shirt: thrifted, shorts: Forever21, shoes: Amazon, bracelets: Target, H&M, Forever 21
This genius mix of mumu meets old granny meets cat lady meets kimono meets teen hipster of a shirt totes floats my boat (say that five times fast). It's everything a big shirt should be and everything you would expect to find at a Goodwill. $3 hollaaaa!
Here's my Goodwill shopping secret - look for the grossest stuff. No, I don't mean dingy, I mean if you look at something and make that weird uncomfortable face... try it on. One, it's fun to take pictures and laugh at how great an old 80's kitten patterned jacket is. Two, you'd be surprised... sometimes what's on the hanger just doesn't translate to your body, right? Well, the same can be said for it being awesomely translated. It's all about how you wear it, too, in term of confidence. If you feel like it's a bag on you, and it wasn't on purpose, it's gonna look like a freggen sack'a potatoes. If you pretend you meant to wear a giant ass old weirdly leopard spotted kimono shirt, you're gonna own it. Goodwill has some good stuff sometimes. And if you like cheap stuff like me, it's a goldmine. You just have to look, and try on things you would never ever go for.
Okay well, leopard. I go for leopard. Always. I have leopard everything (except an umbrella). So maybe look for a colour, or a print, or a style, and look for that only and disregard everything else. You might surprise yourself with your finds.
I've been wanting to shoot at this wall for a while, now. I walk past it everyday on my way to school, but being that it's 5:30 am and I'm rushing to catch my bus, it just never fits in. I finally made some time, and you will definitely be seeing it again. I love anything Alice in Wonderland (especially with Depp as the mad hatter mmm). It's fun but it's got an underlying darkness and mystery to it. I'm down for any graffiti, really, too. This city is full of it. It also makes me feel like a G.
