Sometimes I wonder why we dress the way we dress. Is it because fashion magazines tell us 'prints are in' or because the famous girl on Lookbook wore her tights under her shorts. Nowadays we are all try to fit under one tab, different; but if the different tab is full of the same kind of thing is it really different? In the fashion world there are lots of what I like to call 'fashion stereotypes.' There's the tomboy, the girly girl, the punk rocker, the bohemian queen and the list goes on. Do you ever wonder how you shifted to the stereotype you most relate with?

When I started to think about the reasons on why I decided to dress the way I do I always found myself coming back to being different. I didn't want to wear the basic jeans and t-shirt combo and I didn't want to be the next Lolita princess, but I knew I wanted to be something. Something I can look back ages from now and be proud of, something I knew would express me without words.

Today's outfit was inspired by the word Babe. It's the bio on my Instagram and it's the one word I can use to describe how I want to look in the morning oh and a cute guy or so. I ordered this shirt off of the Nylon Shop. It was about $32, breaking the bank in my opinion but I couldn't pass it up. So I ordered it in red and I counted down the days until it came! Another piece that I am super happy I ordered was this bandeau from American Apparel. If you look at my most recent What's Up in Fashionlanland post you will see I was ogling over the sunflower collection at American Apparel. When I saw this was only $16 I knew I had to have!

Later Babes!

Tribal Halter Top- Urban Outfitters

Corduroy Circle Skirt- American Apparel

Today my family and I found our way downtown to the Taste of Chicago.It was mighty packed and the air smelled of delightful goods. Yum! I actually didn't eat anything when I was doing there seeing as thought I ate before. Why? I'm not for sure.

To today's outfit. Alright this top, oh this top. When I first saw this top I was in love I can't express to you the last time I wore a halter top! My friend (doubtful as they are) believed that the top was going to be too small for me. After many try ons and even one from my smaller friend I proved to them that it obviously fit. I mean let's be serious I did try it on in the store. Also my handy dandy Corduroy Circle Skirt has gotten me in a many outfits and even works when I need to wear khakis. It's a little on the short side but it works well all in on. It also looks very good with over the knee socks. Hope everyone is having a good week!

Tips From This Post

-Tribal prints are great for summer! They are risque and the prints have great color and pattern.

-Halter tops are not just for the quaint young children. It can also be worn at a matured age. The right way of course. Nothing too tight and remember to wear the right bra!

-Circle Skirts are also a staple piece for summer and well any season at that. They are flirty, fun and make for a good addition to any outfit. I like them paired with brogues, or an over sized sweater with a button down underneath, or even tights and a pair of heels. The possibilities are endless. Here are a few of my favorites:

*Corduroy Circle Skirt-American Apparel

*Natural Denim Circle Skirt-American Apparel
