As finals approach, I believe one of the keys to doing well on your exams is actually putting effort into how you look while writing the paper. Maybe it's odd, but when I put time into getting ready, I feel more awake and alert, allowing me to remember more clearly what I studied. That's why I willingly sacrifice that extra 20 minutes of sleep after pulling a near all-nighter for the sake of looking put-together.
The 3/4 sleeved mini-dresses that H&M have been selling are so ideal for these exam days. They're the perfect canvas for accessorizing and so easy-breasy! To top it off-- they are super affordable-- I picked this striped red one up for $14.95!
To students: what do you wear during exams?
Back to studying!
Wearing: H&M dress and tights, ASOS vintage-style necklace, shoes from Hong Kong

Oooooo I love that dress! You look totally amazing in it! Little hottie. :) Oh how I wish there was an H&M in Hawaii! I feel like I always say that... so hopefully someone from H&M who's perusing the lovely blog and comments, decide to shut me up and bring and H&M to Hawaii!! hee hee
Nice touch of whimsy with the balloon too!

You look stunning here as well -- I love the color and shine of your hair, as well as the color red against your skin. Red is definitely your color!
Well after this, I should think nothing of falling down stairs.
