I've been spotting Joanna Pybus all over fashion blogs with her big eyed furry creations. Her pieces have a bold yet simple aesthetic. I must say, those clutches are to die for...definitely on my want list. Check out her site and shop.

Oh my holy 80's prom bomb dress!
I enjoy playing dress up. No doubt, you'll always find me in extremely different styles from day to day. I find it to be an interesting social experiment, you can become "whoever" you want to be. It can be a glimpse into times past. It can teach lessons on how we perceive one another. It truly is an art.

I always wanted to wear these extravagant dresses when I was little. My dreams have finally come true. Not gonna lie, I felt a *little* silly wearing this outfit for this shoot...but looking at the pics, I LOVE IT!
I used color-blocking to add a trending touch to it. The dress is from American Caner Society Discovery Shop in Lyndhurst. Soooo glad I found it...and at a great price. Prancing around in it from time to time will be a must do!

Here's a casual street wear look mixing neutrals. I love wearing a warm chestnut brown and black together with layers, layers, LAYERS. Long oversized tanks, sweaters and socks will for sure keep you comfy and warm until spring finally hits.

It's all about layers, knots and shag right now. I still haven't gotten my hands on a shag jacket yet...so in the mean time, i've been pondering an easy diy to rock this fun trend. This scarf idea came from Eco Shag. I almost bought one of their scarves...but I'd rather save money, experiment and learn for myself. 

I just took an old t-shirt and cut it into strips. The strips got knotted to one another making a long strand that formed an "infinity loop". You can make as many of these loops as you want and at whatever length to form your scarf. Mine is able to be wrapped around 3 times.

I'm pretty excited about it, after all it is a free scarf...but I must say, the Eco Shag scarves are much cuter! I think next time I'll try cutting skinnier strips or using a tee with heavier jersey fabric. 

What do you think?

I'm very excited about this Shag look for Fall. This Muppet-esque-ness screams awesome. 

If you are wanting this style you have to act fast...these jackets are moving quick! The ones I've been eyeing are now sold out...heartbroken! Some DIY scarf action will have to do until I can get my hands on a jacket.
