THE Coat

Oh, hello there! Its been a while, huh? Work and  work parties picked up speed these past couple of weeks and after it all is said and done, all I want(ed) to do is sleep! But I'm back to talk about a purchase that I made a couple weeks ago that makes my heart sing - my new black winter coat! I saw it at Zara and fell in love and with little to no convincing from Fawn - I bought it. The wool, leather lapels and bigger silver zippers are such added bonuses to the fact that I just needed a black coat, and needed it bad. The cut is also really interesting, it has boxy symmetry going on (which makes it look a tad over-sized), and is definitely most accentuated when worn open. 

I seriously wear this with everything, everyday, from open to zipped up, with hats and most infamously with my bright Mexican poncho-inspired scarf (seen in last picture).

I hope everyone has found their own little gem to keep them warm!

I almost never do matchy match with stuff like this, but I thought I'd try it out. Hello muted colors!

All Black, Everything

Good morning! Mr. Barack Obama was re-elected for his second term as president, last night and I couldn't be happier! No matter who you voted for, as long as you voted...I'm proud and happy of you!

Moving on to less critical life actions, I made an order on Romwe not too long ago and my package finally arrived and I.LOVE.EVERYTHING! No surprise...everything is black and has a skull or studs/spikes! The quality is pretty prime and what I saw online is exactly what I got - which is a huge deal maker or breaker for me when it comes to online shopping. So I will definitely be re-ordering with them if I see something that catches my eye.

The ever-so-popular Bunny is someone who got me HOOKED on this site, so this is my public gratitude: thank you Bunny, thank you, thank you, thank you!

For the record: the spiked snapback reigns in on my 'top 5' list of "best shopping decision, ever".

Listen to the jammin' jam and have a stellar Wednesday ✌

Pink Pants | OOTD | VIDEO!

Okay, so now it's really starting to feel as if my posts are out of order because I have videos from OOTD's that I posted sometime last week. Editing videos is not my top priority when I come from work - all I want to do is take a shower and go to sleep. But, life is too short to not take advantage of time doing things you love, so I'm trying to make it a habit to be more consistent. Bear with me. Enjoy!

Pink Pants & Light Leaks

When I received these pants in the mail, I was beyond excited! The scarf print on them is such a fresh twist to the standard on-trend colored denim for the season. They're a bit long (because I'm short) so I cuffed them up and still like the white detail of the fold. I couldn't contain myself to make a super decent OOTD because I wanted to blog about these bad boys, asap! So I just paired it with my favorite (and now, unshapely and faded) oversized black shirt. I tucked it in because it's so long, so it has this funky bubble effect, but who cares! This outfit was so comfy, and of course I had to throw on my Litas and some gold accessories to complement these pink obsessions. & yeah, my bun has made an obnoxious comeback.

PS: I've been into faking some light leaks...I know, I know, sad but it reminds me of the real light leaks that would happen when I was shooting film.

Casual Monday OOTD

It's Monday...again, and here I am - wondering why the weather is playing tricks on me. Motivation to dress up? All gone...sayonara. So here's a basic/casual OOTD. Nothing spectacular but still makes me feel like me. When in doubt, throw on your Chucks and spiked and you're set to go. Fingers crossed for better weather and inspiration to come my way. Enjoy the beginning of your week!

OOTD | Lady Danger

Today was one of those days where I wanted to wear all black again  but I decided to add a pop of color...to my lips. I've been living in the color "Lady Danger" lipstick that my sister got me for Christmas. It's the perfect mix of red and orange. In another news, definitely missing London, so I decided to add some british flare by wearing my Doc Martens with frilly socks. Also missing consistent weather; was so happy that I wore my chunky knit infinity scarf because it was cold and started to snow out of nowhere!  Hoping everyone had a proactive and happy Monday - remember, do what you love and surround yourself with people that make you happy!
