Rise to the (tank) TOP

Can I get a woot woot for the clever title of this post? No? OK.
Creative Growth x William Scott Tank Top
This tank top has been my go-to CAJ-JU-ALL item this entire month. It's simple design and loose fit evoke the put-together-yet-laid-back vibe of another pair of more famous twins. ( Psssttttt. I'll give you a hint. It rhymes with POLSEN)

Did you guess Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen? HOW' D YOU KNOW?
All joking aside, these eighties tees are such a cute alternative to clothes that make it seem like you care.

1st Outfit:

Iris Jeans, Thrifted Knit Cardi, Toms


I threw in little touches like the shark tooth neck-ware and big brown specs for some flair. DISCLAIMER: I read books. That seems to intimidate the boys I talk to.

 Thrifted Blazer & necklace (Buffalo Exchange at Williamsburg), Silence+Noise Jeggings, Forever21 wedges




The second is a going out look. Note the zippered back on those bad-ass jeggings. Yes, they open all the way up. Yes, I have opened them up in public to prove it. Yes, they once got stuck and I spent twenty minutes trying to zip them back up. Lesson learned, don't test the fashion gods with one's vulgarity. Would also like to point out the Jeffrey Campbell knockoff wedges. They were 30 dollars.

WELCOME

Welcome ladies, (and gents, if this is the kind of stuff that tickles your fancy, no judgement here) to my blog. Never mind the fact that I should be studying for an impending calculus exam, or that my parents sternly disapprove of my obsession with clothes (don't worry, they haven't cut me off yet), I've decided to perpetuate it with a blog-tastic new hobby.

I reside in NYC. I have a twin sister. Put two and two together. twonyminutes.



No, I'm not a corporate lawyer. BUT those ARE a pair of wide-legged, checkered, wool trousers.  Theory trousers
Elbow patches seem to be on everything lately. Good thing, because my weenus* (weenuses?) need some extra warmth in this chilly NY weather. Forever21 sweater







HOORAH FOR LOAFERS! They make such wonderful companions when trekking through the concrete jungle. Gap Loafers


Rimmel black satin nail polish, Ralph Lauren sunnies, thrifted belt, thrifted necklace, Fendi watch


*weenus (n): the wrinkly skin on one's elbow. no relation to any phallic rhyming words.
