borrowed a whole lot of

My biggest fashion advice or tip is stealing aka "borrowing" clothes from my mother and sister. The best thing about the ladies in your life - they all have great fashion too.

This lovely jacket is my mother's. My mom has always had a great eye for style. Her color has always been and will always be black. She, unlike me, can pull of the "street ninja." Black on black on black.

  

These pants, well, I stole them from my sister a long time ago. She still hasn't noticed I have them, so I guess that's fair game and I can call them mine. Right?

   

Also - these are "fancy" sweatpants. They are widely expected as fashionable because they are cuffed. Yes, cuffed. (Or that's at least what someone else told me. Who I do trust!)

Boots (Target) $30 x Pants (my sister's, now mine)

Shirt (H&M) 2 for $10 x Jacket (my mothers and I have to give it back)

Necklace (Forever 21)

Lipstick (Bite!)

that coat

Haven't been able to do any style posts because I've been:
a.) sick
b.) busy

I am working on a new blog with my best friend j.mena. It's a social blog about Seattle called "2 girls walk out of a bar" There's no post yet... but we are working on them. The project/the blog is to show people a whole another side of Seattle's social scene. All the happening weird art shows, events, concerts, and actives that go down in this fine (overlooked) city. That "going out" isn't just for the weekends. And you don't always have to go to the bars. There's more out there you know!

  

For now I've been working non-stop and enjoying my days off.

Today was freezing cold! But it wasn't rainy; an ideal day to wear this fantastic leopard print jacket my mother got me last christmas. It not only keeps me warm but is super stylist. My mom has great taste. I got it from her. (p.s. it's where I got these great boots from too. She owns them, I just borrow.)

 

Today was yet another prefect explain of a #guttersnipe golden rules:

"Dress better than how you feel."

I went out dancing last night with some friends. Seattle goes hard on Mondays. (Well only a couple places in Seattle go hard on Monday.) NOW my phone & wallet were stolen but I am trying to stay positive. What goes around comes around.
