Yoneda Kasuko

As I am currently typing this, I am on the episode 10, season 1 of the X-Files. I've been binge watching this show non-stop for the past couple of days. Any of you guys a fan or seen all 10 seasons? Give me a couple of months, and I'll get back to you when I finish the series lol.

Anyway, I'm excited because I will be attending the Tropicalia Festival tomorrow in Long Beach! Bane's World, King Krule, Goldlink, Sango, and Kali Uchis are some of the few that I'm excited to see live. Any of you guys going?! ♡

Yoneda Kasuko top: vintage

Trousers: American Apparel

Boots: Zara ( similar )

Fanny Pack: The Squad

This outfit is obviously inspired by a modern day military look. The vintage top is by designer Yoneda Kasuko. I'm so obsessed with the crop style and extra long sleeves. I figured the best way to pair is with some classic American apparel high-waisted trousers and Zara booties. To accessorize, I have the classic chain going on and then The Squad leather fanny pack. Definitely one of my favorite outfit so far in the season. ♡

HEY, NOVEMBER

Well, hello there to who ever is reading this. It is I, Alexis and I am still alive. It's been some time and with time that means there was plenty of changes. I don't even know where to start honestly. I'm currently reside in Los Angeles (still) and doing pretty well. I'm in my first apartment, got a new job, and still trying to figure out my life, lol. That's just a mini re-cap of what's happening with me, but there will definitely be more posting on this platform and of course my Instagram. ♡

Mock neck: H&M

Levi's shirt: Vintage

Levi's jeans: Vintage

Brighton Belt: Vintage

Boots: Zara ( similar )

Believe it or not, this outfit was inspired by that good 'ol 90's photo of The Rock. Oh yeah, you know which one I'm talking about. Just in case you're not sure, take a look here, lol. Anywho, it's finally getting a little chilly here in LA which only means one thing, it's mock neck season - nothing pumpkin spice here on this blog. Anyway, you're going to be seeing a lot of Canadian tuxedo this season because, why not?

HIS INFERNAL MAJESTY

Happy summer everybody! I hope you enjoyed spring and ready for the heat. It was tough the first day of summer because my A/C broke and it was almost 100 degrees that day! But all is good now and I'm living life to the fullest hiding underneath my blanket because my A/C is blasting all day. How is everyone surviving summer so far?

Guys, guys. Guys. I freaking found a HIM shirt at my job a couple of weeks ago and I'm love! For those of you who are not familiar, HIM is a metal Finnish band that got super popular in the 2000's. I'm definitely am a huge fan of this band! When I bought this shirt it was already super distressed and faded, which I love! It's a size XL so I can wear it as a dress if I wanted to. Of course to make this look super edgy I added my staple pleather jacket and Zara jeans. I'm also breaking in these cutie Top Shop boots! What a great all-black summer outfit, huh? ♡

BAD TO THE BONE

Hi friends! Hope you guys aren't suffering heat strokes like I am today. I literally just want to go to the beach and attempt to go swimming (a.k.a just dip my feet in the water). Well I have good news and bad news. Good news, I'm leaving off to my new home in Santa Monica! Bad news, I won't have a camera for awhile so I don't know what my blogpost consistency will be like. I'm pretty bummed about that, but I promise I'll save up fast to get a camera soon. From now on, follow my Instagram and Snapchat, yeah? @AlexisSplash

I'm making this nice and short because I haven't packed anything and I'm leaving tomorrow morning.

Bad to the Bone Lattice Bodysuit: Nasty Gal *sold out*

High-Rise Ripped Skinny Jeans: Zara

Sandals: Nasty Gal (similar)

All eyes on the Nasty Gal bodysuit, please. Yes, let it sink into your eyes and soul because this is the best thing I have in my wardrobe right now! I first saw the bodysuit on Erica Lavelanet of The Fashion Philosophy and instantly fell in love! When I went to go buy it, it was already sold out! So I waited, and waited, and waited. Until it finally came back in-stock! I purchased it in a size small, which ended up being a little bit big around the arms. It does fit true to size, I just bought mine in the wrong size. I made a giant sacrifice and sold my favorite UNIF jacket on my Depop just so I can buy this bodysuit. Am I a little salty about it? yes. Do I regret it? never. Unfortunately, the bodysuit is already sold out and I haven't found anything similar. You can always request to get an email to notify you when it restocks.

Of course, I'm in this "All Black" phase right now and I'm really trying to get out of it. I promise next blogpost will consist of color. Pinky promise. By the way, I apologize that I always leave my stupid scrunchie on during my shoots. It's just a horrible habit of always having it on incase of a hair-emergency.

BLONDE AND INKED

Hi friends! Long time, no read. Spring semester is finally over (well technically next week) and I have WAY more time and motivation on my hands now. As you can see I kinda went through an identity crisis and went blonde and got tatted up ( I'll get to that in second.) I'll be moving in 2 weeks to Santa Monica to attend SMC so I'm super excited. It's a change of scenery, people, and more importantly food. My cousin cooks amazingly so I'll be stuffing my face non-stop. How is everyone else doing? Aren't you glad this semester is finally over?

Arm Tattoo c/o Inkbox

Ever since I dyed my hair, I've been wearing nothing but black. I'm not quite sure how to wear my hair now where it doesn't clash with what I want to wear. If you have any tips, let me know because this has become a real challenge for me. I wanted to show off my tattoos so I put on this crop tank I bought from eBay and layered underneath is my all time favorite Unif Salem Bra to add that harness feel to it. Then I of course put on my Zara jeans because they make my butt look nice lol. And finally I finish the outfit with the Nasty Gal Shoe Cult Alkali Flatforms. I felt like the flatforms adds a pop to the look where it just isn't a bland all black outfit.

Now I'm going to talk about the totally cool Ink Box tattoos I have. Ink Box is a fruit-based tattoo kit that dyes your skin to look like a real tattoo for two weeks. Every tattoo is is hand-cut and their ink is certified organic. It's a no-pain no-gain type of deal, which I love! I've been dying to get a tattoo but too terrified of the pain. These are my first tattoos from them and it came out pretty good, even the fact I did everything with one hand lol. I HIGHLY recommend them if you're not ready to make a commitment with a tattoo or like me, afraid of the pain. Make sure to check them out and let me know if you bought any! They has tons of stencils to choose from! Also, a percentage of every sale goes towards supporting local indigenous communities in Panama, where their ink is from. That's real important to me because that's where my family is from so please help out! ♡

PALE PINK

Hi everyone! Hope all is well and that you're just excited for Spring just as much as I am. It's just around that time for midterms and I should be studying but ya know, procrastination lol. Or if you're lucky, you're already on Spring Break lol. I still have a whole month until I go on Spring Break but I definitely have plans. I want to go to San Diego for the first time and go sight seeing. If you've been there before, let me know what you're favorite to do out there was! ♡

Brixton Mayfield Hat: Pacsun

Popcorn Knit Cardigan: Forever 21 (similar )

Bustier: H&M ( similar )

Boots: West Covina Mall

White Howlite Crystal Point c/o Crystal & Casings

In hope of Spring, I did not realize it was still going to be cold and gloomy -- my least favorite type of weather. Not to mention it was super windy too. I decided to do somewhat of a layering to keep myself warm by pairing my H&M bustier and Forever 21 cardigan. I also wore my all time favorite pair of jeans from Zara. They're so comfortable and fit my skinny legs so well, definitely the best purchase of 2015 so far. And finally I wore these strappy pale pink boots that I got for only $15! Unfortunately I forgot the name of the shoe store, sorry!
