these! For some reason I just seem to be able to take photos on days I'm wearing these. To be honest, however, I had completely spaced about taking these pictures (hence the zero makeup, and yes, I really am as tired as I look).

Top- Forever21

Overalls- Goodwill

Necklace- Betsey Johnson

Shoes- Bankfashion.com 

Backpack- JCPenney 

I honestly felt like I should have been on the set of Saved By The Bell that day. Light wash denim overalls, bright accessories, a colorful backpack- it was a great throwback day. Also, you will probably be seeing this gate quite a bit more from now on since I've officially finished my 3rd week at my new college. It really is completely different living away from home, even in a dorm setting. Everything is just thrown at you all at once which is either a great way to succeed...or a great way to fail. I'm crossing my fingers for the former though.

Lastly, I need to give a huge nod to Elana from Room 334 who took these photos! She's in one of my classes and it's just fantastic to find another blogger. Since I was new to the program this year, I expecting a bit more pressure from my fellow fashion students to push myself in my dress. However, it's not uncommon to find more than half the class in tshirts and leggings...thankfully Elana breaks that pattern with me!

I'm Jelly of Your Jellies!

This is sort of like the Throwback Thursday post that I missed on Thursday (oops!), but I can't get enough of the jelly shoes! These were really big in the 90s and I remember having a pair of jelly flip flops that you couldn't get me out of until I was about 8. Now they're back! These are sold by a UK company called JuJu and they're sold in all types of stores, mostly in the UK though so when I order them (when, not if!) they will be direct from the UK! The cheapest pair I found was on BANK Fashion for about $24 (16 pounds from the UK) and they're only charging 4.99 for international shipping! Steal! 

There are two heel heights for this style. The low heel (the ones I'm getting) are called the "Maxi" and the heeled pair is called the "Babe". I'm so beyond excited. I know some people will hate these since they're SO 90s, but what do you think? I can't wait to live in them this summer with some cute frilly socks!
