#WhatAmIDoing2K17 an #ootd

Alright, we are in full swing here. 

Graduation Fashion Show preparations are beginning and stress levels are already starting to rise. I can't say that I'm exactly ready to leave the hallways of the Design wing behind. I'll definitely miss the trips to Fabricana and walking around the Uni looking for OOTD locations - looool. There's still a couple months of craziness to go and instead of thinking about job hunting and where I might be in 3-4 months I'm going to try and focus on being in the moment. Breathe in and breathe out with Om... Stay in the moment Jessica. Savor graduation. 

Also, I'm digging my socks and shoe combination, aside from the fact that these shoes have fallen apart after 2 years of wear.

This song has been on repeat for like 2 weeks.

t-minus an #ootd

Counting the last couple days of my work contract, the days till Kate's Birthday, for school to start, for August to end and Fall to begin. Trying to savor the last of the summer nights.
Enjoy these sassy photos of me on a rooftop. I should really just invest in a camera.

New tune I'm digging. This and Frank Ocean (duh). All the Frank Ocean

Check off your days

I have a whiteboard calendar in my bedroom, uni schedule, work things, family stuff, birthdays, due dates and anything else that needs to be scheduled are written down (I can be miss.forgetful at times). I look at that board every time i'm in my bedroom, which is a lot, and several months ago I noticed that I crossed off the days with an X and something inside of me question that. The X suggested a thought like "finally, this day is over" and when I looked at my calendar mid way through the month, it was kind of sad looking because of all the X's, the crossed out days. The optimistic side of me was asking myself why don't I check off the days to suggest a thought like "today has been completed". This was a very small change that I made in my life and it was something that I shared with my friend who remembered this change I made (and reminded me of it yesterday) and told me that it had an influence in her life. Made me feel pretty darn good about myself. 

So I guess what i'm saying is, don't X cross your days off, check them off.  

Obsessed with this sweater weather

My camera was on and this was the shot and it's cool okay?

Aesthetic, am I right ladies?

Lot's of hard work happened this weekend...

A very important prezi was created

Revlon Raven Red Nail Polish - 721

This color by Revlon has seriously stuck around in my nail polish collection forever! It's a really nice cranberry red color, I have no idea why it's called Raven Red... I do well with applying 2 coats of this polish then apply a top coat to make it extra shiny. The lasting power isn't too bad, 3-5 days and then i'll notice chipping.

Whats your favorite red nail polish color?

Knotted!

Here's a little outfit I put together, just a little fancy something something. An outfit for a night out, dinner, or even for work :)

Forever 21 Blazer, Top and Heels

H&M Clutch

Talula Leggings

My makeup was inspired by Carrie Bradshaw from the Carrie Diaries, I swapped out using liquid eyeliner for a dark brown pencil eyeliner by Sephora, and placed the color under my lower lash line then smudged it (on both the top and bottom). I love the way it looks!

I usually never wear high-buns out of my house because I feel as if they look rather silly on me (mostly because I have very thin hair). But I couldn't be bothered to wash or style it this morning...lazy me! My sister seemed to agree with me that it was decent enough to wear outside of my home, and I think it looks rather cool that my ombre shows though the top of the knot.

Any questions? Have a lovely day! xx
