didn't have time to take decent pictures today so here's a quick one from ipod touch. i like ann arbor's annual art fair for only one reason: urban outfitters' sale. every year, they have a lot of their clothes on sale for $5-$15. i never buy their clothes full price because it's really not worth it for the quality and price...but $5 for a skirt or dress? i'm sold. this year i got this skirt and a knit dress for the fall/winter. i usually don't buy clothes in the orange palette because it doesn't suit my skin tone. however, after trying on this skirt, i decided that a burnt orange like this 'terra cotta' color is okay. :) besides the sale, i really dislike the art fair...esp how all the main streets on campus are blocked off and  expensive parking fee. blech. 

i am not a hat person and this is probably the only hat i have (actually, i lied. i bought one years ago but i never wore it in public so it doesn't count). this one from h&m is a nice one for the summer - goes well with any outfit - especially white tee + denim shorts + small crossbody bag. 

Sequined collar

I love this tee. I got it two summers ago at the American Eagle outlet for $3 something. It can be dressed up or down, perfect for the day and (or) night! I really love sparkly things and tend to gravitate towards them in the stores. *ahhh! sparkles...my sparkles* Anyway, I also adore these shorts - got them last summer for a trip I was taking up north. I tried them on at Forever 21 with a white tank and fell in love with the color combination (so summery!) and the bow tie belt that came with these shorts. The belt can be also used in other outfits so I definitely got my money's worth for these.

Tee: American Eagle

i was so tired from working last night that i couldn't think of any good outfit for the next day. maybe i need to plan two days ahead of time. anyway, at 1 am, all i could think about was that i need to wear something comfortable on my feet that doesn't give me blisters. the $9.95 jeans from h&m fits surprisingly well. now only if i am 2 inches taller...
