First Guest Post!

Hey everyone, its Emily and today we are having are first guest post! Yay! Hopefully we can get some outfit posts from you guys. Its boring with only us three:( Email us your photos at ldscoveredgirls@gmail.com! Anyways, say hello to my older sister Ellen!!

Hey guys! I'm Ellen 

So this is really exciting for both my sister and myself. I know all these awesome girls and I get to hang out with them on a daily basis. Let me tell me a little bit about myself. I am 17 and half as well as senior in high school. I'm getting excited about college and my passion right now is in art. I LOVE ART! It's the best thing in the whole world in my opinion. I guess I would say that my style is a kinda hipster/vintage/skater/t-shirt and jean sorta thing going on. Right now my goal is to get through high school (I have a pretty bad case of senior-itis) and have an amazing summer. It would be my dream to work at Disneyland and I would love to visit Russia.

Okay so that aside here's my outfit

T-shirt : Threadless($20, I'm going to talk about it)

Over shirt: Target

Pants: also Target

Shoe: Thrifted Converse ($20)

The shoes were a bargain! Converse are my kind of shoe and the forest green color I couldn't resist. What I'm mostly going to focus on in this post is my most favorite online T-shirt store I've found so far. It's Threadless (here's the link). Now the cool thing about Threadless is that people from all over the world design each and every shirt and then people can score the designs. The designs that score the highest are printed and the awesome part, I'm fairly certain they pay the chosen design's artist $2,000. That's so cool, right. However word to the wise although Threadless can be fantastic and it does have very cute and/or funny shirts some of their shirts are a little iffy subject wise. Usually on the whole it's splendiferous. So check it out! The shirt I'm wearing is called "Voyage over Edinburgh".

(Sorry this picture is definitely not flattering, but you get the idea)

 Their shirts are usually really detailed and quite clever and cute. So Yay!

Here's the band I'm into right now, Hope you enjoy!

 

Virtuous Vintage

Top: H&M

Belt: Thrifted

Skirt: Target(ongoing sale-$9)

 Tights: Target($6)

Shoes: Thrifted(Steve Madden)

Bag: Thrifted

I totally LOVE this outfit! The skirt's design is very vintage and 'out there'. The blue and yellow pattern on the skirt pair well with a plain shirt. The ruffle sleeves of the top are a plus as well. That alone would   be fine, but to spice things up a little, try adding tights of any color( as long as it's a deep darker color). Here I wore deep Maroonish purple tights from Target. I like how it brings out the 'vintage feeling' hidden within this outfit. Wearing tights is also good to cover your legs when you're wearing the type of skirt that moves up when you sit down, giving off the appearance it's TOO SHORT. (like in the picture above) :(  All the attributes in this outfit are things very easy to find in your local department store. All you really need is: darker tights, a patterned skirt, a belt, possibly a necklace,  a plain solid shirt, and obviously shoes.

Thanks for Checking out our blog!!! We appreciate it!! Here's some good tunes:)

( I Love this Song! Its catchy!!!)

Going for the Gold

Belt: Thrifted

Shoes: JcPenny

Shirt: H&M

Pants: Macy's

Watch: Christmas gift

Sweater: Thrifted

Gold has always been one of my favorite colors to wear. This pleated shimmering gold top goes quite well with a sweater and belt. This outfit can be played up or down for any occasion. It's both classy and casual. It's also perfect for those days that are not too cold and not to hot. Thanks!

* Excuse my face please:) *

Have a great time going back to school!!! Yeaaaa..... haha

This song rocks! Listen to it:)

Happy New Year!!

How was everyone's Holidays? Fantastic hopefully. Mine were pretty great, I spent most of them in Utah so I wasn't looking too cute, but I was staying warm. Haha, any ways, heres the first outfit post of the year!

Top: Forever 21

Jeans: American Eagle

Belt: Forever 21 via Thrift Store

  I love lace & Peter Pan collars so this shirt was a perfect combo of the two! It dresses up an otherwise plain outfit.

                              

I love American Eagle Jeans! And guess what? They are on sale now!! Go to American Eagle's website here and check them out! They have all different colors and styles. I might have to buy the white skinny jeans.

Have a wonderful day.

Elephants on Parade

Sorry about the wait. The Christmas season and last few weeks of school leading up to the break can get pretty dang hecktic.

Anywho, I am excited to announce that we are going to add a new kind of post into the mix. We will be searching store websites, finding outfit pieces, posting pictures and links to the site, and putting together outfits that way. This way, you can actually buy the outfits if you wanted, since they are current to the store. Here we go!

Exploring Musical Frontiers

I'm really excited for the music section of our blog. Music means a lot to me and I am always happy to find an amazing song with clean lyrics, as most people are. One day we might do a seperate blog dedicated to music but for now I want to do a post with only songs just to throw some choices out there. I listen to most kinds of music so I will be providing a large array of genres to choose from.

 

First off: Lego House by Ed Sheeran

I'm hoping to learn this song on acoustic guitar soon.

By the way, anyone recognize this actor from Harry Potter?

 

 

 

Next we have Gold Mine by Breanne Düren. If you are a fan of Adele you will probably enjoy this. Breanne is a part of Owl City's touring group and she does the back up vocals for a few of their songs. She has only released one EP on her own so far called Sparks.

 

 

 

Doesn't this look like it would be really fun?

Second Go by Lights.

 

 

 

The music video for We Are One Tonight by Switchfoot is one of my favorites. It was made really well and I am amazed how they made this all come together.

 

 

 

This is just a great feel-good song.

Undefeated by Jason Derulo.

 

Have a magnificent day!
