Day 20

So yesterday, I wore the white pants and got strawberry on them. D'oh. I got the stain out, but I had to change because I was meeting another Tieks Sister - Priti - in Cleveland for Tacos and Rum! So this is what I changed into. :) 

(Haha, I just realized you can see my phone and the jellyfish stand shadow in this picture)

So I went for this outfit. We had a blast, got a free drink by a guy at the table next to us who wanted to get a drink put on the menu, and by all rights IT SHOULD BE THERE cuz it was delicious! 

This wasn't that drink. It was one on the menu, and it was good, but it pales in comparison. 

Anyway, we had tacos, rum, drinks, and went over to Mitchell's for Ice cream. We had a blast and I made a new friend! She was amazing, awesome and fun. It had been so long since I've gone out just for myself, and met someone and hung out and chatted about everything. I had a great time and I hope we can get together again soon! 

So now on to today's OOTD and blog. :D 

Wow, I've been doing this 20 days already? Boy time flies. They say it takes 20 days to form a habit and apparently they're right, because I get up, and one of the very first things I do (aside from groan that it's morning, take my pills, roll over and wait for my second alarm to go off) is think about what I'm going to wear that day. I get dressed and hop onto my porch for pictures. This morning some guy was driving by looking at me taking pictures on my porch cuz I was posing. I stuck my tongue out at him. haha. 

Today's OOTD is casual. I'm hanging out at home, and it's going to be hot, (heat index says 110 today. Ugh.) but not too hot inside because we have AC so I can wear my jeans in peace. Jeans from Lane Bryant, shirt from Torrid, razzleberry shoes by Tieks! 

Yeah, I did the pose.

I chose razzleberry because they match Sailor Moon's bows. ^_^

The shirt is Sailor Moon!! I was OBSESSED with Sailor Moon when I was a teenager. I wanted to be like Sailor Jupiter and she was always my favorite, but good luck finding plus size shirt with her on it. haha. But this anime and show was my happy place growing up. It inspired the very first fanfiction that I ever wrote (I still have that purple notebook. Filled up the entire thing, and honestly re-reading it 15 years later, it's NOT HALF BAD! Maybe I missed my calling to be an author?) But anyway, I get my hands on anything Sailor Moon now, even as a 37 year old adult woman because I still love it. I'm not ashamed to admit I even have Sailor Moon Funko Pop! figurines. 

And yes, I made all kinds of happy noises when they did Sailor Moon Crystal for the 20 year anniversary. It follows the Manga and is SO MUCH BETTER.

The shirt is thinner than I'd normally like, and if it weren't so hot, I'd put a tank under it to hide it's thinness, but oh freaking well. 

Anyway, pictures!

{All pictures have the same backdrop: My Porch. Picture 1: Me being goofy, in the outfit as described above, with one hand on my hip, the other in a peace sign on my forehead in Sailor Moon's classic post after she transforms. Pictures 2-5 much the same, just various poses}

On of the things I loved about Sailor Moon was her nail transformation. I mean, don't we all wish nail polish was that easy!? I got these press on nails from impress online. They were 7 ish bucks. Not too bad. They are supposed to last for a week, but I am HARD on my nails (which is why I usually get acrylics) and so they last for a day or two. Now, if I take off the press on glue and use real nail glue, then they last for like, 2 weeks or so. I usually use the stickies, wait until they fall off and then peel all the sticky off and reapply with nail glue (they toss once those fall off) or I'll peel the sticky and store them until I feel like wearing that color again. They have a new kind I want to try (the 'ultra') and I just ordered some, so we'll see how I like those too. Anyway, here's the ones I put on yesterday. 

They're shimmery mermaid. Obviously I didn't use the glitter nail. I have them stored though.
