My Recommendation of The Day: PacSun Jeans


I have a tough time finding jeans. My hips are never big enough to fill out the jeans at most teenage stores,and I am short, so I had to resort to buying jeans at GAP and even Limited Too. But I soon found this gem of a store that has great jeans. I have been to PacSun before, but never to check out the jeans, but I gave it a try. I now love it there! There are so many sizes always in stock, and many different washes and cuts. I love the skinny jeans, they aren't too tight but they flatter the leg, and the laguna bootcut which flatters any "athletic" leg. If you already shop there and are trying a new style, don't buy the same size you are in the other jeans. Sometimes in certain cuts you'll need to go up or down a size or length.

Note: Never Wear Anything My Math Teacher Already Owns


On Zappos.com today I found these beauts. I swear, my math teacher has the EXACT PAIR. And by that I mean they are horrific. First of all, they have the strangest cris cross pattern on the vamp, which I find unnecessary and unattractive. Then there is the point of the toe that looks like it should belong on a man's shoe,and then the heel. I HATE HATE HATE short chunky heels. If you wear heels like this to be comfortable, either you should NOT wear heels because they are not meant for comfort purposes or you should wear a more flattering heel.

My Day Today

I'm back everyone! Today I wore a jean Citizen skirt I got on sale at eLuxury, a white tank with green mooses on it from Aber+Fitch, and a cardigan with flats. I wear this outfit alot, so sadly no comments :( But the usual "popular" girls had the regular "look" of "Aww, more fashionable then moi?" This is kind of what my outfit looked like if you haven't got a picture of it :

My Recommendation of The Day: A Cardigan


Well, I'm starting to have this new obsession with cardigans. I just adore them. So that's why I am recommending it to those who read by blog, because of how it is very stylish, cozy, and can be quite affordable. I recommend getting a nice fitted one in a plain color, particularly cream, to go over tanks and cute camis. Make sure you try it on with any tank and button it up, then walk around. If the first button unsnaps, get a bigger size or you'll face this problem. I also don't recommend very long ones, as they can be seen as dowdy(I know this because my math teacher showed how dowdy it can get).

The Most Unflattering Dress I've Seen Tn a LONG Time



Wow. I was on Brownsfashion.com and came across this mess. Lets see, it costs 274 dollars to look just like a haggard beggar. Fist of all, it has no tailoring. It just billows. And second of all, whats with the pocket? It's purely useless. If you put anything in there a.) you'll be weighed down b.)you'll look, um, "lopsided". Don't wear this or anything like this unless you want to look like your wearing a VERY fat man's discarded safari shirt. With a useles pocket.

American Eagle's New Way Of Wearing Flats


Dont get me wrong, I adore American Ealge. But something got me puzzled when I went on the website today. Here is this girl in AE attire, sitting in a car, and on her feet are beautiful ballet flats. And then it hits me. She is wearing SOCKS with flats. During the winter, I had sacrificed being cold for not wearing socks with flats, a fashion crime, and here is the spring AE collection complete with bright yellow socks and flats. Am I just out of the new teenage scene, or is this plain wrong? I need some answers, or an explanation. Oh, and I had also seen socks with ESPADRILLES last week on the website, but the advertisment was removed. Maybe because the staff found out how ridiculous this looked :)

My Day Of Fashion

I'm back to describe how today went!!

So, I woke up at 6 like usual for school and I wore a top with 3/4 length sleeves, a deep v neck (with a cami of course :-), and a thin blue stripe pattern, from Abercrombie+Fitch. I paired this with dark wash Cheap Monday jeans and what I call "shocking red" ballet flats from The Tannery in Boston (LOVE THIS PLACE!!)
I haven't mentioned this, but I'm considered kind of "too fashionable" (I know, right?)for my school. Hmm, lets see what every girl was basically wearing in class today:
-Beatup North Face fleece pullover
- Tight logo tops
-Ripped jeans (one of their jeans was ripped at the TOP of the thigh!! How trashy!!)
-Uggs(Not always bad, but mind you, these girls were wearing Uggs with FLARE jeans, see the crime of fashion that is in the article below)

And they all wore the same look that said "OMG look Zomi is fashion-consious..."

At least I know I don't look trashy. And I'll score a job that does not require standing in a overrated clothing store while folding clothes over and over again after people keep messing them up and being deaf because of loud msic (Ahemm Hollister anyone?)

The Fashion No-No's


I absolutely love posting what fashions are a faux pas. This is because I know that there may be less fashion crimes if I do so :) And the winter mammoth crocs are definitely a faux pas. What are they exactly? A hybrid of a croc and an ugg. It seems that your supposed to wear furry gardening shoes to be warm. What happened to nice, non-plastic boots??
I also hate it when people tuck sweatpants into Uggs. It is soooo sloppy, and it really annoys me :) I always recommend that if wearing Uggs, wear SKINNY pants with them. Some type of pant you can tuck into it with out the hem creating a muffin top over the edge of the Ugg.
