If I Had a Blog in 2001: Back 2 School Shopping list
WASSUPPPP!?!?!?! ROFLMAO, that commercial is hilarious! Can you believe summer is already over?!! :((((( It’s never long enough, if you ask me. I mean, I only got to see Legally Blonde in the movie theatre 3 times this summer! I wish there were some way I could watch it, or at least, clips of it, on repeat, any time, anywhere I wanted. Like, something I could just do…like…at my demand? I sound like a science fiction writer right now, LOL!!!
Well, I don’t have much time - my mom needs me to get off AOL so she can use the phone and I want to go chillax before tonight’s episode of AMNTM and watch TRL (I’m really hoping Carson plays SUM41’s Fat Lip…these guys are the next Beastie Boys, I’m sure of it!), so I’ll just jump right in!
IT’S SEN10R YEAR, BABY!!! That means it’s the last Homecoming, the last Prom, and the last time you have to see any of these losers you go to school with…assuming you’re not doing a victory lap next year. I’m looking at you, Chad from Mrs. Jones’ class!!! So we’ve gotta go big with back2skool this year, which is why I’m sharing all the super cute things I my mom bought me at the mall to go with my Theatre letter jacket. I’m pretty sure I’m gonna win “Most Fashionable” in the yearbook this year! That’s hot.
CLOTHES
Nothing says “I’m still a minor” like a leather mini skirt! I’m so excited to wear my gold pleather mini skirt this year when I drop of the morning attendance sheet! This, paired with my Sam & Libby kitten heels are gonna look so grown up and VERY serious! This green one is another great option. And, bonus: you can wear it as part of your Halloween costume this year when you go as sexy Shrek!
Obvi we have to include denim on our back to school checklist. Like, are you even a teenager if you don’t own at least 3 pairs of jeans your parents can’t tell apart???! I’ve been doing Atkins all summer so I can wear the coolest new low-rise jeans. And how forking cute is this flared denim jumpsuit?!! It’s like Marcia Brady and a house painter had a baby, and that baby was me! I am also obsessed with this cream pair. These are unique low rise jeans, but…they’re straight leg, which is SO incredibly gross and I can’t believe anyone would ever wear these! Straight leg jeans are for construction workers and Cheesecake Factory waiters! Like, boot cut is so timeless and will definitely be in style forever so who cares if the jeans cost $200, I WILL wear them until I’m 80 years old, ya know?!?!
Nothing says “fall” to me quite like corduroy! Probably cus I fantasize about what it’s like to be under 80 degrees in October, but IDC. I’m ready to do something a little out of the cord-inary! These shorts will probably get me in trouble for a dress code violation (again), but it’s the only way I can pull off this trend without suffering from heat stroke! And I know these high rise corduroys look like your mom’s jeans - mega embarrassing! - but they’re such a pretty color AND FLARED! Maybe if you wear a sky top or even a cute handkerchief dress over them like Ashlee Simpson it will be cute?! Ugh, I just don’t get why anyone would wear pants up to their belly button. Sounds so uncomfortable. Does NOT loves it.
Ever since I saw Josie & The Pussycats, I’m obsessed with lingerie-inspired camis! It’s very Victoria’s Secret, too! SOOOOooOOOoo swoonworthy! This cami will go with everything in my closet, y’all! But since my school’s dress code (which is totally fair and doesn’t target underage girls for being overly sexualized in a way distracting to only BOYS’ education) doesn’t allow exposed spaghetti straps, I think this Juicy hoodie will go really well over it. My mom won’t let me get the pants ‘cus she doesn’t want it to say “Juicy” on my butt, which I don’t really understand, but I’ll take what I can get!
SUPPLIES
I’m not really into backpacks, as I’m sure you know if you’ve ever seen me in the hallways. Sorry, but Jansport doesn’t really go with my outfits. Or excellent taste. But I think this pastel backpack is a good option, if you have to go the backpack route. It’s pastel and you can add fun sequined patches to it! I feel like it’s something Elle Woods would take to Harvard, or maybe Jody in Center Stage would keep her pointe shoes in!!! But since I’m more of a tote girl, I’d probably go for this Powerpuff girls one. But let’s be honest: I never read my textbooks, so I’ll probably just leave them in my locker and go home empty-handed, making this furry purse the perfect option! Or maybe this sequin Fendi-esuqe baguette. And just like that, you’re Carrie Bradshaw!
Maybe it’s because I’m SUCH a great actress, but I’ve never really had to use a planner. I can keep all my homework assignments memorized in my head. But I’m willing to give it a try just so I can use this fun planner (that’s fully customizable, btw). So is this pencil holder bag, which I’m probably more likely to use as a makeup bag, because…well…I’m me.
ACCESSORIES
I bought some sunglasses with the rhinestones on the lens like they had in the new Charlie’s Angels movie, but I lost them in the ocean over spring break when we stayed at the Atlantis resort (I was hoping to run into Mary-Kate & Ashley, but it didn’t happen. How good is “So Little Time,” y’all?!?!), so I replaced them with these which are super fun and kind of remind me of something Eve would wear?!!?! I just love that song she did with Gwen Stefani. Does anyone NOT love Gwen Stefani!?!?! I really doubt it. LOL, see what I did there?!
And last but definitely not least, I refreshed some of my makeup and grooming products. After breaking my 4th flat iron in 7 years, I’m excited to tell you I just got my first CHI!!!!! My mom told me I can’t leave it plugged in when I go to school anymore, otherwise my next one is coming out of my allowance! Lame. This one is so cute because it’s fully bedazzled!!! It’s so weird to me that adults don’t change their nail polish every night to match their outfit the next day like I do. I don’t get why they always say things like “I just don’t have time for stuff like that.” It literally takes two seconds, hello!?! Whatever. They’ve obviously given up on themselves, but not me! I’m excited to add this Hard Candy nail polish to my weekly rotation. It’s cool because it’s like a mood ring, which means it will match ANYTHING I want to wear. I always spritz a little of my Victoria’s Secret Heavenly perfume before I leave the house because body odor doesn’t go with any outfit, y’all. I mean, after all, how am I gonna get into Harvard Law School if I don’t smell like a walking felony!?!
Hope that helps those of you who don’t have any style or sense of fashion before we walk through that metal detector for the first day back at school for the last time! Okay, my mom is really yelling at me now - G2G!!! L8R! LYLAS!!!!! LMFAO!!!!
