A Study in Black Outfits

Jacket:  vintage from 70's // T-shirt:  KR3W (consignment store) // Pants:  H&M (2014) //

 Sneakers:  Nike (2013) // Sunglasses:  Christian Roth // Bracelet:  skinny studded belt (thrift find) // 

Ring:  my own making   

    Here, I'm trying to revive the look from the past. Long time ago, I saw a photo on a fashion magazine. A model was wearing black outfits, shearing moto jacket, t-shirt, leather pants, and moto boots, all by Helmut Lang. It was a quite shocking experience, for black outfits had never looked so good. Since then, I've been a big fan of all black look.

    I can't help adding a little twist, for just duplicating the look seems boring. I'm putting on a white graphic t-shirt instead of a black top. For the footwear, I'm wearing rather unusual sneakers. These called Nike Foamposite One, and I know they are ugly!! But sometimes, things that are so ugly and hideous have their own charm or beauty, and it shines when they are worn properly.

    This is how it turned out. I guess this works alright. Hope everyone has a great weekend, and I'll see you in the next post.   

   

Painted Jeans Blues

Jacket:  Dolce & Gabbana (vintage from 80's) // Disco Shirt:  Nik Nik (vintage from 70's) // Jeans:  Levi's (vintage from 80's) // Western Boots:  Tony Lama (thrift find) // Sunglasses: Gucci //
Necklace: my own making // Ring: ebay (vintage modernist piece)

    I am quite found of 70's fashion, so I usually mix some 70's essence into my style. It's pretty obvious in this outfits. Disco shirts are particularly fun, they are so loud and sassy! I usually wear them with bell bottom or boots cut jeans. This time, I pulled out one of my special jeans. Years back, I got these boots cut jeans at a consignment store and put paint on in collaboration of my best friend. He was such an artist, and I was very happy how everything turned out. I can never thank him enough for help.

   Here was the result. I don't like to wear a loud top and loud bottom together, for they often conflict, but this combination just worked fine! Putting together with this tweed jacket and western boots, I could rock all day long! See you in the next post!

         

Let's get it started!

    It's nice to start a new blog in new year! I am writing this to let the world know that even a small person like myself can have fun and use fashion as a tool to express who I am. I'm not chasing trends, but I always want to wear things fit in my personal style; otherwise I feel very uncomfortable and dull. Anyways, it's just fashion. Many people say it's utter rubbish, yet I love and enjoy fashion, and that's the most important thing.

    I got this jacket at a local vintage clothing store last week. It was a lady's jacket, but I fell in love with it at  first sight. When I tried it on, it fit perfectly on me, and I knew I could pull it off, so I just snatched it!! Now, I'm wearing it with boots cut jeans and pointy boot. This way, my legs don't look so short, and I can keep my dignity!! Hope everyone have a nice Sunday. See you soon!
