Uniqlo blazer, misc. harem pants, Hanes tshirt, Glaze boots, Forever 21 purse + rings.
I want to thank my friend Anna of Anna de los Muertos for getting photos for me. It's really, REALLY useful to know
talented, arty people with the patience of a saint.
We had a Californian Adventure again -- the intention on paper was for office supplies (well, she
was there for office supplies, I was lured in with the promise of curry and macaroons) and later a
stop at Meltdown Comics for some stand-up, performance and good times.
One thing that I absolutely love is good vandalism. I don't mean I support the idea, but some of
the art that comes out of it is absolutely museum quality in my mind. I like masses of stickers stuck
to benches and street signs because they represent a universal desire to be noticed -- all different
people posting their stickers, advertisements of either their business or personality on a surface,
hoping for some notice.
I dunno -- it's illegal, it's desperate, and I love the way it looks.
Armani shirt, Forever 21 rings, misc. shearling jacket, neon leggings.
Thank you to my photographer for being so patient. This was a really awkward session --
drunk people staggering and giggling hysterically in the background, cold wind, traffic, the lot.
There were an absurd number of hobos out tonight and yet no one hollered at me, for once, which
was a sort of nice break.
My leggings got a supah gangstah nod of approval, though. I'm always open to that subtle, upwards jerk
of a chin that validates my sometimes questionable decisions.
I know I've been away nearly a month, but tough, that's school life.
(When I say "tough," I mean for me.)
I've also been formulating my sartorial strategy for spring, and I'm pleased to announce it's...
basically just neon. Not sure a color family constitutes a strategy.
Has anyone else noticed that, according to my posts, I only ever go outside at night? I'm a vampire,
or maybe an alcoholic, or maybe an insomniac,or maybe a social recluse, but hopefully you'd never guess
that from my photos.
Hi everyone! I know I've been away for a while due to school and work, but I've also been preparing for this very special collaboration
post with http://stylepilot.cok.uk, a "personal style engine for men." Personally, I'm in love with their website --
it tailors wardrobe and outfit suggestions to each user's body type and coloring for easy fashion.
I created a profile for myself in spite of being female (sorry, guys,) and used the advice to put together this androgynous look.
Their advice is sound for both men AND women, and I highly suggest you check out their website, Style Pilot if you've ever found yourself at
a loss for what to wear. Androgynous looks are in for Spring, you won't regret it!
Read below for great tips on buying clothes for both men and women!
How To Buy Fashionable Clothes For Both Sexes
Looking fashionable and feeling confident is a state we all aspire to. Sometimes buying fashionable, great looking clothes can be a daunting task. We’re going to look at how to make it easier.
What’s In?
The easiest and quickest way to check out this season’s most up to date clothes is by checking out the internet and style magazines. This is a great way to get up to speed with latest trends without having to actually take a trip to the shops. Only use this to get initial ideas about current styles and whether there’s a look out there you feel is suited to you individually. Individual outfits and items will usually underwhelm when you see them in reality against the magazine or online image. Early research can clarify key colour trends and cuts this season, giving you a head start before hitting the shops.
Know your limits
It’s great knowing what you’re looking for and which pieces are going to define your look this season. You also need to hit the shops with your budget clear in your mind. Not having a budget for your wardrobe predetermined can lead to erroneous overspending which you may regret later. Don’t overstretch yourself.
There are fantastic pieces available at competitive prices at all levels of the fashion market. Take advantage of what the stores offer you. Stores’ window displays are updated weekly to be dressed in the latest fashions. Knowledgeable store teams are also a great source of information and advice. They are often dressed in the store’s clothes too, so you can get a preview of what it looks like before hitting the fitting room.
Is it you?
As great as a trip to the shops and spending money on clothes is, keep yourself in mind at all times. Once you’ve put your outfit together take a look at yourself and ask how you feel. Being honest with yourself, if you don’t feel great, confident and ready to wow, then this probably isn’t the fashion for you.
Being fashionable and stylish is, after all, only partially about the clothes. If you don’t feel comfortable with a look, it’s very likely to be easily noticeable.
Help is at hand
If you’re not sure about what look you want and how you can look great, an outfit builder can help. Online outfit builders operate like a personal stylist. Tell the outfit builder your height and body shape as well as hair, eye colours and skin tone, and clothes specific for your features are highlighted to you.
Let the outfit builder know your budget, style you’re looking for and any preferred brands, and allow it to deliver a truly personal style experience for you. Use an outfit builder to look fashionable and always on trend.
