Throwback Thursday!

 


Shorts- Pacsun
Shoes- PLNDR 
Glasses- Forever 21


Was digging through some old pictures & found these from last spring or summer. Thought I;d share them with the world, and reminisce. As much as I think I hate Seattle during these cold, rainy winters pictures like these remind me of all the beauty the pacific northwest has to offer.

About A Girl




 Dress- Thrifted
Earring- Papaya
Shoes- Steve Maddens from Ebay
Lipstick- MAC Red



I’m insanely in love with these shoes. The pictures don’t do them much justice, but they’re covered in silver glitter. I snagged them off ebay a couple months ago but haven’t had much chance to wear them until recently. The velour dress was thrifted, and originally a maxi but I decided to cut it into and ultra mini. It got quite a bit of wear during the holiday season. As soon as I went outside to take these pictures I instantly regretted my outfit of choice as it was frikkin cold! I’ve always lived in Washington, but the winters still seem far too cold for me. I’ve been playing around with my clothes trying to find outfits that are both warm and chic. (This was obviously not one of them.) I have to say I do miss shorts season! & if the title of this post had you curious, the overcast day brought to mind Nirvana.

Houses of the Holy








Outfit Details:
Cardigan- Grandmothers Closet
T-shirt- Target 
Leggings- Love Culture



Shot this near the downtown Seattle library the other day, with the fabulous KT ENG. First time I’ve shot with her, but had a great time & hope to do it again. You can check out her blog here.

The cross leggings immediately brought to mind “Houses of the Holy” by Led Zeppelin. They give off real rock n’ roll vibe. And when channeling rock n’ roll I always think it’s best to go with the classics. & speaking of classics, the cardigan was another inheritance from my grandmother, Loretta Mae. I’ve been getting a lot of use out of this cardigan lately; it seems to be a good twist on grunge looks. Which, by the way I have fallen head over heels in love with soft grunge. So expect to see a bit more of it here on the blog.

I’ve been working on a couple gift guides that will be up later this week, so stay tuned!

Target did me well




Dress-Target
Hat- Target
Bracelets- Swap-meet
Moccasins- Nordstrom



In love with this denim dress. Got it a few years ago from Target, but never wore it much until recently. It's late and I've got to head to bed soon (well, admittedly I'm going to watch Olympic gymnastics for a bit first), so not much time to type atm. Did do my midterms today, doing Summer quarter online, so a bit less on my plate now (can't help but the notice metaphors!) & more time for blogging.

You applied the pressure, to have me crystallized.


Outfit Details:
Top & Ring-H&M 
Dress- Redlight Seattle
Earrings& Necklace- Forever 21
Sunglasses- KW
Sandals- Target
Bangles- PAPAYA!


Comfort was key on one of Seattle's summer days. (Yes, we do occasionally get warm and sunny days in Seattle, despite popular belief.) Walked around in the sun for a while, and later went and figure modeled for an art class, something I had not done before. Not as nerve racking as I thought it would be, though staying perfectly still for long periods of time proved to be difficult. After that was done a friend and I headed to japonessa and for happy hour sushi. We had never been, and I have to say I fell in love with the bad boy roll, which was just as delicious when I had the leftovers for breakfast. Happy Wednesday. xoxo.
