I Sip My Kool-Aid

Watch locket necklace: Front & Co
Sweater: Suzy Shier
Leggings, purse: Zara
Shorts: Garage
Sapphire bracelet: ICE.com
Gold watch-band bracelet: Urban Outfitters
Heels: Aldo


I really really like this outfit, so please don't diss it. My feelings will be hurt. I know black and brown is supposed to be a no-no, but screw the rules right? One's gotta live a little and rules are for chumps. I think I could wear a sack with these heels and it would still look hot to me. Too bad they are as easy to walk in as a math exam is to write. I wish Mr. Artist could be like other blogger's boyfriends and take endless hi-res photos of me in my outfits and support me while I totter around in ridiculously high shoes. Oh well, at least he is now convinced on the amazingness that is leggings.

Thanks go out to my latest music yogi, D. Thai of KillahBeez for this week's song. He turned me on, quite literally, to this funky little band called Sleigh Bells. I like how nonchalantly rebellious and dirty they are. Check them out!

Hot, HAWT heels!!! Black and brown are supposed to be a no-no? Whoops, if that's the case, then I've been committing fashion-faux pas for sometime now ;P

I think most fashion rules were made to broken! I love the way Jennifer Aniston rocks basic black tanks with a fabulous brown belt! I love your outfit!

Livie said...

yes those heels would make pretty much anything HAWT! love how higih they are - i think as small girls we love feeling "taller" when we teeter around on 4 inch heels like we own the world.

lol re your bf and the hi res photos. i know what you mean.

as for rules, who needs them?

RicAdeMus said...

Diss? What is there to say except for "WOW"? If Mr. A were the possessive type, I could imagine him loving and hating the outfit. It's very...Wow!

rachaelkrystina said...

Nothing to diss about - I'm all for wearing black and brown together if the brown is as lovely and warm as that! The bag it great, it has a bit of a vintage-y look.

And those shoes, yeow!
