Red Hur Don't Cur

Hopefully taking a trip to Sally's Beauty Supply for this hair dye! It's a dye to get your hair from dark to RED. I'm SO exciteddd! I've wanted to dye my hair red for the LONGEST time. I've had so much time to think about it, and I think I'm ready to do it! It's taken a long time to get my mom to agree to let me do it. But since this dye doesn't require pre-lightened or pre-bleached hair. Which was my main concern, and my mom's main concern. I'm not too worried about my hair frying, or falling out. Mostly because my hair is in fairly good condition because I haven't done much to it since I cut off a few inches! But I think red hair would look pretty good on me! If I'm not happy with it, I'll probably just end up dying it back black or dark brown. I'm hoping it'll turn out bright red, or at least like Ariana Grande! I've ALWAYS loved her hair! But I'm just SUPER excited about it all together! So hopefully this happens tomorrow! I'm hoping to at least BUY it tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be patient enough to wait 'til next weekend to actually dye it. Just in case anything goes wrong, I don't have to start my Senior year with like.. grotesque hair. Hehe

The mailman must love me.

Another pair of leggings came in the mail today! Thursday was my Yin Yang Leggings. Yesterday was my galaxy leggings. Today was a pair of normal sheer black tights. I plan on wearing these to the birthday party I'm going to today. Probably with my creepers. I don't plan on wearing my Yin Yang ones out before school starts. Or posting pictures of them anywhere outside of here. Mostly because I don't want to like.. SHOW EVERYONE them before school starts, so then they're not special anymore.. But I'm really excited for the rest of them to get here. But since mail doesn't go out on Sundays, I'll probably end up getting them throughout the week next week! I'm so excited for my outfit for Monday :D The one I posted yesterday. Hehe ♥ It's perfect to me. I wish I had a special necklace or ring for that outfit. But I guess it'll just be my normal unicorn necklace. 

I really can't even fathom that I start my Senior year of high school in 2 days.... That is SO bizarre to me. I have an okay schedule over all. I think on the first day I just need to find someone who will walk around with me for the first day just so I'm not a COMPLETE loner. And I want to show off my outfit*~* hehehe But finding someone to hang out with is gunna be hard because of my lack of friends in school. I'LL FIGURE IT OUT.

    New Beginnings

    This is what I plan on wearing the first day of school! Which is Monday. I just got these leggings in the mail today, and I'm SO excited about them. Ugh. I love them SO much. I'm pretty sure I'll be purchasing a few more in different patterns ♥ I've also not been able to take these shoes off of  my feet! I know I haven't posted about them since I got them until now. BUT YES they finally came in! ♥ I love them so much! They're not too overwhelming to walk in. Unless I'm walking on uneven pavement. THAT is the worst omg. It'll just take a bit of getting used to I guess! But I've had them for 3 days now, and I'm not disappointed at all! The shirt of course, I made myself! I'm wearing my pink bow (which you can't see in this picture but it's there!) and my pink heart shaped Sunglasses. I'll take better pictures of this outfit on Monday when I actually WEAR IT OUT. Hehehe I'm so excited for it ♥

    Awk pix



    Omg OUTFIT OF THE DAY WITH TIFFANY C: 
    Follow her on Tumblr : Shhitsasecret.tumblr.com

    So I spent the night at Tiffany's and it has NOT been normal in the slightest hahaha 

    Bony.





    My first ACTUAL outfit post. Weeee~* 

    Shirt - Made by Myself
    Shorts - DIY'd
    Fishnets - Second Hand (THEY WERE NEW IN THE PACKAGING SO.)
    Leopard Print Creepers - (Ebay)
    Sparrow Necklace - Second Hand
    Cameo Necklace - Gifted

    I was already dressed before I had to go out today. I ended up driving my mom and foster brother to Target to pick up a few things. Then to 5 Below where I picked up a plain black back pack for school! I plan on doing a lot of DIY to my backpack! I'll post before, during and after pictures of it! Hopefully putting patches on it, and  possibly some pins. I have a class this year that I can make pin buttons and stuff, so I can make my own!! But it feels so bizarre that I'm starting school in a few days. Erg. I got my schedule, which really made me realize I'm going back to school in a week. I guess I'm not too bummed about it, but I'm gunna miss sleeping in.

    Shoe Crazy.

    Ordered these babies today c: 

    Maxwell's

    A few days old. This was on Saturday! The day my shoes came in the mail! Yes, they finally came in! But these aren't the ones that I ordered. I sent the seller a message about the wrong shoes they sent me, and they're sending me another pair of shoes as a gift for the confusion. They said they're sending me the right ones this time. It came with a tracking number. I tracked it today, and it's about to be shipped to the US! I'm not being too impatient this time. Hahaha. I also haven't gotten any of my leggings in the mail yet. Which is pretty sad aha But not unexpected I guess. I don't expect those to start getting here 'til next week, and the week after! But that's totally fine. I'm just really excited for all of them to get here. I'm waiting for 8 packages in the mail... 8. I've gone a bit eBay crazy... Hahaha I'm gunna take better pictures of my shoes hopefully tomorrow. I was going to today, but my camera died and I didn't feel like charging it.... lazy life. ~* xx 

    wut r pantz

    Today was a successful EBAY shopping day!! My mom ordered me all of these leggings for school! I'm so excited for them all to get here. Even with my terrible impatience.. So, this means, I'm waiting for 8 packages in the mail.. All of these, my creepers, and my batteries for my Tamagotchi~* Apparently, my creepers left New Hampshire today! Not totally sure where they're going next, but I really hope they're getting here sometime next week, since this week is pretty much over. So yeah, mom told me my budget for school clothes shopping was $100. Most people would get almost nothing with that.. But since I got my leggings online, and I'm going thrifting soon, it's more than enough! And since I bought my shoes with my own money, the $100 can get me even more clothes~ So yeah, I ordered all of these today, and I'm hopefully going thrifting on Tuesday with a friend again! Looking for mostly shirts, and blouses. Maybe some hoodies and sweaters! But I've got a little over $50 for thrift shopping, and anything else I may need. I need a new foundation, powder, and blush... But depending on how much I get thrifting, will decide on my makeup shopping. But I'm really happy with how this is going so far!! (:
    THIS IS AMAZING. THANK YOU STRAW-BEAR.TUMBLR.COM <3 

    Allergy Problem

    This is the shirt I bought yesterdayyyy. One of them at least. As I was trying to take pictures with this shirt on, I kept sneezing................. My allergies are kicking my ass.. Butttt yeah. I've gotta edit the videos I did today, and post them! But  for right now, I'm watching "I Shouldn't Be Alive" with mom and dad, and this guy is at some part of Mt. Everest, and he's basically freezing to death... How lovely. lol. 

    ~

    Better pictures of the skirt and jacket I thrifted today!(:

    SUCCESS!






    It was a good Thrifting day!!! I ended up going today, because a friend texted me, and asked if I wanted to go, and I couldn't turn down the offer of course! I'm SO happy with everything I picked up today!! I'm MOST excited about the Army jacket I found at the thrift store today! Ugh such a great find! And I was considering buying one off of Ebay! I found this one for $1.99!! It was in the little boy's section, and it fits PERFECTLY. SO IN LOVE. I also found the skirt that's in the first photo! I'll take actual pictures wearing these pieces, tomorrow hopefully! But when I found the skirt, it was really like.. square? But I knew I could alter it so it would be a bit more fitted at the bottom (kind of like a bubble dress)! So, that's what I did! I made it a little tighter around the waist too. I feel like it gives it a nice shape! I'm not sure if I'm going to be doing some DIY to the jacket or not. Same with the tie dye shirt, and the sweatshirt! SPEAKING OF. This sweatshirt is in such great shape. Seriously, I always see those kinds of sweatshirts at thrift stores, and I'm like WHY DO PEOPLE GET RID OF THESE, THEY'RE SO GREAT. So comfy and warm.  I have another one JUST LIKE this one I found today! The one I already have is light blue, and the same brand as the one I found today (Hanes Her Way) and I found both of them at thrift stores! But I guess it's a good thing people donate them, because I can find them and have them for myself :3 ♥ The Maxwell's shirt that I bought today, I bought it not knowing what exactly Maxwell's is. But the friend I was with today, could tell it was a bar because of the bottle on the "crossbones"! So, I did my research, and it's a bar restaurant! There's one in the city I was born, and went to school growing up! So I thought that was pretty nice! (: I bought this shirt because I loved the look of it, and LIKE ON MY LIST I MADE HERE THE OTHER DAY. I had black with shirt shirts, Army jacket, tie dye, and sweaters! (: Which is why today was such a good find day!

    Stay Cute~


    I feel like I haven't done an outfit of the day in SO long. But it's really because I haven't gone anywhere lately, and if I do, I don't get a chance to take pictures of my outfits... AND I need a tripod that can take like.. Portrait pictures, not just landscape. That would be super helpful for outfit pictures... I could make some kind of set up so that I can take pictures the portrait way. That way I don't have to have to do THIS to all my pictures (3 in one haha) But yeahhh, this is the last OOTD that I've done. This wasn't TOO long ago, but... idk. That's part of the reason I'm ready for school to start. So I can actually get dressed and ready and wear ACTUAL outfits to school. Unlike today for example. I was supposed to go to the thrift store today, but I didn't have time to do anything, so I put on a my Spider-Man shirt and some tights, and my Docs... And my sunglasses since I wasn't wearing makeup haha Whereas, for school, I'll be wearing DECENT outfits. Picture worthy outfits I guess. haha

    Eyebrowz


    My eyebrows appreciation blog post. ♥
    Very happy with out they've been looking lately, and I did them myself. Woo~

    I'm alive lol


    I just got home from driving mom to my aunt's house and to a vast gas station with a Redbox to return a game! Mom almost never lets me drive... And I've almost had my permit for a year. I can get my license in late November, and I've had like NO practice ahaha But idk. I think I'm an OKAY driver. I've gotta work on parking, and pulling out of the driveway.

    Tick Tock Tick Tock

    I'm so impatient I swear. Ugh. I hate ordering things online because I know it's gunna take a few days to get here, and I'm just like 


    Sometimes I just sit by my window and wait for the UPS truck.... AND WHAT MAKES IT WORSE, is that it my order didn't even come with a tracking number @_@

    Week.

    Mom has the week off this week! She said she'll take me to the Thrift store to take me shopping for school, and to get me my Off Campus Lunch Pass for school!!

    Day trip



    Two pictures from today~ I went to Wet n Wild with family, and Christiannnn~~ Overall, it was a fun day! Aside from all the walking around, stepping on a cigarette (Kind of), waiting in long lines, and standing in the terrible heat.

    Ugh

    I don't understand. I've done nothing wrong to you.... What the fuck are you doing. Seriously.

    Passing out.

    Omg I'm literally about to PASS OUT while sitting at my laptop... I don't want to go to sleep because if I do, I won't be able to sleep LATER. I'm trying to force my sleep schedule to get itself together. Because it's really ridiculous right now. I miss going to bed at 2 or 3 am and just waking up at 12pm. Now, I go to sleep at 8AM and wake up at 4 or 5 PM. Which is really terrible because my day is gone by then ._.


    But I'm really tempted to just stop fighting the sleep, and knock out and sleep for a few hours. This is no fun.


    Here's a unicorn. ♥

    Pet. Peeve

    One the thing I cannot stand is being questioned and scrutinized...
    I mean, getting messages on Tumblr like.. WHAT'S YOUR FAV COLOR or something, don't bother me. But when someone's like.. questioning my life choices and decisions, it annoys me. I mean, even if I'm doing nothing wrong and I get asked a million questions, I get really overwhelmed and anxious and I feel like crying... @_@ This is an ongoing thing which is the ridiculous part. 

    Sleep Deprivation? lol

    I just may be going insane. I was downstairs about ... 2 and a half hours ago, and I tried getting out of the bathroom, and I couldn't open the door. It felt like someone was holding the door from the outside. I switched hands to pull the door open, and it opened with ease.... I'm not quite sure how that happened.


    Another thing. I'm just sitting in my room (NOT SLEEPING....) and I swear I heard the door bell ring.... But I didn't hear my dogs barking. So, I went downstairs and outside to see if maybe one of my packages got here early in the morning, but there was nothing on my porch or in the mail box.....

    It's probably the lack of sleep that's killing me right now. I'm starving though. I'll have some Ramen, and then pass out on the couch...



    Gradient


    Finally got to repaint my nails. After literally peeling my old nail polish off of my fingers while watching Breaking Bad. But yeahhh. I used some crappy nail polishes for this. I tried taking pictures, but my camera is a bitch and the lighting in my room sucks. So ya. This is what you get.

    wut is sleep?

    Literally me. Er, this is how I feel lol 
    My sleep schedule is the worst it's ever been I swear. Getting it back on track for school is probably going to be impossible... I've gotta try to get it back together. After I wrote my last post, I fell back asleep 'til about 5:44pm. Had to get up and do the dishes, then I came back upstairs to my laptop. I still feel tired, so hopefully I'll be able to get some sleep tonight when it's actually normal to sleep. Ugh

    ded.

    Ugh, I literally feel like I got NO sleep last night.. I went to bed at about 7:75AM and woke up at 12:40PM. I feel DEAD. Not to mention I feel sick -__- I don't even think I'm gunna leave my bed for the rest of the day. Can't deal with congestion....Glad my mirror is nowhere near my bed, I must look like hell ahaha 


    UGH. So, I'm waiting for two packages to come in the mail. (Okay... 3. I'll explain in a minute..) I'm waiting for my batteries for my Tamagotchi to come in, and my sister ordered me two, but separately so.. They're coming in two different packages. The third package I'm waiting for, is my CREEPERS :3  I'm so excited for them to get here ~ I ended up ordering the all black ones, and I'm just fine with that! Even though they're like.. knock offs, I DON'T EVEN CARE MAN. I just hope they don't fall apart like some people have said they do. I would be SO pissed. But yeah, they were shipped out yesterday at like.. 10 something UK time. My order didn't come with a tracking number SADLY... So I can only assume I'll either get them Saturday or Monday. I'll just have to wait. But I hope my batteries come in soon... I WANT MY TAMAGOTCHI OMG. 


    I feel like I should start posting more photos on this blog. Mostly because it's looking a little bland right now. I would take some pictures of some stuff today, but I'm feeling awful..




    This morning my mom text me asking me if I could look up water parks in state that we could go to. Honestly, I'm not too crazy about Water Parks... That means spending a bunch of money for water. Honestly, I'd rather just go to the beach or something. But mom doesn't like the beach so... Idk man. I definitely wouldn't wanna go to the water park alone (Just me and my parents..) I want to ask if I could bring a friend or Christian. Water parks are no fun unless you're with a lot of people. But seeing as how it'll pretty much just be my parents and I, that doesn't seem like much fun at all........

    Questionable



    So I've been thinking about doing something to this shirt. Maybe to make it a tad bit more "wearable" I guess. I love the way it fits, and I love the pattern of it! My only beef with this top is the sleeves. The sleeves are ridiculously huge and the cuffs are ridiculous! Nothing that can't be fixed though. Usually when I wear it I roll the sleeves up quite a bit as shown above. But idk man. I was thinking about possibly taking the sleeves off and making it kind of a tank button up. I feel like it would be so much more wearable that way. I guess I'll just keep it the way it is until I can get a good idea of what I want to do with it because I don't want to completely ruin this shirt.. AND I got it from the thrift store. Woo~

    Something New.

    Ugh, I have this terrible problem where I get tired of my hair so fast. Lately, all I've been doing to my hair is letting it be natural and putting it up in a messy bun. I've been doing this for like... a month and a half but it feels like I've been doing this for months. I've basically been wearing my hair in a bun since I cut a few inches off about 5 weeks ago. So, I'm trying to think of something different that I can to to my hair without using too much heat on it. I'm trying not to use too much heat on my hair because it's Summer time and I decided I need to let my hair breathe a bit and get a break from the straighteners and curling irons. I've been thinking about buying some extensions lately. But I don't know how I feel about that. And I definitely don't have the money to be spending right now haha I spent my last pay on shoes for school soooo. Idk. I might use my curler tonight to try something new to my hair. Because I also have to figure out how I'm gunna be wearing my hair to school too. Seeing as how school starts in about 25 days and my hair isn't gunna grow at lightning speed (sadly). But idk. I would love to have my hair back to  how I used to wear it to school almost every day (I waved it once a week). But my hair is too short to do that to, now. So it looks all crazy. I might try curls. But I don't want to look like Shirley Temple though..
    My hair is so ridiculous right now. Ugh I can't even make sense of it. I just want it to grow. That. is. all.

    BlahBlahBlah

    So I'm sitting downstairs with my mom and dad watching their shows that they've recorded but haven't been able to watch because we've recently hopped on the Breaking Bad bandwagon! It's such a good show omg. I think we're in like.. Season 3 I think! Such a good showwwww!! So I think we're gunna be watching a few more episodes after they finish watching their shows! Netflix is a gift from the gods hahaha I'm so bored right now though.. They're watching American Gypsies... I don't understand.


    My eyes are so itchy right now. I think I may be allergic to my dog's fur.. This always happens... It's pretty annoying..

    New~

    This is a blog. I'm not very interesting, but I do like to blog. I guess this blog is for spilling out thoughts and interests. Different from my Tumblr because that's really just for reblogging things I think are interesting. Here I'll be blogging more like what an ACTUAL blog is usually like. (THAT MADE NO SENSE But I think it gets a point across aha I'm going to try to keep this updated, just as much as I update my Tumblr, which means everyday. Here I'll be posting Outfit of the Day photos. I already have some from on my Tumblr! If you want to see them, click THIS. I'll be posting a bunch of nonsense babbling here as well! Nothing too interesting, but I since I don't talk too much on my Tumblr, this is really what THIS blog is for. Kind of a more personal blog, I guess. 


    But I guess since this is kind of an INTRO. I should do an INTRO post, right?


    I'm Melanie and I'm 17 years old. I'll be a Senior in High School in less than a month. I like unicorns, Hawaiian Shirts, shoes I can't afford, and altering/making clothes. I was born in New Jersey, but I currently live in North Carolina. I have a pet hamster, and 3 dogs. My favorite movie is Fight Club. I take way too many pictures of myself. 


    Here's what I look like~
