What’s better than flower headbands, rainbow skirts, skeleton tshirts, and studded vests? Nothing! I’ve been dying to show off this beautiful skirt I got some time ago as well as this studded vest I made with an old jean jacket from Goodwill. Sorry my hair is hiding most of the studs, haha. It was a fun project though and it saves so much money, I suggest everyone try it instead of spending $100+ on a studded jacket. Goodwill jacket + studs = No more than $20!

Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful dads out there! Personally I think I have the best dad in the world, but you’re allowed to disagree ;)

So yesterday I attended a graduation for my friends at UCLA! Congratulations to UCLA Design Media Art’s Class of 2012, and also everyone else who is graduating this year! I wanted to dress nicely for the occasion but I think I accidentally went toward rebel attire, Motorcycle Chic as I call it. =) I think I was just so excited to try on some of my new jewelry. As you can see, I piled on 4 necklaces. I love the different textures and layers that all these necklaces create! Surprisingly it’s a little tough to find the right lengths to layer but when done right, it makes a simple outfit, like this black dress, become amazing!

Here in Los Angeles we don’t have to worry about “bad weather” very often. When it comes to rainy days, usually I feel lazy about dressing up because all I’m wearing is a huge warm jacket all day anyways! Plus hair always gets ruined. >__> But alas, this blog is pushing me to at least accessorize with my jacket! haha. Ironically I love rainy days.

I wanted to try and braid my hair like this today because I have a bit more time on the weekends, haha. Paired with this handmade jacket, crocheted scarf, and lace-up boots… I felt a little like a Mori Girl (A popular street fashion in Japan that translates to “forest girl”).

I also went shopping for glasses today and found these cool vintage specs but didn’t think I could pull them off everyday so I didn’t get them… I did find new ones though! I will premier them on my blog once I get them, stay tuned! ^__^
