Breakdancing Jesus & zeroUV Review! (T-Shirt Challenge!) - Part 9/9

I thought I'd put my quirkiness into full gear for this last day of the challenge and go out with a futuristic bang. We've got breakdancing Jesus above, the universe below and a little limbo in between. :DDD

I think this is one of those outfits that not very many people would dare to wear or could wear. Haha. It's probably just me on this one, really. Though, it's something that I've heard often. You know, the whole, "man, I could never wear that outfit, but it looks great on you!" I'm sure part of that is just people blowing smoke up my ass and just being polite rather than offering constructive criticism for fear I'll take it the wrong way. Hehe. However, I do think there is quite a bit of truth to their statement, too.

Why wear something that anyone can immediately emulate? Be as unique and creative as possible!

zeroUV Review


I'd also like to carve out a little section here just to talk about my experience buying from zeroUV. I found them on the Chictopia shop and they were having a sale on some pretty cool looking sunglasses.

I clicked on their homepage link and browsed it a bit before deciding on three pairs of glasses: this blue one you see here, a clear one with brown marbled rims and some flip sunglasses. Making an account was easy enough. I had some trouble with the info fields when I signed up, though. I think the boxes were misaligned with the text or something. Heh. Anyway, they offer free shipping on everything, I think. I know that my glasses shipped free and arrived within a reasonable time. Very well packaged, too!

I decided I liked two out of the three sunglasses, so I emailed zeroUV's customer care to obtain a return authorization to send back the marbled ones. It was a no-hassle experience. I was provided with a pre-paid shipping label and I was able to return the other glasses for a full refund.
:D Their glasses are pretty reasonably priced. This blue pair was just $5.00 and their styles are pretty rad, IMO.

Anyway, that's all I've got. Hehe. This is a short post, since it's really all about my awesome t-shirt. :D You last saw the galaxy tights here, the striped high low dress here and the combat boots here.

And so my t-shirt challenge finally comes to an end! Whew! o_O O_o  Let's celebrate with one of my favorite late 90s break beat tracks by Hybrid. I can totally see Jesus staring down a bouncer before getting let into a seedy underground night club where he walks right to the middle of the dance floor and busts a heavenly move to this track! Haha. :D For those of you whom I haven't scared away with this post (or this song..haha), you should know that I have a super cute post coming up, so don't worry.

Calm yourself! Everything is going to be OK! Haha. <3

The License Plate Said "Fresh" (T-Shirt Challenge!) - Part 8/9

This is the best shirt I've ever thrifted. :D Oh, yes. I've had this shirt for over six years! I was shopping with my mom in another state and picked it up for like $3 or something. I would find it hard to believe that those of us who grew up in the 90's don't recall The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. I used to watch this show every evening after getting home from school (along with Inspector Gadget and Batman heh).

All you have to do is just look at the logo and hilarious memories from the show just come flooding back.
:P~ So, I went with a minimalist look here, because the real star of this outfit is the t-shirt. All of a sudden, I'm thankful for this made-up challenge. Haha. Without it, this rare nostalgic gem would have remained buried under other shirts in my closet. Now, I feel motivated to show it off more often! :P

You've probably noticed that I'm wearing sunglasses. Yes. It is rare. Why? I don't freakin' know. Haha. I really don't. I'm trying to change that, though. I mean, it IS summer after all! This is the one time of year when people are expected to strut their stuff in sunglasses. :P So, I decided to update my collection since I'm not really a fan of the ones I've got right now (which is probably why you don't see me wearing many of them hehe). I got these retro flip sunglasses from zeroUV. It just so happens that they go perfectly with the theme of this t-shirt challenge. I love these a lot! I'll do a zeroUV review regarding my shopping experience in my next post, since I made another purchase and it hasn't arrived, yet. :D

As you can see, I wore the plaid top from this previous post, but simply tucked it in and allowed only bits of the sleeves to show.
Then I finished off the look with my thrifted black/white gingham shirt dress and simply tied it around my waist for the ultimate 90's look. Hehe. I know I said "minimalist look" up there, right? This is my idea of "minimalist." Gingham and plaid. Haha. I'm a little insane, I guess. I just wanted to draw attention to the awesome Fresh Prince logo. Mission accomplished methinks. :D Hehe.

I'm also sporting my high waisted spiked shorts from Forever 21. I'm loving the HELL out of these, you guys! I expected the spikes to be janky and fall off after one wear. However, I subjected the shorts to my normal abuse and they held up. I can't wait to do more styles with these! They r0x0r. <3


I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! <3
