#OOTD: Psychedelia

Hi hi hi! So I'm back! My Christmas was really nice and New Year's was very quiet for me (not that I minded). But for Christmas I got these glasses from H0les that I had asked for! They're magical! I included my instagram video in this post to show their full glory, photos really don't do them justice--at all. As a personal Christmas present I bought myself 2 softboxes and a seamless white backdrop, I'm still figuring out both of them so just bear with it while I figure everything out and my parents got me an SLR camera FINALLY. Ugh I've gone so long without one (which is difficult as a fashion blogger).

Also! It was my first day back to school since the break!

Did you notice this dress has shoulderpads?! I'm living for it

#OOTD: As if!

The movie Clueless will always be a fashion inspiration for me. I felt like I needed a kilt in my life so I found one on eBay at a really reasonable price. But any who I spent the day walking downtown with a friend exploring different shops. Today was the day after my 6th year Vegetarianism anniversary so we went to my favorite vegan restaurant, Counter Culture, and then walked across the street to a vegan bakery, Capital City Bakery, for the first time. It was such a lovely way to spend the day.

#OOTD: Night Owl

So this was the second outfit my friend and I photographed on our double OOTD mission lasting until 1 AM. It was surprisingly cold this night and there's actually a story behind this location. She lives near a parking garage with vines growing all around the façade and I thought I wanted to photograph there but it was quite hard to reach the spot I wanted so we wandered into the garage and it was amazing! These wires are what keep the cars from falling down the middle but don't they look like sculptures!?

I'll likely return to this garage for more OOTD shoots because it was really graphic, there were many other photographable locations, and I love the industrial feel of parking garages.

#OOTD: The Factory

Hello! I feel bad for not posting and I'm super sorry! I shot 2 OOTD posts in one night at like midnight after I got off work because of it; expect the other post later this week. I wore this outfit to a book launch for my friend who was part of 512Stew, a group of UT Design Majors. I got to meet a lot of cool people and visited the nearby gallery on their campus as well which was quite inspiring.

I kinda stole the show with my outfit and I felt bad because I didn't even mean to; I had planned this outfit the night before I was even invited but I don't think I made any of my friends upset, thankfully.

#OOTD: I Own the World

Hello! I made something recently! Guess what it is! It's this hella cool dress you can see!!!!

So yeah I was bored one day and I had this idea in mind for a future project I'm putting together and I just decided to do it now!

Overall, it was pretty easy. It just took a lot of time because vinyl is incredibly cumbersome to work with.

Walking in it was more of a challenge than I thought it would be, I had to walk a bit slower than I usually do and shorten my stride but I saw some people take photos of me so it was pretty worth it.

Happy Halloween!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE! I was Shiva this year and I wore this costume to my friend's surprise birthday party. She's the one in the Wonder Woman costume. Everything worked out well, she was surprised and she wore her costume from last year to fit in!

after I got home and took the wig off, you can see my makeup better but this was after 4 hours of having fun and then laying on the carpet from being tired so know that it was better than this at the start

Shiva's Wrath AKA the mess I had to clean the next day from it

I was inspired by my absolute favorite drag queen, Raja Gemini. She not only dressed as a Hindu Goddess for RuPaul's Drag Race - Season 5 - reunion but also for her single cover of Zubi Zubi Zubi!

What are you being for Halloween? Stay safe tonight :)

#OOTD: I Mean Business

I visited the Capitol again! I hadn't planned on shooting an OOTD post but my friend suggested it so we just had my phone to work with. Sorry for the lower quality ahead of time. I found this suit at a thrift store and originally it had pants but I cut it down to shorts. The pattern is really unique; it's a glossy square pattern over a matte fabric.

there's a post about my Halloween costume coming soon....
