Forgive me for my absence!

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Hey guys, I'm back again. ;) With the official start of spring (Though it's feeling more like summer here!) I've honestly just been super relaxed regarding my wardrobe. The shirt is just something I picked up on sale the other day while getting my spring/summer basics at Old Navy. It was like, 5 dollars, which I thought was pretty awesome. :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> My boyfriend and I were are the local secondhand shop this past Saturday, and he bought me this hat. It reminds me of these bizarre party sunglasses I used to have, with chrome Jack Daniels Logos stamped on either eye. I miss those, hahaha. :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Hopefully with sun staying up longer, I'll be able to post more often soon, because I miss blogging. I'd like to thank all of my followers for sticking around, too. I really appreciate it!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Hey guys! This look is super vintage, and <b>definitely inspired by fashion from different time periods</b>. In fact, I think <i>it implies a little androgyny</i> as well - despite the floral.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I decided to throw in the suitcase based on emotional reasons rather than practical ones. I'm not going anywhere just yet, but I'm expecting to move in with my <i>currently</i> long distance boyfriend in a few months; and as excited as I am about that, I'm stressed.<b> Do you ever feel like you have just way too much going on in your life</b>? I know I do. I <i>don't always mind</i> being busy, but I have <i>such high expectations </i>of what I'm capable of achieving sometimes, and<b> it seems too easy</b> to let something fall by the wayside in order<b> to catch up with myself</b>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">A quick update -<b> my laptop is going to have to be completely reformatted</b> (<i>which is basically a nerdy way of saying "everything needs to be removed from the hard drive</i>) which means I won't be getting it back for another week or so. In the meantime, I'll keep doing what I'm doing. It's not sooo bad. :P</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Also,<b> I'll be sewing and designing</b> away! <b>I've decided to put up some handmade items on Etsy</b> for new camera funding (among, well, life expenses. Haha.)<b> So I'll let you know when that gets rolling</b>. Any support is extremely appreciated!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">That's all for now. See you next time. :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

I've posted 3 days in a row, Holy Smokes! I've been really missing blogging since the camera/laptop massacre -<b> I'm going to try and get it</b> (<b>the laptop</b>) <b>fixed this weekend, so keep your fingers crossed for me, guys</b>!<br />
<br />
As soon as I have regular internet access again, <b>I'm going to get my Etsy and/or Ebay accounts set up</b>. I'll be <b>selling some of the pieces I've featured in my look posts</b>, as well as (<i>possibly</i>) <b>some limited edition, Handmade by Clovebud items</b>. ;) <b>The proceeds will be going towards replacing my camera</b>. Woohoo!<br />
<br />
Also, I feel really guilty for not commenting/following/tweeting, etc as much as I usually do. I appreciate all of the comments, followers, and fans and I'm sorry guys. I hope you can understand my recent absence from the blogosphere!<b> I still read every bit of feedback from you all, and every comment or new fan still brightens my day</b>. :)<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">Thanks for reading, and 'til next time...</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>x</b>o<b>x</b>o, Clovebud.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>Little Red Backpack</strong> (<strong>Eco Trend</strong>, from <strong>Goodwill</strong>)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>Oversized Sweater</strong> (<strong>Denim & Co</strong>)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>High Waist Shorts</strong> (<strong>Rampage</strong>)</div><div style="text-align: center;">"<strong>Huette</strong>"<strong> Wedge Ankle Booties </strong>(<strong><a href="http://kelsidagger.com/" target="_blank">Kelsi Dagger</a></strong>)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I was mad stoked to pick up this backpack last time I was at the Goodwill - I've been looking for one forever! On my frame (<strong>average height, super lanky</strong>) most backpacks look oversized and disproportionate on me. This one is just right - also, it's red! A perfect accessory for someone <em>who's nearly constantly</em> <strong>clad in head to toe in neutrals</strong> and <strong>bright lip colours</strong>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">The <strong>sweater is also from the Goodwill</strong> and <em>reeeally comfy</em>, which is<strong> perfect</strong> for Wednesdays. (Ugh, <em>Wednesdays</em>. :l )</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">These are<strong> the boots I mentioned in </strong><strong>yesterday's post</strong>- are they not amazing? Like I said, <em>they aren't nearly as hard to walk in as you'd think.</em></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">That's all for now. Stay tuned, loves :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<b>So this is actually what I wore on Sunday</b>(yesterday), but I didn't get a chance to post about it until today. This hoodie is something I got on a trip a couple years ago, and it used to be really huge but it shrunk in the dryer! It's kind of <b>a cropped hoodie</b> now because it's so wide, but I like it better now. ;) Super cozy! I didn't wear much makeup yesterday either as I was just running out to pick up some groceries, but <b>a fedora, sunglasses and a little lipstick</b> always does the trick!</div>

So anyways, I'm sure you might expect me to blog about <u><b>New York Fashion Week Fall 2012 </b>Trends</u>, but I'd honestly say that <a href="http://www.oliviapalermo.com/#" target="_blank">Olivia Palermo's Blog</a> does a better job of covering that than I or anybody else probably could. ;)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What I will say is that I'm feeling mad excited for the summer! <b>It's been a long and dragging winter here is Chicago</b>, and I'm done with it to tell you the truth. Also, while one piece bathing suits are <b>Classic Vogue</b> and rarely go out of style, I know that this summer is going to be <i>all about bikinis</i>, and I'm pretty pumped to start posting looks incorporating them in the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned!</div>

So I was feeling some serious blogging withdrawl, and figure I'd get a couple photos up here regardless of quality. However, I'm thinking about putting some things up on ebay towards a new camera, but we'll see how it goes.<br />
<br />
I jst picked up the shorts and top from <b>TJ Maxx</b>, and I'm seriously loving this intense colour combo. Green and blue tend to be <i>part of my palette</i> in general, but in these unexpected shades (the neon paired with the darker top), this outfit works surprisingly well for me.<br />
<br />
For Valentines day I'm not sure I'll dress up much. I celebrated V-Day early over the weekend, due to the semi-long-distance nature of my relationship. We went to this really cute little brunch place called the <a href="http://honeycafe.net/" target="_blank">Honey Cafe</a>. If any of you guys ever find yourselves in <b>Downtown Glen Ellyn </b>or the general <u>West Chicagoland Area</u>, I highly reccommend that you check it out! They've got some really great <i>Artisan type food</i> as well as <b>Vegan and Gluten Free options</b>, and although they're occassionally packed, it's worth the wait. ;)<br />

Hey guys, I'm about to leave for the weekend but I wanted to let you know that<b> I didn't disappear</b> or anything. ;) <b>The camera I've been using no longer works</b>! I have a couple other ones, but <u>the quality is not nearly as good</u>. I'll try and get this sorted out ASAP, but in the mean time<b> I'll continue to post</b> - either without photos, or slightly lower quality ones that won't be posted to lookbook, etc. Hopefully I can get this figured out within the week.<br />
<br />
Thanks everyone :)<br />

Headscarf (vintage)<br />
Army Jacket (Clio)<br />
Sweater (H&M)<br />
Planner (Hato Hasi)<br />
Shorts (Bongo, cutoffs)<br />
Creepers (Demonia)<br />
<br />
<br />
Okay, so remember when I mentioned my "<a href="http://clovebud.blogspot.com/2012/01/12512-one-thing-about-forsythia.html" target="_blank">Inner Gypsy Fighter Pilot</a>" a week or so ago? Well, there you have it. ;) This photo is actually from a couple days after that post; I just never got around to putting it up, and figured it was better to post it later anyway.<br />
<br />
This beige sweater is still one of my favorite things ever - the way it fits is definitely a little strange and takes getting used to, but it's <i>very flattering on tall, thin builds</i>. (It's like an anti-<b>dolman sleeve</b>, ahaha) And as I've mentioned a few times before, I got a big box of vintage scarves/hair accessories from my grandmother when I started growing out my <b>pixie crop haircut</b>, which is where the scarf is from.<br />
<br />
I'm still tweaking around with my layout, <b>but it'll be very user friendly</b> once it's all finished and clean, so stay tuned and thanks for listening. ;)<br />

<br />

I was just messing around with piping the frosting to see if I could come up with something cute for Valentine's day. Those are supposed to be hearts (hahaha) and the bottom one is just some sort of cross hatch pattern.<br />
<br />
I'll get an outfit post tomorrow; stay tuned and see you next time. :)<br />

Do I look tired? Because <b>I'm tired</b>. <br />
<br />
<br />
Also, I had to stop myself from calling this "<u>Anarchy and and Fitch</u>", har har har. <br />
<br />
It's been a long week, and I'm excited to see the <i>semi-long-distance</i> boyfriend again tonight! Maybe I'll finish the drawing I started last week. ;)<br />
<br />
So, this skirt is actually from last summer's clothes, but none of the local secondhand shops wanted to take it for some reason. It's been a long time since I've worn a<b> maxi skirt</b>, so I figured I'd give it a go. Honestly, this is a pretty lazy comfy outfit for me - and my outfits are usually that way to begin with! <br />
<br />
Anyways, I'm sort of caught up (I've got to pack for the weekend!) but I also wanted to note that <b>I've officially been growing my pixie out for a year</b>. :) Unfortunately, I've got the "dog ears" thing going on with my bangs, and it looks awful. It's kind of funny, though; not sure if <b>you've ever grown out a pixie cut</b>, but it's a process that involves a lot of laughing and crying.<br />
<br />
I figured I'd throw some photos up for you guys, because I just started this blog so you have no idea what types of crazy things I've done with my hair. :)<br />
<br />
A little bit before the pixie cut:<br />

Charoite Pendant (a gift from my mom)<br />

Platform Mary Janes (secondhand)<br />
<br />
So as you might've read on my <a href="http://twitter.com/cl0vebud" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, I found a bunch of my old jewelry while doing some early spring cleaning yesterday; I'm so excited to start wearing it all again! The two necklaces here (as well as a couple of other things I'll bring out eventually) were hiding in an old Franco Sarto bag under my bed. I had no idea the bag was there in the first place!<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 21px;">Also, I was going to wear my brown boots but they looked a bit off; then I remembered that my poor maryjanes had been collecting dust in the back of my closet, so I broke those out too. Feelin' pretty fly, if I do say so myself. ;)</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 21px;"> </span> <br />
<br />
Anyway, I took my own photos today, because my brother (who usually takes them) wasn't available. I think I like the way they turned out, although I wish my camera would focus properly for me! When I do them myself, I usually end up getting more creative shots - however, it also usually takes much longer, and unfortunately I don't always have time.<br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The <b>triangle Charoite pendant</b> is one of two gemstone pendants that were gifts from my mother. Growing up, I learned a lot of metaphysical philosophy because my mom is pretty big into <u>Astrology</u>, <u>Wicca</u> and <u>New Age Culture</u>. </span></span><b style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 21px;">Charoite </b><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 21px;">is primarily a healing gemstone. At the time, I was going through a lot of pain in my life, so when my mother gave me the pendant (along with a bit of information on it) I was very thankful. I'm not as superstitious as she is, but I like to believe that it helps me in times of need. :)</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Also, this stone promotes creativity, confidence, and self expression - totally relevent to fashion! That, and the fact that it's such a gorgeous lavender colour that you could probably wear with anything.</span></span><br />
<span style="line-height: 21px;"><br />
</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://store.higherheart.com/shopimages/products/normal/Charoite-palmstone.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="233" src="http://store.higherheart.com/shopimages/products/normal/Charoite-palmstone.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"> According to </span></span><a href="http://astrobix.com/">Astrobix</a>:<span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 21px;"> </span><br />
<br />
Firstly, it heals the person’s body and mind and supplies it with more energy thereafter. Secondly, it is the right gemstone for developing self-expression. Thirdly, it inspires the person to change and gives the ability to come out of fear. <br />
Fourthly, it develops the call of the soul of that individual. Fifthly, if you are surrounded by compulsion and eagerness then this gemstone helps to solve them. Sixthly, it helps to open up the spiritual expression of the individual and controls the thoughts. Seventhly, in case you get too tired, this gemstone fills you with energy and helps you to keep on going and lastly, it keeps you away from negative energies and keeps your environment pure and healthy.<br />

Happy Monday! I like Mondays, they feel fresh and like new beginnings. :) However, that doesn't change the fact that I was lost and confused for the majority of the day - I'm always running around and I sometimes feel that I never get anything done! <br />
<br />
One thing that I am pretty excited about is a possible collaboration I have in the works! I won't spill the beans quite yet, but stay tuned. ;) <br />

Distressed skinnies (Levi's, "<b>too superlow</b>")<br />
Platform Boots (Goodwill)<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #454545; line-height: 21px;">I like my Sunday super cozy, and there's nothing more comfortable in my closet than this oversized to-the-max sweater! :) </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #454545; font-family: inherit; line-height: 21px;">The scarf came in a box with other scarves and vintage hair accessories as a gift from my grandmother, and this has become one of my favorite vintage pieces. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #454545; line-height: 21px;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Although I'd love to participate in the pastels trend, I've been sticking to my tried and true jewel tones. I'm having trouble finding one that doesn't wash me out. :l Anybody have any suggestions?</span> <br />
</span><br />
Anyway, I'm back home again after spending a wonderful weekend with the semi-long-distance DBF, and although I'm glad to be back to my blogging and such, I always miss him way too soon. :( I'm sure a lot of you have it worse than us because we're only about 40 miles apart at the moment, but it's still tough. Ah, well - Distance makes the heart grow fonder, eh? ;) <br />
<br />
We watched <u>Up in the Air</u> which is super cute (directed by <b>Jason Reitman</b>,<b> </b>who also directed Juno) and <u>Tropic Thunder</u>, which I found to be surprisingly very funny. I'd recommend them both, although if you're not a fan of crude humor or if you're easily offended, Tropic Thunder is probably not for you. (I admit, I was offended by some of the humor!)<br />
<br />
On Saturday, I started to draw which I don't usually do (and am not very good at, but progress, not perfection. ;D). It's on a big poster board and it's not finished yet, but I'm impressed with it thus far and wanted to share! Keep in mind that I didn't bring my camera, so I took it with my cell phone; photo quality is sub par.<br />

It's supposed to be an old gnarly tree in front of a guitar fence. I'll have to post more photos when it's finished!<br />

Velvet Plaid Shirt (<b>Jones New York</b>)<br />
Dress (<b>BCBG</b>)<br />
Platform Boots (<b>Goodwill</b>)<br />
<br />
So today I wanted to keep it pretty comfy and casual, but I do like to dress up a little bit on Fridays; I figured this dress would be a happy medium :) I haven't worn my velvet plaid shirt in a while, and it was about time I brought it out again!<br />
<br />
I deep conditioned my hair last night, and I can really tell the difference. It's so soft and shiny and way less tangled than it's been in at least a month - I've been slacking something awful on doing deep treatments lately. <b>If anybody's interested in trying something new for their hair, it's really a simple recipe</b>!<br />
<br />
<u><b>Clovebud's Deep Hair Conditioner Recipe</b></u><br />
<br />
3 parts <b>coconut oil </b>(unrefined, preferably)<br />
1 part <b>hemp oil</b> (you can sub olive oil, but I recommend the hemp!)<br />
1/2 part <b>olive oil</b><br />
1 drop <b>rosemary oil</b><br />
<br />
combine oils, and nuke in the microwave for about 10 seconds until the coconut oil is melted. Swish together or stir - you don't need a lot! I usually only use about one teaspoon <b>coconut oil</b> (1/3 teaspoon <b>hemp</b>, etc) but if you've got<u> longer or thicker hair</u> I'd double that. <i>Any unused oil can be kept in the fridge for probably at least 2 months if you like</i>.<br />
<br />
I just brush my hair back into a ponytail (If you've had one in already, it's good to take it out and brush to remove shed hairs) and then I apply the oil liberally to the ends. (Sometimes I'll just dip the tail end into the oil and it soaks up the whole batch if it's that dry!) I like to sleep with it in, and the next morning wash out with shampoo and conditioner. If you don't want to do that, and hour or two should suffice. :)<br />
<br />
Anyways, I'm going to stay with my <i>semi-long-distance</i> boyfriend for the weekend, and it's time to pack. See you next time :D<br />
<br />

Beanie (F21)<br />
Scarf (secondhand)<br />
Denim Jacket (Abercrombie & Fitch, Vintage)<br />
Velvet Dress (Secondhand)<br />
Boots (Goodwill)<br />
<br />
So the title of today's post comes from <b>Forsythia</b> by <b>Veruca Salt</b>. It's a song off of their album <u>American Thighs</u>, which I adore. Other than that, it's really just entirely unrelated to the outfit; however, if you're into grunge punk girl power music, I'd highly reccommend you check them out!<br />
<br />
Anyways, this is one of my more relaxed, weekend/running errand type get-ups. No themes, no channelling to my inner gypsy beatnik fighter pilot (although that's actually a pretty sick idea.) The jacket is really becoming one of my signature pieces - <b>Abercrombie vintage jackets</b> are super durable and fit very well. I picked this scarf up on a whim last year, and I really like the way it pairs with the colour in these boots. Nifty thrifty. :)<br />

Let's call this a "Clovebud: After Dark" or a "Clovebud: Off Duty" post. ;) Truth is, I've been putting a lot of thought into my (future) posts as of late - particularly about <b>how to create a more interesting and involving blog</b>, and decided to launch a self intervention.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Hey, my name is Clovebud and <b>I'm addicted to boring photo blogging</b>. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
It's awful - especially because I've already got a <a href="http://clovebud.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">Tumblr</a> as well as a <a href="http://pinterest.com/clovebud" target="_blank">Pinterest</a>. What is this insane compulsion I face to post photos without even a paragraph of text? I mean, let's face it - I'm 20 years old and have copious amounts of free time opposed to a lot of other people, so what I've been doing is essentially just lazy, passive blogging. I've got no excuse, either - on and off, I've been blogging with various platforms since age 12.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">However, <i>I promise that this will end</i>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> Truth is, I've made the common mistake of <b>reading too much into successful blogging</b>. I've become afraid to put myself out there and be original on my posts, which is ludicrous when you think about how eccentric my outfits can be. Not that I necessarily want to be <i>too</i> out there, but<b> nobody likes a pretentious fashion blogger</b>. Also, I think that certain outfits can lose a great deal of their appeal without a proper explanation.<br />
<br />
For example, my last outfit post wold have made much more sense if I had mentioned that I was channeling my inner Southwestern Neo-goth that day, Right? (Or perhaps not, but to each their own. ;D)<br />
<br />
So anyways, this post is just a little something for my fellow <b>n00b bloggers</b> as well as myself to let you know that I fully support anybody else who's trying to get their voice out into the vast sea of fashion media. Also, It's something like 3:30am and I'm really too exhausted to have inhibitions.<br />
<br />
That's my que. See you next time :)<br />

Bomber Jacket (F21)<br />
Denim Shirt (H&M)<br />
Circle Skirt (A'gaci, secondhand)<br />
<br />
I was really wary about adding accessories to this look, because the silhouette is really the star of the show and I felt that jewelery or scarves would be too distracting. I'm surprised at how easy it is to fit these wedge booties into my wardrobe! Very soon I'll be incorporating a lot more pastels (which I love, miss, and are trending like mad for the Spring 2012 Season) and prints, as well as a few small DIY features - So stay tuned!<br />

coat (free people)<br />
lace up shorts (rampage)<br />
wedge boots (kelsi dagger)<br />
<br />
These short are probably one of my favorite pairs, if not one of my favorite items in general. I think the lace up fly is really cute and edgy, and they fit like a glove :)<br />
<br />
The boots were a Christmas gift, and I'd totally forgotten I had them in my closet until today! I might DIY them - Any ideas? <br />
