There's the funk!


Today I Wore:


Jeans:Skinny Jeans by Dickies from Torrid
Black Tank: Target
Animal Print Long Cardigan: from Gabriel Brothers.
Necklaces: Birds from Anthropologie, Key from The radiostation where I used to work, and gold disc a gift from my best friend's mom.
cuff: from Ragarama in Columbus, OH. It says Glenn on it.
boots: Woman Within
hair: down.


This is a pretty standard look for me these days. I've been absolutely loving mixing black and brown lately. This sweater was a great find at Gabriel Brothers. The closest one near me is an hour away, but it's worth the drive for the $20 Lane Bryant Jeans and deals like this sweater which cost $4.99 I wear it all the time, and you'll soon find out!
I own that tank top in black, blue, grey and purple. $8, but they're long and that's important for my body. I need pieces that have a longish torso. I'm thick, but I'm also on the taller side. At 5'10 I'm at the shorter end of the fashion standard for models but taller than most of the women I know personally.


It's sometimes hard to find the right thing for my body, but that's what makes shopping fun! It's like a treasure hunt for the pieces that I can fit into the puzzle that is my wardrobe. I try to not buy items unless I can think of more than one outfit with which it could go. When you don't have a lot of money you get creative! And while I'd rupture with joy to have the resources afforded to Lady Gaga, it's still a blast to find a new outfit amongst my small collection of clothes.

I guess that's all for me tonight. Thanks for reading!
