Casual OOTD and a favorite FOTD

Today's post features what I wore yesterday.  It's kind of funny because I actually hadn't planned on doing an OOTD post (with this outfit), but a girl in my class said she liked my outfit so I felt inspired!  Don't you love when nice things like that happen?  It makes my day so much brighter.
Anyway, I'm also posting my FOTD which is one of my favorite "go-to" looks: bright eyes with precise liner and lots of mascara, paired with glowy cheeks and bold lips.  I don't do liquid/gel liner very often, but every now and then I love the crisp, clean look it gives (aside from being very retro!).  And of course red lips, I love them so!  Well, I do more berry shades of red usually, but anyway let's move on.

Shirt- Forever 21
Dress (underneath)- Pac Sun
Belt & Scarf- Forever 21
Shoes- Urban Outfitters

So I just had a realization that I'm wearing pretty much the exact same thing as in a previous OOTD, just with the shirt unbuttoned and a dress underneath (LOL, I'm not even going to link it due to my embarrassment!).  This goes to show you how much I mix and match with my wardrobe.  I don't have piles and piles of clothes for being a fashion major (well, all of those are at my parent's house), but I really love every piece I do have!  I also haven't been wearing about half of what I own in the last few months, lol.  This made me think of a new post idea- I'll show you my closet!  It's kind of cool the way the dorms have them set up- it's open, with a cool storage system inside.  Just need to reorganize it!

On to the FOTD!

To transition to nighttime, I just packed on a bit of MAC Club into my outer corners and crease for some more definition around my eyes.  I'm so in love with that eyeshadow!
