The Crystal Which Held the World Intact



I'm not used to posting during the middle of the week. The middle of a school week. When there's school. And school is going on. And school will be going on tomorrow as well, and was going on the day before. Like, I'm gonna wake up tomorrow having to go to school. You see, on Wednesday mornings, our school works in the way that we go to school later, an hour and ten minutes later to be exact. It's very exciting but also very strange that I can wake up and take pictures at a time when I would normally already be at school. You know what? I'm just going to go do homework. This is too odd for me (but hopefully more outfit posts will occur on Wednesdays). Methinks it's time to take some government notes, yay laws!

Before I go, I shall ask you lovely people a question: what one is your favorite pieces of jewelry? I think one of mine is this necklace, 'cause I feel like after putting it on I'm the half blood prince or something.

Top: Bisou Bisou
Skirt: Mossimo via Target
Belt: Fossil, thrifted for $3 (awuh yeah)
Shoes: Chelsea Crew
Necklace: a little vender in Rock City

I like those shoes, and I remember having a necklace like that when I was a kid. It brings back nice memories, since I loved my crystal necklace.

Allow me to use excessive hyperbole to prove my point: my jaw just freakin' DROPPED when I saw that skirt. Know whyyy? 'Cause I've totally been thinking that I really would like a red pleated skirt. So I'm all *grabby grabby* wanting that skirt now. And by that, I mean clothes swap. Clothes swap?? I don't know. I'm so tired, I'm rambling. I love the outfit! Needless to say.

Also, I think mine is either the necklace (hands-free and doesn't get in the way) or the finger pinkie ring. But I don't wear jewelry often anyway...

Favorite jewelry? I have this ring with a snail etched into it that I just love.

Rio said...

I love the colors in this outfit- unexpected but they work perfectly! Your necklace is beyond rad too! As for my favorite piece of jewelry... I dunno I love all of my jewelry haha! My skeleton earrings from my latest post rank pretty high though! Looking forward to your Wednesday late day posts! :)

you have no idea how much i adore you in red! that skirt is perfect with this outfit and those shoes. and that necklace is fantastic! i'd definitely feel like the half blood prince as well if i had a necklace like that. speaking of necklaces...i wore your mustache necklace to the chictopia10 conference (you'll see pictures in my next post) and i got a million compliments on it! i proudly told them you made it and they were beyond shocked. :) <3

POSTING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK?! What a REBEL.

I want to make a joke like "WHat's black and white and red all over?" A newspaper! Sadly, you are not wearing white. Nor are your a newspaper. HMMM.

Favourite jewlery? Hmm, well I wear these two rings from Peru daily as they match my uniform nicely and make me look artsy. So. Yeah. Probably that.

That necklace is sooo pretty.

I feel like it's so hard to pair black and red well (at least for me for whatever reason), but that red is the perfect shade and drapes so well that it looks perfect with your black pieces. Love it!

LyddieGal said...

You are totally the half blood prince(ss). I love the red skirt, i love the cutout peeptoe pumps!
You are so lucky you get to go to school late!!! Wish I could go to work that late, hehe.

Chic on the Cheap

LOL sometimes it's cool to deviate from the norm instead of sticking to such a strict regiment because it makes it seem like blogging is such a chore and you have to do it on the weekends instead of whenever you want to do it. WHOA that was long answer to your question, haha. OMG I LOVE YOUR SHOES. I don't wear jewelry very much, but I like lucite stuff.

sallyannie☆ said...

Pretty! Your skirt looks really soft and comfortable!

I'm really bad with jewellery...I always lose it!
