recent fashion inspo

 movements, people and even articles of clothing that have been inspiring how i want to look recently (late october-early november)

colorful knitwear. i really like warm-toned yarn, usually gives it a 70s feel. i want to thrift a colorful, soft scarf soon, hopefully before it gets even colder. i especially enjoy these kinds of pieces when they’re an accent to a neutral toned outfit, like browns and muted greys and greens. 

thick silver. i’ve been thinking about knights and medieval art a lot, especially the portrayals that were revived in the 70s, like excalibur and maybe even monty python’s holy grail. i love the dreamy, flowing look of them, with glowy yellows and whites against grainy blue… of course accompanied by the silver armor of the knights. 

piercings, etc. i just gauged my ears up to 1g (7mm) with metal tunnels, and i’m surprised at how much i like it. i always assumed i would be a plug only guy but i’m sooo in love with how it looks. my septum is also at a 12g right now, unfortunately, the weather is making it hurt a lot. my plan is to size it up to 10g or 8g, and put in a biig captive bead ring soon. as i expected, i don’t really like the look of a pincer (unpopular!!). i have also been dreaming of piercing my lip (right labret) and of course, my eyebrow… eventually…

like always i’ve been thinking about leather. i got a thick leather jacket in september and it is awesome. i need to get some pins to wear on it; i’ve been trying to find some old vintage ones, especially with weird art or political messages. unfortunately my local antique stores mostly sell trash!!! but i am also in the market for some leather pants, i think, especially anything with laces, straps or metal buckles on them. HOT!!!

one last thing… been deeply missing this blue sailor coat i thrifted last winter and i can’t seem to find at all. i dream of it every day.
