glitter in her viens

Just for kicks you should check out this video
{Because kristin chenoweth in generally just amazing}


Good morning my beauties! 

Well I haven't really done a fashion post in a while 
so here it is!! 

 If you guys recall my pinterest post
You can sift through some of my style boards 



Here is a look that I found on pinterest that I recreated  
   


Sweater: mom's closet (similar found here or here) Skirt: Tj Max (similar here or here) Leggings: DownEast Outfitters (leggings are an off price item so can only be bought in stores. They are so worth it though because they are fleece inside!)


Lately here in Cedar we have been having some warmer weather

by warmer I mean 20-25 degrees
 but after the below zero weather we have been having

the weather today almost feels tropical
there is even a little bit of humidity in the air because of the light rain we've been having

With all this tropical like weather
{and my strange addiction to pinterest and online window shopping}
I have been really thinking 
and starting to develope
a look for this up coming summer

I know ... I know
I am getting way far ahead of myself
but with all this cold weather I need something to keep me warm!
[other than the prince charming that i told you guys about in my last post]

My style that I have currently develope
I would say is pretty put together

{it tends to have a bit of a vintage or old fashion kind of feel to it}

The style that I am thinking about for summer
is definitely a bit more edgey
[I know my mom is not going to like this one very much]
sorry mom i love you


recently I went into one of the little boutiques here in town
where I found this black sweater with skulls on it
  {It was one of those over sized sweaters with kind of an ugly christmas sweater feel to it}     
I'm not really sure why I was drawn to it because skulls are usually not my thing

but for some reason it has totally captivated me
I loved everything about it
{minus the price tag}
and have been day dreaming about it for several days now

I've made the sweater and studs  my inspiration for this summer's style
 I also reeeeally want an alcohol shirt 
{don't ask me why ... I just do} 

 Some of the crafts I want to do can be found
here  
Some of my the looks that I love can be found 
here 



and now for a montage
with a little bit of side commentary
{think of it as a bit of a fashion lust diary}

 ~Enjoy ~
  ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

a bow bathing suit

bangles stacked all the way up my wrists

giant floppy hats

monogrammed bracelet for my ankle ... OBSESSED 

I must stud one of my bras
(any good suggestions on where to get some good studs..?)

  
backless dress

backless anything 
 

studded shorts and bralet

who wears bras anyways 

simple designer t-shirt

 super cute bralets at top shop 
{wish i could afford some}

lace everything and deep arm slits

IF I was going to a music festival or concert this summer
I would wear this 

backless AND ruffles AND high waisted shorts ?! 
i think my heart just skipped a beat

half jean jackets maybe even with some studs 
[Mom: I still can't find that white one I made from the outfit grandma pat sent you. Please keep an eye out for it
my closet is craving it]

not having this shirt this summer is not an option
{if anyone knows where I can find it pleeease let me know!}
 

wearing that studded bra I'm going to make underneath
... oh dear i think i might be going a little over board ...  

skulls!


I think you get the idea 
 Hope you all are enjoying this
not so tropical tropical weather we are having

if not you can always grab some blankets and build a fort
use your imagination a little 
watch a movie and eat some popcorn
 or snuggle up with a book and some tea  
{run away to never land} 



Till next time my beauties


Love Always,
Lexi
