Stare Into The Sun

This week has been full of DIY projects for myself and Miracle Eye! These shorts, orange floral crown, and the flowers on my shoes are a few of the many things I had been procrastinating to get to. Procrastinating might not be the right word due to the fact that I'm almost never home. But when I am, I take the definition of the word 'lazy' to a whole new level, and that's a good enough of an excuse for me (because I'm always busy with Miracle Eye, friends, or concerts). Life is short, go out all the time, and when you're not out, embrace your inner coach potato-ness (no, don't listen to me), and watch season after season of My Strange Addiction or good ol' True Life for a self-esteem boost (listen to me on this one) OR I Almost Got Away With It to learn what NOT to do when you're trying to smuggle in coke from Venezuela (i'm kind of kidding).

I don't have much to say other than that, and if you didn't read any of this, here's a sentence from the Miracle Eye Facebook page that sums it all up: Happy Friday everyone! Boy am I glad that I don't have a lot of friends, that way I can stay in and decorate shorts tonight instead of getting trashed -- Musings of an anti-social clothing designer (yours truly).



Short-sleeve olive sheer maxi top - coming soon to Miracle Eye
Def Leppard bodysuit - ASOS
Necklace - Etsy trade
Floral crown - DIY
Shorts with gold fringe - coming soon to Miracle Eye
Shoes and sunglasses - coming soon to Miracle Eye
Handmade moon bag - Colombia markets (grabbed it when I visited last month) 


PS I felt really inspired by someone I had already been following through Lookbook, but just recently became slightly obsessed with: Cheryl. Her look is a bit more 'dark' and 'witchy', whereas I put this together with a lot more 'desert' and 'sunset' vibes. Either way, check her out cause she is rad as hell.

Taylor Balding said...

I love how the colors in your shorts match the colors in your hair... hahaha. And I totally am the same when it comes to procrastinating DIYs... I literally have a corner in my room where I have craft supplies and half finished projects sitting.

Unknown said...

You have the most amazing style, I wish I had half your style! I love your hair too, how have you done all the colours? Have you had to bleach it first?

GEEKY CONCEPT said...

I like how your hair and the shorts match

Oh people are just going to go fucking crazy over those shorts, totes killing the fashion game you are. Also, like I said on FB.. decorating stuff for your OWN ONLINE STORE has to be better than having a vibrant social life. Really. Who needs mass amounts of friends when clothes are your friends? Haha.

Jane said...

Coolest outfit ever. Love your style.
