Hi my peeps! I’ve been looking for a way to share with you some of the inspirations and things I’ve been loving lately. If you follow me on Pinterest you may have already seen some of these images, but that’s OK, they’re lovely enough to see again. This is slightly similar to my recent post with Langley Fox as my “fashionspiration,” but sort of different. Hopefully you’re a fan of the 90s grunge, MEGA-BABE bloggers, snazzy street style pics, and editorials… (Inspiration images via Pinterest)
Fashionspiration
~90s, MEGA-BABE Bloggers, and Flower Power~
I have a lot of different inspirations at the moment, so they don’t all fit into one theme, but they’re a mix between 90s, bloggers, editorials, and street style. I really want to have include some sort of retro aesthetic in my outfit, whether that means a suede 90s skirt, thick platform sandals, or bell bottom jeans. I think that some of these pictures really sum that up. Overalls are also a goal of mine, mainly because of Justina Sharp, and Tumblr. There’s also been a few bloggers I turn to for inspiration nowadays, the MEGA-BABES of the blogging world, such as Tolly Dolly Posh, and Clover + Dot, as well as Tavi Gevinson, and Fashion Your Seatbelt. I’ve been loving scuba fabric, and high waisted, light wash jeans, especially the effortlessly cool, grunge or retro vibes. Pastels don’t seem to match the rest of this, but flower crowns do, so of course I had to include a few of both. Pastels and bright colors may seem to contradict each other, but those have also been really big inspirations for me as well.

~Overalls, Turtleneck Crop Tops, and Dr. Martens~
What I Wore: Mineral Wash Overall Shorts (Forever 21)//Short-Sleeved Knit Sweater (ASOS )//Black Patent Leather 1460s (Dr. Martens)//Simple, Stacked, Rope Bracelets (Assortment)
Surprise, surprise, I wore my Dr. Martens. Despite what you may have been thinking due to my Dr. Martens and flower crown lookbook, A, I do own other pairs of shoes, and B, I do wear them. But I couldn’t help myself, these clunky boots just scream grunge, and 90s fashion. Plus, Dr. Martens, are pretty much iconic, meaning they’re all over Tumblr, meaning that I was automatically effortlessly cool. I paired those beauties with another one of my personal favorites, overalls. I was considering whether I wanted to get a pair of shorts, or full length pants, but I’m glad I decided on the shorts, they just seem to match the OOTD really, very well. Despite the fact that overalls are pretty popular every summer, that’s not really one of the reasons I bought them. In fact, it was because of this crop top. I have made an executive decision, and decided that sleeveless, turtleneck crop tops are the coolest things out there, and they really compliment these overalls. I would have preferred black to match my shoes, but you have to take what you can get in sales.
Due to the fact that my local delivery has decided to be exceedingly slow, I couldn’t wear this turtleneck, but I could wear this just as pretty, yet slightly less 90s inspired shirt.
Had I owned a choker necklace I probably would’ve worn that, but instead I just wore this simple little mouth necklace, mainly because it just seemed grunge inspired. Instead stacked a bunch of simple, small, and sometimes rope bracelets, (which I do almost everyday in the summer) just to add a little flair. Oh and the flower crown… You’ve been seeing a lot of flowers, crowns, and DIYs on this blog lately, mainly related to my next big project, but no one knows what it is. Anyways, I paired one of my absolute favorite and probably most retro flower crown with this whole ensemble. Daisies, they have good vibes you know?
Well that’s that! What are some of your current “fashionspirations?” What aesthetics have you been loving? How do you translate your inspiration into an OOTD? Let me know in the comments.
