Back to school? No, thank you.


"Whether checkered, tartan, or houndstooth, we'll all be marching straight into Fall 2013 with a wardrobe of plaid jackets, dresses, trousers, and more." -ELLE Magazine

What I Wore: Motel Rocks Top | GOWIGASA Red Plaid Shorts and Square Backpack | Do-A-Fashion Navy Coat | Boots from Japan

It's that time of year again - Back to school! So why not make it the theme for today's outfit! :)

I chose these shorts because I think plaid always plays along with that school-girl look. And this navy coat is the ideal pick for this theme because not only does it cover me up, it also kind of looks like a school blazer, don't you think?

For the top instead of wearing a white button up shirt like a typical school uniform, I chose this mesh cropped top with cross beads to add a bit of goth element to the look. Wouldn't it be cool if my hair is black with straight bangs just like Gogo Yubari from Kill Bill? Ha!



Actually this is far from the school uniform I used to wear. Sooo far that the only things I would be allowed to wear from this outfit are my backpack and coat! Not even colored soft-lenses.

Writing this post just reminded me of how much relieved I am to have graduated from my school.

Sporty with a Twist

Topshop White Turtle Neck Top | Motel Rocks Mirror Print Skirt | Romwe Varsity Jacket | Shibuya 109 (Japan) Cross Necklace | GOWIGASA White Back Pack | Decimal Shoes Creepers | MAC Pink Nouveau Lipstick

This is just another way to rock a varsity jacket: mix it with a skirt!
I personally am crazy about the graphic and colors of the skirt, and how it pops out against the black&white, so thank you Motel Rocks! :D


In case you are wondering what lipstick I'm wearing in this post, it is Pink Nouveau by MAC <3
