I Know the Sky

I know the sky better than anyone else. Why? My head is always in it. I can't concentrate anymore. Dreams fill my head and I must fulfill them. Chase them. Well, I try. Think of what you want then reach out and grab it. For me, what I want is just out of reach and I need someone to push it forward so I can at least touch it. Is it possible? I hope so. Help me.

ABOUT THE LOOK: Lace on lace? I say yes. I tucked in a lace peplum shirt into my triple buttoned, high waisted shorts that I got from Plato's closet. I added this super gorgeous lace jacket that I got from Rue 21. I wasn't to sure of putting lace on lace at first, but it turned out pretty nice. I think it's the jewelry that tied it in as well. I have a cute little peter pan collar necklace from Rue 21 and my friends earring. What do you all think about lace on lace?

BEHIND THE SCENES: My friend and photographer was with me like always, but today, my other best friend joined us in our photography journey. Her name is Heather, but I call her Chug-A-Muffin. Don't ask why, just accept it. Anyway, I just can't be serious with her around. I can hardly control myself with just Andrea. You'll be able to see both of them in the next couple of weeks because I have posts to, well... post and they are in them!

Sneak Peek

Here's the sneak peek for the next post! Yes, those are heels on a merry-go-round, a very special romper, and some brightly colored sunglasses. The rest will be posted in a day or so, so keep your eyes peeled!

FBI #1: Ebba Zingmark

FBI:
[eff-bee-i]
1. Federal Bureau of Investigation
2. Fashion Blogger Inspiration
After sending messages to my top favorite fashion bloggers, Ebba Zingmark was the first to get back to me and what a perfect FBI to start out with! I was origionally going to have a top 15 list, but I realized that many of these bloggers are working hard and don't have time to answer a lot of questionns that I needed for my top 15 chart. I most definately understand though, I mean it takes hours to take the photos then edit them, then come up with information to blog about and to keep up a site. Lucky though, I got permission to use some of Ebba's photos to share with you!

Check out Ebba's fashion blog here and read why I think she is unique and worthy of your pageviews below!

Firstly, let us begin with her general appearance; 

incredibally slender with big doe eyes and lips made for pouting... 

or smiling! She does both because she isn't
just some fashion blogger gal who always has a blank stare and gaping mouth, this girl has personality and she let's it shine through her
clothes, hair styles and facial expressions!

And although her skin may be white as snow, her hair is definately not black as coal. Her firery, jet red hair has to be one of her signatures that everyone knows her by.

The picture above was from when Ebba first became a blogger and found a concrete wall that she decided would be the perfect background for her photos. She still called her blog Ebba's Photos when she took these, aka, she was even amazing "back in the day."

                        

Something else I love about Ebba is the diversity in clothing that she wears and pulls off. She can wear a gorgeously designed dress with a jean jacket, a printed tee with a bright yellow skirt AND Ozzy glasses, and she can even style herself to look like a whimsical fairy in a crochet dress and flower headband. She decides what she wants to wear based off of her own disposition and what's trendy. Just look how each outfit is different; she jumps from style to style, while still keeping her own "Ebba essence." Check out the Film strip below to see how many different ways she can style her clothes!

You're going to want to check this girl out and keep a watch on her. With her sense of fashion, model-like pressnce and individuality, Ebba Zingmark is going to go places in whatever she sets her mind to.

Colour Blocks

I've been seening such bright colors lately it inspired me to throw on a few myself. The skirt is such a neon yellow it sometimes looks green. It's actually my sister's and a few sizes to big, so the belt is important. I got the purse for christmas and have decided I need a few more purses since I see so many in other bloggers fashion posts. Plus I only have two and one is more like a trash can that I carry everywhere with me. Lastly, the shirt. I received this shirt from one of my sponsors, OASAP. I've never ordered a shirt off the internet, but I am thrilled this one is my first! The detail and diversity is amazing on this shirt: slight bedazzlement, stripes, graphics, and even a bow! Such a lovely shirt with more on their store.

What's your favorite online store? Answer in the comment section.

Shirt: OASAP, $28

Skirt: Rue 21, $4

Red Lace

I love cheap clothes. Anything that comes for $10 or less, automatically has a place in my heart and my closet. I got this dress on sale for $4. I knew it was mine as soon as I saw it! I also just want to say that I dedicate this post to my boyfriend. I know he will see this because he googled my name when he was bored and found my blog and now has it on his phone. Don't think of it as creepy... think of it as he likes me enough to Google me:D Makes me feel special... when I think of it the second way.

I received these shoes from a giveaway and am so happy I was the winner! These shoes are incredibally comfortable and extremely versitile! I've worn them with all sorts of outfit styles ranging from rocker to bohemian. The folded down part even lifts up to make it longer. I'd been wanting boots like these for such a long time and these are the perfect pair for me. I'm not really a big online shopper, but if I was, I would shop at MIA Shoes. Check them out if you are a person with an amazing taste in shoes or are a shoe addict like me!:P
Hope you like this post! I know I loved shooting it, and sorry about my backpack and coat in the background, I'm not good enough at photoshop to remove it.
