Layers

This is my outfit from yesterday. The weather hasn't been my favorite the last few days (rainy kind of cold considering its May), so I dressed accordingly. I wore two scarves (one is the black Alexander McQueen skull scarf that I got in Italy a couple summers ago, and the other is a blue fake pashmina from the streets of new york). I also wore my black zipper zara dress (can't see it so much in the pictures but I quite like it) and a new H&M long sweater that I got for $5, yes! I also wore sheer vintage tights and my brown beat up ankle boots. One of the best parts, i think are the two buns on my head (very minnie mouse/subtle Luella runway from about a year ago.)

white|black






Today my outfit was all black and white. I really wanted to wear my new black and white knit beanie hat from H&M ($3) before the weather would be too hot to permit me to do so without being an idiot. i decided to play off the black and white with the rest of my outfit.
Puff sleeve white blouse: marc jacobs
black bandage u neck dress: american apparel
white keds


So many pretty things I want to get...

pink+black= *heart*

I declared my love for the color pink a few weeks back in a post dedicated to all my pink treasures and today I decided to take my pink jeans from H&M for a little test drive. I decided to pair them with my omnipresent black flat motorcycle boots (I really do have other shoes, but for some reason these don't want to come off my feet...) I also wore this new sweater top I have which is black knit and has fringes coming off both sleeves. Grey high socks ofcourse...

alice

I love Alice in Wonderland and kind of have a thing for the color blue which is becoming more and more apparent. When I saw this skirt in H&M I loved it and can't help but think now that my attraction to it might have something to do with Alice...

Hmm...


Here are a couple recent outfits pictures (I've been feeling kind of stressed and extremely exhausted from all this stuff from school recently...only a few weeks until its over, though!) My hair has also been bugging me A LOT recently...ugh. I love these socks though (although unclear in the picture, theyre a really nice shade of purple) and I got a zillion pairs of socks from We Love Colors (LOVE THEM!) They're so fun and I can't wait to be in a better and more creative mood to pair them with fun dresses, short
s, platform.
Here's an extra picture from yesterday and the gorgeous cherry blossoms!

Black Lace

So today I felt like wearing my new black lace top from H&M and decided to pair it with more lacy and feminine elements (the lacy tights, bow tie belt, and big flower in my hair). That's all for now!
