i feel like i'm on drugs when i wear these sunnies
i love this dress
i prefer to mend things than replace them
i'm no longer a jeans grrl and i don't know when this happened but it did. i just want to rip them off whenever i am wearing them... i have some really great leggings but i need more. my favorite leggings are becoming sheer on the bum and this is indeed a very sad thing. miracle eye has some really great leggings and i think i'll be placing an order very soon :D
i've decided that i need more crushed velvet, tie dye, metallics & embroidered stuff in my life... and that that will keep my mind off of being human for a bit... until i am at a four way stop and i realize that people are kind of lame.
wearing tunic/bag-goodwill, aa pants cut into shorts/sunnies-ebay, shoes-etsy, socks-sockdreams, stud collar-fitchbace etsy, spacegrrl necklace-gift from sis, rings/bracelets-pamela love & thrifted
i'm on a pretty strict goodwill diet and that suits me just fine. i love walking in and leaving with something i had no idea i wanted. lil things that excite me. some people fear change. i can't help but change all the freak'n time. probably why people fear me. unexpected is home.
and when i don't have enough randomness things get dark in my mind... and then people fear me more. such a damn vicious cycle i am in with humans.
i've worn this quite a bit lately. was running errands yesterday and realized i was rollin down yolo st!!! wth... yeah... so i had to snap a few photos in my current favorite lazy cadet outfit. and yes i am wearing a tie dyed bra, shorts, socks and laces... cuz tie dye makes me happy.
i mean you only live once right??? hahaha...
so life has been interesting. the truth is i've vacillated on disabling comments or even not blogging. because i've attracted a hater and at first it was kinda bugging. but then i realized some of the greatest things have happened to me recently because of my blog. i've made some really talented, smart and kind friends through this lil piece of the internet. even if i never hung out with them again they have changed my life. truth is i've never had many girlfriends. i know that makes a lot of girls skeptical but it's true. i grew up for the better part of my childhood with my dad and siblings. i was an outcast, different. didn't have the tender hands of a mother to braid my hair or make sure i didn't look crusty. and then in high school i had a really hard time with the cattiness. boys liked me. we got along. it was simple. but i've always felt somewhat alone. so just knowing that all the fucking amazing humans i've met are out there being themselves no matter what the world tries to impose on us makes me smile. and it makes me more me in a weird way. it's like i've found the rest of the freak show. thanks for being brave. thanks for not changing because it would make life easier or make someone else feel more comfortable with their pathetic thoughts.
so go ahead and hate and tell me that i shouldn't dress the way i do and that karma is gonna get me... but in the end i think karma might give you a lil surprise for being the kind of foolio that stalks strangers on the net.
peace out
i'll leave you with this. you only live once.
Oooooh
Some people think they're always right
Others are quiet and uptight
Others they seem so very nice nice nice nice nice oh oh
wearing everything secondhand cept shoe laces those i got at target
lately i've been concentrating on the lil things. life has been heavy and the little things seem to at least brighten me up a bit. but sometimes it doesn't work. like today. i have no idea what to say.... my shoe laces don't seem to matter on a day like today. what gives?
this is very The Craft isn't it? that wasn't intentional... wellll, witchy & 90s are both up there on the bravegrrl aesthetic pyramid. i wore dresses like this to every high school event that was formal/semi-formal. with a pair of docs of course. maybe i'll dig up some old pix some day and show y'all my steez...
the dress is from my newest sponsor undead dandy. audrey is soooo awesome and her shop is filled with thrift finds with a 90s gothy vibe... sooooo perfect. and everything is very affordable.
here are some of my favorite items(click on the pic to shop)... someone really needs to buy them before i break down...
on a real note (i can really only write about clothes so much. i prefer to touch, cut, dye & take them on burrito adventures) you must read madelines' new post here. it is necessary. she really is unbelievably awesome at spreading knowledge and empowering other grrls. in a recent post she wrote something that perfectly describes how i feel about my new grrlyfriendzz
"Being surrounded by a positive community of smart badass women does wonders for the soul, especially given how eager society is to encourage women to hate each other in some bizarre pursuit of male attention. For all of you who fall into the 13-17 year old demographic, there's a moral in this story. If you find yourself intimidated by someone who's hot and badass and smart and talented and stuff, don't get jealous. Get friendly."
i prefer to be productive, but when you feel like you aren't doing anything that is you, that is good for your soul, you can get run down
and then you need a road trip...
well at least the thrift goddesses threw this rasta angel fishy 90s barely there excuse of a dress my way
xo
wearing thrifted fishy rasta dress, vintage boots-RetroVintage123, yin yang necklace-the restless youth, brighton hoops-gift(similar here), house of harlow sunnies-ebay

i'm in a very strange mood right now. must be the heat.
tunnel vision is soooo killing it lately... i can't even tell you how much i love their new lookbook. the styling is sooooo good and so me, like i'd wear it all. and taylor flipp'n killed it. nothing more needs to be said about that... except that i know you are jealous of my dashiki and boots, right? well, i got them over at t.v. so go check out the shop you won't regret it... right now i got my eye on this and this. yep. pure unadulterated vintage lust. what can i say? i'm a simple kinda grrrrrrrrrrrL
ummmm yeah, what else is new besides that i'm melting with the a/c on?
i'm home :) i'm happy, but it's a very dreamlike feeling almost like floating... i don't know that i belong here... and i don't think i belong in the south hahaha...
am planning a clothing swap for sometime next week with a bunch of other awesome bloggrrrls ♥ if anyone wants in and is in the l.a. area then get at me...
these were taken at my dad's in tennessee. it was sooo gorgeous... it's amazing to see the clouds and stars. everything in la is seen through a screen of smog, so sad.
