It surprised me-In the best way possible!

I am a fashion blog luvr. The DAYBOOK

I follow many fashion blogs.
One of my favorite little ladies, is Sydney.
She's married, (i tend to follow newly wedded Mormon gals)
And she has a kick-ace blog called The Daybook.
Many of her fashion photos have gone into my "favorites" to inspire any outfits of mine in the future.
The best thing about this girl, is that she's sponsered by a whole GRIP of people.
One, i'm assuming, is THEIT.
It is a new company that makes super-cute fashionista's camera bag's.
They look like super hip handbags but serve a whole new purpose!
I'm in love to say the least.
I entered the contest (duh) and you should to!
Well, if you are a girl, somewhat like taking pictures on whatever sort of camera, and want to win :P
Good Luck to whoever enters! And remember, 
1) Go take a look at Sydney's Blog, The Daybook
2) And go check out THEIT on Facebook, THEIT

Urban Original-Cheap Super-Stylish Shoes

You WON'T believe your eyes...
Found last year in Seventeen Magazine
was my all-time favorite online store for Cheap Super-Stylish Shoes
It's basically where i will be buying all of my shoes from now on,
until im an adult with a kick-ace job to afford my love for all things trendy.
Everyone should check it out! It's called Urban Original.
Also, it is for females only unfortunately.

*f.y.i. i just updated my wishlist.
Holy Heck am i excited to get more money and buy some shews.

Yoga Sweatpants

I want more yoga sweats
They are the comfiest sweats effer.
Soft, leightweight, and flexible to the maxx.
When i saw these little sweethearts on an email from Hollister,
  i immediately moved it to my "Apparel" folder because they are a definite "must-have".
The pink ones are my favorite {of course}.


TOMS

Have you heard of TOMS?
These have been a new obsession for me for a while, and it may be because of the charitable outlook.
People sometimes do not remember that a lot of children around the world do not have shoes and they walk on ground a lot worse than ours. The fact that this guy, Tom, made this company shoes that there's still a little good left in the world. The shoes are a little pricey but what shoes aren't these days! The best part about these comfy slipper-like sandals is the good feeling you get when you remember what buying your pair has helped. Now a child in a far away place has something to keep their feet safe, warm, or clean. 
Even better, the shoes come in a bunch of different trendy styles!

My best style buddy Jose Delgado and I

The Soft & Pretty Collection from A&F

Ooh how exciting am Iiii.
Seriously, soft and pretty may be two of my favorite words when describing my ideal outfit.
Oh, who am i kidding every words concering clothes makes me {especially} giddy.
Though the two together, give me goosebumps.
Abercrombie & Fitch has the tendency of doing that to me.
The new The Soft & Pretty Collection for this Spring is so adorable.
The Cardigans and tankies in this collection are filling up my heart with the sweetness of spring!
Don't be surprised if you see me rockin a few pieces in the next few months.


i lub wellies

Or in other words, Rain Boots : )
I've wanted a pair for a while and the weather is just perfect right now.
Snow, rain. whatever the sky brings in,
Rain Boots are the perfect fit!
There is a store here at my local outdoor mall named,
"Charming Charlies" and it has some adorable butterfly rain boots.
They will be my go-to pair when i decide to go through with buying some!

YARN! Knit & Crochet

I basically have this thing for anything YARN, knit or crochet.
During the Holidays, it was hard to hold all my excitement together because etsy was all about it.
I have yet to buy something but there are a few things i would like to buy when the time comes:
Knit Cowl
 Above: This one seriously made me laugh my head off because i would never buy a cowl THAT ginormous, but i do want one smaller. The color and buttons are my kind of thing ; )
Below: I love this purse! The satin ribbon contrasts with the yarn which contrasts with the bamboo handles. Absolutely brilliant.
 Crochet Bow necklace
 Above: How cute is this!?the delicate gold chain goes perfectly with the rich color of the yarn
Below: Knit Head Wraps. These are seriously to die for. They are the new trend for head accessories.
 Below: Another knit purse

Glitter Glam

A Fabulous Finish - Chapter 4
View the Stylebook
 
 Doesn't the girl on the left look soo glamorous?I am in love with her dress. It's modest and super glam.



Mukluks

There was a time in 8th grade (2007) when i was obsessed with Mukluks!
Paris Hilton was my style icon. ha. ha. 
Anyways, i still like them!
Their Eskimo fluffiness is adorable
The only thing is, they seem useless to me unless you live somewhere like Alaska
or say, Colorado ; )
I would definitely get some in the future. Not anytime soon though.



Classy Lady

My ever so strong obsession since 2008!
What is it?
Pointed Flats
They look awesome underneath a pair of adorable jeans!
Classy yet comfortable.







Zebra Cardigan : )

Seoul, Korean Clothing
Sale Price : $ 32.51



My favorite go-to place for unique pieces

My favorite go-to place for creative fashion and designs is definately etsy!
Have you been there?
It's this rad site where cool people can set up their own little online shop and they can make or buy stuff to sell.
I would make my own if the creative part of my brain was all the time pumpin but it's not!
I just thank the lord that there are creative people i can buy from ; )
I foresee that there will be many posts by me from etsy so i recommend you go take a look!

Darling Ad from Modcloth

It's a spring trend trifecta!
Frolic in floral fashions.
Play with precious prints. Slip on 70's styles.
       Hey, cold weather cuties! Want instant garment gratification? Get a new coat now! 

First of all, i love the floral details.
Secondly the setup is vintage chic which rocks.
The setup really compliments the clothing pieces.
Lastly, the little details such as the birdcage and the cats
add a certain cozy home vibe that i'm really feelin'.

Black Suede Wedge Boots

I have a crush : )
on these Black Suede Wedge Boots:
I did a little "googling" and i found these:

DIANE VON FURSTENBERG //
MARVEL BOOTS 
$425.00 USD
Woahhhh mama. See that price? How could you not...
Finding cute outfits at a reasonable price could be a little harder than i anticipated.
And i don't think i'm going to find a pair of these at any thrift store anytime soon.
I have my work cut out for me!


I posted my first look!

Okay so it may or may not be from my Senior photo shoot, but it's all I have for now! Until I get a manageable camera... You should seriously see these people's pictures. They are high resolution and the people look like models. It's like walking into another dimension. My first thought was, "Are these people actual people?". Ahaha, don't judge me, I guess I was just a little starstruck with these amazing people and their incredible style sense. I'm extremely excited to be a part of it, and hopefully someday I will be as great as the others on LOOKBOOK! Ohh it will happen soon.

Birds of a feather

One of my bestest friends (Jose Delgado) opened my eyes to this amazing website where people from around the world can post their looks for everyone to see. I found this incredible because i love oohing and ahhing at everybody else's fashion sense!
Just recently I found this little lady (Superficial Girl S.) of whom i envy, i want to dress like her everyday! This outfit is my favorite so far, I am in love with it.

Welcome

Welcome to my new Fashion Blog!
Dresses, Cardigans, & Boots
is going to be my dedicated place to rant and rave
about petty topics such as cutesy shoes and devilish little outfits.
The inspiration came to me from this little voice inside my head saying something like,
"If you keep piling and piling up files and photos of apparel your brain might explode!"
Little left to say, Here I am on this new journey into fashion.
Are you excited? I am!
Stay tuned, to see many exciting trends and thoughts about fashion,
from the very exclusive mind of amber.
