Outfit of the Day (#2)

Sometimes I throw together outfits in a rush and they turn out, well not very good, but this was a rare occasion when my quick thinking led me to success. This outfit consists of a black, v-neck, long sleeved shirt from Forever 21, an electric green high waisted skirt I found at a thrift shop, black feather earrings, a black and gold ring from Forever 21, a victorian looking purple, green, and gold ring from Jewelmint, black tights, and my favorite purple Dr. Martens. (Sorry there is no full photo of the outfit, but I did the best I could to show each piece.)




Milan Men's Fashion Week

It was just recently Milan Fashion Week for menswear and there were a lot of great collections, but my favorites would have to be Bottega Veneta and Dolce & Gabbana. I loved the grunge-like brightly colored pants, cozy sweaters, and textured blazers in Bottega Veneta's collection and the flashy velvet and sequined blazers in the Dolce & Gabbana collection.

Betsey Johnson




Ever since I saw her on ANTM a few years ago I've been in love with her designs. Betsey Johnson's personality is crazy and it shows through her designs, like these lightning bolt earrings (which I happily own), and her multitude of party dresses, even her stores are decked out in loud patterns and lots of pink. Every time I step into a Betsey Johnson store I have the urge to throw myself a sweet sixteen. Betsey, mission accomplish.

Like A Circus

This miss-matched outfit is one of my new favorites. I really wanted to wear my new H&M blazer and my Urban Renewal high-waisted shorts, from Urban Outfitters, are kind one of my go-to items. The socks were really fun because they created a look that was definitely new for me, but the item that caused the most conversation, was the jacket. People said I resembled a sailor, a referee, a prisoner, and that I should be in the Britney Spears music video for "Circus". I always forget the disability of my peers to simply appreciate fashion when I'm planning my outfits, oh well.

And Don't Forget the Bond Girls



I was recently watching a movie in French class that reminded me of the all the Bond girls. I love how they're a mix of strong and sexy, with their beautiful dresses, long legs, and jaw dropping looks they could seduce any man, and they do it while holding a gun up their dress. Watch out boys, these girls are deadly.
