This Bart Simpson get up is a Jeremy Scott knock off that I got on ebay for a really good price of 40 dollars. I love Jeremy Scott, but I don't have the money to drop on his clothing. I found this almost a year ago and I thought it was perfect, I had to have it. I love patterns like this, its not something you see to often. I know being a fashion follower or a blog fiend you notice a lot of people wearing clothing that is really patterend and people clashing patterns really well (or at least thats the kind of stuff I see a lot.). I tend to think a lot more people actually dress like that, then there actually are. I almost never see people walking around wearing all patterns. I mainly see people wearing black or grey or things from higher end retail brands. It's a little boring sometimes and it got me thinking:

Fashion is a form of self expression and I think it is so much more fun to dress crazy and colorful and different, life is to short to wear boring clothing. I think it's better to stand out then to blend in, so be bold and daring!

Sometimes I go back and forth on this though. A lot of the time I don't care what other people think and I dress the way I feel. Sometimes even dressing a certain way will improve my mood. Every once and a while though I feel like I just want to dress "normal" to be "pretty" to the rest of the world. It's a strange feeling really. I feel like that is a common feeling for a lot of people and I think it's because everyone has this little part of them that almost needs approval of others. I can admit that sometimes I feel like I want other people's approval but most of the time it doesn't matter to me as long as I can make myself happy. In the end the only person you have is you, and you need to be able to make yourself feel good. Love yourself for who you are, and others will love you.

I guess those are my cliche words of the day..

Face it

$up,
So my mom snapped this picture of me yesterday before I left to house sit. Right now I am currently sitting in a house watching dogs sleep. Its so exciting (...sarcasm...). I was supposed to do it when I came back from camp which would have been tonight, but Ryan had to work and since I came back early I switched days with him. I missed a really awesome costume party so I am a little bummed. All I want in life is to dress up as a rainbow.. but whatever.

I am wearing this super awesome beanie that my friend James Moreno (a.k.a. Nobody Photography) gave me. I posted a while back about a t-shirt he gave me. If you haven't read that post, DO IT. I'll just say again though, he is an awesome photographer, and he is so creative and talented, check out his facebook page and his store! I highly suggest buying this beanie, it fits great and its very comfortable, I love me a good beanie. The overalls I got at the Rosebowl swapmeet a while back, they are kind of broken, but they are made out of corduroy so that makes up for it (I am a sucker for corduroy.). The shirt is a 90s popcorn shirt, that will soon be on my etsy store. I'll keep ya posted about that. These shoes, I haven't worn in a while but they are super comfortable and affordable. I got them on ebay for like 30 bucks and the company is called Max-star. I really wanted to get the yellow ones that had a rainbow bottom, but at the time, my style wasn't so colorful. This necklace was also an ebay find. I was kind of mislead in the description because it said that it was going to be made out of metal but now thinking about it I think they were just talking about the color. I got it for .99 cents so I can't really complain. I really do love it though.
