The Cool Kids






O.k, I'm going to try to explain this as clearly as possible without getting anybody all riled up. This outfit I'm wearing today? Well, I kind of feel like one of the cool kids. You know... the ones NOT wearing anything of color. There's nothing girly, feminine about it either. Isn't that on trend right now? Well, if you follow my blog and read up on my outfits, I'm not really one for trends. I prefer to dress how I feel that day and most days it involves bright colors, and girly dresses.  I assume that's why you keep visiting me, no? Today I was trying to be more casual and wanted a reason to wear these new boots.

You know the saying the grass is always greener on the other side? That's how I feel when I dress like this. There's nothing particularly wrong with this look, I even got a few compliments from strangers today, (including a cute boy working at Trader Joes) but half way through the day I find myself thinking, I wish I was wearing a dress (or skirt, or ruffles, or color!!). It's never ending actually, when I wear a "contemporary" outfit, like something from kensie, I'm wishing I was a little more "Vintagy" and vice versa. Why does this happen to me? Maybe I over think things too much, I am a Virgo afterall (it's in our nature).

A little bit about this outfit:
This super cool blouse is from Value Village. It's 100% silk and is in the best condition. I just had it dry cleaned and I think it'll now be in constant rotation (paired with a skirt of course). I just loved the detailing on it so I  tried to take a close up picture for you guys. It could be worn buttoned on top or unbuttoned, it loks cute both ways.
The boots are from this weekend's thrift store shopping extravaganza. I found them at the very last store we frequented before hitting up a bar in Brooklyn. They're the perfect size and I love the 80's detail on the side. Needless to say, I showed up at the bar with bags of boots in hand as well as my awesome Halloween costume, which I have yet to show you guys!

Outfit:
Top}Karen Perry via Value Village
Shorts} Roxy (diy cut offs)
Tights}HUE
Boots}Thrifted via Atlantic Attic
Jacket}H&M

Quirky New Lingerie Gift Ideas

Quirky New Lingerie Gift Ideas By Lucy Tomkins There are so many different options when buying underwear for your partner. Naughty - If you're looking for something that's a bit on the naughty side then suspenders are a good option. With a belt wrapping around the waist, often over a pair of knickers, suspenders stretch down and attach to stockings, making a spicy, seductive addition to your lady's wardrobe. Nipple covers, also known as nipple tassels, are a daring, burlesque accessory. Many boyshorts, knickers, and thongs have slits in the bottom, and sometimes include ribbon to tie them shut. Evocative varieties of thongs are simply comprised of lace and a string of pearls. Vintage - For those who prefer an old-fashioned look, a basque can enhance a woman's curves and carve out a slim waist. A basque is similar to a corset in fit, but is commonly longer and comes with shoulder straps. A corset is strapless and sexy, but often stays on with extensive lacing. However, s...

Bleu et Pêche

{Blue & Peach} Yes, I'm still taking outfit pictures in my backyard. We were planning on moving this weekend but midway throught he week we found out that the tenant that is curerntly in the spot we're moving into wasn't planning on getting out until Monday. Who does that? Personally, I much rather move over the weekend than leaving it until a Monday but I guess not everyone is on a Monday to Friday schedule. So, instead I spent Saturday packing away, and Sunday went into the city with my man and strolled through Central Park, and stopped into the Met for a quick look. We had a delicious lunch at Candle cafe , another amazing vegan place in the city. This outfit is from last week but I didn't have time to post it until now. I like this color combination and the tights add a little texture since both top and skirt are solid. I usually like to mix it up with a least one print but this is keeping it a little more simple. Looking at these pictures, I'm happy to repo...
