Thrift Store Lovin'

I have ALWAYS wanted a vintage tooled leather belt... but every time I looked on ebay, my usual source of fashion rarities, I couldn't make myself spend the $30-$40. I always keep my eyes peeled, and this weekend, I hit the JACK-POT! Ca-ching! I found 4, count 'em, 4!!! vintage tooled belts. I only bought 3 of that style. I love Bargain Thrift store. One of my favorite things is they have a daily markdown on merchandise, 25%, 50%, 75%, 90%. Sometimes you get super lucky and find some treasure no one else appreciated and it's not only at a thrift store but also on clearance. I also bought an extra teal belt because, well, I wanted it and at a $1 it was a steal. :o) Enjoy my finds! :o) Good condition & gorgeous scrolling - - - just like I always wanted I love the buckles! Originally, the buckles were swapped on the belts but I was drawn to the turquoise buckle so much more. <3 I also got a skirt much like the ones I've always admired in Romancing the Stone. Except, the ones there cost $25 while mine only cost $5. Yay thrift stores! As always, get your fashion on... <3 Jana Faith <3 Thrift it up ya'll!

Outfit of the Day

Here it is - - - my take on "sheer skirts". Sheer skirts are everywhere this season! Fortunately for me, I bought mine close to a year ago in a thrift store. :o) Gotta love thrift store finds!

I love the 80s

We celebrated the decade our Teacher of the Year began teaching last week. Thus, an entertaining day! First graders asked, "What's the 80s?" My brief explanation included side pony tails, neon colors, leg warmers, and bangle bracelets. For boys...well, I was stumped. Either way, I had a great time dressing up and decided to go with a more "Dynasty" kind of look than "Flashdance". :o)






Every day is your runway...
Get your fashion on

Bahahaha!

Seriously though, first graders, what a riot!

Every. Single. Day. Without. Fail. When coming in from recess, there are a minimum of 2 tattles. Usually more... either way, here is a rundown from today:

Kid in high-pitched super whiney voice: "He put my coat in POOOOOOP!"
Me in a calm non-yelling voice: "He what? I'm sorry that happened. Are you sure he did it on purpose?"
Again with the super whiney: "Yeeeesssss! He put it in POOOOP!"

By the time we get inside, the story has been told by at least 4 different children and the adult who was on duty. And then...the real comedy gold begins.

I call the darlings over who are involved and talk calmly.
"I've had several reports from students you put her coat in poop. I'd like to give you a chance to explain. What happened?"
"Well, I saw her coat in the trashcan and I took it out. And then"
"NU-UH! He put my coat in poop and then he put it on his wiener"
(looking appalled...) "I DID NOT DO THAT! I DID NOT PUT YOUR COAT ON MY WIENER. I did put it on poop. I'm sorry."

During this exchange, it was quite difficult to maintain my professional demeanor. I had to cover my face to keep from busting a gut. Ah, the life of a first grade teacher. I wish you could have seen the dramatic facial expressions and heard the exceedingly emphatic twang about "pooooop".


And now, Ways to know your teacher loves you:
If you buy her a medium shirt from Abercrombie & Fitch for Christmas and she is wracking her brain trying to figure out how to wear it and not look like a giganto pink puffle. She probably thinks you're great, especially if she's lucky to fit an extra large from Abercrombie & Fitch. Does A&F actually even make XLs? I think they might be "size-ists".

Enjoy your day. I hope you got a little laugh.

Drama Queen

Dramatic, Emphatic, Completely erratic
This is me to a "t"
Unique from the moment created
Thankful
Grateful
Tryin' not to be hateful
Can you capture it with your camera?
Psh. I'm too fast.
The moment has passed
Arms like a marionette
Legs like a spider
Bending
Theatrical expression
Each day is a show
No two in a row
Bless the Savior
for my crazy behavior
Saved me from my silly
But lets me be me <3
