My style tends to be on the modest side; covered shoulders, knee-length skirts and longer, covered chest and covered head. It's my personal preference not to reveal too much skin; feeling adequately covered helps me feel less distracted about what I'm wearing. With that said, on this particular day it was gearing up to be a properly blazing hot summer day, and I wanted to take advantage of the weather to wear some of my shorter clothing. The blouse and skirt are both by Retroscope Fashions, which designs neovictorian-styled clothing of various levels of wearability. I like this combo because it's true to its aesthetic, but not off-putting or overwhelmed with ruffly madness. To take the edge off the high gothiness I added some simple canvas flats and a striped tote bag.I'm also wearing my round sunglasses which seem to have come back in style lately (maybe thanks to Lady Gaga, with her bizarre self?) That's fine with me; makes it easier to stock up on them before they go back out of style again. ;o) |
