hasn't felt the same

Hey ladies. It hasn't felt the same for me lately to blog over here. I am going through a lot of stress right now. Some personal things messing up with my blogging world. Miss Cara
told me to update my blog more and that made me smile. I just feel weird lately and I am slipping into a world that is altered. I'm just sad I guess. I am not sure if I should even blog here anymore. Anyways just for Cara I am blogging because I love her! She also added me on facebook which was a pleasant surprise. :]

On behalf of Cara..I am going to answers to questions she asked me earlier.
1) Do you have your own apartment?
Yes, I do! I actually am moving out by August 22nd. I haven't found a place to live yet though.. and I am not sure if i am even staying here now. (Oh Cara if you look at the birthday picture of me that you commented on you'll see my apt living room in the background:]. Oh and bedroom door ;])

Do you have a job?
Currently..no. I hate it. It drives me crazy. I am praying/hoping to get this nanny position I just was interviewed for today. It is perfect for me honestly. Its the only motivation I've had lately. *fingers crossed, prayers keep going* Please, keep me in your prayers! I really need this job to stay in wilmington.

I am loving the idea of fall right now. I am craving to get a few of these items for my fall wardrobe. What do you all think? I know my style is a little odd.. :]


These shoes are gorgeous. I want to wear more heels this fall :]. I also want a pair of clogs..




add some bright sweaters, cute print tights and new earrings. I'll be set. You will also be seeing a lot of new refashions soon.

P.S. Spread the word on the giveaway! I am pushing the end date till August 17th! Love you guys!

P.P.S EMMA LOVE!

hey ladies. i'm sorry i haven't updated or commented in forever. i've been contemplating a giveaway for you all. i thought about making you all something neat and cute..or maybe a print of a drawing i've done with cute hair clips..or something more fun. Ironically my new tumblr already has over 70 followers. It's not even two weeks old! This is why I decided I need a giveaway. Its bad enough my two week old tumblr is beating out this blog. It made me kind of bummed. So i thought why not a giveaway to spice things up? So here goes..

he was the bravest man i ever knew

I know, I know many people aren't too fond of Severus Snape. I though have a soft spot for him. I am one of those weirdos who feel too much. I am also one of those people who has a soft spot for others who seem pushed away. I know a lot of people think Snape was a jerk, and so on and so on. I honestly believe h was a nice guy who had a bad string of unfortunate events. He did save Harry in the first book. He also was hopefully in love with Lily Potter and protected her son for the rest of his life. He also worked as a double agent and did a realllly good job. So this HP post is dedicated to Snape. You may not agree with me but I stand by what I say and what Harry said: "He was the bravest man I ever knew." (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows)


I know the next statement I say may make me sound borderline crazy but.. I am already excited for fall and christmas! I already started working on some presents..so that way I don't get too stressed out close to the date. I will have to share some pictures in my next post. I thought it'd be lovely to share a little bit of my wish list. I personally feel that these items are useful and very relevant to my life.

1) A dress form! I reallly need one. It is kind of hard creating clothes at times because I have to put it up against myself. Which kind of sucks cause I only have two hands..too bad i don'tt have eight or so. I would love to get an adjustable one so it'd be easier to make other people's clothes. Easier to size things out, and easier to make my own patterns with. I am saving up for one and maybe adding it on my christmas list this year. *fingers crossed*


2)A Tablet for my Macbook Pro. I love working on graphics, art and all that fun stuff. I work on art outside of the computer world such as painting, drawing, and some other fun stuff. I have been wanting a tablet for a while now though. I think it'd be great for making some clothes designs and other fun things.


3) A serger! Currently I don't have one and I definitely want to get one as soon as possible. Thankfully I have a finishing stitch on one of my other sewing machines. I just feel like it'd be handy if I had one. A nice professional finish.


Thats all I really wish for I hate being greedy. I feel guilty just even wanting any of those items! Do any of you sew? Do any of you want a quick/wearable/cute tutorial? I kind of want to make one for all of you. I think it'd be fun. I need ideas though if you even want one! Let me know

love love love,
jasmine

P.S. Since we all LOVE Emma so much.. a little picture gift of the lovely lady!

give me some emma

Since it seems everyone enjoyed my last post about HP i thought it'd be fun to continue the trend. I am going to add a touch of HP to every post for a little while. Today though I am focusing on the gorgeous and fresh Emma Watson. I still remember seeing her with her bushy frizzy hair and now she is this gorgeous woman. Yes I said woman. I believe she is a way better role model then Miley Cyrus could ever wish to be. Emma Watson turned in to a lovely woman. I can't wait to see her in other roles.

i love these shorts! i think i am going to go thrifting and find a pair of jeans. then i will cut them up. ;]

Oh and speaking of other roles. They are creating The Perks of Being a Wallflower into a movie. Which I am honestly not happy with at all. The book was amazing and I'd hate for them to ruin the specialness of this wonderful story. Although Emma Watson is rumored to be playing Sam. We will see what happens..



I feel like i haven't had an OOTD in forever. So I finally snapped a picture of the outfit I was wearing today. Don't mind the wrinkly skirt. I was rushing out for lunch and din't have time to whip out the iron. Although my necklace is awesome. My little sister got it for me for my birthday. I swear its the cutest thing




Tshirt- Forever 21, 3.50
Skirt- Forever 21, 10.50
Necklace-Forever 21 birthday gift from my little sister
Sandals- Forever 21
Purse- Rue 21

for in dreams..

First off I am so sorry that I've been a horrible blogger. I am also sorry I haven't been commenting as much. Its just been a crazy busy mess lately plus still have internet problem. I promise I'll be a better blogger friend to you all and if i have to get on my iphone to comment. I shall :]


It is almost the beginning of the end. I can't believe it. Can you guys? It kind of breaks my heart that within in a year it will all be over. :'[ I plan on having my own little harry potter party this fall. I think it would be a nice start for the season. Also, I am going as Princess Jasmine and Hermione for halloween. Should be fun! :]

Anyone else excited for Harry Potter?
I honestly just tried to write a list out of my favorite books in order but I can't! All of them just built up into a great collection. Something i want to share with my kids also. Ironically as i type this i am wearing my Gryffindor shirt. ;]



It hasn't even been six months since I reallly started to sew ( i did mess around when i was like 12).  I can't believe how much I have improved since then.  I am so blessed to have gained this skill and also for having a great bf who taught me the ropes. I also am so blessed that i have all of you amazing people who actually read this silly blog. All of your wonderful and sweet comments has given me the drive to start sewing more and more. Fall is approaching and I am excited to introduce my fall line to you all when it is time. I love you guys and I appreciate every comment you have left me. Thank you for letting my blog blossom a little bit. Even though i only have 27 followers I thought i wouldn't even make it to ten. It'd mean the world to me if you spread the word about my blog. In return i will introduce a new giveaway once i hit 50 followers. I promise an amazing dress or shirt or just something really really cute. Maybe even a giftcard to one of on my fave places (mod cloth!) So please give me some love and spread the word! love you all
So in honor of me mentioning this I have decided to make a timeline of some of my creations from the beginning to now. 







love and harry potter,
jasmine

EDIT: TEAM HARRY FOREVER :]
