velvet in january ♥


so my most recent fashion theory is that the world is getting edgier, and you know what... so am i! i am jumping on the bandwagon. i am not necessarily following along to be trendy (or maybe subliminally i am), i am just so sick of being cornered into feeling like my wardrobe has to consist solely of pinks and hearts and polka dots. to be honest, some days i like to wear big grungy black boots, an old levi's denim jacket and a slouchy beanie. but my favorite way to be grungy is to mix grunge with extra feminine pieces like this velvet skater skirt :) it feels amazing to have bare legs in mid-january! i think my legs became even more pale while in boston, if possible.

well, i hope you all have a lovely weekend. i'm taking a little road trip upcoast with matt :) xo!

blouse: for sale in my store

Skater skirts are great and this velvet one makes a nice change to all the leater ones I'm seeing at the moment (not that I don't want one of those, too!) x

Adorable skirt. *_*

Judy said...

Yes, I agree 100 percent with you. Sometimes I have an internal conflict because I like both styles but I don't want to leave the sweeter side of me behind. I think you did an amazing job at mixing both. That's definitely the way to go about it.

what i love about this look is that it is BOTH girly and edgy. i suppose i know what you mean - altho my style has always been a mix of edgy and girly - but sometimes when i dress girly in a city like berlin i just feel TOO girly, so i can sympathize with you completely.
