PAISLEY HAZE







Paisley maxi dress [Lulu's]
Black faux suede wedges [Target]
Tribal necklace [boutique in Hawaii *forgot the name*]
Jewelry [Vintage]
Sunglasses [ASOS]

The weather is finally warming up so I wanted to wear something relaxing and flowy, and this maxi dress from lulu's was perfect for that! I love the zipper detail on the back of the dress. I'm not sure how trendy paisley is these days, but I've always loved it as a print. It gives me a rocker/60s/vintage vibe. I also am wearing a tribal necklace that my bf got me in Hawaii.

I'm so bummed that tomorrow is Monday already...is it me or do weekends seem so short when you have a full time job?? I'm not sure if it's just part of being an adult (I have a feeling it is), but man every time Sunday rolls around I wonder how it got here so quickly!

Annnnyway--I decided I'm going to share new music with my posts sometimes. Today I'm sharing some Jhene Aiko:

ROSE GOLD

I'm just going to say it, I feel like a boss in these ASOS sunglasses. They've got gold accents with a rose-colored lens. I'm like Rick Ross right now. 

And yay for grey dyed hair! The sad part is the grey is already washing out, it's such a hard color to keep in because it's so light. :(

As a tip, when you get your hair colored and/or toned, you'll want to buy a SULFATE-FREE color-safe shampoo and conditioner. The sulfate ingredient is what strips your hair of color quicker...bad sulfate!

GREY FOR DAYS (NEW HAIR)

I am so excited about my new hair color, grey dip die! I love the way it looks with the brown and black. I am definitely going to hold on to this hair color for a while.

I kept my outfit simple today and I am wearing a pussybow dress by ASOS.

BLUE CRYSTAL + NEW PAGES

Today's outfit includes a top with little mini skulls on it, my ever-present black skinny jeans, and a crystal necklace. I didn't feel quite confident enough to wear a bralet underneath the sheer top, but I bet that would look so cute and simple. I can imagine wearing a silver or black bralet with it.

So I started a Facebook page finally, if you have a chance, please like it!

Also, I'm starting up my lookbook. I just started putting the hype button at the bottom of my outfit posts, so please hype me if you like my outfit!

P.P.S. Happy 4.20

I AM AMERICA

I am a pickup truck. Not really, those are just the lyrics of the song below by Das Racist!

My flannel shirt from F21, it's probably my favorite find there ever! I wear this shirt in so many ways, and way too much. I also got this awesome American flag heart tank with an asymmetrical hem from Karmaloop, which also goes well with a lot of outfits. Also check out my diamond necklace, I got it on etsy!

♥ BIRTHDAY LOVE ♥

I had my 25th Birthday this past weekend at Monarch in SF...it was an awesome night! The bday spot had art nouveau and steampunk inspired decor and an acrobat on a ring above the bar, so cool. It was the perfect way to celebrate 25 :)

FLOWERS AND SKULLS

(Caution, hella WHITE legs coming up...thanks SF for giving me no sun)





Open-knit sweater [JOY the store]
Flowers, swans, and skulls top/Pleather shorts [H&M]
Open-toed platform shoes [Target]

I got this unique top when I was at an H&M in Amsterdam. I was really surprised that the selection there was so much better than the H&Ms I've been to in America. I felt like I was in a completely different store! 

The weather has been slowly getting warmer here although it is still windy, so I've been introducing a bit more of a spring wardrobe to my outfits, while still keeping warm. For example, a super open-knitted sweater breathes well but still covers. Open toed shoes also are a great way to show a bit more skin.

I also introduced spring into my usual monochromatic wardrobe with a bright pink lipstick. Here I'm wearing Hourglass lipstick in "Poetry."
