Yep, I know it's ridiculous

Yes, this is a leopard faux fur vest that my mom got for me, insisting that it was what was "in" and she saw them everywhere . While at home I wore it around the house with my pyjamas, ya know, in true trailer trash fashion, which only made the rest of my family laugh and my mom unhappy. I brought it along with me to college just to humor her. Well, whadayaknow if I haven't worn it twice already. The first time was part of an outfit I called "Russian oil baron's girlfriend", but everyone just told me I looked classy... and they weren't just being nice. I think this is when I realized it doesn't take much to impress people on this campus.
There wasn't really a theme for this outfit, I just saw the red pants, leopard jacket combo on the fall runways (again, I forget the designer, isabel murant?) and then paired it with THIS SHIRT- if I coulda put that in sparkly pink letters I would have. I FREAKING LOVE THIS SHIRT.

So this shirt is another one of my DIY/clothing mod projects. I was skeptical of it working out since I knew the minute I cut the shoulders out of this basic mens gym tee (so soft!) that the material around my boobs was going to sag. That is why I thought if I did THIS it would make everything tight and wonderful, perfect.

While it does look cool. It didn't really work for what I wanted it to. I ended up having to dart the excess fabric near my boobs and I thought it looked weird, but my friends insisted it didn't (they're so nice!). I've never done that before, but I might think about doing it more in the future. While it's def not perfect, you can hardly notice the imperfections at first glance, which is all I ask for. BUT DOESN'T THAT NECKLINE LOOK BANGIN' WITH MY HEFTY SWIMMER SHOULDERS?! HELLZ YES!

Okay, so I was going to wear this super cool retro 80s/90s look to meet someone I met online and may or may not have kinda liked. but they bailed on me and are not texting me anymore. FLAKE. any way, shouldn't be ranting about personal life on Internet. I will learn. So, this is my super awesome spandex skirt with a basic white tank, a wicked cool shade of blue vest I just picked up during spring break, sheer black tights, and the black boots. Oh, and the earring is something I picked up in Florence, Italy while studying there last fall. Literally, I only bought one. Two were 18 euro and I realized that I would really only ever wear one at a time, so why should I buy both?! I asked the store ladies if I could just buy one for 9 euro (still expensive I know, but earrings are a weakness of mine) and they said "ci!". So that is the story of my singular shocking pink earring. ver ver asymmetrical dahling.
