choose not a life of immitation

(wilfred faux leather shorts, diesel shirt, house of harlow necklace)

This year, I made a vow that I will work on my savings and cut down some expenses. I say that everytime during tax season but I am actually doing the unthinkable. So far, I have cut out doing my nails, my hair, clubbing (not that I even have anyone to go with), buying clothes/shoes on a limited budget, and using coupons whenever I can. I named this blog "Saving Betty" because I seriously thought I sold my soul to the devil for a few toys and happy meal. So what is behind your guys' blog name?

PS. Thank you for all the Birthday wishes :)

i want to be a wise woman

my last day to be a 22 year old outfit: wilfred sweater, zara shorts, foxtail keychain

my 23 year old outfit: talula tank, wilfred cardigan & trouser pants, hermes belt

today is my birthday. i worked. if i looked back at 22, all i did was work. i work about 55 hours/week. my commitment to work has made me a loner, but i learned that you really have to be your own best friend.

a hundred days have made me older

marc by marc jacobs blazer, evil twin dress, h&m lace ears, chanel (gabrielle) rouge coco lipstick

these lace ears were only $6CAD at H&M. closest thing to the Maison Michel's rabbit ears without having to spend a fortune. i wanted to wear them next week for my birthday, but what the hell, i ain't even having a party.

love is gonna save us

talula bustier, rachel roy shorts, wilfred belt, f21 headband, house of harlow necklace

because of my laziness to try on clothes, i am stuck with these shorts that are huge on me. so excuse the belt sitting awkwardly in those loops.

oversized

wilfred top, rebecca minkoff spike bracelet, vintage rings, house of harlow necklace

i'll always prefer oversized, messy, loose-fitting clothes over super tight, hip hugging clothes... i just want to eat!
