Sick :[ (a scarf post)

Ah, I'm sick. I've been sick. In fact, I've been sick for about a week now.

The things I do for fashion's sake: wearing sandals and shorts on a day when it's raining and about 50 degrees. I'm not sure if that counts as crazy, but I was pretty cold... it doesn't help that I sit right next to the air conditioner in a freezing room in one of my classes...

Alright, enough of my complaining. So I haven't been wearing anything nice lately, mostly some variation of a t-shirt, jeans, and a hoodie or cardigan.

So, the last post, I talked about a girl in my art class who always wore a scarf. In fact, the technical term for what she wears is a "keffiyeh." I didn't know that until a few days ago. I always knew that many in the middle-east wore those scarves, but I just didn't know what they were called. But, I don't wear keffiyehs... I don't really have a reason, I just don't. I don't really know the reason behind why people wear it so I don't want to wear it wrong.

But, there are always different scarves to wear to stay warm and to look very adorable. For example:



I absolutely love the color of the scarf and the contrast it creates compared to the rest of the outfit. Ah...

This video matches her voice so perfectly, it really is amazing. Oh how I wish real life could be as interesting and haunting. I'm not even sure how this video is creepy, but it definitely is. Maybe it's the jerky movements or the mysterious moving objects but either way, the song and video are "contagious."

Oh, and I want that suit she's wearing. The detailing on it is so fascinating.

Enjoy watching it.

Update:
Lately I've really been looking into Willa Holland's style (April) in Garden Party and I'm definitely falling in love with it. It's so simple with nothing over the top and everything is so easy to mix and match with. There are some bold statement pieces that make everything fall into place and seem so quirky and magnificent. Take a look:
