High Voltage

Shoes/ YRU, Bag/ Jump From Paper, Dress/ Barrio Vintage.

Jump From Paper bags caught my eye sometime last year. I always loved the way that they looked, especially how they looked in pictures. When I first saw them I was convinced that someone photoshopped a cartoon looking bag into their picture. When I figured out that it was actually a real bag, I felt like I needed one. About a week or two ago Jump From Paper approached me about featuring them on my blog. I was so thrilled and excited! I got the bag over the weekend and I was a giddy school girl when I opened the package. It also came with a really cute cartoon like wallet (which I desperately needed.). This purse is definitely a necessity to my current style, so you will be seeing a lot more of it (Thank you Jump From Paper!). The bag is also very roomy and can fit a lot of stuff, it even looks cartoon-y when you open it. Make sure to check out their website JumpFromPaper.com.

This dress I got from a vintage store in Honolulu, when I went to Oahu this easter break. The vintage store was probably the coolest one I had ever been too. It was called Barrio Vintage in downtown Honolulu. If your ever in the area, this is a must if you love vintage as much as I do. The people who work there are so friendly and they love unique outfits (the best kinds). I've been told if you go there a lot, the owners will pick out and save stuff for you that they think you would like. That is my kind of place. Lastly this outfit wouldn't be complete without my YRU platforms. I have been getting a lot of wear out of them lately, I am really interested in getting new platforms that are high quality. Probably from buffalo, but they are kind of pricey.

Music- This song has literally been stuck in my head for a whole entire week. I can't get enough.

Monday is Funday

Dress/ St Cyr Vintage, Shoes/ Y.R.U., Jacket/ Bleached Vintage

$up,
Happy monday everyone. I have a little over three weeks left in this term, and I am so excited to go home for easter break, how ever this week is crunch week. I have so much shit to do and I'm bugging out a little bit. I've done a lot of work but I just don't feel like its enough yet, so I am really going to hustle this week. Today we had 10 minutes of sunshine, and then it became really grey, but it was kind of warm (warm being 57 degrees). This dress I got in this really wonderful vintage store called St. Cyr Vintage in the Camden Market. I went there while my mom was still in town and we ended up getting lost in the market (as always) and we stumbled across this store. Everything was really well organized, and each article of clothing was arranged by size which was cool and frustrating. I saw frustrating because out of all the beautiful clothing there were only four things in my size. This dress was one of the four things, and thank god, because its soo cute. I made this coat a year ago, and it isn't really warm enough for London, but since today was kind of warm I got away with wearing it. These shoes are Y.R.U. and I find they are the most fun to wear, but I still really want to customize them. We'll see what happens.

I had a conversation with a woman on the tube yesterday. I complemented her coat, because it was bright pink, and really cute, and it is very rare to see an older woman wearing something colorful in London, especially on a rainy dreary day. She went on to day she liked what I was wearing and then we talked about how people give people wearing colors weird looks because everyone always wears black of grey. She went on to ask me if I was a student and what I did, and I asked her what she did. She does IT but she loves music and plays the piano and cello. it doesn't sound like much of a conversation, but it really made me feel good. People usually glare at me for wearing the stuff I wear, and it doesn't really bother me, but it does make it hard to talk to people. The fact that she wanted to talk to me, made me feel really nice. People never talk on the tube.. They should.

Music-I know I already posted Chela, but I mean come on, this is a great song.
