Music Playlist Challenge: "White Sky" - Vampire Weekend

-
You know, I couldn't for the life of me get the outfit I thought up on for Vampire Weekend's "White Sky," I was really going to sport my white dress but I definitely knew that Vampire Weekend required quirky prep too and those two things just weren't mixing in my head. So here's my quirky prep, because White Sky, Ottoman, M79, Diplomat's Son, yeah they are all about privileged preppy teenagers with identity crises and indie-rebel tendencies in my mind.




Also, I'm really short! Remind me to set the tripod up at a lower angle so I don't look like the shrimp that I am.

Sweater, Gap (gift)
Gingham Button-up, Forever 21

#HappyNewYear

Although this was actually for a Christmas party, since I knew my New Years would be unremarkably casual attire, I pulled out the gold sequins earlier in the month. Also, enjoy the supremely posed picture below from my office's party. We had a little fun checking out the ritzy rooms in the hotel's presidential suite. Black Pencil Skirt, J.

I found myself going on a very quiet run at my favorite park that was unusually empty. Perhaps it was the downpour of rain and the temperature approaching freezing, but I got to match my workout gear! Enjoy my day outfit and having a very zen-ful closing to 2014:  Jacket, pants, socks - Roadrunner Sports Fleece Ja...

Daring Greatly

Most outfits I wear don't spark controversy. But for some reason this one did:  After reinventing my wardrobe and cleaning it up, I'm finding I am able to think up more creative combinations for outfits because I can see more. So, less is more is the moral of that story. But I saw some past outfits where people took summer "jumper" dresses, paired them with button-ups underneath, and gave them a fresh, almost Indie-look. So when I realized I could wear this dress another way, I instantly pulled it out and chose what I felt was the most interesting and suitable combination - my buffalo plaid top. I stepped out of my room and my roommate immediately took a look and, very unlike her, said, "Hey, just wanted to let you know, that top and dress don't match." My immediate thought was, "But print mix and matching is one of the coolest ways to pair clothes in the Fashion Industry world." Bloggers... Lucky Mag Editors circa 2009 and ear...

Music Challenge Recap

Phew, it took almost a year to complete this task, but I completed my second music challenge !   For those who don't remember or don't know, my older sister I Get Dressed currently runs a fashion blog and inspired me to turn my old one (formerly eclectic rocking) from a database of pictures (which Pinterest now fulfilled that need in my life) to a daily documentation of what outfits I wore.  Once we got the hang of pictures and were starting to get bored with our outfits, we had a conversation about two years ago about how a lot of music inspires fashion . So we decided to push ourselves creatively by giving each other a set of songs that we had to create outfits for. Well, judging by the looks of mine and hers last time, it was a great success, so we decided to do it again. Anyway, enough rambling, here is a recap of my results: 1 - Pictures of You- The Last Goodnight 2 - Call Me Irresponsible- Michael Buble 3 - Club Can’t Even Handle Me- Flo Rida ...
