How did you ruin your life today?

Hello, hello, welcome to my, ahem, "fashion" blog featuring my day-to-day clothing styles and the origins of items, good or bad. I'll also try to discuss fashion and possibly include things that I consider to be not-so-fashionable. The "fox pass" in my title comes from my best friend mispronouncing FAUX PAS, which is "foe pah," by the way. So, yeah. Try not to laugh too hard. I am not a fashion student, I just put together things that I like (which never seem to translate well into photos...). I'm actually just a hack art student, but who isn't these days? And this was not my idea, it was suggested to me by some friends as an art project of sorts, so I'm really not as vain as I may seem *cough*

Anyway, this is the outfit that I wore today (I was not this emo at the start of the day) as I came to find out I am made of MAJOR FAIL. Forever 21 top, H&M sweater, Wet Seal jeans, Shoe Carnival flats.

So, yeah, I essentially am fucked, as I did not make it into the art program that I wanted to at school. This means I must graduate this semester (and in no way am I ready) or re-apply next year. My SIXTH YEAR. Yes, I said sixth. And the program lasts a year, so I would graduate IN SEVEN FUCKING YEARS. Yeah. I have no idea what I am going to do.

Anyway, these are some pictures from the past week or so because I was too busy/lazy to start my blog after the first picture was taken. My lovely friend, Helen took some of these *coughthegoodonescough* and my mother took the rest, bless her technologically challenged soul.


Yeah, I have no idea what was going on here. Goodwill too-clean-to-be-grunge-sweater, woot! The tshirt is also a Goodwill find. No, I am not ashamed to say I go thrift store shopping, as all the cool kids do it, you know. Those are my favorite Wet Seal skinny jeans and retro running-shoes from, oh yes, THE Payless.

I enjoy mixing of the patterns. That camo jacket actually has some Japanese or Chinese writing on the shoulder that is covered by my majorly awesome Forever Love scarf.

It was hella cold, hence the kooky layers. Hand-me-down hoodie, Beatles tee, Forever Love scarf, Elder-Beerman tunic top, more skinny jeans, and awesome pirate boots for $7 from...Wal-Mart. I am so ashamed.

More retarded posing by me with ironic shirt slogans. Gold cardigan and tee from Kohls, red shades from Forever Love and the much favored skinny jeans and pirate boots.

My beloved Goodwill middle-aged-woman leopard print cardigan and a $3.99 shirt from Big Boy.

Wonder if I could sue the school for liability if I cut off my fingers in the metal cutter?

Oh-sew-emo detail for you's. I really enjoy wearing ridiculous sunglasses. Leopard-print shades from the much-dreaded punk-poser hang-out, Hot Topic. Oh yes, I said what everyone else was thinking. Hoodie from Debs (lol), favorite skinny jeans, my most complimented shoes EVER (and I have a lot of shoes) are Onitsuka Tiger Rainbow Asics from Shi, and last but not least, my rare concert tee from my first show for the Japanese punk band, GO!GO!7188. Fun times.

Yeah, I know, I don't photograph well. Well...you win some, you lose some, I suppose. I have no idea why I wrote so much. NO ONE IS GOING TO READ THIS. Except maybe Helen. Kthxbai.
