                                       This whole outfit came together because of a D.I.Y. project I was working on. I made this armband a couple weeks ago. I call it the "quick patch" since you can take it off and put it onto any outfit. I got sick of my favorite patches being stuck on only one jacket or shirt so this seemed like the next logical step. It features the anarchy "A" and the queer rights upside down triangle. As far as the outfit goes, I wanted to balance the black and white since they are such high contrasting opposites. I feel the gray shorts really helped out there. Once again, I just like knee braces. I just use them as accessories to make my outfits a little more interesting.   What I'm Wearing Today: White Fisherman Beanie  / /  ASOS Black Turtleneck  / /  Utopia Wear Quick Patch  / /  D.I.Y.

                 Todays look reminds me a bit of Rooney Mara as Lisbeth Salander in the movie The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I just love her outfits and her attitude in that movie. Nothing like a badass who knows how to get what she wants. I wanted todays look to be a bit of a Goth/Punk mix as well as be utilitarian. This Ben Sherman back pack has so many convenient pockets most of the time I don't know what to do with all of them.   What I'm Wearing Today: Black Jersey Hoodie  / /  ANVIL O-ring Choker  / /  DollKill Keyring Charm  / /  Lowes Backpack  / /  Ben Sherman Spiked Bracelets  / /  ebay Skinny Chinos in Black  / /  ASOS Leg Harness  / /  ebay /Black Socks/ Shoes  / /  Prada Gabardine High-Top Wheel Sneaker

                                  I thought up this outfit and immediately after getting dressed realized I'd seen it somewhere before. I was always a fan of the Android saga in dbz so whatever I guess.  I'll take inspiration anywhere it comes from. Anyways, this is a super casual hanging out with friends look.....if you have those thingsss. These are all pieces I've picked up along the way and mix and match into outfits all the time. It's easy to forget about old clothes in the back of your closet. Try working them into outfits sometime. Even if you end up an anime character. What I'm Wearing Today: Black Bandana  / /  literally anywhere Leather Backpack  / /  Transetter Striped Long Sleeve  / /  New Look Band Tee  / /  Dropdead Dark Gray Jeans  / /  self cropped Levis 511s Socks  / /  ASOS Penny Loafers  / /  ASOS

             Just a little bag project I've been working on. All the patches are hand sewn which is a total pain in the ass but worth it. I always sew by hand and use dental floss when sewing on my patches. I feel like d.i.y. shit is always painstaking but in the end you end up with something unique and totally yours. I haven't finished the other side yet, but this is cute for now.

                  As the weather gets warmer I always find it harder to get creative with style. Im really into layering my outfits, but obviously thats harder to do in summer. Today I went for something pretty casual and breathable since it's starting to heat up a bit. I styled up an otherwise basic look with a simple cross body bag and baseball cap. Adding some high socks helps to give the outfit some balance. Otherwise there might be a bit too much of ma stems showing and I'm not that kinda girl. ;) Im happy with how this look turned out and I'm feelin ready for summer. All dressed up with nowhere to go.

                      This is less of a D.I.Y. and more of a me putting a sticker on something but hey, I did a thing! What the hell did you do today? I love mixing boujee bullshit with trashy aesthetics. Hence, this was born. Lindsay Lohan chic if you will. I got the cigarette case from amazon and the Chanel decals off some etsy. In any case it was more so a waiting game for the items to arrive than it was a D.I.Y. since that part took seconds. I have other D.I.Y. projects that I'm gonna post in the future. I feel it'll become a semi-regular thing. Remember kids, smoking is a disgusting habit. Then again I'm a disgusting person. ;)

- - -Punk & Prada- - -

                                             For the longest time I thought I couldn't be punk and be into fashion. Then I grew up and realized I can be whatever the fuck I want and others don't dictate who I am. So I leaned into it. Things weren't meant to be segregated and rules were made to be broken. With that in mind, my personal style was born. Theres no real look I was going for here. This is just kinda an everyday look. I'm always wearing my black levis 511's and a punk band shirt with my Chuck Taylor all stars. To make it different I threw a blazer over it with my Prada arm bag, some fingerless gloves, and my go to beanie. Style is in the details. You can change the look of anything by knowing how to accessorize.  What I'm Wearing Today: Fishermans Beanie  / /  ASOS Gauze T-shirt  / /  Angry Young & Poor Black Blazer  / /  Thrift Find Arm Bag  / /  Prada Belt  / /  ASOS Black Denim  / /  Levis 511 Chuck Taylor
