Mod Biker

Twas the last week of school before winter break, so I decided to wear some pieces that haven't seen the outside of my closet in a while. This Zara white skort is not something I consider a winter item. However, I felt appropriate paring it with all black. I felt very mod today wearing all black with a pop of white. Someone pointed out to me that my skort looked like a napkin... which surprisingly it does. 

As the week carries on, I'm getting excited to go to Miami to see my grandparents over break. Hopefully the weather will be warm because it can get pretty windy there in the winter...maybe you'll see a summery outfit including this skort, if the weather permits. 

What are you doing for the holidays?

Double Breasted = Sea Captain. Right?

"Ahoy Mateys!" Is the phrase my jacket would say right? No? Well, I didn't see a sea captain look when I bought this jacket, but today a classmate kindly pointed that out. And the clicking of my heeled boots- well obviously that says I'm a teacher to another classmate. "Get back to class!"

I don't try to dress up as a sea captain or a teacher, it just happens. I put together an outfit on the basis that I like how it looks. I don't do it to impress people or shock them. So If I'm doing it for myself, why do I always get comments?

"Excuse me, who asked for your opinion?" Always runs through my mind when a comment is said about my outfit. It's not that the person meant to be hurtful or embarrass me, but it always seems to put me on edge. I guess all the bullies in middle school taught me to always be on my guard.

Comments about my outfits are said a lot to me, not in a nice way either: "In that outfit, you look like a (insert rude noun)." Hey, I wasn't going for that look, but thanks anyways. Maybe I'm too sensitive, but when it's said daily I'm going to get a bit sassy.

Next time try to look at me without comparing me. I appreciate compliments, so take a tip from these olive Theory trousers (which compliment my hair color nicely).  I'm just a chick in a double breasted jacket with "clickety- clack" booties, that's all.
