So Punk?

hellooo 1 follower :) i dearly love you and thank you for following me!
busy busy busy. school is hell, but i do it for the friends. everyone's story right?
anyways, so i've been hanging around my kind of.. Scene/Punk friends and I like how they dress.. however, is it fashiony?

I think theres a way to mix the two styles. I want to look.. rebellious and fashionable at the same time. But its a matter of what to spare and what to splurge.
Do you substitute the studded belt for the leather belt? the skinny jeans for the
slacks? the band tees for the vnecks and dress shirts? I'm still confused on this
dilema myself.



My temporary solution? I think we should look to accessories, and perfect pairing. Pair the band tee, tucked in with some slacks. Try the skinny jeans and studded belt
with a collared shirt. Its really all about the combinations! These thoughts have made me want to upload some more LookBook looks, so I think I will start uploading more of them soon.

Thanks for listening to my ideas ♥
Love all my readers & Stay tuned!

DIY cutoff jeans

Hello my beloved empty audience ♥ You may be small and nonexistant, but I post just for you! (and moi) How have you all been? I'd honestly love to know. But It is nice to get all these thoughts and opinions about fashion down somewhere! Atleast I know Hyewon checks on this :)

Anyway, back to todays subject, DIY Cut off jeans! (Do it Yourself)
Recently I was reading Adam Gallagher's blog and I saw his lookbook look,
















Hang with me -Adam G.

And I noticed his wonderful shorts he's wearing, and to my amazement, They were DIY! So after reading this I immediately searched the web for tutorials on how to do this. After combining many techniques from different tutorials, I give you my Final product!


I chose to use a quite old pair of Baggy Beige Levi that went past my feet. After about 3 hours total, researching and work, This is the outcome. I think they turned out MUCH better than I expected, and I'm truly in love with them. Ive worn them and gotten many compliments so I DO RECCOMEND trying this at home! Just be careful with the bleach ;)

These shorts are a great addition to any summer look, or simply if the weather is getting too hot to handle. Its an older trend for the guys, but making a female pair of them applies the same concept, just cutting more fabric off and shortening the length. For women these have seem to have been in style for a long time. They're casual, comfortable, and they can be cheap and made by you which is the greatest part in this economy! I am seriously out of money at the moment and you can definitely count on simple projects like this for new additions to wear.








Next thing to try? DIY Triangle Tee shirt!

Thanks For Reading;

fashion fear

Hello my followers! (which i think is only Hyewon..) How have you been? I've been doing pretty great! HighSchool is so easy, like barely any homework and stuff. And fashion wise, ive been doing alright. Except for one thing that is troubling me and my friend; Fashion Fear.

This may not be exactlyy what it sounds like; we're not afraid of fashion, its more of the situation, we're scared of the judgment. Since we're just freshmen its hard to be bold without getting ridiculed. But today, I think finally we should just say screw the haters, and do what we want, and dress how we like.

"Rock it how you like it & if you want to achieve greatness, stop asking for permission."


This quote to me, is amazing. We shouldn't give a F**k what people think about us. Especially for something like fashion. It is a way to express ourselves and our feelings, and really break apart from the crowd and let your individuality shine. Don't let others "standards" hold you back from what you want to wear and be. You are in control of yourself and you should wear what ever you want and rock it. We need to stop living in fear, fear of what people may think; what they may say about us; because : Who really cares? Sure some people might think youre weird, odd and strange, but since when have any of those things been bad?



If the world was filled with normal people, what kinda world would we be living in? I cannot fathom a thought such as that. We are who we are, clothing and all. So let's be weird. Let's be different. Let's be strange. Let's be fashionable, let the haters hate. What matters in the end is if we are happy ourselves. Never be afraid of fashion. It's a part of who you are.

I wanted to dedicate this post to my dear friend Sara.
