BUT THEM JEANS THO...

by Jamila Pierre


Ok so I am super loving this entire look; mostly because it hits all of the notes of casual, comfy, cute, with a side order of edge (all in one), but also because it has my favorite elements....floral, moto, and leather.

I saw this top and was super excite to own it, it only cost five beans and though it only came as large as an XL...it seemed stretchy enough. My home skillet peeped it and felt the need to cop it as well, I mean who can pass up such a steal for such a cute top at such an awesome price? It gives off this whole I'm totally not trying to be cute...but I am anyhow.

Unfortunately, I was blessed with some MAJOR arm-action, and the seam of the top of the sleeve  was not entirely created to house all of it's glory. Don't get me wrong it definitely works, but...it could work so much more if it were just one size up.

I paired it with my lock necklace and these borrowed sunnies from the my main, and I called it a day for the upper deck.

Now on to these pantalones. First let me say that it SUPER sucks how I can't find them on the site anymore. When I first hauled them on my YouTube channel, I linked them in the description and everything, but sadly they are gone. However, this look works with any acid wash, distressed, or moto pant/jean. It's the whole juxtaposition thing I always talk about here on the blog. Floral and Biker Bish Chic is always a go, and if you can find ways to dial it down or turn it all the way up effortlessly...DO IT.

Soooooooooo.......I consider myself a fairly authentic and unique individual, but sometimes (somehow) I end up coming up with like-minded ideas as others.  I know you may be thinking to yourself, "Chill out...it's not that serious...", but to me it kinda is most times. I've gone so far as to not post things because others have, even if I've independently thought to do it. I just really have something against being like any other crayon in the box (or being in a box period). 

But sometimes...I really just don't care. This was one of those times.

When I first saw this duster blouse thing-a-ma-bobber, I knew more or less how I wanted to wear it and it didn't matter the external influences. And though there are several ways it can be worn (to which I will eventually showcase here on Le Bloggitay), I went with the no-brainer approach, but put my edgy spin on it because...have we met?

As hard as it is for me, this isn't the first time I've had a "twinning" moment. I usually steer clear of it unless I'm dedicating a post to someone, but I think most people who have this piece kind of went in a similar direction off the bat. There's actually a few looks that didn't make it on here because I didn't post it in time and then BOOM, someone comes out with almost an identical outfit. **Waves fist in the air** #SOB #BloggerWoes

And then the world crumbles around you and you have to reevaluate life because you spent all this time on a shoot for no reason....LMFAO!!! Too real a moment? No seriously, I'm not that torn up about it, even though it can get annoying sometimes, but it's a reality I feel is not discussed at times...plus it's kind of funny to me.

In any event, here we are.
