TEAM SPIRIT

Topshop varsity jersey with customize plaid back, Zara skinny white jeans, Nasty Gal Shoe Cult Faye platform pumps, vintage B&W stripe clutch with added red strap, vintage wide brim hat, H&M silver chrome arm cuffs, Nasty Gal silver cutout ring, Kontraho metal diamond ring and mirrored aviator sunnies

Holy crap looking at these photos made me realize I really did fuck up my bangs! They're so short they can't lay down, lucky for me they're clip on bangs from Sally. I can never give myself real bangs cause of moments like this, sigh!

So remember later week I said I was going to DIY my Topshop jersey tee? Well at first I was going to go for a colorful print but I stumbled upon this vintage plaid pearl snap that was too small for Joel that lined up perfectly with the tee. Now I know I'm the worst at sharing my DIYs cause I literally just come up with them in my head and just execute them right on the spot, without even thinking to record each step as I'm doing it. When an item is one-of-a-kind it's hard to redo the same thing twice and you know I'm not going to buy another Tophop tee, soooooo yeah here's my step by step!
  •  Buy any oversized jersey tee. It doesn't have to be the exact one I'm wearing.
  • Cut out the back of the jersey along the seams but leave enough fabric to sew it back together. 
  • Now find an oversized tee or shirt that's a similar size to the jersey tee and cut out the back along the seams, also leaving enough fabric to sew together.
  • Remove the sleeves cause you may have to resize them to fit the back shirt.
  • Flip inside out and sew back together.
  • Adjust and sew sleeves back on.
Should be easy and no time at all if you know how to deconstruct a tee and sew. I thought it would be a cute spin on a football jersey, plaid and B&W.

Love it?

SPELLCHECK

Motel Rocks letters crop top and skirt set, TX B&W snapback, vintage B&W stripe clutch with added strap, Nasty Gal Shoe Cult Faye platform pump, H&M silvthougher chrome choker/arm cuffs, mirrored aviator sunnies, Nasty Gal cutout ring and Kontraho metal diamond ring
 
 Operation "sporty Summer" is in full force even though it's not quite Summer yet, DUH I know...technically I'm pre-gaming! It's obvious my love for white has increased even though I haven't fully committed in this outfit, I think the retro rad black letters help me overcome my fear of filthiness. I love the proportions and think it's just the right amount of tummy and legs showing without looking too raunchy while flaunting my little naughty bits. 
 
I'm all about skirts this season and feel my inner lady is showing. I love me some cutoffs but I am SO OVER the destroyed denim look, like studding shorts isn't even considered a DIY anymore it's just something you do nowadays, lol! I know it's hot but for fuck sakes can we please advance to something new already...THANK YOU! Don't get me wrong denim will be forever in but instead of cutting them just cuff them. I promise you will thank me later when you're not dressed like a FB teen blogger especially if you're my age it's pretty awkward! Maybe I should have a denim 101?

I'll have another outfit post up tomorrow and I'll also semi-explain my jersey DIY. I kinda just think them up in my head without recording them...story of my life!

UGH STILETTO LADY SHOES

Nasty Gal Shoe Cult, Zara and Nasty Gal ShoeCult
Beginning Boutique, Zara and Zara

They say more than 3 is considered a collection, right? Well I've been slowly transitioning from chunky platforms to stiletto lady shoes and if I would have know how amazing they make my legs look I wouldn't have hated on them for so long! I think it was a bad experience that left me traumatized or the fact I have skinny bony old lady feet but I effin' love them now! For some reason they're a lot more comfortable and have better support and grip...no more sliding and wobbling and dropping it like it's hot. 
I personally love a good ankle strap, as someone who's bowlegged and pigeon toed that strap helps me keep my damn shoes on since I have thinner feet.  It definitely keeps me from flopping, clanking and clacking down your block...ugh I hate that, it's sounds like a fucking horse galloping on cobblestones, lol!

Now the only thing missing in these photos are a cobalt blue pair....life goals!
