Well i did a similar and updated version over on <a href="http://hnblife.tumblr.com/post/30460518042/dontwear">HNB life</a>. You should go take a look.

Yes this could create a whole new set of problems, but right now this is what i am going to do. Basically blogger won't let me upload any more photos without paying monthly fees. Lets face it i don't want to pay to blog. The other reason is blogger has been glitching frequently...not being able to put a title for posts or being able to publish a post. Instead of becoming frustrated every time i try to blog i just decided to switch where i blog.<br />

This meant i had plenty of time to hang out in my room and play dress up. Basically i spent an hour or two going through my clothes and putting outfits together. Once again i have realized there are a lot of clothes in my closet and so much potential for them. I came up with at least 10 new outfits from just a few different items. It was fun to see all the fun combinations. Perhaps i will refrain from buying new clothes for a while and actually wear some of the outfits i discovered.<br />

I decided i wasn't going to let the ugly weather get me down, so i chose to make my own sunshine. I put on the brightest (maybe 2nd brightest) yellow shirt i own. I think it worked. I got to spend the day in Beverly Hills with a dear friend who i hadn't seen since January (i couldn't believe it had been that long). We spent the day window shopping, exploring decorating stores, and eventually looking at an apartment for her to rent (which happens to be perfect.... praying it works out), and getting dinner at CPK all while dodging rain drops. This wonderful day ended with a gorgeous bright pink sunset as we drove home from LA.<br />
<br />
Here are a few pics from the day<br />
<br />
Just kidding....<br />
Well i just learned that there is a storage limit for photos. Apparently I have hit my limit. So until i fix this problem without buying a monthly plan i will try and recreate my outfits on polyvore and link you to them. Oh google/blogger how you create problems that i didn't even know were possible.<br />

2. Sprayable sunscreen is not reliable<br />
3. SPF 30 is enough if it is applied properly over the whole body<br />
4. Some sunburn locations don't hurt immediately, instead they sneak up on ya a day or so later<br />
5. Aloe is most soothing when it is fresh out of the fridge<br />
6. Ice packs work really well for easing the pain and swelling<br />
7. Staying in shorts and a loose shirt is the best clothing choice aside from wearing practically nothing<br />
8. Being sunburned can create productivity (Laundry has never been done so efficiently)<br />
9. Going outside on a sunny day is not a good idea, along with any contact with something remotely hot. (oven, laptop, water...all bad experiences)<br />
10. Next time...if there is a next time...spf 30 lotion will be applied with much detail, and then reapplied once at the beach<br />
<br />
{In case you were wondering the tops of my legs (below the knee) got burned, as well as my rib area ( i don't know what to call it. its above my belly button and below my bust). So there you have it. Please learn from my mistakes and put sunscreen on thoroughly.}Holly Brookhyserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14787711696052533908noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109104624726683091.post-83434878192336079152012-06-24T18:34:00.001-07:002012-06-24T18:35:37.824-07:00...<div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<br />
Thankfully my days have been filled with a little more than what i just listed (but not much). Last week i came back from a 12 day trip in northern california with my friend erin. Since being back I have spent lots of time watching kittens galavant on the back deck. They are so cute and i am glad they chose our deck as their home (even though i think we officially scared them off after trying to trap the mom so she could be fixed). My days include my usual routine of starting my day off with coffee. In my desire to be healthier i have started drinking tons of ice water throughout the day (this means having to pee more often than normal...so annoying), eating fresh fruits and vegetables as snacks instead of chips (mmm salt and vinegar chips...i mean mmmm vegetables), and attempting to workout more (basically i wear workout clothes and occasionally do squats, lunges, or table tops). I must say it is going pretty well...well if nothing else it's progress. In order to change my paleness i have been spending 20-30 minutes every few days sunbathing on the pond deck. Slowly but surely i am becoming "tan" which is never really that tan, it is just less white. I suppose i should be doing more with my days since this is probably my last real summer, i have to enter the real working world eventually, but until then i can waste away my time in lazy bliss.<br />
<br />
Hopefully all of you are enjoying this lovely weather and making the most of your day. At some point i will remember to take pictures of my outfits (the days when i do get dressed) and will be able to get back into a blogging routine. Until then enjoy these random posts and feel free to send me outfit ideas or things you want my opinion on.Holly Brookhyserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14787711696052533908noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109104624726683091.post-92057349745179656192012-06-09T19:04:00.001-07:002012-06-09T19:04:52.158-07:00Get the look: Rose Byrne<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><div style='width:500px;margin:0 auto'><div style='position:relative;'><a href='http://www.polyvore.com/get_look_rose_byrne/set?.embedder=2268971&.svc=blogger&id=50622422'><img force='1' border='0' height='378' title='Get the look: Rose Byrne' src='http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/45Kx5A6eZnkUri1j5xLcw/cid/50622422/id/XkStd0_MTDWvPnedMkjggA/size/c500x378.jpg' alt='Get the look: Rose Byrne' width='500'/></a></div></div><br/><div style='text-align:center'><small><a href='http://www.polyvore.com/get_look_rose_byrne/set?.embedder=2268971&.svc=blogger&id=50622422'>Get the look: Rose Byrne</a> by <a href='http://hollynbrook.polyvore.com/?.embedder=2268971&.svc=blogger'>hollynbrook</a> featuring <a href='http://www.polyvore.com/embellished_tops/shop?query=embellished+tops'>embellished tops</a></small></div></div>Holly Brookhyserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14787711696052533908noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109104624726683091.post-71457514650793000112012-06-09T18:54:00.001-07:002012-06-09T18:54:32.308-07:00blue gingham accessorized<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><div style='width:500px;margin:0 auto'><div style='position:relative;'><a href='http://www.polyvore.com/blue_gingham_accessorized/set?.embedder=2268971&.svc=blogger&id=50621744'><img force='1' border='0' height='782' title='blue gingham accessorized' src='http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/lsCyaveZ3Dp6GOX4sgXTg/cid/50621744/id/BfN1n3k7TIaX6YoPG4OM_g/size/c500x782.jpg' alt='blue gingham accessorized' width='500'/></a></div></div><br/><div style='text-align:center'><small><a href='http://www.polyvore.com/blue_gingham_accessorized/set?.embedder=2268971&.svc=blogger&id=50621744'>blue gingham accessorized</a> by <a href='http://hollynbrook.polyvore.com/?.embedder=2268971&.svc=blogger'>hollynbrook</a> featuring <a href='http://www.polyvore.com/woven_handbags/shop?query=woven+handbags'>woven handbags</a></small></div></div>Holly Brookhyserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14787711696052533908noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109104624726683091.post-25907495358611965162012-05-31T11:37:00.001-07:002012-07-18T23:48:33.837-07:00Doing what i loveI don't know how you spend your free time, but i love using mine to express my creativity. I feel like during the school year my creative juices are all bottled up and pushed aside. When summer break comes along the creativity flows freely. It also helps that my mind is clear and i have all the time i need to solely devote to one thing. Yesterday i spent hours collage-ing in my little nook. I searched the pages of several magazines looking for just the right images and colors. I cut out the images and would arrange them. Then i would rearrange them until they fit with how i planned. For some people this process would be a hassle, frustrating, purposeless, but for me it is fun, enjoyable, and meaningful. Making collages is my favorite type of art. You get to take other peoples work and create it into your own. It becomes a new piece of art. Yesterdays creative session resulted in a mod podged notebook. Possibly my favorite of all of the ones I've done.<br />

I AM LAME. Once again i have slacked off on these posts. But i think what's worse is that i have worn some really cute outfits and haven't taken pictures of them. Instead i have taken pictures of other random things that have nothing to do with my closet. Yep its a problem. Here is a mish mash of photos from the past few days.<br />

Even though i am not officially done with my B.A. (i still have 2 classes to take) i wanted to walk with my friends and not wait a whole year for the next one. I am so happy with my decision. I got to sit with my friends. A year ago we were preparing to travel in New Zealand for 3 weeks. These girls became family and it was an honor and joy to share in this experience with them. Here are a few photos from that great day.<br />

I suppose i could say i was inspired by bees but that would be a lie too. I really do love my school and am so glad it has good taste in colors.<br />

<i>Yes i know i am making weird faces and that the photo quality is crummy. Just look past it and see the clothes not the person wearing them.</i> I really like how this outfit came together. I was hesitant to wear such a bold color. I think the key is balancing the bright with a neutral. Since i love layering it made sense to wear a chambray shirt under my sweater, not to mention it makes the outfit a little more interesting. If you hadn't noticed my wardrobe is full of basics and i have no problem mixing them over and over.</div>Holly Brookhyserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14787711696052533908noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109104624726683091.post-39681550348576890122012-05-09T15:10:00.000-07:002012-05-09T15:10:02.793-07:00Blue Gingham with Grey and Mint<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Today it was a challenge to find shoes that didn't have a back on them so that my heels wouldn't be damaged further. Well aside from flip flops it was a lost cause. I sported band aids and the comfiest flats i have. Besides having the band aids start to unstick and roll and then stick to the inside of my shoe, the band aid fix was a success. </div>

On a very happy note, I got to sleep in today. I would normally have class at 8 but my first 2 classes were for make up exams. I didn't have any to make up so i didn't have to come. Instead of being in class at 8, i was just waking up. I didn't have to leave the house until 10:20 which meant plenty of time to enjoy my coffee, change my outfit 3 times, and redo my hair twice. No this is not typical. I normally don't spend much time getting ready. It was actually really annoying to have time to analyze how i looked before i left the house.</div>Holly Brookhyserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14787711696052533908noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109104624726683091.post-64492912318002014732012-05-08T12:21:00.004-07:002012-05-08T14:20:56.964-07:00These shoes weren't meant for walking<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Story time</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This morning i had the brilliant idea of wearing my <a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=81234&vid=1&pid=897799&scid=897799002">old navy sandals</a> to class. (They looked really cute with my outfit) So I was running a little late and then had to talk to a neighbor, which put me even further behind. I decided to make up time by walking extra fast to the bus stop. BAD IDEA. By the time i made it to the bus stop my heels were killing me. I looked down at them and saw the lovely color red. My feet decided to skip the blister phase and went straight to destruction of skin. Lucky me. I got to spend the next couple of hours in pain while my sandal rubbed the open wound. lovely, i know. I must have looked ridiculous limping and shuffling around campus. I tried to minimize the pain before i went back home. I learned that wet toilet paper as a buffer between skin and a shoe does not work. It completely fell apart and started falling out of my shoe as i was walking. Another ridiculous moment. I sucked up the pain for a while longer. When i got off the bus i gave up on shoes and decided to walk home barefoot. Yet again i am sure i looked ridiculous. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now i know that some shoes are not made for walking. Don't get me wrong, i love these sandals. I just can't wear them when i have to walk a lot. Lesson learned.</div>

My favorite way to put together an outfit is by combining basics. This outfit was no exception. Simplicity is best and adding a few accessories really completes an otherwise boring outfit. My go to accessories are a necklace, belt, and cute shoes.Holly Brookhyserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14787711696052533908noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109104624726683091.post-12986422620316308022012-05-04T12:18:00.000-07:002012-05-04T19:29:35.612-07:00Substitute for photosIt has been a very interesting week. Because of all the craziness i never got around to taking pictures of my outfits. In leu of photos i used polyvore to create my outfits. They aren't exactly what i wore but they will give you an idea of what they looked like. Enjoy the slideshow and feel free to go over to <a href="http://hollynbrook.polyvore.com/">polyvore</a> to see where these items are from.<br />

Oh just so you know i don't pay over $40 for any single item. So if you go to polyvore and the price is high, it isn't the actual item i wore.<br />
<br />
What i actually wore:<br />
Monday...Blazer: Charlotte Russe, Necklace: Forever 21<br />
Tuesday Morning...Blazer: Charlotte Russe, Dress: Old Navy, Shoes (were black not bronze)<br />
Tuesday Night... Completely Accurate<br />
Wednesday...Sweater: Old Navy (and had a flower detail), Blouse: Macys (had cap sleeve and belted waist)<br />
Thursday...Sweater: Target Mossimo, Tshirt: Target, Necklace: Gift (and i know it didn't cost as much as the one shown)</div>Holly Brookhyserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14787711696052533908noreply@blogger.com0
