“Women dress alike all over the world: they dress to be annoying to other women”


I feel as if this quote is speaking directly to me. Everywhere I went yesterday I felt like people, specifically people my age, are trying to aggravate me with all the heavy makeup, jeans that show their hipbones, spider mascara and "I'm a lot better than you" persona. I feel like these people find me where ever I go. Any who, I have become entrenched in fashion lately. Like it took over my being. I always have one addiction, up until now it was makeup. Now I am into nice clothes, shoes, purses, and accessories? What have I come to. And when I think about it, when I get into something... I go full force and want the most expensive, and nicest thing out on the market. Is it a curse, or something that motivates me to save my money and get a job? The answer is both, but I don't think I will be buying myself a Chanel jumbo flap black caviar handbag with silver hardware anytime soon. 
     
     My good will today though the distractions with, quite frankly some of the weirdest people I have ever seen in my life, I managed to go to the Lacoste store to get a pink polo, since I didn't have one. I thought it would be good for summer, and I have been beginning to like the preppy 'Blair Waldorf' look.

     
         I like the way that they wrap the polo, showing that you know you are buying something 
         nice and worth your money.


            Tell me that the Lacoste alligator doesn't look like it is smiling and quite a happy little 
            thing? :)


       That's what the Polo looks like. Its a medium semi vibrant pink color.


       Signification that the polo you are wearing is most definitely Lacoste.


     I don't really understand what the significance of the "4" in the upper left hand corner is 
     for... at all. But I noticed at the Lacoste store that almost all of the Polo's are designed in 
     France and made in El Salvador. Just and observation.


     Since it is after Christmas, crazy sales are going on and all of the Polo's were 30% off. So 
     instead of 89$ they were 67$. Pretty good deal I think.


     I think that considering that this was a women's size, that this polo is pretty huge for a 
     small. Definitely need to get an extra small next time I get one.


      I got this pretty headband at Urban Outfitters, and thought it would look nice against blond 
      hair.

 



     I finally found a pair of feather earrings that I actually kind of like, they are white and a 
     natural brownish kind of color with a Crystal. They looked really nice with when I put my 
     hair up.





     Not today, but on Tuesday I went to Banana Republic because they were having pretty 
     good deals, and I saw in the "new arrivals" section this beauty. A Gardenia Pink Trench 
     coat. The front of the coat doesn't look like a traditional trench coat its a little more "straight" 
     if that makes sense. It look quite lovely on.


     I love the little chain that nicer designer brands put on blazers and trench coats. Very nice 
     touch.


     I got this "sweater" for Christmas. I told my parents I wanted a Ralph Lauren polo shirt with 
     a "Big horse" on it (Singular). But My parents got me a sweater with "Big horses" (plural) on 
     it. Not a huge deal, I actually kind of like it. I don't think I have ever seen someone, where i 
     live at least, wearing something like this.


     From the Sport line too, evidently. 


     I have really been liking preppy clothes lately, as evident. I guess the prep factor of where I 
     live is finally starting to get into my blood stream. Scary thought, but I hate dressing like 
     everyone else so it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Hope you all had a happy 
     holidays, and if I don't get anything from the mall today, A Happy New Year!!

Salut! An introduction to.. moi.

Salut! Ca va? Alors... Je m'appelle Megan et je suis Juste une moyenne fille. Rien d'extraordinaire. mais je suis à un diamant brut. J'ai quinze ans, mais including juge-moi jusqu'à ce que vous me connaissez ;)

Now the English :) My name is Megan and I am just an average girl with a few exceptions. Nothing too special, but I think I am a diamond in the rough. As much of a contradiction that is!  I am fifteen years old but don't judge me on my age until you get to know me a little bit better ;)

     Well This blog serves the purpose of a fashion and personal style blog. It might include some personal things to make me feel more personable. To start off I am going to be completely honest about everything I say and post. So here it goes with the honesty. I am 5'9 and from Ohio. I am very fair and Blonde. I have blue eyes, and I'm not the skinniest girl on the block. I'm not like most girls at my school, I am curvier and heavier than them. I wish I was like them... but I'm not. I am pear shaped and very self conscious. I have never had a boyfriend.. but I'm not in a rush. I used to be really heavy, and the summer of 7th grade I lost 80 pounds. I will tell you I didn't lose it the healthy way. I was anorexic. And the summer of 9th grade I gained about 10-15 pounds back.. lost it all again during the school year. Gained it back this summer. And now I have lost it all again. Needless to say that I am on a roller coaster ride with my weight. I have never felt comfortable about my body, never. Guys in middle school picked on me because I was heavy. It was the worst most degrading experience of my life. I finally changed that but sometimes I feel the same way I did when they were picking on me. I have body dismorphia. 
    Onto the present. I have just recently gotten into the fashion scene. I used to dread shopping just a couple months ago. Absolutely dread it. Like I would rather have my teeth pulled. I don't know what happened in my brain.. but now I view it as an outlet. I really do enjoy it, and I love it. When I was younger I wanted to be a fashion designer.. and now that I am older I am considering going into the fashion industry along with many other young people.
      So now onto more fun matters! To get a grip on what to expect I may as well tell you my sizes.. right? On top I am about a 4. On bottom I am about a 6/8. My shoe size fluctuates between a 8 1/2-9. My hips are very, very full ( I am just growing into my body!) and I have a pretty average waist. 
      Did I mention I am a vegan? Well I am. I am 100% cruelty free. I don't eat anything that comes from an animal, is tested on an animal, or is an animal...
   I look forward to sharing my life with you all! I can't wait!

    - à la prochaine
      (P.S. I am learning french.. and know the basic language!)

                                                                          C'est Moi :P
