Woot! Number 4!

This one will be difficult because I know the person in real life. Creating a new look is exponentially more difficult when the old look is ingrained in your brain. Keep that in mind, my apprentices. I'm listening to Britney Spears for inspiration because the look i'm trying to create is very pop and bright. I don't want to turn her into a Barbie, but a departure from the darkness will be a fresh splash of change. I'll be the first to admit: black is an easy color to wear and most of my wardrobe is dark. Experimenting with light colors is something best left to the experts unless you're one of those people who is attractive enough to look good in anything. Speaking of experts, let's see what I can put together, shall we?

I'll start with the top. I'm going to venture away from a plain t-shirt, even though i've found some really cool ones. They're all dark and the ones that are bright have too many colors. I was thinking some Avril apparel, but that's not going to work because Avril=pink and black, two colors we're trying to avoid. Evanescence perhaps? Nope. More black. Hm... aha! Green. But lime green. Not solid green, of course, because that's just gross. But something with lots of green on it. Xhilaration Ha! Okay, so this is totally solid lime. But it's a subdued green. And it's loose and flowing (YAY racerbacks).

On to bottoms. I'm relatively certain that i'm a genius, and this skirt proves that fact. It is black but ornate and colorful enough to attract attention. Tiered floral skirt Genius.

Shoes! I wasn't expecting to find a bottom to go with that top. These items are supposed to be independent of each other. In case you're wondering what to wear with the racerback and skirt, the answer is flats. It's a long skirt, which equals flats. especially for someone who is vertically challenged ( heart ). Heels would work with a shorter skirt, but they would look kinda silly with a long skirt that's going to go to the floor anyway. shoes that i pick, then, are designed for everyday, walking to class-type wear. Comfortable and simple but unique enough to warrant notice. s**t!! The Converse website is down. So much for personally-designed Converse. On to plan B. umm... AHA!Walking Cradle This shoe looks super comfortable, it's unique, and it's open-heel. That means no rubbing against the back of your ankle like when you wear socks that aren't high enough or something uncomfortable like that. Oh and the come in other colors.

*phew* I hope that helps! Please leave feedback either here or in a PM. Positive or negative, I love to hear from my customers!
