Random Trends

I am sorry for a sloppy post. I had a ton of work to do for a club I run at my high school and while shopping for club material, I was stopped and ending up in the thrift store. I wish I had pictures and I am really working on that guys. I actually put a virus on my memory card somehow and can't use it now. So it stinks. Totally looking to fix it as soon as I possibly can.
So at the thrift store I got a musturd yellow knit sweater, an Effiel Tower shirt, and an adorable purple purse. I love it all so much and need the laundry process to go quick enough so that I can have the sweater for Sunday.
Anyway, I might be in love with a new style and that's hard because I am on a super budget that makes it hard to love new trends. This is why I need to take more sewing lessons and find someone to teach me how to knit. I really like the idea of making most of my clothes at some point.
The trend is long sweaters. I own one and wore it for the first time today and loved it. It was fun to wear with the hint of breeziness but still having the structure and fit that I am always looking for. And a lot of people were wearing them today which really just made me fall more in love with them. If you have no idea what I am talking about, here is an example:

So I'm probably going to post a ton of pictures on the twitter account @velvetgiggles. You really should follow it like NOW because I randomaly find pictures that I want to share with the world.
I also want to point out another look that has resurfaced that I love. When I was in elementary school overalls were on the outs. I still liked them and wore than and that was that. I think that they are a cute look that makes for an easy morning. This is as long as you don't go to farm with it. Style them right and wha la.

This is a pair of denim overalls which is the style that you have to be careful with. I don't want to see anything but chic. And I think the chic comes from a black pair like these:

I'm actually totally just going to go on overall and sweater overload now because these are not super duper safe trends.
Well, it is time for judging on Under the Gunn and I have a designer that I am totally addicted to right now.

Fashion Week Schedule

This is the schedule for fashion week everyone!
It is one day away from the kick off of Fashion Week and I am super pumped. I went through all the designers featured tomorrow and got pictures for all of them. I am very excited to see these talents shown tomorrow. I really encourage you to check it out. If anyone wants me to post all of them I can. Just let me know.

A Little More Red, A Lot of Excitement

More red before Fashion Week! Who's pumped? I'm pumped. I checked out the list today and decided that I will be showing you guys 1 look from each designers most recent collection prior to this season. This way, we can all get aquantited and be able to fully enjoy fashion week.
But before that, I have some red for you guys!

I really had a lot of fun looking through all the red clothes I could find and limited myself to these. I like the variety from laces and ruffles to a basic hoodie. I believe that this is one of the most versitale colours you can find as it makes any attire look stunning. I will probably share more red after fashion week, but I am really excited to cover the shows. I just wish I was there...

RED

I really have a Taylor Swift and red obsession and there is finally an oppurtunity to do these both at once. She did a Red tour if you are not a fan. The show was great, but the incorporation of color was spectacular. There were backgrounds, instruments, and clothing all in a vibrant shade of red. Plus, who can ignore her red lips?

These are some of my favorite looks from her off all time. The color looks great and really shows power. When I have to do things that require emotional strength, red is my go to color. I can't explain the emotional impact that the color has. When the first red dress shown above swished out, it was an impact. This is what you want to achieve by wearing the color.
I think red is the easiest color out of white, black, and grey to expand to if that is your main color pallet because it matches great with all those colors. It brings that pop without being super colorful or covered in prints.

A Few Little Decorations

So I know that PB Teen is really expensice and I wanted to show you guys some more affordable choices.
These are from Walmart, Burlington, and Five Below. It's still great and looks very awesome.

This is okay, but I really like going to thrift stores and Pintrest to find ideas for rooms. I encourage you to do that. 

But I do want to see your room ideas! Tweet me pics at @velvetgiggles and make sure to follow.

Chanel Interuption

I'm sorry guys but I am in love with Chanel Couture collection! So I have to share a bunch of pictures because it is just amazing.
I am really a Chanel obsession. I think it's some of the best designs out there and even though I don't own any, but I consider it my favorite clothes.

              

PB Teen Room

Okay, I found my dream bed. Yes, I have been obsessing over home goods and furniture and decor and it's crazy. I have been focusing on Pottery Barn Teen and most of this post is from them. The prices are soooo high. Like, my furniture now was from a yard sale. These prices are just, wish. But I want it!                            
  
So this is my furniture I really want and your probably like "that's a lot of storage."
I have a LOT of stuff that has to be organized in my room. I have a ton of magazine subscriptions, I scrapbook, there's art stuff. I also have a cd problem. I really like buying cd so that's some space by itself. And then, if that's not enough, I am currently dealing with 5 borderline 6 open novels or first round drafts that I am writing. I have all my papers in boxes stacked up around my room and it is really inaccessible.
Did you see I didn't even mention make up or jewelry or clothes?
I love the bed and desk because of all the shelves you have to use. I'm a fan of going vertical with storage because it keeps the floor open and is a little less cluttered.
As for all the baskets, I was not happy with the pricing at all. I found these baskets.

Aside from the furniture I found that they had some really cool de or. I picked two lamps that had the feminine touch and then some storage and organizing pieces. They have a great selection but not all exactly what I was looking for. All of the items shown in this collage is under $100.

Aside from the baskets, everything in this post is from PB Teen.  I hope you like it and give the site a browse.
