2 Chainz

Finding this belt was a miracle.

        Recently, I went to the Vancouver's Topshop at Granville Station, on the hunt for some black mom jeans. I was having a hard time finding a pair that fit me anywhere else, and Topshop was my last shot. Luckily, I was able to find an incredibly comfy pair (that I will be showing in an ootd very soon I'm sure). Before I went to checkout with my jeans, I browsed their accessories section, specifically seeing if they had any cool belts with chains - I've been really into that look recently, inspired by many other bloggers including one of my favs, Julia Dang, as you can see in this pic. So I was checking out their selection, and lo and behold I reached to the back of the rack, and pulled out the last black chained and studded belt, and it happened to be a size XS. If that's not fate I don't know what is.

        I've been itching to style this belt since. I've been really inspired by a more androgynous look recently, with dress pants, black boots, and turtle necks- for some reference check this out, and this, and also this. 

        So I decided to try styling the belt with my thrifted trousers, my thrifted black turtleneck, my thrifted (and incredibly warm) down puffy jacket, as well as my 8-eye 1460 Greasy Dr. Martens, and toped it with my dad's Hi Visibility Orange Thinsulate Toque.

Drab denim

Sometimes, we Vancouverites get too eager and excited for spring and jinx it all. These photos were taken the day before we received over 5 inches of snow. Which is sad, because I was excited to start breaking in these damn adorable loafers. But, like every year here, they will have to wait for the non-shitty weather (a whole 2 months of the year). But, I was feeling confident and dared distressed denim and a simple t for casual yet still put together ensemble. This trusted denim jacket never fails me when I hope to add warmth and some somewhat ragged look. Right up my alley.

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.

Ripped

Today I decided to pull out a grunge look... possibly inspired by, oh I don't know, maybe perhaps my beautiful new hair. I am so in love.

The look is centred around these distressed denim jeans that I bought in Thailand. Bought them distressed, but stressed them out a bit more myself. And the crop-top because, well, I live the TTCT (Teeny Tiny Crop Top) life. Yes, my boyfriend and I made that up. For the rest of the look I threw on my trusted wizard-esc black cardigan, along with my (once) white kicks, and some silver jewellery. This is the kind of look that I feel most comfortable and "myself" in.

I cannot believe that this is actually my hair I am beyond happy.
