Happy Memorial Day! Though it’s fun to appreciate the three-day weekend and sales, remember that every day is Memorial Day for people who have lost loved ones fighting for what they believe in. This day can be difficult for them, so remember to show them some love today!

I’ve been taking it easy before I start working for the summer, and I keep forgetting that I actually have stuff to do. It’s been a nice mental vacation, but I need to get back into the swing of things! Here’s a look I wore to go shopping a couple days ago.

Now that it’s nicer out, I can wear different things! This tank top is a hand-me-down from my cousin, and I love it. It’s super comfy and relatively casual, but the lace at the bottom just adds a little something extra. I wore my thinner leggings since temperatures are rising, and my Ugg moccasins that I haven’t worn in forever! I always forget just how comfy they are.

I did some pretty basic makeup, including my new obsession, my Burt's Bees lip crayon, and put my hair in a braided ponytail. I also wore Katy Perry’s Meow! perfume, which is one of my favorites by her. It smells just like cotton candy! I loooooove scents, so I’d love to start writing more about them here. Let me know if there are any perfumes you want me to review! I always love an excuse to buy things :’)

foot petals' technogel tip toes!

A couple weeks ago, Influenster sent me a bunch of cool stuff for me to review, so today I’m sharing Foot Petals’ Technogel Tip Toes with you all :’) I was so excited they decided to send me these because the balls of my feet always hurt, especially when I wear heels. I decided to test these out when I was going to a frat party in 5-inch heels. I was so surprised at how good they felt immediately!

The sweet spot for these guys, which provide a ton of support for the balls of your feet, is the little space between your toes and the top of your foot. As I walked, I felt like I was getting a mini massage! When my feet slid forwards in my shoes, the balls of my feet hit into the squishiness of these gel inserts. My feet barely hurt the next morning!

My only complaint about these is that my pinky toes really hurt. I felt like all of my toes were being supported except them, which kinda sucked since they were already rubbing against the sides of my shoes. Thankfully, Foot Petals makes Pressure Pointz spot inserts that look like exactly what I need. I definitely trust them after trying these out.

The webpage also says that these can be transferred from shoe to shoe, but when I tried taking them out of my heels, they felt really sticky. I was afraid I’d rip them. I was also afraid that I wouldn’t be able to find the exact spots I liked in those shoes again.

Overall though, I’d definitely recommend these to anyone. They made a significant difference in my night out. If you have any heels or shoes that really irritate you, try these out before ditching them!

Go Clunk Yourself

Outfit of the Day, StyleKristenComment

Sweater (no longer being sold by Urban Heritage). Boots (no longer being sold at Primark). Skirt (different color).

Today's look is rather clunky. I got this black turtleneck for Christmas, which was great since I didn't have one and I was really missing one! As soon as I tried it on, I knew I needed to wear it with the denim skirt I talked about the other day. I really loved how flirty it looked! I wore stockings since it's cold as hell outside, and my Clunkster boots. I would've worn my new thigh-high boots, but they're heels, and I can't wear heels that much anymore because I have knee problems.

I had my hair in a high ponytail, which I love with turtlenecks, My jewelry was all normal, even though you can't see most of it. I wore my new lipgloss again, too. I promise a review on that is coming soon! 

I have a feeling this look is going to become a staple of mine. Guess we'll find out soon! 

Dark Side

Outfit of the Day, StyleKristenComment

Sweater (no longer being sold at dELiA*s). Leggings. Shoes (similar). Lipgloss. Sunglasses (similar).

I took a trip to the dark side today! I haven't done this in a while, and I felt like a total badass. I started with my super comfy leggings. Then, I wore my spiky sweater that I love but don't wear enough! To keep going with the black and badass-ness, I added these amazing black heels. 

My hair is in a pony because it looked super yucky today, but I think it goes really well with the rest of the look. My makeup is normal (I wish my eyes were a bit darker), with the exception of my lipstick, which is a new color I'll be reviewing soon! My jewelry is also normal, and I added a choker. 

Don't worry, the dark side will return soon, hehe. 

Move In!!!

Outfit of the Day, StyleKristenComment

Shirt (no longer being sold at Target). Tank (basic, you can get it anywhere). Leggings (similar). Converse.

Wow! Well, I have had the craziest weekend. As if moving back to college wasn't enough, work put me on for some weird hours AND I was sick. So balancing all that was really fun, and honestly, clunking fell to the side, so I'm sorry about that!

Now that I'm back at college, things will definitely be changing here. You'll be seeing some different photos and different styles, but it will probably be less, unfortunately, until I figure out exactly what I'm doing. So bear with me for a bit!

Today’s move-in look is something that's kinda girl-next-door-y. It's based around one of my favorite shirts! I got this a few years ago in Target… in the little boys’ section. This was my first gender-bendy purchase! It's very close to my heart. I like boy flannels better for so many reasons that we will go into at another time.

When I wear this shirt, I wear it with my basic tank. It makes my boobs look good hehe. Today, I wore these leggings since they’re super comfy for traveling. And they make my butt look good! It's a win-win. Usually, I wear this shirt with black Converse, but I've been feeling those white Converse vibes lately.

My jewelry was normal, as was my hair and makeup, which I did in the car, but I am not wearing in this iPhone selfie. I had already packed my camera. I've got a lot of product reviews coming your way as well. Things are gonna be a bit shaken up. Time for a roller coaster.
