Floodlights in the Sunlight

What I'm wearing: thrifted chambray shirt, flea market/DIY denim jacket, F21 leather pants, Urban Outfitters velvet platforms, glasses from random 50s shop in Orlando.




This is obviously my "Hey guise, what's up?" face. So... hey guise, what's up?

I'm honestly pretty impressed with  myself, posting twice within a week. How devoted of me!

              Anyways, this is what I dressed up in today, complete with these crazy high-waisted leather pedal pushers that I found in the back of my hellhole--I mean closet--and when I tried them on I freaked out a bit. WHY hadn't I worn these? They were perfect and biker-ish and the high waist was perfect... 

And then I realized it was almost 90 degrees outside.

              And my legs have never been sweatier. So once I got home (after taking these pictures for posterity, of COURSE) I took 'em off and replaced them with pajama pants. But in a little bit I have to hurry off to my night class (LAME!) so I just replaced the leather pants with a black skirt. Still looks okay, but not quite my original intentions!

Oh! And I got my nails done yesterday, for the first time in a year, it seems like!


Forest green toenails? Hey, why not.

  1. Toe-nails are actually super-awesome.

    And yeah, those trousers (wooops pants, you know what I mean) so look pretty, erm, sweaty. Also pretty cool though!

    Glasses + you hair = amazing though.

    Yep, erm, amazing? Sorry, comments are always super inane. :D

    1. Haha it's okay, and thank you! :) Yeah seriously I don't know why I've been so monochrome lately, colors look so cool with my hair color! Eh, I guess once a storm cloud, always a storm cloud.
