"We Are Made of Star Stuff" - Carl Sagan

I always try to remember to look up. Not enough people take the time to do that. They get caught up in that rat race called life. Just gazing at the moon puts my entire existence into perspective. We're hurtling around the sun at 100,000 km/h in a vacuum. Just think about that. Friggin' cool, huh?

So, I just couldn't resist getting these leggings. I've always wanted a pair and I was so happy to thrift them from a pal in Canada. They're from Romwe, but I paid a little bit less than their list price. :D
I'm wearing some more new things, by the way! I layered a fringed poncho from ASOS and a fringed cardigan over a sleeveless black high-low top. I got the poncho last Fall and I believe I've had the cardigan for over a year now. They're both kind of heavy and fussy, so I don't wear them too often. However, when I do wear them, I always like to use them to make a statement.

Here, I used the contrasting blacks and greys in such a way that they would make the more colorful celestial tights the center of attention. I didn't want to be boring with just an all black or all grey outfit, so I tried to mix the colors to create an understated, but still interesting mix of hues.

Last, but not least, I'm featuring my new fringe bag from Chicnova. I bought it along with a red purse and a brown sweater back in November 2012. You can read a review of my experience buying from Chicnova here. I'm not really that much of a fringe person, but I guess I was just in the mood for it!

I hope everyone is having a great week! :D

Haha, I'm not a fringe person myself, but you styled the bag way cooler than I would :D
And yup, knowing how vast the Universe is, is kind of refreshing! O_O
Awesome leggings, can't believe you thrifted those!

I like the layer-on-layers look and you're right; the dark colors do draw more attention to the galaxy print!

Right on! Thanks! I haven't seen a fringe on fringe look, yet, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I think it gave the outfit a more exotic look and feel. I'm diggin' it. :D

You have layers and layers and layers on and your legs are made of the universe.

I consider this an outfit win.

J and I will be trudging around in the cold this weekend, so I might take a cue from you and just layer everything up the wazzzuu and hope I end up looking as cool as you do. No promises, though. ;)

love,
a.

I love the fringe-y layers! I think it's perfect for you to wear both pieces together to make a statement.

Your layering is genius. I like how your neutral shawls tone down the galaxy tights!
