…outfit post: second skin…
(moment of vanity)

October 16 2010

I was in a pretty pissy mood today, so I figured I’d take pictures in the most emo place I could think of: a parking lot.  Ooh, moody lighting, oooooooh.

H&M leather shirt
maxi dress that needs to become a skirt
Rossmore & vintage rings

I’m sure no one here is surprised, but I am a huge fan of leather.  So when the proposition of procuring a nude shirt made of the stuff presented itself, I jumped on it.

Note: always call ahead before running out to an actual store.  Always.

Unfortunately, this caramel-colored leathery goodness had to hang in wait for a time when the outside temperature wasn’t going to test the limits of my breast and buttock sweat glands (thank this one for that verbiage there).

In other news, I’m feeling this long skirt movement.  A lot.

    Love me some long skirts. I love that shirt on you too. H&M has some pretty impressive leather pieces this season.

    It’s a dress I got from Ross ages ago. I never wear it as a dress. I just need to cut the damn thing already.

    This is so cool, even my boyfriend commented on these photos :)

    I love that top. I tried some of the leather stuff at H&M, but somehow, it didn’t hug me like it does you. Second skin, indeed! Great buy.

    XXo,
