Hello all you lovely Sincerely, Truly Scrumptious readers!
I'm Abbigayle Rashae from True Blue Abbi, my lifestyle blog I've
had a for a few years now.
Alyssa and I swapped buttons a little while ago, and decided to
guest post for each other as well. She's over at my blog today if you'd like to
see! Isn't she just the cutest thing ever?! (:
Okay, so, I guess I should probably introduce myself a little
first.
So, you guys already know that my name's Abbigayle Rashae. I'm
fifteen, turning sixteen on July 31st! I'm living in the heart of Iowa, and
I've been homeschooled since the middle of sixth grade. I'm going to be a
Junior this fall. Pretty darn exciting stuff there, aha. I've been blogging
since June 25th, 2010. I've definitely learned some things throughout the year!
My blog has evolved as well. I love blogging, reading, writing, photography,
fashion, learning, travel (not that I travel), and a few weird things as
well.
Maybe a few random facts? Think think guest posts totally call
for that. Let's be honest here guys.
-I still sleep with a stuffed animal. Right now it's Mr. Tiger;
my friend and I won him from one of those claw machines...seriously, who wins
those?! (:
-I'm addicted to horror. But, I have nightmares SO easily. I've
actually had to sleep in my parents room at night because of it. I'll wake one
of them up, telling them I had a nightmare, and they'll let me sleep on their
couch.
-I love eating tomatoes. Like, fresh from the garden. They're
the best thing ever!
Alright, that's as good as it's gonna get you guys. I'm awful at
thinking of things when it comes to sharing with others. I'm not a very good
talker...
So, onto something fashion related.
I thought I'd go ahead and share some of the favorite things in
my closet, and where I like to shop.
For starters, you should know that when it comes to my style,
I'm about 85% Minimalist, and 15% Maverik. But, I'm learning to branch out a
bit more. My blog has really helped with that!
-Skinny Jeans (They work great for me; meaning they show my
hips..which proves I have a shape! Yay!)
*For anyone wondering, I'm 5ft 8in, approx. 110lbs, and wear a
size 4 with most things*
-I'm really into layers, so my Down East Basics tee shirts are
PERFECTION. (Check out DEB!)
-Hair Accessories (I actually only truly got into these around
the start of the school year last fall. So glad I did though! My mom has an
Etsy Store, the Treena Bean Boutique, and she makes me things nearly whenever
I'd like! Thank you mom!)
-Vans/Converse (These are seriously the best shoes ever. EVER.)
-You have to dig! Seriously guys, if you want to find the best
things, it'll take a little time.
-Set a budget. You can even overspend with thrifting! (Totally
guilty, not gonna lie.)
-Look for rips, stains, etc. If you don't think you can fit a
rip, don't get it.
-Make sure you really love the item! (If you're buying it 'cause
it's a mediocre piece of clothing for a couple bucks, I promise you're never
going to wear that sucker.)
Spring/Summer is a great time for thrifting, 'cause people are
getting rid of their old things, buying for Summer Vacation, and there's always
a Garage Sale going on! It's a perfect Girl's Day, heading around town to the
different Garage Sales, and getting smoothies, or ice cream after.
Alright, I guess I'll be done with my turn on this lovely little
blog!
For those of you who made it through this whole post..thank you.
I love you! Seriously, you guys are awesome!
Please
stop by True Blue Abbi and say hi! I promise I don't bite.
