OMG. saturday april 10 2011.
wonderful times.
i could go on and on about everything
but i’m just going to take an extract from my online diary via ohlife.com:
(ohlife.com is this diary thing where it emails you every night at 8 and you talk about your day :D)
some of it is personal so it skips around u_u i write really vaguely in these so i added in words, etc.
“omg today was good and bad.woke up at 8:40 to go to [club] meeting to count money from the wristband fundraiser.
mom lectured me about college as we drove to san francisco. [we] stayed in SF. [and] ate bagels & hot chocolate, chatted with [friend] as we talked about having a mini holi and his bday coming up.
[we] go back to the condo[,] mom me and the contractor go to hardware store[,] but i went to go shop.
found a $45 bestey johnson dress that was the purple/black version of the pink/white dress i tried on once! it was so perfect…nothing else was good tho[.] i wanted these mint colored dr marten creepers for $110 but i thought we’d go to AP so i didn’t. then i went back to the cafe to eat lunch and check email etc. people asked me weird stuff on formspring XD then i went back to the room and slept and complained about how long we’d take [till we could 'leave'] randomly mom says i can take the bus to union square[!!!!1!!OMFGDKFLJSDKF] i take the N to union square and sit around like a cute indie girl[,] then i speed walk from old navy to neiman marcus to angelic pretty [and] i finally find the purple star engineer boots i wanted so bad[--]buy them w/moms credit card[,] then i go to h&m in search of bigger version of the suede shirt i have….but the only size bigger is really wrinkled. then at the bus stop back i see [old classmate from 5th grade]! LOL awkward. and some hot guys listening to ‘woo boost’ …wat”
so basically my mom let me randomly take the N bus from haight street to union square. it was super fun and people were staring at me but i didn’t care because i was in a hurry! if you haven’t been to AP SF, you wouldn’t know that it’s in the most inconvenient and creepiest alley ever. you can’t even tell it’s there, from the side.
when i got to the store, miho and the other shopgirl [i forget her name] had the shoes ready for me. i was sweaty from speed walking practically 2-3 miles, but immediately i tried them o. embarassingly…i had no socks so it was awkward >_< but they knew i was gonna buy them so they let me~
if you don’t know me in person, you wouldn’t know that i have a weird phobia of feet. i HATE feet, i hate how they look. even on gorgeous models. fat feet. skinny feet. ugly nails. painted/chipped nails. i wish feet would blow up. you should see how i act when people come to my house and i take off my shoes and socks–i like hide my feet as if they’re exposed to the entire world! it’s really weird. i just hate it. i love the sandals i have but i never wear them because i hate toes ._. wattttttttt
ANYWAY. i checked out online because i had to use my mom’s credit card and she wasn’t there, so i called her and she told me the info and i just plugged it in and i was set. i didn’t bother to take any of the free cards/advertisement things at the front, so they just stuck a sticker in + the box/shoes and i was set! and i did that awkward bowing thing to them when they said bye to me– i’m pretty sure i’m not the only one who does that because i’ve seen people do it at the btssb/ap openings XD
i would say the only setback is that A. THESE RUN HUGE! i wear size 7 1/2, only because i have wide feet otherwise i’d be like a 6 1/2 or 7. and these are like for 8-8 1/2, seriously.
and B. the calf part is really thick also, unlike other lolita boots. finally, they’re also fairly tall! i thought they were shorter because i guess the other lolitas who have these are tall/have long legs? idk XD
anyway so this is how they look and i’m mad in love with them! the box is adorable! but unfortunately it’s scratched a bit in the back left side, but you can’t see it. :/ oh well!
the bottom of the box. huh. kind of funny XD
and what we’ve been all been waiting for…no? ;)
LIEK OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG <3 don’t you love them.
they are proudly standing in their glory. their legless glory. which will soon be changed.
p.s. please disregard the green string stuff in the background! it’s this elastic thing i have to use for my physical therapy for my back and jaw (looooooooong story. another time, friend!)
close ups:
(i bought them on sale, so not for that price)
heart buckle! d’aww.
inside the shoe! eeee :)
what time is it, kids? awkward leg time!
with flash
without flash!
i <3 awkward angles!
ohp! awkward top is awkward.
‘hey, sup. i’m sara and it looks like i need to pee really badly! :)’
outfit rundown:
heart sweatshirt – wildfox couture
skirt – BABY, THE STARS SHINE BRIGHT
shoes – angelic pretty!
the liz lisa socks i wore underneath! they are so fluffy and cute :)
anyway i hope you enjoyed this post and got to see a closer look at the famous star engineer boots!
and to finish off, here is a makeup look i did inspired by this girl named abbie karson and also miranda cosgrove, who is from icarly XD because her look on the new york times cover was gorgeous.
abbie karson // miranda cosgrove
she’s really popular on lookbook and i saw that her makeup is always shaped like bird feathers…idk why…like her eyeliner slants. it’s really pretty. hope you like!
i’m wearing dolly wink liquid eyeliner, regular dolly wink eyeliner for the bottom lid that is connecting it, and some dark lipstick that somehow turned red when it was actually purple…and that’s all i’m wearing XD
please leave comments, i love to read them! :D
