One Night Only, For Your Eyes Only

6:29 PM

I'll probably be switching this blog over to a lifestyle blog one day just because I'm not nearly narcissistic enough to continuously take enough photos of me in outfits to keep up this blog. It's just awkward taking a photo of yourself by yourself unless you're on vacation. And I don't want to become part of that large population of people, who take photos of themselves all the time. For the most part, I only started taking outfit photos to document particularly creative outfits or really special pieces of clothing that I wanted to show off.

Sorry for the lack of posting recently. I've been busy with work and midterms, which has made it very difficult to take outfit shots and keep up with everything going on in the fashion industry. Hopefully, I'll be back to posting soon.

End of Season Wishlist

5:43 PM

One of the hardest parts about working in retail is being surrounded by clothes 24/7, especially when shopping and looking good both land in your top 10 favorite things to do. What also sucks about working retail in January is that traffic is slow and you're surrounded by all these end of season sales, which makes it even harder to resist shopping. While looking at all the awesome sales going on, I couldn't help but feel drawn towards the schoolgirl, Beck, and sad-Parisian girl vibes this season culminating into a look that's romantic, tough, and a bit Alice in Wonderland. Now if only I had a) more money and/or b) better associate discounts.

Style Icon: Cher Horowitz

Re-watching Clueless the other night reminded me just how much I love the 1990s fashion in this film. It was the antithesis to the grunge movement, creating this kind of pretty, kind of preppy  West Coast look. If nothing else, this movie just really supports my view that plaid mini-skirts are a must.
Cher Horowitz's enviable wardrobe of matching plaid skirts, mini skirts, and preppy meets SoCal layering pieces are the stuff dreams are made of and it doesn't hurt that Cher has a stylish BFF too, Dionne. Cher is also one of the few people out there who is able to pull off cute workout outfits and gym clothes are rarely cute. (Remember our baggy high school PE uniforms? The worst, right?) It makes you only wish that you had a chance to look that chic during high school.
For those of us who still want to cop Cher's super cool mix of school girl chic and 90s fun, here's my edit:
