March 6th, 2012: A Friend To A Friend

Red cardigan (Sears), white shirt (Wet Seal), black and white checkered skirt (Goodwill), black tights (Wal*Mart), American Eagle flats, gold chain necklace (Goodwill)

I went shopping with a few friends a while back at Goodwill and I told myself I was only going to buy a few things.  A few things turned into 3 skirts and a sweater, which adds up, believe me.  While we were shopping, I noticed that the skirt that I had bought in this picture looked exactly as the one that my friend had on.  So, I call it a friend to friend look.  It's okay to steal looks, honestly, people.  I feel flattered when someone steals a look.  It's not a disgrace, don't look down upon someone for doing either.  
Heck, I used to admire a girl in my sophomore class (which by the way, I owe ALL of my fashion sense to her.  Without her, I would not who I am with clothes today).  She always was dressed very tastefully.  She wasn't fashionable in no sense, but everything she wore was with taste.  So, I tried to "copy" her style a bit.  I began to notice things a lot better, and a new Makayla been evolved.  So, you see, I still am who I am, I just needed a little nudge from another person to do so.  
Copying a look is not a big deal.  Copying a lifestyle, now that is a whole other story. 

"Every pattern begins with one thin line, then comes to life with each stroke, becoming more and more complex as the design takes shape.  Life is sorta like a dress pattern.  It can start simply, but suddenly become hopelessly complicated."- Jane Quinby (Jane By Design)
