Roxy like a Puma


This look was inspired by two of my favourite fashion bloggers, The LineUp on Youtube. Specifically, Maya's "Club" look in this video. Although my sister and mom strongly advised against tucking my hoodie into my high waisted pants, but I liked how it looked and stuck with it. 
This Puma hoodie was one of my best most recent thrifting finds. Although I'm not sure if it is genuinely "retro" Puma, it has that look and I love it. It was because of this look I decided to draw on some 90s vibes and throw on my trusted mom jeans, my denim jacket for that Canadian tuxedo excellence, and my white Converse. Also, how obvious is it that this choker is one of my favourites? I wear it far too often.








Although some may fear the dreaded "mom-jeans butt", I embrace it. Loose, baggy pants will never truly flaunt our behinds in the best way but hey- you're comfortable feel cute and that is all the matters at the end of the day. 
Also, to all who get this post's title, thank you.

Werewolf


My sister once jokingly told me that these jeans made me look like I was attacked by a werewolf. So, I found paring them with shirt worked well.  
This marvelous shirt is was I referred to in my last post, as one of my many finds while at a Value Village sell last weekend. I'm loving the fishnet trend at the moment; however, I am always too damn cold to sport it. So, I came up with this warmer alternative. Wearing a pair of semi-opaque tights underneath the fishnets adds a comfortable layer, while still showing off the cool tights overtop. Anyone who is chronically cold can understand this struggle. But at least it's still a cute alternative!
Throwing my hair up into two fun space funs, along with my favourite long whimsical sweater were the perfect final touches for this ensemble.

Out of This World


Vancouver weather has everyone confused at the moment. One day it is mild conditions with sunshine, the next we have a full on snow storm (not an exaggeration!) Because of this, I have been mastering the art of layers. In this look, I have two (yes two) long sleeve shirts off to start, then my long denim button-up as a visible layer, and then lastly my gigantic black sweatshirt. As if this wasn't enough layers, I even have another pair of leggings underneath my velvet ones! Throwing on my trusty black toque and Docs to add just that much more warmth. And, of course, a Diana look would not be complete without a good ol' choker. With this look I was prepared for any weather-surprises Vancouver could throw at me!

I'm Hooped


Being in the midst of midterm season, sometimes it can be difficult putting in the willpower to "look good" in the morning. However, I have been finding with simple pieces that are loose and comfortable, with some eye-catching accessories, I am able to put outfits together quickly and get on with my day. This was definitely one of those days. First, we have the loose mom jeans which are always my go-to. With them, a loose black t-shirt tied into a know- a look I recommend for days that you want to be comfortable but not completely lose your shape. Then, adding a fuzzy black sweater will keep me warm in these gross Vancouver-weather days. Now, to make the look a bit more special, I threw on a necklace my mom made (and plans to start selling soon), and a vintage belt from my mother as well! Then threw my hair up into a half bun and threw on some Keds. I was toasty warm, completely comfortable, and still looked half decent!

Fishnet Friday


Upon find this jumper at the thrift store, I immediately became inspired. Dabbling in the fishnets-under-distressed-denim trend, I have to say I love it. Making me feel a kind of way! I will definitely be wearing this trend more often! Especially during the transition months that is known as "Vancouver spring" which consists of rain, rain, and rain. All together, this outfit made me feel like the badass I aspire to be.

Bundled Up


Trying to stay warm but still be fashionable can be a struggle for people who are perpetually freezing cold like me. However, I do find ways to get around this- and that is of course, layering. Under these ripped jeans I put on some black tights (not quite warm enough for fishnets), and with it a black turtle neck and a warm sweater. Add a great belt with some metal detailing, and throw on my velvet boots and I manage to look decent in the snow.
