Feels Like Summer

Where I live, it is about 80 degrees fahrenheit, and sunny. It is beautiful. It's just another reminder of me longing for summer. Yesterday was a Friday too! It's basically torture that me are forced to go to school! Haha, here was my outfit yesterday-

Shirt-H&M Pants-STS Blue (Nordstrom) Shoes-Dv8 (Nordstrom)

Thank YOU!

Photo Diary

I recently got a camera for Christmas (Santa gave it to me!). It is a Nikon AW 1, which is water proof, up to 49 feet underwater, freeze proof, and shock proof (up to six feet). It is truly Gracie-Proof. Here's some of my pics!

Thrifting Tips

Over break, I went thrifting with some friends. We go often, and have master it to an art. We are serious thrifters, but we have fun doing it. If you don’t know what you are doing, you can get very lost, and frustrated. When planning to go thrifting, make sure you have the following;

-Money (I know this is common sense, but make sure you bring actual paper bills. Some thrift stores don’t always take debit/credit cards)

-Tank Top (You might want to wear this when trying on clothing. You never know who was wearing it before you)

-Wear something comfy and light (It makes the trying-on process easier and faster. Also, thrift store can be claustrophobic)

-Bring a reusable bag, or wear a backpack.

-Old Clothes (Some thrift store trade in clothes.)

Thrifting can be very frustrating at times. A way to solve this is to always keep in mind, or have inspiration for what you are looking for. It is always unpredictable what you are going to find. If you have patience it is likely you will find something similar to what you are looking for, but the most exciting/fun finds, are something that is totally unrelated to what you are looking for. Some finds are also cool to up-cycle, and recreate. If often look for pieces that I will turn into a diy project.

Here are some of our finds-

Hello!

Hey everyone!
In effort to create a more professional blog/online journal, I have started this blog, Rosy Heart. My name is Gracie Rose, and I am 15. I have been blogging since 7th grade. It all started when my friends and I wanted to experiment with fashion, not just stand amongst the others. My old blog Ocean of Jewels, was a place for me to vent. I wanted to take a new direction in the blogging-verse. My style has change since I first started Ocean of Jewels, which was originally Fashion Dorks, and Under Dog. I really want to be able to take a new path in blogging.

The name Rosy Heart resembles my name of corse, but most importantly my personality. This blog is one of my many efforts in this new year of 2014. It will be a positive outlet for me to share my outfits, look books, art, diys, and many more adventures. I hope with all of this, I will receive something great, and meet a whole new community.
