Kiss Me


Band Tee- Vintage
Oversized Denim Jacket- Vintage
Skirt- Forever 21
Shoes- H&M
Hat- Zara
Evil Eye Charm Bracelets- Jem Bracelets

So recently, I've been getting into wearing hats a lot more than usual because for some reason it just feels natural to grab for a hat in the mornings before heading out for my daily activities. In this post, I'm wearing one of my most recent purchases from Zara.... it's this beret in faux fur. I'm really not a big fan of fur or faux fur however I'll wear faux fur in small places of my outfit but never as a dominate feature. This look compared to yesterdays are two complete oppostites, as the look in this post is a lot more of my usual grunge style because I can't get enough of band tees like "Kiss", paired with a 90s acid wash jacket and a long flowy maxi skirt to add a little feminine quality to the overall appearance of this look.

Weapon Of Choice


Sheer Floral Top- 
Teen Dream Denim Jumper- Nasty Gal
Oversized Acid Wash Denim Jacket- Thrift
Shoes- Jeffrey Campbell Coltrane (Karmaloop)

I swore off from ever wearing any sort of overall ever again because it's not very comfortable to wear to me and it's also this huge trend right now which kind of makes me a litttle sick of seeing them however,  I have to say, the only pair of overall that I haven't sold to the thrift store yet is this really nice denim overall skirt which I absolutely adore! To break up the spaces of the blue of the overall, I added a dark skinny belt at the waist. Also, I decided to take a shot at a "denim on denim" look by wearing my new favourite acid washed jacket, which played as a contrasting shades of denim, complements the shade of the overall...I'm so happy it didnt come out looking like one huge clash of "denim in the circus" hahaha.  I chose to add a bright pop of red print against the shades of blue to lighten up the look a little and to give a more day time casual feel to the whole look.

Smells Like Teen Spirit


Top- FCUK
Dark Acid Skater Skirt- Nasty Gal
Oversized Acid Wash Denim Jacket- Thrift
Shoes- T.U.K Creepers (Journeys)

You all know how much I love my 90s grunge looks and even though my two previous posts were two different kind of styles , it just shows how mixed up and diverse my style can be. In this post, I'm wearing one of my newest thrift finds, which I can't seem to take off! This acid light washed denim jacket is my new found love and it's literally one of the most comfortable jackets I've ever owned. There is just something so special and cool about oversized jackets that you can just drown into but still look very cool and effortless. I also wore very loose fitting clothes with this jacket because during the summer, I don't like to feel my clothes sticking onto my body, so its either a loose graphic tee and shorts , a sheer light-weight top with a skater skirt or lightweight summer dresses here and there. For this look, I went with this really cool top from French Connection UK that I've had for sometime now but wasn't sure what I'd want to style it with because it's one of those tops that can be transitioned from day to night depending on what you choose to wear it with. The bead work that went into this top is amazing and really intricately placed and I think that's what attracted me the most to it. For some contrast I decided to add another acid wash tone into the outfit combination through my skirt but, I opted for a more darker tone so that the denim jacket could make the rest of the outfit pop.

White Noise


Super Hero Muscle Tee- Milky Way Clothing (Necessary Clothing)
Faux Leather Circle Skirt- Nasty Gal
Shoes- T.U.K Creepers (Journeys)
DIY Muscle Blouse
White Sunnies- Zero UV
Necklace- Street Fair
Tattoo Choker- The Cobra Shop

So you know how much I love wearing black and white looks and this was a totally unplanned black and white look I came up with last minute after being unable to find anything to wear that day. I've had this long sleeve white blouse with the faux leather collar for the longest time and I believe I only wore it once on the blog (Previous Post) and I didn't really like the fit of the sleeves at all. It was big and no matter how much I'd ironed it, it would still get so crushed really easily because it was always  wobbling all over the place so, because of that, it's been sitting in my closet ever since up until the day I decided to take a scissor and chop the sleeves off like I do with most of my tops with sleeve hahaha I'm evil. I have to say, I like the very imperfection of the way the sleeves were cut which gives it a very grunge feeling. I didn't want to button it up because I wanted to add something graphic underneath so what better way to do that, than to wear my super hero tee! To tight the look together, I wore my faux leather skirt to match the leather collar on the blouse. In other news, Google Reader is closing so I'd love if you could follow me on BLOGLOVIN please...I'm so appreciative of all the readers I've gained and I wouldn't want to lose you. Thank you!
