BTW! Would like to thank Debbie for buying me a tripod for Christmas, which is what I’ve been using to take pictures of my lame outfits ;x Also the Hello Kitty bag that I’m so in love with and won’t stop using is a Christmas present from Phana (:

Today’s outfit is pretty lazy cause all I planned on doing was going thrifting with Thelmany. I actually don’t like people knowing that I thrift, which is pretty hypocritical since I’m writing here that I do. But not many people know I do it and I don’t like going with many people. I like going with Thelmany cause we don’t mind rummaging through piles and piles of other people’s clothes and smelling that smell of other people’s houses all mixed together. Its actually kinda weird because I’m a pretty big germaphobe, but I go through people’s used clothes… I guess my like for looking at stuff is bigger than my fear of germs, but I do bring hand sanitizer with me. Anyways, only a few of my friends and my sister know I go thrifting, but my parents don’t know. I don’t like the idea of people having the idea of me going through used stuff where I don’t know where its been, even though that idea is completely correct. I know, I don’t make sense a lot.

But yeah, Dear Daniel kept on asking me where I was going to go to hang out with my friends. I told him I was going “shopping,” but wouldn’t really specify beyond that cause like I said, I don’t really like people knowing. Dear Daniel reads my blog anyways, so he’s going to find out & technically I didn’t lie cause I did go shopping (:

The “prizes”

01 Damn straight, Mai now officially owns her first pair of designer jeans ever (: ~ I actually found them at a different thrift store when I was hanging out with my coworker&/friend, Christina. It was actually pretty lucky since they’re a size 25 (H&M makes me feel fat cause I have to wear a size 28 there), a nice wash, straight leg (I normally only wear skinnies, but mer), & only $35.
02 I actually already own a denim shirt exactly like this from H&M (except H&M’s fits better), but I really liked this one too. Its funny cause I saw this on clearance at AE last week for $20 and was pretty close to buying it, good thing I didn’t cause I got this shirt for $3.50 ;D
03 I just like big cardigans that are interesting. Its 100% cotton too (unlike all the freaking wool & acrylic stuff that we sell at work that makes me itchy ;x). All winter clothes were 50% off today so I got it for $2.50 (:

Speaking of thrifty things, remember those 7 for all mankind shorts I bought over the summer (at the thrift store with Thelmany)? I finally got off my lazy butt around to sewing it into cuffed shorts.

Before!

Sewn & ironed!

Yeah, its not really hard but I’m really proud of myself for finally doing something that I planned to do half a year ago. Whoever cut it up to begin with did a horrible job cause its uneven so the lengths are a little uneven but its not that noticeable unless you’re staring at my crotch. Now I just have to wait half a year for it to get warm enough for me to wear it . . .

Also, this is completely unrelated but I got to pick up more of my favorite white eyeliner from Lotte the other day when I went to go hang out with Dear Daniel (: Yay for VOV Auto Shining Pencil ♥♥

Yay for free samples (:
