Possible Overhaul?

So...I've been thinking. This blog was originally supposed to focus on my business and jewelry, but now that I'm in college I don't have the time to make anything new nor do I have an oven that can be easily accessed. I did actually bring most of my materials with me, but somewhere in the midst of packing I must have misplaced my clay and so it is currently MIA. There are a few art stores around Berkeley, but they're not easy to access either. Thus I've given up on continuing my polymer clay jewelry business while I'm at college. Don't worry though, if I have time during the summer I will definitely pick up my business again.

In the meantime, I will continue to try and find time for art. Lately, I've just been randomly sketching when I have some free time. In some of my classes, I get a little bored so I also do doodle a little bit. Nothing huge for now. I did pack a small canvas with me, so maybe I'll start painting in a few weeks, probably during Thanksgiving since I won't be going back to LA or New Jersey (they're just too far and there's not enough time).

Going back to the overhaul...I think that it's probably best if I change the focus of this blog since I don't have much business going on lately. The blog will probably be turned into a more personal blog with some of my experiences at Berkeley as well as some fashion and art and I guess anything else that wanders across my mind at the time. There will be more fashion, more art, and I'll get to share with you guys some of my personal favorite styles, clothing, artists, and designers. I don't plan on changing much of the layout for now, but who knows? Bye for now!

Makemechic.com

So yesterday I happened to stumble upon makemechic.com. It is exactly what it's web address suggests. It's an online clothing store that carries chic, affordable pieces. And yes, they are legit (did some Google research)!

As the summer slowly winds down and as back-to-school (or in my case, college) shopping commences, I have been looking for a pair(s) of boots perfect for the chillier weather up in San Francisco. My thing with boots though is that I have to absolutely adore them, but they also have to be affordable. Forever21 and Wet Seal have some great boots, but I'm looking for more...and then there was makemechic.com. It has an unbelievably huge selection of boots. The only downfall is that they might not carry your size. Boots cost roughly anywhere from 20 to 30-something dollars, which is perfect for any college girl's budget.

They also have a Sale section, so definitely check that out because the shoes are super cheap there! And they're also offering free shipping on any order over $50. Yay for sales and discounts!

Here are some of my favorite boots:


1. Akemi74 Slouchy Ankle Boots Black ($20.35)
2. Reva2on Slouchy Mid-Calf Boots Ivory ($21.00)
3. Toby Studded Mid-Calf Boot Brown ($26.95)
4. Key44 Studded Over Knee High Boot Brown ($34.00)
5. Candies15 Ruched Buckled Mid-Calf Boot Pearl ($22.00)
6. Kalisa29 Studded Mid-Calf Flat Boot Brown ($25.45)

Even though all I've been talking about are boots, there are other things that they carry like accessories, tops, dresses, and they have some really cute jackets. They also have some amazing sandals! So, check out the website and have fun shopping! ^_^
