EAT IN STYLE: CASUAL DENIM + BOW-D TATTOO SKULLS

Hey everyone! How are you reaters? If you ever wondered how I dress in real life, then I hope these photos  here are enough to satisfy your curiosity. But if you never wondered and never even thought about it at all, this is just me trying to accomplish one of my blogger dreams of being a street fashionista! 

I've always loved dressing up! I love dressing up for a night out, a day out, to school, to a party, to someone's house, or just simply to eat out. I love making heads turn when I wear really bold and daring or colorful outfits. I guess you can say that I love the attention (in a good way) but a lot of times I am pretty shy about what I choose to wear. I feel like sometimes it may be too bold or too "strange" and "weird" but the fact that I can leave my house wearing something strange and daring gives me confidence. It's even better when strangers end up complimenting me! It just absolutely makes me happy and makes the day brighter for me somehow. 

I've been collecting clothes from Korea and Japan and of course my intense shopping habits have resulted in an overflowing closet. Some of my clothes end up being neglected. But, this is why I love wearing different outfits all the time! And now through this blog of mine, I would love to share it with all of you guys! ^__^

A few weeks ago my friend Cornelia and I decided to have a fun photo shoot in Down Town Santa Ana. I was the one that suggested this area because Down Town Santa Ana really reminds me of the Arts District in Los Angeles. The eclectic nature of DTSA is now a must go-to spot to see amazing murals and art work on the street as well as underground (literally!) music performers that might someday be world-famous because of the outrageous talents. The Arts Village in DTSA just gives me so much fascination because I love looking at beautiful and unique art. 

Cornelia decided to dress in a casual soft blue denim outfit with floral denim shorts. The studded collar really adds some edgy flare to her look but it's not too overbearing. You guys can check out her other fashion posts on her blog: Global Yuppie Style

I felt like the total opposite with my outfit! I chose a much more daring outfit that featured SSUR's popular "Comme Des Fuck Down" black beanie along with my own original Glow In The Dark Skull Thigh Choker / Head Band that I made. The Skeleton Tattoo Tights are by far my favorite tights on the universe! I bought them at a store in Japan and wish I bought more because they are ripping a bit already. While walking down DTSA I felt like I was gonna blush my cheeks out because random strangers started complimenting my Skeleton Tattoo Tights / Leggings! They thought it was "sickkkkkkkk!"
