1990s Lumberjack Chic

It’s been a long time since I’ve done a “fashion blog” post. I’ll admit that, since I started working in wardrobe (as opposed to costuming), I’ve really started to dress like crap. I don’t know if it’s that I have to be easily mobile/have pockets/be on my feet all day or if it’s because I now have to care way more about how others look than myself — but it’s taken a toll. However, I had a day off today, so I finally looked less raggamuffin-esque.

Yes, it’s part lumberjack, part 1990s grunge, part mom shorts. But, you know, I really liked it. The flannel shirt is from Target and is incredibly warm and comfy. In fact, I also have it in blue. That’s serious. The high-waisted black shorts were a $50 Urban Outfitters purchase. I also have them in bright indigo. That’s also serious.

I adore these grey sweater tights from Target. They are much warmer than regular ol’ nylons. These shoes are from — you guessed it — Target, too. I’m not convinced that I love them yet; the height on them is unfortunate because they hit above the skinny part of the ankle…giving that fantastic Cankle Illusion.

The earrings are my favorite part of this outfit. They were my mom’s in the 1990s, and I can remember her wearing them. They’re a set containing one golden man and one golden woman.

They remind me of David Bowie & Iman.

So, there you have it. A 1990s lumberjack mom outfit. This is why they pay me the big bucks.

A Cornucopia of Snapshots!

Being a twenty-something, American female, I sometimes like to partake in a very specific ritual any time I receive an online shopping order. Today, with thanks to Photobooth, you will have to endure this pastime.

Why, yes. This is me trying on a beige romper with three different sets of…leg accessories. I’m thinking I may have to invest in some cognac or chocolate colored knee socks if I want to go that route with this. Sans socks altogether is a great idea for when I’m enjoying fall weather way down south in Alabama…but something will have to keep my goosebumps in line during the five days I’ll be in New York. Of course, I’ll have to take in the top of that romper before that trip. Thanks, boobs, for never growing.

Uh-oh. Put a giant flower in a girl’s hair, and she immediately thinks she’s some sort of Spanish ballerina. Aside from that, I’m really diggin’ this navy blue cotton and lace dress with flutter sleeves. It looked a bit more youthful than I wanted to go on the website, but I have zero regrets about this purchase. And that yellow flower clip from Anthropologie was an amazing gift, so thanks, Niks.

Well, there you have it. I’ve gone over the deep-end and now am convinced that I’m a flamenco-Laura Ingalls-ballerina, and nobody can stop me. Honestly, I hated this dress when I got it. The frills were too frilly. The pink was too pink. The whole thing was very blah. I think after I put the 1990s belt, grey knee socks, and brown riding boots, I felt a little better — but not convinced. The dancing session…that’s what did it for me. Dress, the way you look when I dance made me keep you. So always be FUNctional for me, k?

As you know from all my pictures, I never do my hair. I used to French-braid players’ hair for volleyball games in high school, but I just can’t do a thing with my own locks. So, it’s always down in my face — long and crazy. Well, today I tried for a braided, messy ponytail and ACTUALLY ACHIEVED SUCCESS. This blog post is a testament.

Miami Vices

It’s Sunday, and I’ll be the only one in the office. I feel like I should be allowed to mix the casualness of jorts with the dressiness of heels. I take these stupid pictures of my outfit (though not revealing my suspenders, for whatever reason), and it hits me.

I look like a frickin’ Kardashian today.

Most people would scowl at this realization, but, oh, not me! I find this to be perfect, as a new episode of Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami airs tonight; it’s like wearing team colors to better root for the evils of Kourtney.

Like I said, I have Miami vices.

Five more outfits for those of you playing along! Is that not the most unforgiving black dress you’ve ever seen? It adds to my birthing hips like nobody’s business.

I bought this print, and it is proudly hanging in my kitchen. The couture pose makes it related to this blog. Promise.

Well, I’m giving the style video thing another try. If you hate it, just scroll past and don’t give me crap.

So, without further ado, enjoy (or don’t enjoy) some outfits of May 2010.
