Girl. Gworl....GWUUUURRRRLLLLL. GYAL! This dress tho... I'll wait...

Food printed on clothes, food printed on or shaped as accessories, food in my mouth....I think it's safe to say I'm a fan.

And all things that shine, sparkle, glitter, shimmer, flash, glint, etc...I'm pretty much a fan of as well....

I was pleasantly surprised on my Day-O-Birth, with this dress, by a significant someone, who knew me well enough to know that this print is right up my alley. They also knew that the last two prints from my most recent posts were up my alley as well (HERE & HERE).

Out of all three of the dresses I didn't know which I was more excited to wear and I didn't know which really to wear first, but life really did pick for me. When it comes to clothing...there really is a time and place for it all, you have to feel it and sometimes it has to feel you. On on this day we were feeling each other.

I had this image in my head, over and over again, with me in one of my most fave jackets of all time (which is out of stock and upsets me because i wish you all could get it), and my safari hat...don't know why...just couldn't shake it.

So I just knew it had to be done.

I got my hat, my jacket, the dress, my boots that I've nearly crashed to shit (but trust me I still wear em' cuz there are no fucks given), I stacked a bunch of bracelets, and my finishing touch was a pair of pink leopard shades. PERFECT.

Don't you just love when you have an outfit on that has all of the elements that make up who you are, in one? I've had several on the blog, and they all look so vastly different from each other...but they still fully embody my style aesthetic completely, without skipping a beat.

Let's just take a moment to appreciate the view of the back of my wrinkly jacket, for the win.

As for the dress? They wouldn't let me know where they found the dress at first (for fear I would buy everything up and not allow them to gift me thing slowly...they'd be right), but I did manage to get some info out of them.

In light of the holidays I wanted to put together an outfit that had a little shimmer to it, however, I wanted it to be known that if there were any "Santa's list" that I was gonna be on this year....it was definitely gonna be the naughty one. So I threw on my spiked faux leather jacket from Forever21, a pair of tights (BECAUSE IT'S COLD GOT DANG IT), and my copper/brown hidden-stud boots. During the photo sesh of my latest post, I ripped my tights because i was being extremely rough and careless.

Between my finger jamming a hole through the leg and me crossing my legs like I don't have buckles on my boots; which then caused another hole to tear into my tights.......I just had it....I was fed up and was two seconds from going bare legged in the cold in this outfit (It didn't help that I was slightly inebriated due to the Irish cream liquor I drank in a failed attempt to keep warm, this just made me even more prone to agitation).

But this is why you have friends, they can see things you can't see because you're too busy being crazy.

As I rolled my poor forsaken tights down my thighs and I let them rest at my knees for a moment so I could continue my tangent about my "tight woes", she informed me it would be so cute if the tights were actually knee/thigh-highs...and that I should cut them.....BRILLIANT!!!!!!!

WHERE ARE THE SCISSORS?!!!!

After I cut the hell out of these tights we ventured into the cold, I died a thousand deaths because it was literally freezing and the Molly's Irish Cream I drank did nothing to keep me warm....but it did compel me to further expose my thickems.... how else were you going to see the thigh-high masterpiece...?

Overall I'm in-lust with the combination of deep berry colors and metallics of all kinds, and I'm thankful for friends who can see clearly what I would do for myself when I'm busy acting like a lunatic and are able to bring me back down to earth.
