Stranger Ft. Leibster Award Tag



Hey there, you might not recognize this stranger, but this is my blog, and I've been away for a few weeks (by few I mean 3). Let me catch you up on a few things. 

So, my mind is practically fried, and then some. My head has been in the books and I've been taking orders for garments. I've also been working on some special projects for the blog that you'll be seeing soon. I still have even more exams to prepare for but I wanted to squeeze a post in. 

I was nominated by my awesome and gorgeous new blogger friend Sophia, also known as St Style for the Leibster Award Tag. Lets get in to it, shall we?

Rules:
#1 Write the rules...
#2 Link the people who nominated you...
#3 List 11 Facts about yourself or just skip to #4...
#4 Answer the 11 questions given by the people who nominated you...
#5 List your 11 questions...
#6 Nominate 11 blogs you think deserve the recognition...
#7 Notify the people you nominated and give them the link to your post!

*I'm choosing to answer Sophia's questions.

#1 How would you explain your style?
    - I would say it depends on my mood, one day I want to be a minimalist, and the next a bohemian flower child. I love mixing it up and not keeping it to one specific style.

#2 Favourite singers?
    - Its extremely difficult to choose just one but my Soundcloud has almost everything I listen too.

#3 Go to hair style?
    - Down and curled (70% of the time), down and straight, half-up half- down, or braided pigtails.

#4 Favourite designer?
    - I absolutely LOVE Dom (from project runway), Helen Castillo (also from project runway), Tieler James, Q2HAN, and many others that aren't coming to mind right now.

#5 Vine or Youtube?
    -Youtube all the way.

#6 Any savvy shopping tips for saving money?
     -Thrifting is a must, I love finding vintage or just cool, out of the ordinary pieces. Plus the deals are great. Also, always shop sales (everything usually goes on sale) unless you're splurging. 

#7 Current favourite movie?
     - The DUFF & In Time.

#8 Where do you draw your inspiration from?
     - Street fashion, blogs, youtube, & the internet.

#9 Cupcakes or Cake?
    - Both.

#10 Favourite school year and why?
     -8th grade & freshman year (so far).

#11 Best fashion item you like to shop for?
     - Basics, you can always style them up or down and they can always make an outfit. 

My Questions:
1. Favorite bloggers?
2. Where do you find inspiration?
3. How did you come up with your blog name?
4. Sneakers or sandals?
5. Why do you love fashion (or what you blog about)?
6. Any "hidden" talents? 
7. Do you have a signature outfit (if so what?)
8. Do you like to read (if so, any favorite books?)
9. Spirit animal?
10. Dream job?
11. Who are your top Youtubers?

Bloggers I tag: 
I think this is the longest post I've ever written, but I hope you got to learn a bit more about me! Take care xx

ESCAPADE






Denim Jacket - Arizona | Halter Top - Foreign Intentions | Shorts - Foreign Intentions | Oxfords - Nordstrom 

You know I heard today, if you shake your phone five times it'll give you 5% extra battery. Me of course not thinking and knowing I would look stupid, did it anyways. But alas, APRIL FOOLS! I have to admit my friend got me good at my low point. 

But this post of course doesn't have any tricks up it's sleeve this year. This shoot we had for some reason reminded me of the desert, I think it was the white sand and spots of greenery. Anyhow, I am completely and utterly in love with these pictures and outfit. The jacket is something I've had for ages, but I can always count on it to pull together an outfit. Now as for these shorts, they're definitely becoming one of my staple pieces. It has comfort, a draw-sting, pleats, it goes with everything, AND it has pockets (my one true love...besides stripes). I'm definitely going to be wearing them as much as possible. 

Its good to be back in the swing of things, even though I'm missing those gorgeous blue waves. Keep your eyes peeled for next week's post! Take care xx
