All Black Everything (Again)


Urban Outfitters tunic, Costa Blanca shorts, Hue tights, Forever 21 earrings, thrifted leather belt, ring & necklace from flea market.

Getting details shots on Photobooth is kind a of a bitch. Sorry for the rather alarming last shot, lol.

Another all black look - I'm trying not to bore you guys but all black is just so easy. This outfit definitely got me a few "WTF is she wearing?" stares today, which is strange because everything I wore today was pretty standard Uni wear - although maybe not in the way I wore it. This UO tunic is too short be worn on its own (or even with leggings, in my opinion... I've tried) so I chose to add black shorts under it to make a it little less scandalous. To be honest, it's actually more clear in the pictures than in real life that I'm wearing shorts. Short version of this story: people were confused. I was most certainly asked if I was wearing a skort.

But back to all black everything - it's awesome. I have a friend who dresses only in monochrome. A look at her closet:


I'm seriously jealous. Imagine how easy it would be to get dressed in the morning? Every time I look at her closet, I seriously consider converting... but one look in my closet at all the clothing I love (ranging over every colour of the rainbow) is enough to change my mind back.


P.S. If you want to know what shoes I'm wearing, just imagine the above outfit with these boots. I wear them almost everyday - so worth the money.

I Got To Fold 'Cause These Hands Are Too Shaky To Hold

The pictures of this outfit cam out kinda blurry and unfocused, sorry about that =/ Now that I'm back at school without my Dad's dSLR I've just been using my shitty P&S - and without flash, everything kind of goes to shit.

Lola's Room blazer, Costa Blanca shorts, random blouse.

This past weekend was homecoming! I go to an Ontario university well known both for it's academics and hard-partying reputation. The gold star on my school's record of imfamy was earned in 2004 when a car was flipped over and lit on fire during the annual homecoming street party - by students that weren't even from our school. So with dropping alumni donations due to a smeared reputation and a recession, our genius (read: idiotic) new principal decided to cancel homecoming for both last year AND this year.

And what was Homecoming now became Fauxcoming. I spent my Fauxcoming weekend nearly getting trampled in club lineups, hopping fences to get into house parties, watching police do nothing but waste our tax dollars and throw undeserving students in the back of police trucks - not to mention trying to avoid large piles of shit left by horses of said police (and mildly failing. Gross.)

But no good night ends without dancing, so after all those shenanigans we danced the night away at a local bar, which was way more fun than I anticipated. I might have pretended to not hear the cover girl say I had to pay five dollars - but hey, I had no cash and no one stopped me! Sometimes the best things in life do come for free.


P.S. Gave in, bought the black Frye boots from this post and they arrived yesterday! Will post pictures tomorrow. =)

Because Your Love Is My Drug

Went to the flea market with my Mom and sister today - it was ridiculous. Chaos, madness and fakes as far as the eye could see. But I did find something worthwhile:


A knock-off the Gianni Versace sunnies that our Lady Gaga made oh-so-famous in the "Just Dance" video. I love them already.


What I wore:

Forever 21 cross necklace, Nicole Miller blouse, Costa Blanca shorts, H&M striped tights.



I know - this cross necklace is my new favourite accessory. I've worn it obsessively this past week... must stop. For now, I will be in my bed, eating samosas and watching United States of Tara. Happy Sunday, lovers.

I'm More Than Just An Option, Refuse To Be Forgotten.

Went shopping on Queen West yesterday, and I went OFF. The booty:

Forever 21 Shirt and Cross, Zara Jacket, H&M Tights, Ardene's Belt, Costa Blanca shorts (both) & Dynamite blazer.

Can't wait to get all of this on my body.

Also: I've been a shit-tastic blogger lately, sorry for the lack of outfit posts. Combination of busy with work/dressing to go out at friend's places without camera/losing my camera charger/not being allowed to take my father's SLR out of the house. I'll try harder to make time for outfit posts from now on =)
