Bring On The Glitter!

Gather your Swagger up, before I take it all.

The title is from a lyric in a childishgambino (a.k.a Donald Glover) song. He's my future buddy, meaning he doesn't know this yet but we are going to be best friends. Plus he stole my freestylin' style... don't worries Donald, I'll let you borrow it.

Swagger Meter:

Jordan 6's - gift

Jeans - (H&M) hand-me-downs*

Sweatshirt - (Goodwill Outlet) $0.83

Green Hoodie - hand-me-downs

Leather Member's Only** - (Goodwill) $7.00

*first off: When I was little hand-me-downs were embarrassing but now I take advance of them. There's nothing wrong with free clothes, that are in great use, and look great. Embrace hand-me-downs!

**Second: I am a Members Only junkie. I have about 12 different color ones (very hipster of me) And I always find them in the men's section of Goodwill, Salvation Army, Value Village, and more. My mother and father HATES them, but it's a Guttersnipe worthy item.

This cardigan, I found in a dumpster behind a Target FILLED with clothes. They only thing wrong with this sweater was a hole in the arm pit. I sewed it up, now it's good as new!

A true Guttersnipe thing to do!

Manic Monday

Well I bet ya'll have notice that I've been trying to distract you from the fact that I haven't posted an outfit in a few days.

Click away my little guttersnipe and enjoy!

The Queen of TRASH!

I have many fashion icons, but the person who takes the cake and TOPS my list, hands down:

MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS!

She is goofy, loud, crazy, FUN, and most of all original. She's not like Lady Gaga or Nicki Minaj, who are over the top, over hyped, crazed, costume, almost stupid outfits. And Marina is not a pastel plastic girlie girl like Katy Perry or Rihanna, and she is most def NOT that awful trash bag Ke$ha.

No no no.

Marina is a whole another level. Her style is effortless, playful, and kicks ass. I mean, high top sneakers with a long elegant ball gown, SIGN ME UP!

Marina is a beautiful English singer/songwriter from Greek descent who makes pure ear candy. Seriously buy her album. I find her to be a real sized woman and someone who dresses her age. Doesn't try to impress or make an character. She is 100% herself, no act.
