Modern Mod



I got my grades today and I passed all my exams, magna cum laude! Soooo proud of myself and ridiculously relieved that all my grades were either good or very good! I'm one of those silly girls who don't have the discipline nor the attention span to study a lot for amazing grades, but I have the lords to thank for the fact that I have very broad interests. I get quite into the things I have to study, which helps me remember everything without having to cram it in. I actually enjoy reading the coursematerial most of the time! I'm happy I can finally REALLY get my mind into the new semester, sorting things out and getting started on all the new assignments. Can't wait. Ha!

I got this dress for like 11 euro online, shipping included. Secondhand and very on trend with the whole sixties/girly vibe for spring, and I knew it would mix in perfectly with my wardrobe. On top of that it is great quality (lovely knit fabric and cute buttons) and super cheap for how adorable it looks! This dress would cost at least three times at much at H&M for example, so I'm incredibly pleased. I bought it weeks ago so I had forgotten all about it when it arrived this morning, talking about a nice surprise! 

I slept in this morning and as you can make out from my long text, I've recovered some of my senses. I still need to sleep some more though. I wish humans could go in hibernation, I want to wake up when spring is here!

dress: secondhand, via laws of general economy
tights, coat, headband: H&M
shoes: Kimchi&Blue (Urban Outfitters)
