The Styling Citizen: 2012

I decided to skip school today (oops), I spent a majority of my day filling out the common app and sending off applications for colleges (ugh). After I finished all of that crap I went out for an 1 hr 1/2 bike ride; I’ve never really noticed how beautiful my town actually is, this thought came to me after I got over my fear of running into a bear during their prime season. I ended up burning around 450 - 500 cals from the bike ride
After that I was just in the zone,I watched tv and did 100 squats and 100 crunches, and ended up going on a 30 minute walk around my neighborhood. I saw at least 20 runners go by, they were all preparing for the marathon tomorrow, and I was over here thinking, “Only a few more months and I’ll be able to run again!”
But from walking I burnt around 78 calories!!!
So in total I’ve burnt about 578 + calories! (Not including squats/crunches)
I’m so proud of myself! :)

I was looking at all the new arrivals at Forever 21's website when I came upon this beauty

It reminded me of a top that I was obsessing over at Nastygal.com

The huge difference between the two is that the first one is $19.80 and the one from Nastygal is $110.60
Granted the Nastygal one is real leather, so it has a reason to be so expensive, but I think the price is still to expensive for the common people since they had to lower it from $158 to $110.
But my point is that top from Forever 21 could pass as a Nastygal product, I'm not a big fan of their use of the sheer material, I think it would look a lot cuter if they didn't even waste their time on it.
Cutting that material off and replacing the zipper would only cost you a few more dollars, but you would still end up saving around $90.80!
