Spinal Tap

Do you ever spend half your day thinking about the exact outfit you are going to wear later? (Because I totally do!) Well today I was in an all black ensemble kind of mood (Honestly when am I not in that mood? Ha) I had a particular black maxi dress in mind, but of course when I went to get ready it was no where to be found! Isn't that the worst? Fortunately, my quick improvisation was still photo-worthy. 

It's my favorite time of year here in Ohio now where layering is everything. Time to break out all my leggings and tights! This particular pair of leggings I wore today are surprisingly from Walmart from when Miley Cyrus had a line there years ago. (It's a bit embarrassing to admit, but hey they were a good price, still fit, and have a cool reflective quality to them!) 

I then paired my leggings with this sheer black top from Hot Topic. I love that the stand out feature of this piece is on the back, a spine! It's eye catching and possibly a bit disturbing to some? But I'm obsessed! And when I went to school, I made sure to carry a large purse instead of a book bag to make sure the back could be seen.

Finally, I'm wearing my favorite sneakers, the studded HOMG by Jeffrey Campbell. With the "flatform" they provide me with a small height boost, but are still comfy enough to walk all over campus in.

All Black Everything

The weather has finally been warming up here in Ohio (it's now a whole 40 degrees!). So I was able to take a few picture yesterday.  It was warm enough to wear just shorts and tights and a leather jacket so I took advantage. This whole look was created at Forever 21 and H&M.

Leather and Lace

I love this oversized sweater I found recently at my local thrift store. It's really versatile and can be dressed up or down. I really enjoy the contrast created here by pairing it with edgy leather pieces. 

Thrifting tips to achieve this look: Make sure to check ALL sections when thrifting. Oversized sweaters and shirts can be paired with tights and worn as dresses.

Dead Plants Romance

When paired with black and silver accessories and my favorite spiked Jeffrey Campbells, this dress gives off a romantic gothic vibe that's nothing short of badass.

Black and Gold

Two colors I love to wear together: black and gold. I love the Versace-esque graphic details on this shirt. They give me a reason to wear tons of gold jewelry! Here are just a few bracelets I would style with it.
