why I haven't updated


BDG cigarette jeans, H&M tank, BDG cardigan, Converse sneakers

And outfits like these are exactly why I have refrained from updating. A lethal combination of lethargy and stress has put me out of commission for over a week and although I'm done for the most part, I still haven't recovered. I've been away from the internet for most of the week focusing on things IRL and trying to survive what seems to be the toughest semester for me so far. Thanks for understanding, guys. At least now I'm done with tests and have just one more paper to go and then I have to start searching for a job. I'm staying positive, though!

back to black


see by chloe dress, prada lace up booties, H&M thigh highs, F21 bow headband, bottega veneta clutch (not pictured)

Two posts in one day? I'm on a roll!! But no, really, how could I not take a pic of this outfit? I am actually wearing this right now because it's BF's birthday and since the shirt I ordered is taking its sweet time in getting to me (the damn thing was supposed to arrive on Friday!) I have to improvise. So, I dressed in his favorite color to see me in and put on this bow headband. HAHAHAH GET IT?! I'M HIS PRESENT?! Okay, that's a little pathetic. Although he was the one who said (somewhat half-asleep) that I am his favorite present. (CUE: *AWWWWWW*)

To be quite honest, though, it does feel quite nice to return to these all-black outfits every once in a while. My spring outfits are refreshing and all but I always end up falling back on black when all else fails.

(No video yet although I think I finally have this dance down but I need someone to record me doing it HAHAHAHAHAHAH.)

neutral territory


H&M bubble coat, H&M sweater, BDG cigarette jeans, vintage riding boots & bookbag

Can you tell I've been obsessed with neutrals lately? On Friday I somehow ended up stumbling into H&M after waiting for a friend to meet me for some mini sirloin burgers at Jack in the Box (shut up, yes I am obsessed) and bought this huge coat. Wait, did I really just buy a coat in May? It's actually raining right now and pretty damn cold so at the moment it seems like a good idea. The coat is actually surprisingly light since most of the volume comes from the shape of the fabric rather than the weight. I wore this out yesterday to meet BF and his friends to watch the new X-Men movie in SF. The coat was a good choice since by the time we got out at 11 a thick fog had rolled in and Sunday bus schedules call for long waits in the chilly weather.

(One of these days my outfit post will be a video of me perfecting this dance instead of posing for boring old pictures. I SWEAR.)
