three days and two and a half hours!

sorry i've been m.i.a.! silly life stuff gets in my way sometimes.

i took most of this weekend to rest up and focus on a final idea for one of my classes, even though my room needs to be cleaned so badly it's stupid. it's been raining complete cats and dogs, so as soon as it lightened up today, i took my camera outside to finally get some shots outdoors. i'll get more soon, i promise. i feel like i've been slacking on that. i've been wanting to get a lot more things done on this blog. but more good stuff to come soon!

here's just a basic outfit for the chilly day. as much as my hand moves for dresses and skirts, pairing tights and shorts forever captures the heart. 

necklace, etsy / crop tee, american apparel / flannel, mom's / jacket, bycorpus (gift) / shorts, unif / tights / socks, land's end / wedges, thrift

here's a little music i just found by way of one of my newer friends. it's so good to have tunes to work to that have no lyrics. between classical and this, i get things DONE.

i'll be back in the midwest for thanksgiving in three days and two and a half hours, and i'm taking my cameras! so stay tuned!

music: toadstool -para one

pop.

i don't like neon. i don't like it, i don't like it, i don't i don't i don't. i've always stuck my nose up at neon colors on most garments, finding them too sports-chic for my style, so when i found this skirt, i was totally confused at the fact that i was in love. i put up excuses, like maybe the kitsch of the hawaiian print was what made me put up with the neon or something, but there's no getting past it... i like the brightness of the yellow, blue, and green against the black. it's a huge contrast to my mainly-monochromatic wardrobe, and besides, i so wanted prints in my life. this skirt's also a skater skirt, it's high-waisted, it's a mini, it's pretty-ugly, and it FITS me... so it checks off a lot of boxes otherwise.

i put the crazy with a lot of black-and-white-- a graphic tee and a blazer-- to sober things a little. i'm an adult, you know. i have to be taken seriously.

blazer, thrift / shirt, vintage / skirt, forever 21 / tights, forever 21 / shoes, demonia (ebay)

also, wearing this thing made me realize that hey, my hair is pink. my hair is neon. so i should probably get over being so stuck up about some clothes and open my eyes. no wonder i get so bored in fashion sometimes.

till next time,
