Category: Fashion Friday

So I know it sounds completely ridiculous to spend so much money on a pair of jeans…But I DID finally spend more than I have ever spent before!!!!! I must admit that at first I was hesitant, but now I wear them all the time. I wore them in this picture (of course you can’t see them, but they are very nice). Now I am definitely not saying go blow a lot of money on a pair of jeans.

I was just saying I did and they are very nice. I usually buy my pants for $20.00 or less. I found one pair for $9.00 that I wear. Now that is a bargin!

Jeans are an everyday part of life for a teenager like me. I wear them when I go to school, go out with friends, or even to chill at a friend’s house. I love my jeans. And you should too.

Skinny jeans seem to be the fashion craze for those “scene” kids (scene kids are the teens who were their hair black and their eyeliner thick and listen to music about hurting themselves and never being able to love again).

Personally I love the skinny jean. They go well with a pair of UGGs or a nice flat.

Bell bottoms from the 70’s are still hot today. Every girl has them and every girl loves them.

Straight jeans (not skinny, skinny jeans stick you your legs while these just fall to the floor at one angle) are also coming back.

BUT MOM JEANS WILL NEVER BE IN STYLE!!!!!!!

Peace out!!!

So this week I have decided to write about what I love most besides shoes, purses, and t-shirts.

I know you are wondering what could possibly be more wonderful. The answer: Jewelry!!!!!

I love to accessorize with a cute pair of earrings and a nice necklace. My favorite bracelet is the Lucky Brand Jeans bracelet. It is basically a strip of leather that says “Live In Love”. How perfect since Valentines Day is coming up. As well as a cute pair of earrings.

My favorite two pairs of the moment are heart shaped. One pair I own has a stick figure boy and girl and they say “I love you.” The other pair is just hearts a smaller pinker heart inside. I love love. I am not in love though. Sadly. *tear tear*. I AM OUT. And like the bracelet says LIVE IN LOVE!!!

I just received a Delia’s catalog in the mail and I noticed they are ready for spring. So am I. They have tons of lovely spring dresses. Now floral prints are okay… to a point. Also single colors, pastel yellows, and greens seem to be the most popular. Navy is also a big one.

The theme seems to be the styles of the past. Wide straps, baby doll pattern form. So if you are planning your spring vacation these cute spring dresses are definitely a YAY! in my book.

I am sooooo sorry for the tardiness of all of my fashion Fridays. I have been doing a lot and sometimes it skips my mind and then on Fridays I get home too late to type up anything and I just fall asleep. But I promise to be more on top of things next week.

So this week I want to talk about t-shirts.

I love the funny one liners on some shirts. Some obviously are not meant for school or at work but others are just too funny you have to laugh.

There is this slogan on the shirt

And this one:

 

 

 

You can get these and a lot of other funny ones at Cottonfactory.com. The t-shirts are $15.00. That is an amazing price!

If you have t-shirts that maybe don’t fit or you don’t like certain aspects of it, there is a book:  Generation t:  108 ways to transform a t-shirt.

They even create a wedding dress. So I give T-shirts a YAY!!!!

As the mother of any teenager will understand, getting a teen to function before noon is a nearly impossible task.

So, Fashion Fridays by Sammie will be Fashionably Late! Hopefully we’ll get her report on the latest things of interest in the fashion world up by later today.

Purses. I love all purses but the latest craze seems to be ridiculously large purses. I give it a YAY!!!!

They are an amazing accessory which can go with almost everything. Girls in my school use them as book bags, but they also use them while shopping in the city or going out with friends. I know I do. Guess seems to have the cutest. We sell them in Bakers and I want them. Very expensive, so if you are on a budget I suggest going to PAC SUN.

Big purses are also great for those summer beach days. Ahh global worming seems to be doing New Jersey some good. Cute summer purses you can get away with now in the winter. So BIG purses are a yay!

I also love clutches. OMG! Too cute. These are more classy then the big bag. They are used for nights out or a date. The clutch is for special occasions. I am sorry, when I see someone in school carrying a clutch I say to myself, “What are you carrying in there? A tampon?” seriously, think before you walk out the door.

P.S. Sorry for posting so late. I have been super busy with FCCLA. Don’t ask about that.

P.P.S. — Mom is adding her note as relayed to her by another mom — Skinnies are totally in as well. What’s a skinny? It’s a small ID/Wallet Case that’s big enough to hold ID and some cash. Very big for girls headed to college. Sammie says they’re the latest thing for girls who also go to clubs since the skinnies fit right into their jeans. The skinnies are available in a number of stores and Coach had a wide selection of colors and designs.
