Back To Basics



Quick little outfit post for you all. My close friend is visiting me for a week, which means I have a minion to take photos for my outfit posts.

We just had a chill shopping day so I chose some basics (white top and denim shorts) and layered on the gold accessories as I like to do. My style is so boring lately, but I'm really enjoying the plain normcore/ laid-back style. Literally, I wear a white shirt and denim everyday... Maybe I'll try to switch it up for you guys.

I'm finally a high school graduate. I feel like I've been talking about it forever, but yes. It's finally done and over with. 

Now it's time to fully enjoy summer vacation.

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.
