A little bit more me

If you are trying to take a step away from "lame," here's a good start.

Apply your personal style to every "normal" item. Yeah spice up that ugly jansport backpack with rhinestones or superglue feathers to that ugly headband!

For my project I used:
ugly black jansport backpack
bottle of stencil spray
sparrow stencil
pair of scissors
cut up old rag

1. Choose the placement of your stencil.

2. Cover areas you don't want sprayed

3. Spray chosen area from 6-10 inches away

4. Let dry for one hour & remove stencil

5. Voila!

My spray paint blobbed a bit, so I took a sharpie and covered the spray spots that weren't meant to be sprayed. No biggie :D

I've always hated wearing backpacks- always feel frumpy and a little bit too much like everyone else. Some of my friends have patches & what not on their backpacks, but I can never decide on one to advertise- so this was my solution. Hope it works out for you :D

HORRAY


FOR ONE THOUSAND HITS :D


Thanks for being wonderful you fierce followers!

Animal instinct

Thrifted blouse, Cheap Monday pants, Urban Outfitter leather lace ups

So I walk into my psychology class a few minutes late and scuttle across the room to find the last empty seat. I notice my professor is coincidentally wearing a very similar leopard blouse. I exhale as I sit down, chuckle to myself, then start the essay portion of my exam. Later that day, I arrive to music class where my witty, South African accented music professor is wearing an animal print blouse with matching jacket. I guess good style is at it's peak at my community college :)
Honestly though, do I look like a women in her 40's? Hahaha!

Cool tank top!

This reminds me so much of freaky tee shirts I would wear when I was a child. Super 90's. Thought you guys would get a kick out of it. I asked the guy if he knew what the photos were supposed to be of, and he had no idea. So he said I could just stare for a while. Pretty entertaining.

I don't know guys, I'm not the biggest fan of techno and highlighter "fashion" but I'll definitely agree that Love Fest is a must-see.
It's the ultimate people-watching opportunity :)
