What (not?) to wear

I almost never wear just black.
I like colors and whenever i try to tone my look down a bit and blend in, my husband encourages me to wear something crazier.
So in a city were black and grays are always in fashion, and nude is considered a color, i often stand out like a christmas tree in a pine forest.
But i try to get more black in there.
Sometimes i succeed and sometimes i don't.

This day i wore a black h&m dress, which i love but often forget i own, because it's, well, black!
These weren't part of the outfit until late at night when it got colder... they're biking socks!
Another day, another temperature and another outfit
This pretty ring was a gift from my friend Hunter (i tried to get a picture from the side, because i actually made a sloppy braid, but it obviously didn't work)
I bought this silly, faux fur vest in Japan, but this is actually the first time i've ever worn it (it went well with the 70's jeans i was wearing)
Here's the white trash ensemble i tweeted about the other day; the top is actually a vest, so to wear it on its own, i had to temporarily close the front by hand sewing it (exposing my back is one thing, but you'll NEVER see my belly in public unless i'm going for a swim!)
It just wouldn't have worked with ass antlers...
My mom made this ring for me ages ago, and it was supposed to have some gem stones on it, but right now i'm loving it as it is

Todays outfit consisted of what has become my go-to summer basic; the denim shorts i found in the basement, and Allan's new Cancer Bats t-shirt that was a little too snug on him, but fits me pretty well, especially since i cut off the sleeves.

I feel so comfortable in this, i feel like i could wear variations of this outfit every day, for as long as the weather allows it

It's funny, all winter i've been dreaming about the freedom of summer and not wearing layers, but now that the summer is here, i can't remember what it was i wanted to wear?
I'm afraid my wardrobe just isn't very summer appropriate, but i'm too busy/lazy (yes, those two can easily be combined) to go shopping.
Maybe i'll do that thing where i click the "wardrobe" label and just find something that worked for me last summer!
