I might look all cute & happy, but I was feeling pretty bad ass in this outfit.
fun fact: this moment wasn't staged, it was authentic—a group of people walked passed my girlfriend and I taking these pix and were totally judging, so I just sat there, smiling & wavin' because I had my idgaf #ootd on 👊
one of my favorite things about fashion is how it makes you feel. don't you just feel like a better human when you have the right clothes, shoes and accessories on? even deeper than that, it can make you reminisce, especially since trends repeat.
these shoes were totallyyyy something I would've worn in elementary & middle school. my mother pointed that out this wknd and I agreed. while I transformed the look in my later years, it was inspired by trends she dressed me in as a child. when times were easier (and more affordable), amirite?
I got my new fenty x puma creepers from century 21 for a fcking stealllll. while I have the luxury of working for said retailer, I always love saving money on designer things, especially shoes and these off-price stores are where it's atttt. (& no, this isn't a "sponsored post" or an "ad," I just like talking about on the greatness of saving.)
these black suede babes are from century 21's site but it breaks my heart to say they're currently sold out of them. you can buy 'em full price from saks fifth ave, neiman & bergdorf...or you can buy them on sale from puma's site!
here's to never paying full price because who tf wants
to do that when you can save money & buy more sh!t?
SHOP THE LOOK:
You're so cute in this outfit girl, and love the story behind the picture!!
