Chuck Taylor

I have always been that girl that gets really excited to get a new pair of shoes. When I got these white Converse last month it reminded me of going shopping  with my mom for school when I was in junior high and high school.  When we would go to the shoe store she would let me pick out one pair of new shoes. I remember her always pressing at the tip of the shoe when I tried it on to see if I would have any room to grow, then she would have me walk up and down the aisles to make sure my heels wouldn’t slip out the back. I’ve always loved Converse and have always had a pair in my closet throughout my life.  I decided to go with the classic low top white ones since they would go with so many outfits in my closet. You can’t go wrong with white Chuck Taylor’s! 🙂 I’ve also started quite the collection of graphic tees. I’m loving them for Summer! This New York City t-shirt is from Forever 21, and my Native style purse, and customized ripped jeans are also from Forever 21. If you’re insterested in how I distress my own jeans, check out my previous blog posts from February. The flannel I am wearing around my waist is from my husbands closet. His flannels make the perfect oversized sweatshirts for me!  Have a beautiful day everyone and thanks for following Karijane.com. PS- Half up hair buns are my jam lately. If you are wanting a quick and easy hairstyle that takes minimal time and effort, give it a try!

My little sister Breezie went to her senior prom this last weekend at it was a Great Gatsby theme.  I had a blast taking her out shopping last week at different antique and thrift stores.  We ended up buying the very first dress that she tried on from The Highway 41 Antique Emporium in Morro Bay.  We also found the perfect shoes there to match! We paid only $24 for the dress and shoes together! We had a difficult time finding the perfect headpiece so I decided to make one for her! I decided to piece together a lace headband, some pearl necklaces, a decorative white feather, and a broach that belonged to our grandma to make up her beautiful headpiece.  Since her dress was a cute and simple black one we really wanted to make her headpiece extravagant!  I am really happy with the way it turned out and I think she looked so stunning in it.  Her gold necklace, gold bracelet, and pearl/ribbon bracelet are some accessories I had that added the perfect touch. And of course, we had to get a white boa to match the headpiece.  Since Breezie has the most amazingly beautiful hair ever, we decided to style it in long pretty curls.  For her makeup, I took inspiration from the classic 1920’s look and did a deep red lip and a smokey eye.  My little sister has a heart of gold and her beauty radiates from the inside out.  I enjoyed every second of our time together 🙂 I am so proud to call her my sister and every day she brings me so much joy!  I love you Breezie Jane!
