About Me

My photo
I am a young fashionista in process. My older sister (http://pinkchampagnefashion.blogspot.com)had a blog way before me, so I decided to start one. Thanks to my other sister, Maria, I have many great pictures of my outfits to choose from. Thanks sis! I hope to continue blogging for quite a while.

Embrace Your Inner Nerd







This being my first post, I think I should start by introducing myself. My name is JoJo, and I am 12 years old. I have two older sisters, and a little brother. I also have two turtles names Huss and Tyndale. My dad named them. Obviously! My mom and siblings were campaigning for cute names like Tartlet, and Peeleg. But he said that if we wanted to keep them, he would name them. They are so cute.



Anyway, this is obviously a fashion blog. Or at least most of it will be. I am thinking I might also put up some sketches I've drawn, mainly doodles, and some inspirational photographs. I have been debating about getting a blog for a few months, but finally gave in. This is a great way for me to get all the attention I "need". My mom would probably roll her eyes at that, but any other girl who has been 12-16 with in the last 20 years knows what I'm talking about.



My style is mainly retro and modern. I like to sometimes incorperate a few vintage pieces into my emsemble, but even though I love vintage, I can't usuallly pull it off. As a young fashionista, my style isn't yet at its' peak. I know I still have that "middle school" aspect about me. If it wasn't for having Pink_Champagne as my sister, I probably would be a mega Aberzombie. But luckily I'm not!



As you can see from this pictue I decided to post first, I like hats. A lot. They are like the one accesorie i would choose on a desert island. I only have about 5, but if you keep looking at my pictures as I put them up, you will notice that in about half my outfits I use one.



I love rummage sales and salvation army. They are the most wonderous places to spend that $101 from Christmas. They have tons of great things (even though you often have to search) and they are so cheap. Do you know anyone else who has gotten an authentic LV bag for 50 cents??? Yup, that would be me!



I have lately gotten into a slight punk fase. At least I like punk clothes. If you have ever watched Mirror Mask, I love the outfits the evil girl wears at the end. They are sooo what I would wear if i could find some stuff cheap that was like that.



Some of these outfits you will see you might hate. But please still comment and tell me what you would change and why you don't like my outfit. I appreciate negative feedback!



Not that I don't love positive comments. Those are my fave type!!



Anyways, now to explain my outfit. I got the shirt because I needed it for chior. I think I got it at Target. The jeans are (unluckily) from Walmart. That is the only place my mom will let me buy them. But then again, a growing (quickly!) almost teen doesn't need designer jeans she'll wear for 9 months! I "temporarily borrowed" the suspenders from my brother. I also did that to his vest. And hopefully to a tie of his if I get my hands on it. Don't worry; he never wears any of them! The Converse I got at Salva for about a buck. I got it ina $3 bag along with some other stuff. I know. One dollar. I actually think they are guy converse, because they are size 5 and a teeny big. I wear about size 6 1/2.



Anyway, I appreciate any feedback you are willing to give!



Thanks for checking out my page!
