Rope

Boat Rope

Lately I have been searching the world wide web for boat rope. One might ask, why would a teenage girl living no where near water need boat rope? Well rope be very versatile. You could buy an expensive sailor bracelet or belt online, or you could buy some rope and make it yourself! With a little help from youtube tutorials, I can learn how to tie cute knots and make these products!

Looks to Love

Every season Abercrombie and Fitch comes out with their 'A&F Looks'. I always love to look at them and get inspiration for fashion. Abercrombie is not my favorite store, but I do enjoy the style they go for. I would love Abercrombie if most of their items did not have huge logos on them. Abercrombie kids, Hollister, and Gilly Hicks also does a look book like this, but most of the time the model is only wearing a bathing suite (that is not an outfit). Abercrombie would be my favorite out of all their brands. Anyway, here are my six favorite outfits from the fifteen they had.

My 2012 Shopping List

A sweater with patches

Sweater: I am searching for a sweater with patches on the elbows. It can come in any shape or size, but when the perfect sweater finds me, I'll know it. It does not have to be anything expensive, just a sweater that will bring me throughout the cold winter.

Hunter Boots: Olive Green

Hunters: I got a pair for Christmas, but I was not thrilled with the color or the gloss. I figured if someone was going to spend that much money on the boots, I wanted the ones I had in mind. I and going to buy the dark olive green boots with no gloss. I cannot wait to wear these boots for the rest of my life. 

Cheetah Flats 

Cheetah Flats: I saw one of my friends wearing these in the beginning of this year. I have seen this is many style blogs (and they go great with stripes). I found a pair that looked perfect on the computer screen, but when they were actually on my feet, I did not like them as much. I am not going to bash the brand or even mention the brand. But the shoes had little to no support and were uncomfortable. I am on the hunt for the perfect cheetah flat.

My Newly Favorite Things

These are all the things that I tried and loved in the past month. I either recieved these gift for Christmas, or bought them with my own money.

Madden Girl Boots, by Steve Madden

Madden Girl Boots: I recieved these boots for Christmas and have been attached to them ever since. They are the classic riding boots I have been searching for. The red zipper adds a splash of detailing to the boot.



Conair 1 inch Curling Wand

 Conair Curling Wand: I have heard wonderful reviews on this product from various beauty gurus on youtube. I then tried it at my friends house and loved it. It gave me boucy curls that lasted the whole night. I slept on the curls and when I woke up they looked as good as the night before. This is an accomplishment for my stick straight hair. I might have burned myself a lot while using it, but it was well worth it. Luckily Santa slipped one under the tree for me.

EOS Egg, Lemon Drop

EOS Egg: I purchased one of these lip balms over the summer, but I misplaced it. So, I invested in a new one. It is a little egg shaped package that contains chapstick. I could see why the unique packaging makes it so popular. I got mine in the scent Lemon Drop, and it smells wonderful and works great too.



These are not the ones I got, but the same style

 J.Crew Thermal Pajamas: A few Days after Christmas I went into the J.Crew store. I mostly go in their to see the styles, since they are a bit out of my price range. I went to the clearance section and fell in love with a pair of pink and red thermal pants. They were not too bad of a price, so I splurged on them. I have worn them every night since, they were a great purchase.



A timeless book

 True Prep: A wonderful novel that was on my Christmas list this year. As part of my become a prep movement, I thought this book would be great help. I have yet to read it, but I look foward to. "The schools, The clothes, The cocktails, The clubs, Rehabs, Manners, What we do, What we eat, Where we go (and don't), And most importantly: What our dog really thinks".
