You know how people say "no white after labor day"? Well gotta wear as much white as I can before this weekend!

White plus denim always works plus a scarf for some color!

Kimono from Japan + Forever 21 Vest

Playing around with different textures here: lace dress underneath, fuzzy vest, plus kimono, suede shoes, and metal accessories. I'm not sure if it all works, but I really like pairing black with green. Tell me what you think! :)

Great Outdoors

Pulling out My Fair Birdie hair piece yayyyy I know its kind of random wearing a bird in my hair but all the feathers make for a very fun hair accessory and plus its totally unexpected right?

Plaid shirts are a must in any closet. I wear this thing everyday practically. And so are brogues. I just went to Forever 21 the other day and bought every size 8 pair of brogues I could find there. I'm sure the sales associates thought I was too obsessed.

And the whole outfit feels sort of outdoor-sy so I figured the antler necklace works perfectly with this outfit. Got this one from Nina Ramone. I love how she polishes these oversized antler pieces, and hangs it on a single chain to emphasize the simplicity of the design. It's very different from her other pieces which use lots of layering and multiple chains usually, which I also love too!

Bodycon Dress + Denim Jacket

This isn't really my usual style but I've seen so many people wear black bodycon dresses paired with denim so I figured I'd try it out. I can't figure whether this outfit is casual or a little dressed up.

Open back dress...sexyyyy. I prefer open backs to low cut dresses hahhaa. And this is also my favorite bodycon style--super short plus long sleeves.

Forever 21 Shoes + Lace Top

Finally found a long sleeve lace top that wasn't also a turtleneck. This one's from Wet Seal. I'm wearing a random bra top underneath for some modesty haha.

AlphaBetaChic

I love the way black and olive green go together. And brown belts go with everything.

AlphaBetaChic

Favorite new shoes of the moment. Super comfy wedge booties from Forever 21 which make me feel super tall. Yay!

AlphaBetaChic

Also, you might have noticed I always do this weird twist thing with my belts because I hate the way the end sticks out horizontally if you buckle it correctly.

AlphaBetaChic

Not so sure if the chain harness goes with this outfit. Also, knee high socks or no socks??? Tell me what you think!!!

I'm wearing a Wet Seal lace top, Forever 21 skirt, studded belt and knee highs from Japan, DIY chain harness, and Forever 21 shoes.
