Sunglasses and I have always had a funny relationship. Back in the day when it was cool to have small and narrow glasses, thats when sunglasses didn't look right on my very round face. So I never wore them, lets just say that glasses of any kind were never part of my wardrobe. But now that glasses are almost as big as a persons face, thats when sunglasses deciede that they want to look right on my face. Don't get me wrong, I love big subglasses I just find it funny that the only time glasses look good on me are when they are as big as bug eyes. Someone once told me that I looked really good with big bug eyed sunglasses on and that not everyone can pull it off. So it makes me feel good to know that a relationship that could at one time never be is now complete and right.
Anyways, I would just like to say that I love big sunglasses. I love that they are back in stlye and that sunglasses that my mother once wore I can now wear. I love that you can use them to complete an outfit, use as a headband, or use them as a way to disguise yourslef from those around you.
Big sunglasses are in style and I hope they are here to stay!

When in Doubt....Go Shopping!!!
Hello Kids,
I have decided that my first official blog is going to be about shopping. I LOVE to shop! I shop all the time; when I'm happy, when I'm sad, rain or shine I will shop.
I have a certain type of shopping though that I like to do I call it bargain shopping. I love to go out and see what kind of deals I can get. What I like to do is set a money amount for myself, then I see how much cute stuff like clothes, shoes, and accessories I can get with that amount. It can be kind of hard sometimes because there are so many things that I want but that I don't always want to pay a lot for, so I set rules for myself. Rule #1: Hit clearance first. Rule #2: Never pay more than $10 on a piece of clothing. Rules 3 & 4 go with #2 but I put them down as their own rules. So Rule #3: Never pay more than $2 on sandals, $10 on flats, $20 on heels and boots. Rule #4: Never pay more than $5 on jewelry and $15 on purses. And last but not least, Rule #5: Use coupons if you have to, there is no shame in the coupon game.
Next time you go shopping try some of these rules. If doesn't even have to be shopping for clothes, you can use these rules for any kind of shopping. I guarantee without a doubt, you will save money and still get really cute things. Even if you only use 2 or 3 of these rules it will still get you what you want at a low price. This is a challenge to you self. At the end of the day when you have accomplishedthat challenge, you have every right to be proud of yourself. And with that you should reward yourself again..............and why shouldn't you..........you have the money :)

Welcome!
Hello all you bloggers out there!
My name is Jackie Sue; let me tell you a little about myself. I live in California. I am still in college. I’m a Journalist major with a minor in fashion. My goal is to be a fashion columnist for a newspaper or a magazine.
The majority of my blogs will be dedicated to my opinions of fashion in a large verity of areas. What I mean by this is I’ll have blogs posted about anything from what I think is a cute style to a good shopping day that I had. I’ll try to post my opinions on up coming styles and trends as often as I can.
I love to write, so sometimes my blogs might get kind of long. But I love to have input, not only on the subject that I am writing about, but also on my writing techniques themselves.
So I hope that my thoughts and opinions entertain you.
Let me know!
Enjoy!
