Daily Outfit 3/15/10

This is what I wore Monday, to do some wandering around and go to the Freak Revolution meet up. Crankyface is courtesy of walking several blocks while hungry!

Let’s break it down:

  • dress from Hot Topic (I KNOW, RIGHT?! I mean. ahem. I really like it. I think my favorite thing about it is that it’s longer in the back than in the front, which prevents the problem of skirt-shortening in the back that is caused by my butt. I’m sure other girls with some badonkadonk can sympathize.)
  • secondhand Hyde belt
  • Farylrobin Visby boots (I got them from OnlineShoes.com, who has them on sale. Amazon also has them for a similar price now. If you’re thinking of ordering, I’d say they run true to size.) They are super comfy! My first pair of Farylrobin shoes, and I am duly impressed.
  • DIY’d fascinator, with bird skull from Alicia
  • Necklace from CMandMJewelry on Etsy.
  • purse from Buffalo Exchange
  • glow-in-the-dark white skin courtesy of being inside all the time and slathering on sunscreen when not

And the necklace:

I love it. It looks much better in person, I was really impressed by the quality – I think I’ll definitely be ordering more from them in the future!

I am ridiculously worn out, for not having done much this week. Just some hanging out, meeting awesome new people, and trying to navigate Austin with the crazyass traffic. We’ve been walking a lot of places because of it! Maybe that’s why I’m so worn out. Either way, I’m having a great time meeting people and it’s totally inspiring! I’m amped to start working on things after this week – I’m effectively taking this week off, with Saturday being the last “party day”, Sunday being for recuperation, and then I am going to start kicking ass and taking names as of next Monday.

I hope you’re all having a fabulous week and enjoying spring! It was surreal, we left for Missouri last Friday and most of the trees here didn’t have leaves – then Monday morning, when I walked outside in the sun, I said “Wow, everything turned green over the weekend!”. I love it. Spring is DEFINITELY here!

    I love your accessories, the studded belt, handbag and that fascinator is amazing! I like how you mixed up your outfit, you look sexy and yet your hair gives your whole look an edgy feel :)

    Much love,
    Glendy <3

    I feel like I want lots of clothes in the same colors as your hair! So beautiful.

    Thanks guys! The fascinator was fairly easy to make, too – just involved some patience and willingness to be burned by the hot glue gun ;)

    Thanks Wendy! Personally, I always have a hard time finding clothes, and especially shoes!, in that shade of blue : / Ya listening, clothing manufacturers?!
