OOTD: Beach and Bathing suit!

Okay so I didn't post an OOTD yesterday because I suck super bad, but I have 2 today!

(Also I am up to 4 followers, thank you and I love you guys, I don't feel like I'm talking to myself anymore!!)

So for the Big Fat Summer Challenge, I already did something that I wouldn't normally wear, so here is sleeveless!



Dress from Faith21 via Shop.Fatshionista and wedges from target (Friday see these wedges again in black in a DIY! I love diy.)



I tend to stay away from sleeveless things because I have big boobs, and I mean gravity isn't my best friend. I do like the silhouette this dress gives me though, but I think this might be the end of our relationship.



Also here is a close up of the print. Its a GORGEOUS dress that I think will probably be put in MY bigcartel shop in a couple of weeks.


Okay SO NOW onto the 2nd OOTD, which isn't really an outfit at all! Its my torrid bathing suit from last year! This is ALSO part of the BFSC!


Bathingsuit from torrid, and mom sandals from Blowfish. Suck it I LOVE those sandals.



So those 2 pictures are the same pretty much.

LASTLY
I hemmed the legs of my romper! I am MUCH more apt to wear it now. I actually really like it and would like something similar in black, so to target we go tomorrow.

Oh yeah. Oh YEAH!

3 followers!! Hell yes! Thanks you guys :)< 3

I spent last night shortening the legs of the romper, and I feel like it looks much better now. I'll post photos with my OOTD tonight.
I don't even remember if I mentioned the fact that I also got a pair of shorts, a lace overlay top(I love lace and mesh..)and a lace strapless bra type deal(that is under the romper)

As soon as Diego wakes up were going to go to the beach I think, but he has practice at 6 so we will see. I was going to feature this post today with the things in fashion trends that I hate right now but I am in such a good mood I don't think I can be snarky.

Things I have to do today:

Go to the post office.
Grocery shop.
Get roommates to pay utilities.
Go to Diegos tryout.
Get tons of little jumplinks from Joanns or Micheals to start chain maile for too small f21 wedges.
OOTD post.

2nd OOTD!!

Okay I am counting this as my OOTD for Monday because our sleep schedule is so messed up, it is technically the same day as it was earlier when I posted my first blog.

I didn't even wear this out yet, because I am going to hem the crap out of the legs because it is a terrible length on me, but once I hem them its what I am going to wear to Diegos football practice tomorrow. I am his manager. :)

BUT this fits in the Big Fat Summer Challenge as something that is sleeveless, and something I wouldn't normally wear, so it is tagged as such.

My "something I wouldn't normally wear" entry for the BFSC is a romper I just got from Dots today! Again I have to hem the CRAP out of the legs, because they are such an awkward length on me, and the black accessories ARE a little harsh but I wasn't sure how I should go with it to make it more "me". Pastel blue isn't really my THANG, but I liked the romper overall, and with a few alterations it could work pretty well with me. I think tomorrow I will post another version with brown accessories.



Romper is from Dots, Belt is from Torrid, Shoes are from Urban Original, Vest is from Urban Outfitters.
(Only the shoes were recent and Dots doesn't have online ordering, so thats why only they are a link)


Rompers fall under the "not what I would wear" category because I am still slightly insecure about my body. I have a tapered natural waist, thinner legs, but am all gut. (I mean, I'm fat all over, but its concentrated there ;) )



Also the black poking out at the top is this AWESOME strapless bra type thing I found at dots for 6 DOLLARS! I have huge knockers and I do not feel unsupported in this thing at all. I love it and am going back tomorrow for more.

2nd Word post!

Day 2 of successful blogging! Fuck yeah! I am using my broken screen computer because I like uploading pictures onto it better and everything, and to be honest Diegos computer is just really big and difficult for me to use because I am so used to my Mac :(


I really don't take criticism well,I need to work on that. That will also be one of my goals this week, is to take criticism better. Also this week is to start the

Big Fat Summer Challenge!

THE RULES:

* Wear shorts (NO LEGGINGS, NO TIGHTS!)
* Wear something without sleeves
* Wear something STRAPLESS
* Rock a bathing suit
* Wear a bodycon dress/outfit
* Go SPANX/shaper free (might be harder for some of us..ahem…ME)
* Rock a maxi dress or something similar
* Wear something structure-less
* Wear a short skirt/dress
* YOUR CHOICE: Something you normally wouldn’t wear/do – BE BRAVE!


it originated over at Return To Sender but I found the post on Reizende Rundungen

My personal choice will be to rock a pair of heels with shorts. I should probably buy a pair of shorts huh? I have one pair, but they are ill fitting. BOO. I also don't have a bodycon dress or anything. So I will have to substitute that with something. OH actually I do have sort of body-conny skirts. We'll see.

How do I add things to my sidebar? I'd like to add this to my sidebar so this looks less like a childish personal blog!

OOTD: Chains and Studs

First OOTD of the blog! I just wore this to laze around the house mostly. i am not super pumped about how the mesh makes the shirt under it look, it just didn't particularly photograph well haha. Both tops are from Faith21. The Top one is a mesh tank with a chain detail in a 2x (I am a biiit bigger than a 2x, clearly, but it works I think.) and the second is the sparkle tunic that I believe is still on the website, and 13 bucks. I love it but it shows ALL flaws, so I wear it on my more confident days ;).
The pants are just Z Cavarricci for Torrid capris, bought 2nd hand over on LiveJournal. The shoes are my Dollhouse Kendra wedges, that I coveted forEVER and found them on lovemyshoes.com. More about that later!



Close up of my DARLING WEDGES

The dollhouse wedges I found when looking for a pair similar to a Micheal Kors pair I saw sometime earlier this year (and of course could NOT afford) and I eventually found them on lovemyshoes.com. The reviews of lovemyshoes were really really bad, but clearly I got my shoes. I will do a review for their website if they give me a 10% coupon or something :)

Starting over.

I started this blog like, a year ago, posted 3 times, and gave up. I want so desperately to be "in" fashion, and it seems like the blogosphere is the best start.
I am going to blog AT LEAST once, with an OOTD, and something productive I have done every day for 7 days. After 7 days, if "blogging" is something I have to FORCE myself to do, I will quit keep fucking forcing myself to do it! I have difficulty writing my thoughts down but I have SO DAMN MANY I don't understand why!

I start my marketing program in the fall! I have 4 classes this semester, and then 5 next, and then I will have a marketing certificate! I am not sure what the certificate means but it is the first SOLID step towards merchandising. After another year I will have a business and marketing associates, and from there I will decide on Fashion Merchandising/Marketing or Advertising. Woo!

I made a bigcartel.com shop, and I hope it takes off a bit. I'd like to start doing more customizing again, but Diegos back so EVERYTHING is a mess. I love him more than life itself but MAN HE IS A 21 YEAR OLD CHILD. My goal is to buy another storage thing, and crack out the sewing machine. I recently got 4 new pairs of shoes (I know...I hope my mom never EVER reads this haha) and 1 pair is too small so Im going to modify them and post them for sale I think. They are the forever21 oxford wedges and they were my cheap alternative to Jeffery Cambell's line of wedge booties, also even the Acne Atacoma. All(both?) of which I covet feircely but will have to live without until I get a full time job, or Diego makes it into the NFL. ;)

To come this week:
-7 OOTDS, starting when I get dressed...today!
-Fat chick summer challenge!
-2 pairs if DIY shoes
-Ranty-Venty blog filled with "Cobleigh's Picky Fashion Don'ts"

*EDIT* Oh yeah, and I bought a romper. We will see how this works out.
