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.

SPIRIT


In an attempt to not fulfill the Canadian (particularly Vancouver) stereotype, I will attempt to not go on and complain about the weather now. However, I have to say, the day after these photos were taking, it started snowing like crazy- yes, in March. But now to the outfit!
I got this awesome sweatshirt this Sunday at Value Village during one of their 50% off sales! I got a bunch of stuff, including an early 2000s Beyonce t-shirt (B'day era- I know, score), and an incredible wold shirt that is usually donned by single white middle aged men who birdwatch on the weekends. I am considering making a haul post to show off what I got! And maybe even how I style the items. 
As soon as I saw this grey sweatshirt I knew I had to get it. It is perfect for that "sporty" look that is popular at the moment, while still being incredibly comfy and warm. Paired with my trusty thrifted mom-jeans, I threw on a toque (surprise surprise), and my Drs that I still have not broken in after 3 years. All-in-all, I love this look, and can't wait to style this sweatshirt some more!

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!
