Hair brooch.


Red thrifted peter pan collar blouse, Black Forever 21 leather shorts, Tan Sam Edelman Valin wedges, Brown gifted DonatilaRose ASOS satchel.
--
Another aaamazing set of photos by the sweetest ever Lydia Hudgens.  And another coooolest hairstyle I've ever had on my head, ever, & makeup by Rebecca Butz.  Teamed up, Lydia and Rebecca's work - maagical. Love them.  Rebecca created this "hair brooch" out of my hair, I was so amazed once I saw the finished product.  Can't believe still it was my real hair she used..even with the bow in the last post :).
Had to share with you this recent find from local Goodwill, yes goodwill!  I was so surprised when I found it too, cutest peter pan collar (reminds me of minnie mouse a bit haha) and wanted to pair it with my black leather shorts.  Also, won this lovely ASOS satchel from DonatilaRose!  Thank you so much girl!  It practically fits everything I need.  Def going to use this next Fall for bringing my laptop around campus.
And of course, the Sam Edelman's that will never leave my feet. I am in love with them, as you can tell :).  Ah, sorry other-shoes-in-my-closet...I'm cheating on you at the moment.
--
Wanted to share with you some really exciting news! Was contacted a while back by Candy Magazine, a teen magazine in the Philippines, was asked if i could be featured in their magazine!  Eek, was so speechless when I saw the page I was on in their June issue!  Big thanks to Nettie of Clothes, hair and coffee blog for sending me a photo of the page! :)
And huuge love & thanks to the Marla, assistant lifestyle editor for Candy, for the feature!!! <3
Still am so shocked from seeing my blog in a magazine from the Philippines.  Ah, I hope one day to go back and visit, I really want to!  And hopefully visit all bloggers there too?! Also, one day I'm gna try and travel the world to hopefully meet all of you :). Would be amazing.
Seriously, I really appreciate all the support you've given me for taking my blog this far..once again, a huuuuge thank you and biiiigest hug ever (if only I can send you one through email, mail, or in any way through the internet) to all of you Beautifuls.

<3, Kathleen.
