Ideals

This is me thinking in Art.

School Daze, Vol. 2

Hey guys! It's sort of been a minute. Haha. I've been soooo busy with school!
However, I've got tons to update you on. Firstly, I have a new camera. I snagged a 7D for a cool $1300. The guys sold me shitty lenses, but... I'm gonna sell them, and buy better ones. No biggie. Anyway, I had a pretty mellow day yesterday, and took tons of pictures. Check em out.

I think the colors are amazing. Another awesome thing about the Canons is the image quality. They have a way of being sharp without looking digital. There's a filmy aspect in there, some how. Anyway, after class, me and Najm went off campus and I took picture of him, and he took some of me.

Everyone says he reminds them of Tyler, the Creator.

Oh yeah, I have an afro.
A big one.

And... Najm's weird.

And that's it. I shot all these with a 18-135mm Canon f3.5 lens. The outside shots are cool, but the inside shots sucked, so I'm selling it. There's not enough depth and my 50mm is waaaay better. Contact me at najiyyahphipps@aol.com if you're interested.

School Daze x Jia Everyday

So, I hadn't posted in a few days. I haven't had time to upload pictures of my outfits, so today, I thought I'd upload pictures I took while I was walking around school with my friend.

Just so there's NO confusion, my friend, Najm, took this. He makes a big deal about it, so here ya go.

I took all of these with my 55-200mm VR lens, sooo... yeah.

A Little Cocky x Jia's Everyday

Today was day numero dos of classes, or class, in my case. I had Intro to Islam from 2-3:15, and then I went home. I thought I'd try out my turban today, since I would be at school long enough to be too hot. Here's some pictures of today's outfit. Btw, peep the $7.50 magnificence dripping from my ears!

The turban's actually a scarf I bought on Canal St. The tee's from XXI, the shorts are Target. 

MAC foundation, NARS Angelika cheeks, blue off-brand shadow, Volume Express mascara (purple bottle), Sephora's "Naked" lips.

College Kiddo x Jia.

Hey, so I started college today. I'm sooo sleepy. My God. I go to UNCG, and I'm undecidedly majored. I take English, African American Studies and Art, in that order. They're unbearably boring, amazing, and horrible, also in that order. I decided I'd try to consistently blog my 'fits this school year, so I'm starting with the first day.

MAC foundation, some off-branded eyeshadow from the Beauty Supply, back up by primer, and naked, matte, Sephora lipstick.

Excuse my undone toes, check out my gladiator sandals, courtesy of the good fellas at "Rockport".

Charlotte Rousse corset (I know), thrifted blush pink maxi skirt.

Thrifted wing rings, GShock, DIY tribal bracelet, mint green nail polish.

Thrifted Cuban link bracelet.

Forever 21 cross ring.

And that's about it, I guess. I hope you enjoyed the ensemble. Catch ya later.
