sunday is sex and the city day

Everything is vintage/thrifted/gift/my moms 

First off can we talk how great this coat is??? I found this baby at a garage sale a whole back for SEVEN DOLLARS. The lady told me how this used to be her party jacket in the 70s and it had seenany things, and she has happy to see it go to a home that shows it even more new things. 

Ugh, I apologize for not posting a lot recently. It's because of school, school, and SCHOOL. Where do I find the time to do things I want without over-exerting myself and getting all of my responsibilities out of the way??? I could drop out, but education is way too important to me. I feel like this is a struggle that every teenager faces at least once in their life, and even though it's a pretty simple process, it seems like it will never end. How can I begin a new chapter if this one keeps going on? Last week I took my ACT (a test that decides if you're good enough to attend the college of yor dreams), and it was probably the worst experience of my academic career, but at least it's over and done with (hopefully). On the bright side I've decided that I want to major in fashion merchandising, because it has everything I love involved within the subject. I'm still not sure what to major in, but I know it will all lay itself out when I get to that point in my life. For the past few days I've realized that I don't write/type enough on this blog. I always have plenty of pretty photos, but from now on I'm going to try and write more. Now that I've decided this, I just have to keep at it and commit. You could probably tell from the last couple posts I've made, but I haven't been truly inspired by anything lately. I blame it on school, but my real problem is time management. I know how to manage my time- I just choose not to. This is another thing I need to work on...

Now I have even better news: I dyed my (part) of my hair! It was originally going to be pink, but I didn't have enough, so I went with a purple/blue-ish color, and I also put some temporary pink in. It's not what I wanted, but I still LOVE it!

So I went to the dance with some friends last night, and I made a huge mistake. The decorations were sooo cool, and some of the bratty teenagers looked really great, but the music just dragged it down. On the bright side I was the most bitchin' wallflower my school has ever seen. The crappy music reminded me of this band I've recently discovered that does covers of modern tunes and puts a vintage twist on them. Whether it's a doo-wop Miley Cyrus song or a 1920s take on that song everyone hates, but loves to sing (I'm referring to: Call Me Maybe). If there was music like this or a live band I would've like the dance a lot better, but alas it was the usual teenage pop music. But hey AT LEAST I tried.

What about you guys? What's your favorite high school dance memory?
