OOTD: July 12, 2015





Yay for my first OOTD post! I have been meaning to do one of these for a while but never really had enough confidence in my outfits. Today I finally figured I had nothing to lose, so here it is! I'd love to get some feedback so leave me comments!




Top: Forever 21
Shorts: Sorority Gal Yardsale (secondhand)
Sunglasses: Forever 21
Shoes: Forever 21

If you can't tell, I love Forever 21. Their clothes are super cheap and adorable, and I'm refusing to admit that I've turned 22 so I can shop there as long as possible. I know that their clothes doesn't always last very long but I'm okay with the cheap quality on their pieces that I know will go out of fashion in a year or two anyway.

These shorts are clearly the star of this outfit though. I got them secondhand through a facebook group called Sorority Gal Yardsale, which I highly suggest to any of my readers who are or were a part of greek life. The facebook group is a place for women in greek life to buy or sell secondhand clothes to each other. It's great for formal dresses, halloween costumes, and during the spring a lot of girls do "closet cleanouts" which is where I got these shorts! I've also bought a few other pieces of clothing from this group, so keep an eye out for them. I love lightly worn secondhand clothes because it's not only cheap, but great for the environment!

Like I said, this is my first ootd post so let me know what you think! Your comments will help me determine if I should do more posts like this or not! And definitely give me some recommendations of other stores I should check out! (And make sure to like the picture of this OOTD on instagram!)

  8. I love the colors you chose! I wish I could wear Forever 21 clothes, but because I am so tall, a lot of their clothes look like midget clothes on me. Oh well! You can rock it!
