It was my friend's birthday today, and we went to Texas Roadhouse with some of his other friends for lunch. It was nice to get out and meet some new people. He's gay (derogatory) and had us wear Western themed outfits. I looked like I sell real estate.

Shirt: Brand unknown, thrifted & dyed
Capris: 1822, my moms old pants lol
Shoes: Brand unknown, thrifted
Accessories: Dickie's belt, necklace borrowed from my mom
I tried to match with Nick's color scheme, no blazer because it's so fucking hot out. I got my usual meal: Herb crusted chicken with 2 sides of steak fries. I know, chicken at a steakhouse, I'm picky about steak. I don't get to see my friends so often because of scheduling issues, so it was nice to see them again. I don't have much to say since it was a pretty brief meal, but we had fun and it was great to get out. I didn't get pictures of his gifts, but I got him a funny Silent Hill PT sink baby plush that he liked on Etsy.

I'm writing this as of 3.16, but don't even worry about it! I went shopping with my mom today at Daiso, Micheal's, my old Goodwill, and an estate sale. My outfit was bland, but I just started my period and I couldn't be bothered today.

Shirt: Reality Fade
Skirt: Thrifted
Shoes: Thrifted (unused!) Doc Marten sandals
Jewelry: Jelly Bands from a vintage Hot Topic jewelry lot on Ebay, spike cuff probably Hot Topic ~7 years ago? Forgot where the necklace is from.
I wear these sandals 99% of the time I go out LOL they're comfy and quick to put on. It was so damn windy today!! I tied my hair into a little garlic nub 'pony tail' so it wouldn't be everywhere. My hair is at an awkward point of growing it out, and it tests my sanity daily. An ugly bob-mullet thing but I need to stay strong and leave it alone... I went to Micheals to look for ribbon, and unfortunately didn't find any. The pinks are always a very similar hue, but blue ribbon that is a true baby blue is so damn hard to find!! Everything is too teal!!! Instead, I got a nice crafting knife. I use a single unsecured utility blade to cut out stuff and it is very hard to do neatly, and I figured it would be a nice investment. After Micheal's, we were on the way to a Daiso before we got side-tracked with an estate sale. I was skeptical at first, but I found some cute things and they were having a 70% off sale! I got a cute polka dot dress and a little ceramic container thing for a few bucks. They had a lot of interesting things, and a lot of unique cultural items from Chinese, Japanese, African (I know Africa is a continent, these were behind a display and I didn't get a picture, so I'm not sure of which regions specifically), and I believe German traditions. Very interesting! They also had a lot of really nice jewelry, I saw an adorable prayer box one but it was too expensive for me. The jewelry wasn't on sale unfortunately. After that we went to Daiso, where I spent way too much money on craft supplies. I have an addiction. This Daiso is further from my home but has a lot more craft stuff than the one closest to me, but they didn't have basic toploaders in the size I needed -_- Oh well, I found plenty of other good stuff to keep me busy. Mostly nice frill trims and pearl stickers. I also found a really cute photo picket fan keychain!! I haven't decorated it yet, but I was surprised to see them. After spending Too Much at Daiso, my mom dragged me along to my old Goodwill... I used to work at Goodwill when I was 16. I don't reccomend it. My managers were pieces of shit & one was a pedo, and corporate wasn't much better. It's been a few years and these people have either died (coworker besties groupchat drama) or gotten fired, so it was peaceful! It still stinks in there though. I found a cute top for myself, a present for a friends birthday coming soon, and a cute little rosary. I found a little crown ring in the parking lot, I think it's Mardi Gras themed? Maybe it's just because it's purple, but it's cute. No picture of the Daiso haul because I forgot it in the car.
