This Isn't Myspace...Or Is It?


Ralph Lauren Denim & Supply Dress (available at macy's)
H&M Necklace
Seychelles Boots

So if you never put your camera on a self-timer and made a makeshift tripod using outdoor furniture, did you ever even live? Front cameras, selfie sticks-- who needs 'em? I'll take this method any day for selfies. Not to mention, this was my go-to method of taking photos during my myspace days.


See? Young ootdbymaggie had the right idea. The only thing that would make this photo better is a sepia filter and a song lyric caption. I would definitely set this as my default.

Anyway, in the outfit above this ~vintage~ pic from 2006, I am wearing a floral dress, a statement necklace, high socks and my metallic booties(shocker). Bag dress are a huge trend right now and they look good on everyone. Try wearing this style next time you go out (and try taking a photo of your outfit myspace style) (just kidding) (or am I?).

Also, if you want to read more about my middle school days, check out my post featuring high socks and jean skirts here

Peace,

I Look Like A Country Singer Who Is Trying To Get Into Dubstep


Philip Lim for Target Jacket
Apartment 9 Sweater
Seychelles Booties

The title says it all. The distressed blue jeans & cowgirl boots= country singer...The floral bomber jacket= internet dubstep artist....The entire outfit= dubstep country artist. My name would probably be Electric Carrie Underwood...Or Florida Georiga Line feat. Nelly.

^If that doesn't make you cringe I don't know what will. Anyway, despite the alter ego I made up for this outfit, I actually really dig this look. I'm beginning to incorporate a little taste of southern style into my overall personal style. What? I know. A few months ago, my teen angst was at an all time high(or All Time Low, because the band is so ~angsty~), so I would've never thought I would appreciate my southern roots. However, as I have matured(srry barfing), I've learned that where we come from makes us who we are, so why would I not incorporate who I am into my personal style?

Okay I'm done getting sentimental now. Maybe I will become a country dubstep artist.

Love,
Maggie


Hobo Chic



Free People Top
Paige Denim Jacket
Lauren Conrad for Kohl's Jeans
Seychelles Booties
Beanie from Urban Outfitters

If you follow me on Instagram, you know that my bio reads "I post outfits everyday that I don't look like a hobo." Well, sometimes that statement can be iffy. I dress borderline hobo on a daily basis. This outfit was no exception. The beanie, jean jacket and plaid shirt are dead giveaways. However, the metallic booties and bright jeans gave the outfit just enough normality to make me look semi put-together. Or as I like to call it, hobo chic (patent pending).

Peace,

You Don't Need a Boyfriend to Wear Boyfriend Jeans


Sweater, Jeans, and Necklace- all from H&M
Seychelles Boots

Boyfriend jeans. The name of these ~trendy~ pants is misleading, you do not need a boyfriend to rock a pair of these. Boyfriend jeans are everywhere. Nothing is stopping you from going out to the local Target and picking up a pair of these (if only finding an actual boyfriend was that easy). I love this new style of pant, because my jeans have always been baggy #thxmom. However, because these jeans are baggy, sometimes this can be difficult to style. My advice is to pair them with a tight top, or tuck the top in-- that why your entire outfit isn't baggy. Other than that, the possibilities with boyfriend jeans are endless! I know I'm gonna steal a pair of my boyfriend's jeans! (pictured below).

Dogs>boys
