Today’s Attire : Tetris Skirt

by jennine on January 29, 2008

My skirt looks like a woolen 80’s video game. When I saw this vintage reconstructed skirt at American Rag, I knew I loved the bright  wooly pattern, but I didn’t think I would love it as much as I do, in a wearable way. I mean, I tried it on over my jeans… a practice I do out of pure laziness. And the black belt. I put it back on the shelf, walked out of the store, and returned because I had this janky Forever 21 belt that was falling apart by the microsecond.  And now, I practically wear this belt every day. Perhaps, it’s time to get a new wide belt, but as a tip, I’d go with the woven leather again, just because it breathes easier.

The shoes I picked up some months ago at Mascara Vintage, 80’s purple suede with a zip and cutouts. The heel is a little wobbly, but wearing it around the office should be fine.

awww! this is an awesome one, girl. that reminds me I have this crazy dress, with a highly similar pattern, u gotta see it. I have to fix from the side it ripped from hoping my butt on my bike. its a funny reminder, I’ve gotten comments even from old dudes at liquor stores that it reminds them of a childhood curtain (the coolest compliment!) talk about an icebreaker, now hand me that bottle of jack mister :)
