Missing the Mark

I love fashion. It's a huge passion of mine (I hate the fact that those words rhyme: fashion & passion) But I feel like some people take it a tad too serious. But then again you can say that about anything: music, movies, food, painting, being tumblr famous (a phrase I still don't understand...)

However with fashion I think it's different. I might not be as big as other fashion bloggers that I admire (like Sincerely, Jules, Karen at Where Did U Get That, or Karla's Closet) but I hope to be someday. I just hope I can inspire at least one person to get excited about fashion. To have them learn you don't need to have the Chanel, the Louis Vuitton, or even the TopShop to be stylist. You just need the right attitude!

Fashion is a club anyone can take part in. You just got to make the right splash to be remembered or to stand out.

boots (Nordstrom rack) $20.00

pants (Levi's) $15.00

shirt (DIY Ripped shirt)

sweater (my mother's/hand-me-down)

jean jacket (Goodwill) $3.00

scarf (freebie) found it in a "give away" pile

necklace (Target) $1.99

"Another person's trash is...

another person's treasure." To be a real guttersnipe you must live this, breathe this, be it!

Bin diving is basically the hunt through someone else's "trash" and turning it into your personal treasure. Another way this is true is going through a friend's giveaway/goodwill pile. I have no problem doing this. My friends all have such great style, why wouldn't I take advance of that?

The key is to not worry about "pride" and what people might think. If a friend offers you this chance, why pass it up? It's free clothes.

I am always reminding my friends (this time of year is best because of spring cleaning) to let me see their clothes (and other things) before they sell or give them away. You just got to keep in mind to return the favor...
