What I’m Wearing
* White twill straight leg stretch jeans… courtesy of Jigsaw London. I’m always a bit scared to wear white pants but these are so flattering, they actually make my legs feel longer! I love that they’re not super-tight either… they come in a few different colors as well but I’m so happy with the white!
* Vintage blouse.
* R.J. Graziano Double Disc Drop Earrings from GILT
* Gucci vintage stripe sunglasses
* Lela double zip wallet in coral.
* iPhone case DIY… still using it… still loving it! {have dropped a few times so this clear case has passed the protection test as well}
* Steve Madden blush suede pumps
* Title: lyrics from New Order – Bizarre Love Triangle
Sometimes I’m into a ton of accessories but mostly, they just annoy me… it’s too much fuss for me sometimes and I just want to rip everything off! Some outfits call for a lot of accessories but some don’t. I think some fashion bloggers {and I know I’ve done it as well} over accessorize to get an editorial feel for their outfit photos and it’s strange how instead of being mocked for being over accessorized or gaudy even, they are applauded for being so stylish… and I think it’s funny, that’s all. You see it in catalogues, where companies are trying to sell products and in magazine editorials where the magazine is paid to advertise and sell products as well. I just want to assure anyone who may feel less than fashionable because they aren’t loading up their arms with bracelets every day and wearing ten necklaces at a time, and layering articles of clothing upon one another, that style doesn’t always align with trends. Style is how you make those trends your own, or how you don’t. Fashion bloggers are just trying to sell a product too.

Happy Thursday!
