Beep beep. I'm back!

Finally, the right dropcrotch black harem pants have made their way into my life. Thank you, One Teaspoon, for understanding how to make the perfect pants.

They're the One Teaspoon Midnight Rambler Jagger Pant. I got mine from Dolls Kill. The material is thick and amazing quality. Eep, so in love. Even my boo (yes, boo) asked me where he could get a pair. Lord knows he wasn't serious, but still. Cool pants, bro! Boyfriend-approved.

As usual, it's impossible for me to take serious portrait photos. Hence the smoosh-faced-goofball-extreme photos against the red wall. I stick my tongue out whenever the occasion calls for it.

And can we just talk about how obsessed I am with that dirty white tee? Rats, off-white color and the perfect I stole this from my boyfriend fit. Le yum. God, I'm full of obnoxious phrases lately. LE YUM.

Orange Beanie Kinda Day

Please excuse the iPhone pics! I've been a lazy daisy lately, but at least I've been making more of an effort to layer textures and patterns. And of course, I've decided to embark on this layering mission as soon as the temperatures begin to rise. I've never been great with timing, you know.

My baby sis, Kat, snagged me the rad pins that now reside on my beanie. They traveled all the way from some rad boutique in Japan. They haven't poked me in the eye yet, but there's still time for that.

Big changes are coming my way, and let's just say I'm equal parts excited and absolutely terrified. My brain is an absolute mess comprised of too much coffee, dozens of to-do lists and general chaos.

P.S. In other news, I'm blonder!

Jac Vanek Slacker Sweatshirt

Yep, I'm a slacker lately, and there's nothing more fitting than confessing that to the world via a piece of clothing, right?

Petals and Peacocks - SDFU

There comes a time in every young fashion maven's life when she must acquire as many wash your mouth out with soap pieces, and for me, the time is now.

Petals and Peacocks once again has dished out some super rad pieces. If there's anything I can get behind, it's fashion mixed with effortlessness- and comfort. Behold, the holy trinity!

But for real, the new SDFU (shut des f*ckup) design is tongue-in-cheek fun. And anything that can make your mom exclaim, "Oh my goodness" is worth the shock value.

Check out the Petals and Peacocks store! And maybe I don't even need to say this, but the beanies are super stretchy- so stretchy that they can even accommodate my crazy big head. Oh life.

UNIF Union Jack - Jacket Addict

I find myself automatically reaching for my UNIF goodies whenever I leave the house lately. And lord knows other fashion babies out there do the exact same thing. It's seriously getting a little scary.

So glad my mission of looking like a dirt bag in the candy aisle at Target was accomplished.

I definitely went a little wild during the Nasty Gal sale, and yup, reference the first sentence of this post and you'll find that the majority of my scores were UNIF. The UNIF Detention dress was #30-ish dollars. Insane! Insane in the membrane, people.

I was ogling the Leo Zip Pants forever but couldn't justify the price tag until they dropped to under $30. The reviews all revealed the pants fit super small- like two sizes to small. Yup, they were right. Lord, are these suckers super tight. I might rip them up a little to change the skintight-suction-cup thing going on, but we'll see. They look super rad on, and I suppose that's all that counts for now.

The iPhone finally happened, so there will hopefully be lots of instagramming happening!

UNIF Christian Death Metal

Behold a little glimpse into my life lately. But if you know me well, these photos show nothing new. Disheveled hair? Check. Beat up tee? Check. Lots of fur and leopard? Oh, lawd, who would I really be without them?

I was so excited to get my paws on this UNIF tee. It was either sold out everywhere, or else it was marked up to full retail price, which I always refuse to pay. After months of searching, I gave up and settled for the muscle tank version but was pleasantly surprised when I opened the package to find that sweet Bessie, the top had sleeves to it. A fluke? I say fate!

To anyone else, sleeves vs. no sleeves is not a huge deal. But when you live in Wisconsin in the seriously low temperatures, sleeves are a blessing. You can only layer thermals under your tanks for so long. Plus, I can no longer justify buying a million sleeveless tees, so it was time to get a little more sensible.

Go Team Beth - A Varsity Jacket

Whoa, whoa, hold the phone, I've gone sporty. This is about as close to athleticism as I get, aside from wearing really heavy 6 inch heels. How cliche, I know.

Yeehaw, check out the back of this crop top. I threw on a lace racerback bra underneath for a let's play with negative space vibe.

Did anyone notice the varsity jacket has a B on it? B for Beth, of course.

I got a large in both the varsity jacket and the crop top, if anyone is thinking about getting 'em. The varsity jacket definitely fits more like a medium! And the crop top is basically the softest thing ever. I got a bigger size since I didn't want to show off too much skin.

If anyone is ever interested in an item I'm wearing and wants to know what size I got for comparison purposes, please feel free to email me! I'm about 5'7", so I'd love to help out. Sizing is one of the trickiest things about online shopping. I randomly email bloggers all of the time, and it's a really rad way to make new friends, too.

And whoa, this is one my mom's first times using a DSLR camera, and she did an amazing job. Go Mama!

Loop Knit Sweater Weather

I've been scouring the world for the perfect shaggy sweater. It's one of those pieces that you either love or hate, but if you're into texture, into amazingly obnoxious pieces of clothing or into something a little offbeat, my friends, you need to get shagged.

Yeah, I've really been into extreme faces lately.


shag-sweater-2


shag-sweater-3

Seriously, that texture is amazing. It's like a dash of granny style mixed in with 70's inspiration and man, I don't know. But let's just say this is better than the time I bought that cotton candy pink shag vest and everyone I encountered while wearing it awkwardly pet my back like some sad little, pastel creature.

I'm really all about pairing this knit with ripped up shirts and graphic tees. Contrast and texture. Oh lawd, cue a fashion freakout.

This baby is from Dailylook. Annnd because I never shop anywhere without a discount code, take 20% off your first Dailylook order!

Reboot Moto Jacket

I cannot believe how amazing this pastel moto jacket is. It basically fits like a dream (aka true to size) and is lightweight and super soft. Yum. Did I mention it's a gazillion percent off right now?

Nothing like bubble tea as an accessory. Strawberry banana. Ow ow.

And yes, my hair is lighter and so much closer to Daul Kim blonde goodness.
