I'm an insomniac!

(No Makeup AH!)

So it's another night of insomnia, right now I can see the sunrise and I'm just barely getting sleepy. But I have always been like this since I was a kid. Me and my sister would stay up all night and once the sun would peep through we would take morning walks, it was so nice and refreshing. I would love to do those things now but it's just not the same. I might. And back when I used to have my own room, I would sneak outside just to sit on my lawn and breathe in the night air and look at the sky. To me, the night can be so much more beautiful and mysterious, it's scary too cause I'm also a bit paranoid but every night around the same time, 1a.m. or so and afterwards I feel more inspired and creative. I really don't know how to explain it, but I always want to do DIY's or painting, sewing,writing, or just taking a stroll around the block to just think. And the funny thing is when I'm doing the same things during the day it feels not very interesting or entertaining but at night something in me just switches. I just prefer the night life, it's quietness, no loud cars or lawnmowers how I'm possibly the only one awake, and I don't have to be bothered with anyone.Maybe my dilemma is restless nights haha. Anyways I'm off to slumber and dream the day away. Goodnight <3

Can you read each others minds??

 Basically, it's as though I'm looking into a mirror, we are mirror identical twin girls. I always, always get comments from people asking if I can read her mind, feel her pain, if we like all the same things, dress the same. And to answer some of these questions, quite frankly, I've never been able to "read her mind" but in some instances I know exactly what she is going to say, and do, and feel. But it's not how most people think. It's just a feeling that I get. And for the most part my guess will be right. It's funny with twins, she is my only best friend, she knows all of my secrets (down to the very last detail) and if it came down to it, I'm pretty certain she would be my partner in crime haha. No worries I wont go robbing a bank or anything, I'm just trying to give a you an idea into "twin-ness". 

Secondly I'm not sure if I feel her pain now, because she is in South Korea, and on a day to day basis I don't know if she has a pain in her left big toe like I do, but when we were tiny I remember having an ache on the left side of my arm, lets just say, and she would feel an ache on her right. It was like that, mirrored pains.

When it come to liking the same things, it's to a certain extent, we basically love the same foods, colors, animals, but not fashion. She is conservative and clean. She likes girly things and classic styles. And I've always liked boho and layers, tribal print and bright colors. 

Now that she is oversea's and I can't see her or be with her, it's hard for me. I dream about her all the time and nowadays people who know me in real life say that they think I'm her, and that I sound just like her, and I guess that's because she's so far away, I don't know. 

Some people told me that they wouldn't want to have a twin even if it had it's advantages, because they felt it would take away their uniqueness. But I would Never wish to have been born a single child. I feel so lucky to have grown up with my twin because it added so much to the experiences in my life. If you could have a twin, or triplet, quadruplet, or whatever would you?

My favorite accessory!

SHOES!

So the other day I went to the Burlington Coat Factory for the first time, and to be honest I wasn't expecting much. I imagined the place to be full of older women clothing and a small selection, but when I went in I was amazed at all the nice trendy things they had. Like jewelery and makeup! But the best find of all were these Steve Madden sandals. I am in love with these, I think they're gorgeous! I couldn't believe they carried Steve Madden along with Ralph Lauren and other nice brands for SO cheap. These were $9.99!! That's crazy, because I know they retailed for $40-$50. I don't know but these are what I'll be wearing ALL summer I already know it :)

And these omg! I found them while I was thrifting and I just had to have them. And after I got them I started to see them everywhere on lookbook on youtube and I thinks it's funny, I completely stumbled across these. They're handmade from real leather and even though I've seen ones like these, mine will be unique since somebody handmade them. I just adore these moccassin booty's so so much!
