JEEPERS CREEPERS.

Where do I even start.

I grew up on the Lower East Side, what’s sad…..? I haven’t been there in ages, it’s changed so much from what I saw last. It makes me kind of sad. I remember walking the streets of St. Marks, I’ve eaten all of the Ray’s pizza after heavily partying the night away at some rave or concert, the loitering at all of the local franchises; shout out to Micky D’s, Eat fresh, and Taco Hell (at least that’s what we called them….kinda still do).

My style has evolved greatly since then, but I’d like to think the essence still remains. I’m still the rebellious little BADASS I’ve always been, and I wouldn’t change a got dang thing.

With that said, is it no wonder most of my looks let that edge out to play so often? I’ve only traded my wide-legs in for some faux leather pants (especially that of the moto variety), my band hoodies for moto jackets, and my ratty bookbags for variants of unique handbags. The shoes…? The shoes have always been apart of the arsenal, creepers are my/THE slowest of jamz. I actually think I could just own all of that were ever made, by every brand who makes/carries them, but the ones from T.U.K…? Now THEY know how make a creeper bomb AF.

Let’s discuss; the jacket was a mere twenty five buckaroos (get into that ish right there), my moto pantalones were also a steal at $15, the top is a basic and a must from Target, and a pair of pristine creepers were only $40 second-hand from Buffalo Exchange (which is crazy AF because a pair like these go for well over $100 regularly).

The shades were from Rainbow for under $5 and the necklace was from Telco for $3. Now, can we please acknowledge how it doesn’t take much more than a vision and most times a bit of creativity, and thou sauce over flowith.

For maximum drip, I always, and I do mean always, end up either cuffing or pushing up the sleeves of all my shirts and jackets (whether neatly or haphazardly). It’s hard for me to feel intentionally styled by myself, I need the tszuj.

How do you spruce up or complete your looks? Who knows, maybe I’ll adopt some of them. Comment bellow, maybe I’ll even incorporate the tips you (my luvs) give, and I’ll just have no choice but to shout you out for your awesome tips. I spend a lot of time dispensing tips on how to find awesome inexpensive pieces, who says I know everything….I don’t (**clutches pearls**), so I’m open to hear from YOU, because my raging babes out there are drippin’ with as much sauce as I am and I’m dead curious what you have to say. Speak ya mind luvs, speak your mind.

FRINGE-ALICIOUS.

So if you’ve been paying close attention to my current obsessions, you know I’ve been heavily going steady with the Famous brand store.

No, I’m not sponsored by them….they don’t know I even exist actually, but it changes nothing about how I feel about this store. Like I said in prior posts, their pricing, in conjunction with their color coded deals, make for an overwhelmingly enjoyable shopping adventure.

I’ve legit found sooooo many ridiculously fab pieces, at some of the lowest prices around, and it seriously gives ya girl a THRILL!!!

For instance, look at this denim colored fringed dress, HUNNAAAAY. I saw it hidden between some other fringed items (which I’m sure you already know I also bought), and it was the first thing to scream out at me. At first glance it seemed as though it might not fit, especially because it barely went beyond and XL, but I persevered and kept my eyes peeled whilst canvasing the entire store for at minimum one more size up.

I couldn’t get it out of my head but after going through almost all of the racks, I just about gave up…..and then there it was, a XXL just waiting for me to make my move and buy her up (all for a whopping $7…you read right, $7).

If you’re coming to the blog and staying awhile to catch up, you’ll begin to see a pattern. I love a good deal, and I will hunt one to the end of the earth. I’m a FIRM believer on boujee on a budget. Most often, people are shocked to hear where I’ve acquired my pieces and for how much. Stick with me kid, and I’ll have you serving lewks AND still be able to pay bills, eat out, and keep a roof over your head….just to name a few.

I’ve also spoken at great length about my love of certain color combos, a warm toned brown (on the orange spectrum), paired with any and all blues? Très magnifique! So, I’m not gonna bore you with all of that….this time, **Laughs Out Loud**

The fringe on this dress is just f’ing eggzzzellent ** Mr. Burns voice **, it gives just the right amount of sass even though it’s incredibly casual. And to think, if I had been “too good” to bargain shop or had I given up on the hunt….I would’ve not come across such a piece. I’m tellin’ you, don’t ever sleep on ANY store, ANY venue, etc…

You never know what you’ll find.
