Living Comic

It's one of those side-step, tuck and roll, jump over the brick wall and whack the turtle ninja on the head with an incredibly light super hammer type of days. What does all that mean? Heck if she knows, but it perfectly explains how she feels at the moment. Being in college, being a young adult, you have to try different looks because you still don't know who you truly are until you put your hair in a faux hawk, your body in a leather mesh body suit and your booty in a skirt filled with comic strip phrases.

ABOUT THE LOOK: I don't really do many looks like this, but I love it! It gives me an excuse to act crazy because I look the part. I got the skirt from Rue 21, the body suit from Ooh La Luxe and the shoes from a thrift shop! The skirt is my favorite part; so bright and colorful and OUT THERE! But you have to be careful about what you mix with it. Notice how I used all black for everything else so that the outfit isn't over powerful.

Touch The Sky

The temperature outside is scorching, so why wear real clothes? She decides that a vintage lace dress, a bandeau and hot pants are all she needs. And her hair. It's always so long, so tangled, so hot. It's been time for a change, but the sense of security that comes with long hair is hard to let go of; She fakes it instead. The breeze races throughout the corn rows and rustles the fake faux hawk on her head. How peaceful.

ABOUT THE LOOK: I went to Arizona on a mission trip and we traveled to this spectacular thrift shop. It sold me the dress and boots for two dollars each. Did you just faint? I know I did when I heard the price. Anyway, it's festival season and I thought some of you might like to wear something like this out to one of the burning hot festivals. P.S. all the jewelry I'm wearing is 100% Native American made. Most of it from Navajos. Love it!

Fake Faux Hawk Anyone?

 It's insane what having a fake faux hawk does to your personality. All day, the only thing I wanted to do was put on a pair of short cut off shorts (which I have a surprise for all of you involving those!), a loose tank top and some combat boots. I also wanted to wave my tongue around in the wind for some reason. Plus, I have the same style today and my boss just said, "Shelby, are you having a bad hair day or is this a new style?" I said, "New style, duh."
