Tuesday, August 28, 2018 • BDG, Disney, Marine Layer, Missoma, OOTD, Urban Outfitters, Vans, World Market
Would you believe me if I told you that this is not my favorite t-shirt and jeans look? I picked up this Marine Layer tee as it was being discontinued, and while it's not bad, do you know what's better than a soft black t-shirt? A soft white t-shirt (which sounds like I'm being accidentally racist but in reality I just think it makes the color of my skin pop more).
In other news when I went to see my hair stylist last month we went with a darker brown with red undertones because I'd like to phase the red out (it's very high maintenance and I'm sick of leaking color everywhere) but you know what I see here? RED red hair, which probably means I'm f*cked cause I'm not going to chop it all off and start over.

My Time
Tuesday, August 21, 2018 • Bulletin, Gap, LOFT, Missoma, Neiman Marcus Last Call, OOTD, Via Spiga
Really this outfit started with the shirt. A shirt I immediately needed to have as soon as I saw it in Bulletin, so I'm sorry it took me so long to feature it here.
I think a lot of our lives could be improved by "reclaiming our time" though I'm not particularly good at it myself. Maybe I could add it to "give less f*cks" and keep my fingers crossed that I get better at both.

a maxi world
Tuesday, August 7, 2018 • Anthropologie, LOFT, Me Two Designs, Me2, MeTwo, Missoma, OOTD, Seychelles, Tysons Corner, World Market
Sometimes a print or a shape alone is enough to get me to walk into a new-to-me store, and that's exactly what happened with Me Two Designs. I had never seen the storefront before in Tyson's, but I loved the combination of more modern shapes with the traditional African print. The sizing is a little strange - this large fit perfectly, but others weren't going over my hips or boobs without divine intervention - but it's definitely a label I'd like to explore more in the future.
Oh, and if you're taller than me this dress would probably be perfect for you to wear with flat sandals, I had to hem about 3" off the bottom.

BlerDCon 2018: The Costumes
Thursday, August 2, 2018 • blerdcon, punk ms frizzle, warrior princess daisy
On the Saturday of BlerDCon I managed to wander by the mecca of any fashion/costume blogger: a wall mural. I feel like maybe it was the universe's way of saying "good job on the McDonald's decision", since before that moment I hadn't really decided where Jessy and I would be taking pics.
First up is also my first foray into the world of craft foam armor, as Warrior Princess Daisy! Instead of waiting for Luigi - or Mario - to do the saving, she's out kicking Bowser butt and moving on to the next castle looking for more.
Is it perfect? Or the internet's best example of craft foam armor? No to both, but it's done and I don't feel completely embarrassed wearing it, so let's just call it a win, lol. I'm also excited to wear it with my BFF's coordinating Princess Peach at DragonCon! Though I feel like I need to work on my "fierce" poses....hmmm....
You know what doesn't need to be AS fierce? Punk Ms. Frizzle, that's who! This costume was born out of my love of the books combined with my desire for a comfier costume option, lol, so I'm pretty pleased with it. At DragonCon my plan is to wear this with my natural curls, but since my hair had already been straightened for BlerDCon I just went with it.
