Music Playlist Challenge, Pt 2: "Starry Eyed" - Ellie Goulding

-

Here is my long-anticipated "Starry Eyed" outfit. I'll be honest, I mostly wanted to do the inverted challenge for this song alone. Can you blame me!?! Ellie Goulding has a great fashion sense and her music is so inspiring as well! It's this electronica-romantic style that makes the future not so robotic-sounding or stiff. So that's what I did in regards to this outfit, sparkly silvers and vintage pieces for a romantic hipster marriage.  Please note I am also sporting my "starry" earrings, a personal favorite that I am suprised that I get much use out of. The rest of the outfit was intended to look like the sky and the stars. Blouse and Skirt, Buffalo Exchange Leather Jacket, Forever 21 Necklace, AE (gift) Earrings, Icing The Rest: Starry Eyed - Ellie Goulding White Sky - Vampire Weekend Falling in Love at a Coffee Shop - Landon Pigg Electric Twist - A Fine Frenzy What You Waiting For - Gwen Stefani (clean version...

Music Playlist Challenge Pt.2: "What you Waiting For" - Gwen Stefani

I decided to kick this one off with Gwen Stefani's "What You Waiting For" because I had a very specific outfit come to mind. I had a blouse with a ton of clocks on it, so how could I not use it when the song is mostly about time and taking chances now. I got inspired by the Alice in Wonderland theme in the music video as well, but I drew the inspiration from not only the quirky cutesy clothes of Alice, but also from Gwen's Queen of Hearts outfit with the tones of red. Funny thing, I felt kind of uncomfortable throwing this on. I blame living in a conservative small college town for this one, because I knew as I threw it on I would be completely normal back home. But I felt like I was wearing tons of trendy, bold things and a little over-the-top to be honest, but looking at the pictures now, they turned out great. I'm glad I went with my intuition on this one. Blouse, Buffalo Exchange Skirt, Buffalo Exchange Heels, Famous Footwear Tights,...

Music Challenge: "Rolling in the Deep" by Adele

This time I chose to do "Rolling in the Deep" by Adele . If Pinterest hasn't taught me anything, it's that Adele has a look all of her own. After Googling up her fashion taste, I found that she was a big fan of three things: lacy black dresses with the occasional colored overcoat and sparkly earrings, big luscious hair, and a soft cat-eyeliner with gold/brown eyeshadow. So that's what I did....sort of. My hair can't stay that voluptuous for that long and maybe I need a liquid eyeliner to make my cat-eye stay and to leave an impact. I have to admit I felt really uncomfortable putting on so much black but I got a lot of compliments that day (live in a small-college town full of Conservatives in the middle of winter, go figure). Skirt, Buffalo Exchange Shirt, NY &C Belt, Goodwill Boots, Last Chance Tights, Kohls Coat, Burlington Coat Factory Earrings, Icing Camisole, Downeast Basics What's left? 1.      Are Y...
