Who Loves What?

My best friend and I are still the only people who read this, and that's okay. But I'd like to get into the habit of making regular posts, and having a set schedule, so back by my own popular demand, hah.

Megan Loves... (April 12-18)

• New phones! Jonathan bought a new Blackberry, and gave me his old one! :] Yes, it's an older Blackberry, but it's still a way more advanced phone than I've ever had before. lol.
• Online Shopping. Okay, so I spent some money on Forever 21's website on random jewelry. I had a super busy weekend at work, and I decided to treat myself to something I never spend money on. And I really feel like adding some more personalized accessories will really give my outfits the kick they need. I can't wait for it all to arrive and to show you! Ah!
• Muse. I've always liked this band, but I'm entering obsessed mode almost. I'm currently listening to youtube videos of their Coachella performance. Oh to have been there! You girls that got to go are soo lucky.
• Rain. NOT! It's freakin cold now because it rained aalllll weekend. But I think tomorrow will be sunny and warm again. So, that's what I really love.. looking forward to better weather.
• The new Hanson music video. The song is called Thinkin 'Bout Somethin' and it is seriously amazing. The song is great, and the video makes me smile throughout the whole thing. I'm not kidding when I say they are my favorite band of all time. Ahhh.
• The returns of Gossip Girl and Glee!! Ahhh! I have something to look forward to during the week, since apparently Weeds doesn't come back until August. :(

Well, there you have it. The things that I love as of late. Now, to check the weather for tomorrow, and plan some clothes accordingly. Have a great night!

Weekend Preview...

I've been looking for a denim shirt for awhile now, and was hoping to just miraculously find one at a thrift store or something, maybe. But then on a trip to Walmart this morning for necessities, I stumbled upon this one, and it was on sale! Bingo! You should know by now that I don't care about the name on the tag, both the top and my leggings are from the Miley Cyrus Walmart collection, and hey.. they're cheap and cute. You can't beat that dude. I love it.

Not including my shoes, this outfit is under 20 bucks. Purse and all. Weekend Preview? Yes, I believe I will definitely be wearing some version of this outfit all weekend. Will it be washed? I don't know, dude. I'm not a fortune teller. But I do know you will most likely see this shirt again and again. Let's see how many ways Megan can style it up! I obviously took the easy route for the first time, I wanted to ease into my first denim shirt, and I thought how lovely to pair with some dark jeggings, get the denim on denim feel everyone's been talking about. What do you think?

Tank Top- Unknown, from Ross/Denim Shirt- Miley Cyrus, from Walmart $10!/Jeggings- Miley Cyrus, from Walmart $3!/Shoes TOMS/Purse- From Goodwill $4!/Belt- From Goodwill $1!

Oh, I wanted to include this close up of my hilariously worn-out and gross TOMS. When I love a pair of shoes, I really really love them. I can't help it. Sure, I could buy a new pair, but I will probably wear these until they refuse to even stay on my feet anymore. It's just what I do. Oh, and that stain is most definitely hair dye. Hah.

So anyway, it's Friday, I have to work all weekend, as usual. But it's not so bad. The boyfriend and I are enjoying some Corona, and just placed an order for Domino's to bring us some pizza. I love that tracker. Amazing technology right there.

So, with that, I bid you farewell. Have a beautiful weekend!!

Neutral in Spring

This day started off really chilly, so I had been a bit worried about being able to get outside for some pictures without freezing to death. Luckily it's warmed up to a beautiful 66 degrees. haha. That's normally still too cold for me, but the wind finally died down, and there are zero clouds to block any sunshine. So I'm definitely loving it. :]
This outfit is a bit of a tribute to neutrals, and some of the trends of the season I've been seeing. I found these high-waisted trousers at Goodwill and snagged them up. I had been dreaming of finding the perfect pair, and I think these are it. Flat front, pockets, tapered leg, and the right weight of fabric. I love them!


This top might end up being my favorite thing to wear this summer. Although, it's not really a shirt! I tricked you. It's a dress. But it's just a little too body-con for me to wear that way. So for now, it functions as a super cute tank top. I just love the open back with the bow details. Ahh.

Dress, worn as top- Forever 21/Pants- Ann Taylor via Goodwill $4!/Shoes- Forever 21 via TJ Maxx (mom's)/Belt- Mom's/Bracelet- Goodwill $1

And then, of course... the shoes. They are my mother's, but I confiscated them for the purpose of this outfit. They're amazing, huh? I hardly ever wear anything that's not flats or tennis shoes of some kind. I've always been a little self conscious of my height, but hey.. why not wear shoes to make me over 6 feet tall? Right? Most girls try to make themselves look taller, but I'm still trying to be comfortable with the fact that I am. And because I never wear heels, wedges, anything, I've been having a heck of a time walking around normally in these babies. haha. But I guess practice makes perfect.

Anyway, finish this all off with a bracelet from Goodwill, and a belt that's also my mom's, and this may be the cheapest outfit, ever. hah. Okay, maybe not really.. but it's probably pretty dang close.

I have to gush for a minute about how much I really love these pictures. Thank you so much, Jonathan. It's our day off together and he doesn't think I'm crazy for wanting to spend it getting all dolled up and taking a bunch of pictures of me for the purpose of doing something as silly and frivolous as a style blog. haha. His support throughout this beginning process has been amazing. :]

Anyway, I'm off to enjoy my day with junk food, writing, and who knows what else. I hope you all have the same beautiful weather to bask in!

Mmm, Cheesy Grease-burgers.

Vest, Top- Ross/Jeans- Hydraulic (also Ross)/Belt- Goodwill $1/Shoes- Toms/Necklace- Christmas Gift from Jonathan

Easy-Breezy&Simple has been the description for my wardrobe as of late, I apologize for the unintended hiatus, but (here come the excuses!) my allergies have been on the WAR PATH, the weather has been so up and down, and honestly, I've just been consumed with other things. Those other things may be, but are not limited to: The Twilight Saga (including Midnight Sun. Swoon), beginning my very own fiction novel (more info in the future, I'm sure), and just plain laziness. Hey, I'm human.

I also wanted to point out that although the sky is blue, and the sun is bright, I was FREEZING during these photos. haha. I just don't understand how it's over 80 degrees from noon to 6, and then it's in the forties! What?

Oh! Uhmm, outfit? Okay. It's pretty simple.. I had a little bit of layering action going on, wearing my new favorite jeans. And of course TOMS, best shoes ever made. hah. I also decided to blog-debut the topknot that you've seen around on other gals. I've been wearing it to work, with and without bangs, in lieu of a plain ponytail. Also, I'm in love love love with this belt. $1?! Yes ma'am. Who doesn't love some Goodwill action? I have some other great finds I'll be sharing with you very soon. I need to get a regular thrifting day into action.

My title? Oh, my uncle always thought he was very clever with his term of "cheesy grease-burgers" referring to fast food meals. And even though I would politely laugh, and think it was just mostly corny, that has stuck in my mind all of my life. So after finishing one from Wendy's, I thought it would be appropriate. I really shouldn't eat so much fast food. I feel so bad about it, especially after watching that factory farming documentary last night. Eesh. Cooking is just not a possibility right now. Is there any healthy option when you're not able to use a kitchen? I'd really like to know!

Like Living in the Desert..

"Hero Shot"

Jonathan told me to do some high kicks, hilarity ensued.Until he finally got the picture of me "kicking the tree" haha

Top- Gift from my friend's mom. $Free!/Skirt- Ross $6!/Tights- Target $7/Shoes- Wanted via Ross $10

So, this is, in fact, my attempt at stripes and floral. I really liked it, judging by the look I got from Jonathan when he first saw me, I don't think he was quite as into it. haha. But the amazing man that he is, he still agreed to take my pictures for me. :] Thanks babe. Also, the first time I wore my hair like this to work, my friend Jacobi said "That hairstyle is.. interesting. Like, it's not something you would expect." lol. I don't know what that means, but thanks girl. I like to keep ya on your toes. It just reminds me that not everyone is always going to like everything I do, but that I do, and wear, and style things for myself, and no one else. Yay!

In Texas lately it has seriously been like living in the desert. The days are getting hot, but as soon as the sun starts to go down, it's freezing again. I don't know what's up, but it's getting annoying. Getting dressed has become a difficult task. This outfit was perfect for the daytime weather, and then a little inappropriate once the temperature dropped. Oops. hah. Oh well.

We talked about investing in some good cameras, also. Right now we're just using an Olympus point and shoot of some kind, it's actually my mom's. It's a good camera, but we could use better. So hopefully soon, if you can live through grainy, not quite as good pictures, then there will be much better ones in the future!! :] If you have any suggestions, pointers, etc, then feel free to send them my way.

These pictures are also from last week sometime. I've been living in the Edward and Bella hole. I just finished New Moon last night. I know, I'm such a sell-out. haha. I would even consider getting a Team Edward t-shirt. I read through New Moon so fast because I wanted to get to the part where Edward comes back. haha. It's not that I don't like Jacob, but I know what kind of relationship they have, I've had one of those. And I knew Edward hadn't given up on her, so I was just anxious to get them together again. haha. Wow, I can't believe after all this time of hating on the Twilight saga so much, I've become so consumed. And it's really not that Stephanie Meyer is that great of an author, but she definitely came up with one amazing story. So, kudos to her. I'm off to write my own novel now!! hahaha.

Surprise!

Top-L.E.I. via Walmart $5!/Capris- From Ross, not sure on the brand right now/
Shoes- Keds borrowed from my mom

I cut my bangs! I guess it's not that big of a surprise, but I'm happy that I finally went through with it. It was totally on a whim Saturday morning before work, I just chopped them off. :]

This outfit is totally casual, but these are my favorite pants and shoes to wear during the warm months. I'm so so so glad it's finally warming up! When I took these pictures this morning the sky was covered in clouds, but still nice enough to show some skin. I love it! However, a huge thunderstorm is heading this way, and tomorrow is supposed to be cooler, yet sunny. You win some, you lose some. I'm just really enjoying the 70 degrees that we're getting now, because before you know it, it's going to be reaching over 100! ugh.

Anyway, so I totally had a great time showing off a tank top, and I love the crochet details on the back. I think it's really sweet.

In news of my personal life: I have been anti-Twilight since I first heard about it. Denouncing the books and the movies, and refusing to pay any attention to either of them. However, I am a firm believer in not judging something until you know about it. So, realizing I've been being a hypocrite, I asked my friend Alasun to let me borrow her copy of the Twilight book. I got it from her on Monday, and it will be finished by tonight. haha. I have to admit, it's really really really good. I'm pleasantly surprised. :] Have you read it? Or seen the movies? What do you think about them? I'm an avid reader, so of course I chose to read it first, and then maybe sometime soon I'll check out the film.

I don't find Robert Pattinson that attractive, but picturing him as Edward?! Perfection. hahah. I'm not a "twi-hard" as they are called, not even close. But I do give it some respect now. It has been a beautiful love story, and I'm such a mush!
So anyway, I just thought I'd share that with you and wonder if anyone else has gone through the same ordeal? Either with Twilight or another pop-culture phenom.


Alright, I'm off to brave the storm, and hope Jonathan gets home before it hits! Eek!

Out of the Loop..

This last week has been a little crazy, and off balance. The weather decided to revert back to some winter tendencies. We actually got snow Saturday, the first official day of spring! And it snowed! What?!We're still dealing with the cold after effects, so I've been in a lot of jeans and sweaters.

Anyway, I thought I should still do a post since it's been quite awhile. These pictures are actually from about a week ago. But I liked this outfit. It was really lounge-y and comfortable. :]

T-shirt- Abercrombie&Fitch from lost and found at my old job.hah./Plaid shirt- from Ross/Skirt- from Ross/Tights- Target/Shoes- Walmart/Sunglasses- Shake Junt

I love a plaid button-up and the skirt is like, sweatshirt material or something. haha. You can see that I'm very knowledgeable about these things. ;] I originally had on my TOMS with this, but decided I needed some black shoes, and honestly, those little sneakers are the only black shoes I actually own! Weird, right? I think it's time for some shopping. I've been saving up!


Alright, work is creeping up quicker and quicker on me. I guess I better get productive this morning. Have a happy Monday! Hopefully this week will be an awesome one.
