Cat Hat

this hat was one of those im not going to buy anything today buys. you know when you walk in a store and say "im just looking" when asked by a sales person if you need any help. just to spite me fate threw this hat in my peripheral vision. I tried it on and i was done. I got the "it's so cute" from the boyfriend and it was a done deal. I've since been waiting for it to be cool enough to wear it. It is felt after all. With the cool days we had in NYC last week it was the perfect time to take my Cat Hat for a spin.

I've been holding on to this plaid skirt for a while. it's actually a school girl dress but I like it worn better this way. Plaid is soooooo in right now and I love it! I've worn the hell out of this plaid shirt I picked up at Forever 21. Anywho this dress was a score from my latest trip to The Vintage Twin Trunk Show which is held twice a year in NYC. These Zara heels are my new loves. Yes I'm aware they make my very large feet look like ships passing in the night but I just don't give a rats bum anymore about making my feet look smaller. I have big feet damnit!

PS if you follow me on Instagram you've seen this hat and shoes ;)

texture

what im starting to do is mix more textures within outfits. I find that its more visually stimulating to look at, especially when I see it done on other fashion blogs that I love. here I went with a linen striped jacket, a yarn like top, denim shorts and canvas heels and bag.

also glad I finally got to wear my new Zara heels that I scored for $19.99 at the Zara sale. they are actually pretty freakin comfortable too. although I do love this dark lippy im in the mood for a deep deep vampire red one. a trip to Sephora is in the works soon.

black and white and a pop of red



i still haven't quite figured out stripes yet and this is still the only stripe top I have but I'm steadily trying to work it into my wardrobe more. I would love to pair it with a floral skirt but alas I don't have the skirt that I see in my mind that i'd like to wear it with. Don't you hate when you have the perfect outfit in your head but can't find it in real life. I guess that's why some people learn to sew...I am not one of those people lol.

I got these cute flats from Zara about 2 weeks ago when I went on an insane shopping spree there. They are super comfy and I love the design of them. I've worn them just about everyday. They look great with a skirt but i've mostly been rocking them with boyfriend jeans for a classier look. Did you peep my new shoes on instagram? For others who are Alexander Wang lovers...the sample sale in New York starts Tuesday and I took the day off! lol.
