104; Unplug the Jukebox











Top: c/o ROMWE • Leggings: local small biz Modelo • Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell Stevie • Earrings: Francesca's



Easiest outfit possible. Oversized shirt, and leggings. I feel like I'm cheating some sort of system, but it just works. (Especially if you're petite like me. IRL, being the height of a child, this looks especially ridic.) I love clothes for shapes and proportions, and one of my favourite things to do is to wear something comically oversized on top with something form fitting for the legs. And, duh, I love doing this even more when there's visual-impairing neons involved. It's like the 80s glam and 90s grunge had some horrible, wonderful child.

I really love ROMWE for catering to such awesome styles, btdubs. Plus their printed leggings are the bomb. They make these outfits just TOO easy to do.

99; Optical Sedative












Top, bra, skirt: Pac Sun ☯ Shoes + vintage ear cuff: eBay ☯ Purse: Hot Topic ☯ Coin belt and bone carved bracelet: thrifted ☯ Mahina necklace and Poison earrings: c/o Vanessa Mooney





That Hello Kitty ring is actually a lip gloss ring. I have six of these, in different colours. What is my life.

So yeah, the bulk of this outfit is Pac Sun, everything but the bra from clearance, all bought in the same shopping trip. Bizarre, right? This skirt is a dream; I typically despise denim pencil skirts (or just denim skirts in general) but I tried this in the charcoal variety and was on the fence about it. Tried it again later on despite the fact that they only had blue stone wash, and liked it WAY more. It kind of goes with EVERYTHING. Sweater? Sure. Oversized muscle tee? You bet. Tucked-in long sleeve button up? No problem. I wish every skirt was so perfect.

Also, my DIY bindi business occurred after one serious Sailor Moon nostalgia trip. I now have every single episode in original Japanese subtitled on Kathryn's laptop. Is that weird? Or is it weirder that the crescent moon is a cheap-o kid's sticker earring I won in a set at an arcade in Cape Cod? I have smiley face ones, too. You'll see.
