I stop at the driveway, adjusting my pink miniskirt over my black sparkle leggings. I may not have had my boots any longer, but the cute little patent leather flats with the giant gems on the toes Mom got me in sympathy for the loss would do just fine. They make my feet look slender and adorable and I love the way the big jewel sparkles when I walk, catching the light.
Two girls brush past me on the way by, one looking me up and down with a grin.
"Nice sweater." Her friend laughs and I grin back. I don't know her and figure she must be from another school, so I wave.
"Thanks!" I love it, too, with the brushed cat face on the sleeve and giant paw prints on the back. My pale pink tank top finishes off the outfit, though I wish I'd had more time to trim my bangs. I've been neglecting them
