This Year...




... I started my blog, fell in love with thrift shopping, got into my first (and second and third) high school show, drank my own glass of wine, bought a lot of clothes, got over a huge crush, developed a huge crush, wrote a lot of poetry, attended five concerts, played with sparklers, watched The Rocky Horror Picture Show many times over, dressed up in glam rock attire, took a lot of standardized tests, cut my hair short, made some great playlists, dated a friend, had one teacher I really loved, failed a test, got my braces off, lost a very close friend, got asked to prom, made my own clothes for the first time, realized that I might not hate Charles Dickens, discovered some amazing music, got a perfect score on my select choir audition for next year, was named junior editor of the literary magazine, saw Rent on Broadway on its closing day, realized why I love my best friends so dearly, and found inspiration in the most unexpected of places.

Vintage sweater, PacSun jeans, Target tank, boots from someplace in London, gifted ring, random rave shades

SCHOOL IS OUT.

I really love the pullover!

What a lovely sweater. And wow, amazing list of experiences dear. Ahh I do love Rocky Horror, I swear I could watch it on loop. And Dickens is pretty amazing, although there are those works, which everyone says is fantastic, that I just don't like.
