Darkness & Light

3/30/2013

I like this outfit a lot. :D My partner snapped these photos right before we headed out to grab some delicious Friday fish fry. We were in kind of a hurry, since we planned to meet up with some good friends for a comedy show later on that night. I always take a million photos and hate 99% of them, but this time I only took maybe fifteen or so. I had a good face day, is what I like to say. My face and I have a love/hate relationship, you see. It's complicated. Hehe. I won't bore you with the details.

Oh, I'm so self-deprecating. I think it is what keeps me looking youthful. Well...that and the monthly facials of baby tears. Hmm..did I just type that out? I did. I did just do that. You know what, I'm just going to leave it. Yep. No shame in my game. I'm just going to own it. Black market baby tears.

Sooooo anyway...Haha. I'm not wearing anything new here, except the plaid tights which I love to death and my red wool texting gloves. The tights are so warm, thick and comfy. The texting gloves are pretty rockin' as well. Now I don't have to sacrifice finger warmth to indulge my incessant need to be one with my iPhone/iPod. :D Oh and I'm featuring my one and only DIY project. Haha. I'm so hopeless. I cut the thumbs off of a thrifted pair of short black gloves, so that's why you see two red thumbs in my photos.

Shut up. Haha. I have to start somewhere. Hehe. I thought it added a fun touch to the outfit. :P

I'm pretty hopped up on coffee, right now. So, I guess that's why I'm not my usual boring self. Hehe. So, lucky you, yeah? You got a fun one, this time. Heh. I should probably cut down on my java intake...

That is one gnarly sheet of ice, you guys. Seriously. WTF. It's supposed to be Spring! >=|~

Hey, there! It's all about studs, bears and stardust, this time around. :D I have a clever title, now, too. Get it? Eh? Ehh? Haha. I'm a dork. Anyway, the galaxy leggings are back, but this time I'm doing a less funky, more casual look. This is pretty much my all around style. I felt really comfortable in this outfit.

As I mentioned before, I'm consciously trying to wear these galaxy leggings in really creative ways. I've seen so many styles with these and they look rad for the most part. I'm trying to distinguish myself a little bit more from those typical styles. I hope I did OK! Basically, all I did was add leg warmers. I've never seen anyone do that pairing, yet. Maybe it has been done before. It's possible, but hopefully, my overall outfit is sufficiently unique to warrant at least a second glance from a passerby. Heh. ;P

You've seen everything else I'm wearing in some way, shape or form in past posts, so I won't waste your time blabbing about them. I wore this black high-low top in the last post in which I wore these leggings as part of a crazy layering scheme. If you want to see a clearer picture of the high-low top, click here. That's a quasi-post apocalyptic look I created, last year. :D I love this high-low top, because it works so well as a layering tool and as a canvas. Here, the dark back drop really makes the celestial tights glow. Also, you might recognize the bear sweater from this previous post. I love it, too. <3

That's all for now. :D I don't know why, but my outfits have been getting darker as winter fades. Haha. Kind of the opposite of what I would want, really. Old habits die hard... o_O O_o
