Bikes, Camera, Action! (T-Shirt Challenge!) Part 1/9

7/2/2015

I did my first ever t-shirt challenge on this very day two years ago. ^_^ It will be interesting to see how my tee style has changed over the years. I definitely feel like I've picked up some new tricks. Also, I'm not really the same person that I was back then. I've grown a lot style wise. I have less fear. >;D~

So, what have I gotten myself into, this time? Hehe. Well, I decided to do an unconventional mix in prints and wear a pinafore underneath a skirt, again. Yay! More often than not, my monochromatic outfits have a dark edge to them. Though, I've had a few exceptions over the years. Today's outfit would fit neatly into the latter category. It's super quirky. Haha. Nothing scary to see here. *^_^*

The camera skirt is absolutely, positively adorable. <3 I love the print so much. I'm not convinced that I have the right figure for it, though. Maybe if my hips were just a little bit smaller. Heh. I feel like the skirt poofs out a bit. >_< An A-line cut would have been more flattering. Still, I'm going to try to convince myself to keep it, even though I've had difficulty figuring out how to wear it. I think I did OK, this time. :D

Oh and I gave myself bangs! Insanity. I look so innocent. ;D I'm not sure how I feel about the bangs, yet. I'm not used to that look. I mean I basically had a flap of hair on my forehead all day. o_O Also, the last time I had bangs was in elementary school. Hehe. Still, they made the outfit a bit cuter. *shrug* <3

I loved the way you wore the pinafore and the T-shirt challenge is so nice! I loved the camera skirt and the bicycle T-shirt! Well, well, I am biased to talk about bangs... I was going to say I looove your hair, when I first opened the post, believe me! I think you look very beautiful- and as I said, I am biased, but I really loved the bangs!

Looooooove the mix of fun prints here! And you always have the most creative combos--I would've never thought to layer a pinafore under a skirt! Which, by the way, looks AMAZING on your figure. Love the camera print SO MUCH! I am a camera/photography enthusiast so perf! (<-----yep, I just said perf)

This is a perfect, adorable outfit for summer. Your layering skills are goals, dude. Every post I'm absolutely in awe of your layering, and I'm always jealous of your color and pattern coordinating. You have such an artistic eye with this stuff. Hope you have a good and safe weekend!

PS: Those bangs, tho! <3

Yes! Bangs made this look even more innocent. And the adorable bun!

Love the idea of combining different black and white prints. And the pinafore finishes the whole look perfectly <3

I'm so excited about this t-shirt challenge :D lovely looks!

Your hair is So. Damn. Cute like this!

I had no idea what I was doing when I did this. I'm not any kind of hair stylist, so I felt super ridiculous. Haha. I guess if I wear my hair like this often enough, I'll get better at it. :P

Anna, your hips are fiiiiine! I think they look smoking hot in the skirt, shapely and stylish!
And I'm dying over the new tee outfit, the pinafore is a brilliant idea to add, love your summer layering. Aaaaand finally, the bangs! Omg, I'm gonna sound like a girly girl right now, but omg, you're a doll, so cute!!! You were meant for bangs!

I really like this- the B&W colors give it a very graphic look that balances the two different prints.

I'm dying from cuteness overload! No seriously. :D

Hah! I love this black and white graphic look. It's amazing.

Is your wardrobe ginormous? Do you wear everything? At the moment I'm just fighting so much with my style, the amount of clothes I have - the amount of clothes I'm not wearing, everything. It's painful. I think it's "growing pains" but I'm still hating it. I just wonder if you ever feel some of those same pressures?

Nah, dude. It's actually quite small. I live on the top floor of a really old house. The closets in here are tiiiiiny. I don't know how anyone could live like this. Previous occupants had to have had a couple of those ornate, wooden standing closets or something.

I use a tiny closet in my bedroom for mostly shoes, t-shirts, sweaters and dresses. Overflow stuff goes on a free standing closet next to my bed (which is totally over capacity). I think it will fall over one day. Haha. I also keep all of my coats and bulkier sweaters in a rather small coat closet in the living room. So, it's common for me to go back and forth from the living room to my bedroom when I'm trying to figure out what to wear.

My partners seems to think that I have too much clothes, but I really don't! It just seems that way because we don't have the large closets that are typical of modern homes. I bet I could fit most of what I have in a modest walk-in closet.

Oh and I know that I don't wear everything. It bothers me, too! Not being able to easily access my clothing (and clearly see what I have) is probably the major culprit. I tend to wear the clothing that is within reach and within view. Hehe. That being said, I haven't bought anything new in ages and I've managed to breathe life into some lesser worn pieces within the last year or so. I'll see how far I can take it!
