UNIFORM

I don’t know about you, but I am one of those people that has a daily uniform. Boring and not very creative, I know. But I am not one of those courageous people that can throw on a daring/different look everyday and feel halfway normal. Even when I think my outfit looks different, its just another version of the same uniform. (I really need to break outta this routine!) Usually my “uniform” consists of a zip-up hoodie, chanel sunglasses, some kind of skinned animal, hooker heels, skinnies, and a good t shirt. I rotate between my faves- crass tees, cramps tees, and now, thanks to Obesity&Speed , there is a new tee in the closet that has been monopolizing my daily rotation. When I said I wore this v neck pentagram tee everywhere but the shower, I meant it. The visual lingo includes my favorite graphics- including the upside down crosses, the skeleton, and the star. The fit is perfect. Its baggy enough so I don’t feel like a sausage, but its also small enough so that it doesn’t gobble up my whole outfit.

Latex zip up hoodie from AA, tshirt from Obesity&Speed, Monkey fur from Ebay, Sunglasses by Chanel.

Photography gimmick 101- used by trendy photogs Ryan Mcginley, and Dash Snow. It’s called “dragging the shutter”. It creates a double-exposure movement feeling which I like although I realize how “gimmicky” it is.

So I literally live in this, I’ll switch out of my latex hoodie into my other AA hoodie in charcoal.

YSL platforms, and skinny jeans. Pretty much my second skin. I really, really need to use clean seamless paper. Look at how dirty it’s getting! Goodnight.

  1. Oh hell! So jealous. :P

  2. I Love the layering of the textures and how your necklace design compliments the graphics on the tee. Of course those YSL’s are fuckin insane….

  3. I love this post (obvs!) it’s amazing to see you wearing non-diva treats shoes! We should hang out soon. I was also thinking that it might be fun to do some weird post together and then cross-post it on our blogs. I don’t know what that would be but it would probably be hella fun. HELLA.

  4. You are so fabulous!! judy

  5. That jacket is AMAZING! Is it monkey fur? I’ve been totally obsessed by a similar vest I saw on DropSnap.

  6. there are no words for that epic “uniform”.
    i kind of wear that latex AA hoodie on a daily basis as well.

    monkey fur with a zip up hoodie never woulda thought it but you look insane! sweet pumps

  10. Those shoes are amazing and you rock those CHANEL SUnglasses.

  11. Now I have to say, this is the kind of blog I have been searching for all my life.

    Pentagram + Monkey fur + Those Chanel sunglasses = P E R F E C T I O N !

  12. Those heels, everyday? REALLY?!?

  13. oh yes
    love this outfit!

  14. the search for chic–
    These are like sneakers to me. i’ve been sporting the hooker heel style since freshman year of highschool

  15. That shirt encompasses everything. Its really really perfect! I guess when it comes to a daily uniform, I am completely the other way. I try to dress as differently as possible from day to day and feel really uncomfortable wearing t-shirts. Part of me would like to have a cartoon-character’s wardrobe of the same ensemble day-to-day, but that just ain’t my fate!

  16. Heyy Jen Brill…hahha, I luv her her, too. U look so adorable in the pics!!! Where is your red lippies from?

  17. Cute!

  18. You are making everyone jealous of your round framed Chanel sunnies.

  31. Your daily uniform is far from boring!It’s quite amazing.
    I didn’t realize that AA made a latex hoodie. I’m still holding out for the Lip Serive 4Way Gang Bang PVC hoodie to surface on Ebay.

  32. I love your photos! And I love that fur coat and you pull of the Chanel half-tint glasses so well. I remember I tried a pair on in Korea during the summer but they didn’t look too good on me unfortunately. I was so close to getting them too. Oh well.

    And the latex hoodies’ been on my wishlist for a while :P

  33. monkey fur… i’m speechless

  34. Your hair is fabulous your uniform is fabulous & your cooking is beyond amazing!
