I LIKE TO PLAY DRESS UP TUMBLR.FACEBOOK.LOOKBOOK.CHICTOPIA.LASTFM

Ah, this picture sucks, but omgz I'm finally making an ~outfit post~
albeit a sucky oneKohl's (energie) red maxi dress, UO sandals (not pictured, but I mentioned them in this post)

I guess this is kind of anticlimatic, since I'm not really wearing anything crazy, but I do looovvvvveee this dress. I work at Kohl's in my hometown when I'm not at VCU and I had been eyeing this maxi dress for a while. I finally bought it a few days ago. We have a bunch of different ones in stock and several of my coworkers were bugging me to try one on since they thought I'd look good in them (I'm about 5'7, so I guess that's taller than average?). I was doubtful, but I fell in love with this one. Maxi dresses are so summer-y, and I liked how this one was in red, not a very summer-y color in my eyes. It's so comfortable too, and it was perfect for this 90+ degree day.

La Dolce Vita, Teen Vogue December 2008/ January 2009






This, as with many Teen Vogue editorials, makes me wish I had a cute fashionable boyfriend to play dress up with :3

I'm 20 and I still read Teen Vogue. It was the only teen magazine I could really stomach back then, and now that I'm older, I still find myself in awe of the editorials. They always remind me that fashion should be fun, and not be taken too seriously.

This has to be one of my favorite music videos. It's so ridiculous, but sweet. The girls look so cool. I wish people still dressed like this, it just seems so fun. I did a little "photoshoot" with my friend Claudia, somewhat inspired by this. It looks like a wannabe Terry Richardson photoshoot, but I'm ok with that. I plan on doing more like this, but in much better locations and such. This was just a spur of the moment thing on a boring weekday night. Fun times. Womp womp.
