Day 27


Big sweaters! I absolutely love oversized sweaters. I love wearing oversized things in general... and with that being said, let me share a secret: I wear men's clothes. I love them. I'm a huge sucker for comfort, and guys clearly win in that department. The best place to snag some great oversized men's sweaters, flannels, t-shirts ect., in my opinion, is the sale section of Urban Outfitters. I popped in yesterday and found the sweater you see here and a cardigan, both on sale. I also always rummage through the men's sections of vintage/second hand stores. There are always great finds...

Mens BDG striped sweater, Silence and Noise high-wasted stretch denim mini, gray Sparkle and Fade sparkly tights, white socks, brown Aldo oxfords, Clubmaster Ray Ban shades.

Day 26

My favorite thing to do these days is mix patterns and textures. Not everything works, but I find that it's really an anything goes kind of deal. I was explaining to someone the other day that I don't really put too much thought into what I'm going to wear. I kind of just throw things on and go with it... conceptually it's a very spontaneous process for me. Matchy matchy is definitely NOT me. I've done some shopping recently, so get ready to see some new pieces!

Aldo brown oxfords, Forever 21 tights, Urban Renewal tribal print skirt, vintage black sweater w/ gold flecks.

Oh, and hot pink lipstick is my newest look for spring. This particular shade is Revlon.

Day 25

I'm a big fan of wearing big shirts over dresses, as you can see if you look back on some of my other outfits. I found this dress at a consignment store, Crossroads Trading Co. It was one of those pieces that, on the hanger, looks pretty hideous... but I saw potential. For me, fashion is about seeing beyond the individual piece, it's seeing an outfit as a whole, as a work of art.

Vintage mod boots, black tights, LAUNDRY by Shelli Segal, oversized Bluebird sweater, vintage brown leather belt, Clubmaster Ray Ban shades.

Big ups to my photographer, and fellow fashionista, Polly Wolly.

Day 24


My look today was inspired by the classic style of Audrey Hepburn. Much like Jackie O., Audrey was a trendsetting beauty whose look has transcended fashion. She is truly an icon.

Wearing black London ballet slippers, Forever 21 black denim skinny jeans, black Gap turtle neck, vintage silk blouse, flat gold earrings.

Day 22 and 23

My Ugg boots are making an appearance for the first time in this picture. Let me speak on Uggs for a brief minute. Uggs are extremely comfortable and, for all intents and purposes, very practical when you live in a city and walking is your primary method of transportation and it's 40 degrees outside. While I will be the very first to judge anyone who would wear them with a short skirt, I do condone them with leggings and sweaters. I realize they aren't exactly fashion forward but sometimes, only sometimes, function precedes form.

Classic tall Uggs in chestnut brown, Sparkle and Fade over-the-knee socks, black tights, white wife beater from Forever 21, Victoria's Secret over-sized white t-shirt, BDG tribal print zip-up sweater, fingerless 'homeless' gloves, Falling Whistles necklace, vintage cross necklace, scowl.

Basically I was lazy this weekend, so here you have it... a two-for! You're welcome. Mod boots, black tights, Kimichi Blue floral print skort, vintage sweater, plaid scarf.

Day 21

After seeing Black Swan last weekend I've been inspired by the 'dancer' look recently. Layers, tights and socks!

Wearing woven leather sandals, black tights, black open-toed ballet socks from Forever 21, orange American Apparel spandex shorts, white wife beater, white Victoria's Secret over-sized t-shirt, gray DKNY grandpa cardigan, black American Apparel headband, Falling Whistles necklace.

In other news, I have a new favorite website. One of my roommates told me about it a few weeks ago and I completely forgot about it until today when I was in Yogurtland and saw a girl wearing an amazing pair of vintage flats. I asked her, as I always do when I see something I wish was mine, where she got them. Her reply: etsy.com. This website is fantastic. It's a place to buy and sell handmade, homemade and vintage items... including but not limited to clothing, accessories, art, home furnishings... pretty much anything. Love it.

Day 20


On any given day I've been known to go through up to three different wardrobe changes (this does not include any amazing variation of sweatpants/pajama combinations I wear around the house) and I can say with confidence that I have not worn the same outfit twice. Ever. If you were to take every single item of clothing I own and use an advanced algorithm to figure out how many different outfits could be made, well... I'm not that mathematically savvy, but I'd venture to say its a lot. And they're just aren't enough days in the month to exhaust them all. Enter wardrobe changes. This was outfit number 1 of the day. I liked outfit 2 better, but I didn't get a picture of it. I know, I know.. why even bother mentioning it then.

In this photo: Crown Vintage victorian lace-up boots, black leggings, Forever 21 striped shirt, BDG flannel, vintage pea coat with faux fur collar, plaid scarf, Falling Whistles whistle necklace.


If you do anything today, please check out the link to Falling Whistles, a cause promoting peace in Congo. The promo video alone is worth stopping by, and they've got some pretty sweet swag.
