punk rock summer!

So, I've been super lazy bones about posting this week. Mostly due to nonstop work throughout the Memorial Day weekend. But this coming weekend I am completely free and hitting up the Philadelphia Comic Convention YAYYYY. But I'll talk more on that later because...

I dyed my hair red! Yikes!


Anyways, it is HOT in Philly. And when I say hot I mean more like sticking your face in an oven kind of hot. So really, what better way to fashionably celebrate such awful weather than by wearing the old standby of shorts and a tshirt!

I'll admit. I am guilty of being non fashionable this week and throwing on a pair of cutoffs and my favorite Phillies tshirt and rocking some sneakers. I'm lazy. But you probably already knew this. However I'm making up for it by actually jazzing up my outfit today.

Another thing about summer fashion is that I hate flip flops. Yeah, I said it. FLIP FLOPS ARE GROSS, DUDE! Number one, feet are weird looking. Two, when you spend a lot of time walking city streets and riding subways your feet are exposed to a number of things. Bar vomit, broken bottles, trash, grime...the very fact that homeless people are known to use sidewalks and subways areas as toilets keeps me up at night. Um, NO THANKS. Flip flops are for the beach. And showering at summer camp. Wear some real shoes, kids.

Anyways, I jazzed up the summer essential outfit with some boots, a funky necklace and my new Betsey Johnson bag. It's comfy but more put-together. And kick ass. Duh.





Shirt, Shorts & Necklace: Forever 21
Boots: Doc Martens
Bag: Betsey Johnson

Now all you need is some Reagan Youth and a Wawa hot dog. 



Also, make friends with people who have air conditioning. 


Enjoy.

  1. Excellent outfit. Envious of your docs. And yes, Philly needs to cool the eff down. It's only the beginning of June!

  2. Loving the hair and the outfit is awesome. I remember hating the summers in Philly and I actually still hate summer. Exposed toes and shorts/skirts are not my thing normally.
