I had a (repeatedly postponed and rescheduled) dentist appointment yesterday, and as a reward for finally going AND not having any problems I decided to take myself shopping. I also made Taylor come and meet me so he could stand around sulking while I tried on shoes.
I was looking for three things:
1. a second pair of those Keds-y shoes from H&M
2. sandals in a gold or light neutral colour
3. oversized t-shirts
The first shoes were easy since I knew where to get them, but when I bought the first pair there was only one other one left in my size so I was worried I might have missed out. Luckily they’d been moved to the back of the shoe rack on the very bottom, so no one else had scooped them up.
The reason I wanted a second pair was because I’m inspired by my friend Kristen to stud them, like she did with some white Converse. I think I might even have some studs in one of my craft boxes somewhere!
The sandals were harder to find; I think I must have looked in a billion different stores before I found what I wanted: something flat and strappy without being too reminiscent of my eighth grade science teacher, with little to no embellishments, in a pale gold or a light neutral. I had basically given up when I saw one last shoe store (that I never shop at) and lo and behold, they had exactly what I was looking for. They were pretty cheap too!
I found the t-shirts when I was looking for sandals at Urban Outfitters. They were on sale so I got a grey & and a black one (quelle surprise). They’re one size fits all and basically enormous, in a super soft fabric. Prefect for someone as slovenly as myself! I kind of want to go pick up some more but I didn’t love any of the other colours in the store :/
The best part is all the reviews on the site say these shirts run large. OH REALLY? THIS OVERSIZED T-SHIRT? IT RUNS LARGE YOU SAY? idek what is with some people.
haha i bought that shirt without trying it on and it fits me GREAT but picturing someone who is usually a small trying to wear it is ridiculous. its so huge.
Right???? Like I’m 5’9 and a large in most tops from UO and it’s like a Homer Simpson muumuu on me.
ooooh those shirts.
They’re only $19!
i hate most sandals but those are actually rly cute! i’m excited about that shirt too, as long as they have AT LEAST grey and black everything is OK.
They also had a teal green that I liked but it matched the ends of my hair too well, haha
LOL Yesterday I went shopping and bought brown sandals and a grey and black t-shirts too.
TWINSIES
Oh hell. I need embellished shoes.
I also like the sandals.
Aaaaaaaaaaand now I wanna go shoe shopping.
>:) my work here is done
