• i don't want to take these lace shorts off.
• thank you, all of you, for stopping by and leaving such sweet comments.
• i realize that my outfits photos (like these) are poor quality. i do not have a nice camera like other bloggers do, nor do i have the means right now to acquire one, so i'm just going to have to go at this with my crappy point-and-shoot digital. i'm sorry, and i really hope you guys don't mind.

THANK YOU CAT!!!

oh and the picture is one of my favorite fashion images EVER, via knightcat ;)

lace biker shorts.

forever 21 oversized sweater and tribal leaf necklace; vintage levis cutoff denim shorts; H&M lace biker shorts (made from lace leggings); kohls winged ring; target hammered silver ring; nine west leather wedges.


really wanted biker shorts. then i wanted lace biker shorts. what i didn’t want was to pay an arm and a leg for them. but, as fate would have it, i opened my sock/tights drawer and there sat my neglected lace leggings.
lace leggings + scissors = lace bike shorts!
i’ve never been happier to find something already in my closet.
these also make me feel much more comfortable wearing my super-short shorts out to places like school.

fashionista of the week.

i am featured on fashionista101.com as this weeks fashionista of the week!

this is super-exciting because it's my first feature.
thank you so much shanteé!

check out my feature here, and below.

Caylee’s:
*PERSONAL STYLE* “My style is very simple and chic; it revolves around casual basics, feminine, rocker/edgy pieces, or sometimes with some vintage inspiration thrown in. My outfits are not anything groundbreaking, but I certainly love fashion and everything it entails. I am very inspired by street style from Norway/Sweden, fashion blogs, and of course runway and fabulous editorials. I like to follow current trends that work for me, and right now I’m really loving 80’s glam rock and 90’s grunge.”

CELEB STYLE INSPIRATION* Model-off-duty street style is my absolute favorite. I also really love three Kate’s: Kate Lanphear, Kate Moss, and Kate Bosworth.

*FAVE DESIGNER* Alexander Wang. His designs are so effortless and just amazing. I will never tire of his perfect basics, his chic simplicity, his casual sexiness, and his rock-n-roll edge.

*FAVE BRAND* H&M. They bring affordable style to the masses. Some of my favorite pieces in my closet like my sequin jacket, black lace-up skinny jeans, and leather vest are from there, and with it being a swedish company, what more could I ask for? Though I may be a bit biased…I’m on their payroll! =)

*FAVE STORE* eBay. You can seriously find anything and everything there: perfect vintage items, things that have already sold out or are from a past season, and amazing pieces for bargain prices.

*MOST STYLISH SONG* I’m the wrong person to ask this question to, because all I really listen to is rock music. Is metallica stylish? Most people probably say no, but I certainly think it is. Rock music in general is very inspiring!

*MUST-HAVE BEAUTY ITEM* Mascara. I have been using Maybelline’s Full n Soft waterproof mascara in Very Black for 10 years! It has never failed me.

*MUST-HAVE FASHION ITEM* Skinny jeans, a perfect black blazer, oversized t-shirts, chunky heeled black lace-up ankle boots, and all types of silver jewelry.

*AMOUNT OF TIME IT TAKES TO GET READY* I shower and do my hair at night (so I wake up with not-so-perfect waves), so depending on whether I know what I want to wear – about 30-40 minutes.

look-alikes?
