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!

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!

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.

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.
