Hello hello! This look is another product of a half-cold, half-warm day. I put on this Serengetee top because I love the floral pattern on the pocket. It reminds me of happy, tropical times in the sun instead of bundling up to take a walk to the supermarket. Its colors looked really great with my electric blue flannel! I also wore my high-waisted leggings, bralette, and lighter Timberlands.

I kept my makeup light and put my hair up in a braided ponytail because my hair was not cooperating. I have a bunch of hairstyles that I automatically flock to when my hair looks horrible, and this is one of my favorites. Most of them involve braids. I was thinking of making a how-to post about all of them, so if you’d be interesting in reading something like that, let me know!

I really love this look though, and it’s one I definitely wanna wear more. In general, if there’s something you guys want to see or read, feel free to let me know in the comments, or send me an email or DM! I’d love to hear from you!!!

Thankfully, it looks like the nicer weather is here to stay, at least for a little bit. Fingers crossed!

"vintage, super cute!"

It was warm last week! I wore a tank top! Well, it’s a huge tank top, but it doesn’t have sleeves! That’s a start! This is actually my uncle’s. He passed away this past summer, so I inherited a lot of his clothes. I wore my bralette underneath, which I especially needed because the sleeve openings are super low (which I love).

I wore my high-waisted leggings, and my lighter Timberlands. I basically looked like my uncle when he went to work, especially when he had long, brown hair like me. My makeup was super light, and I sea salt sprayed my hair! The combination of the tank top and natural hair and makeup keeps things casual and cute! I wore this to my friend’s dance show.

I feel like I say it every time, but I just can’t wait for more summer-y looks! It’s been cold for five months straight now and it’s getting annoying! Summer’s my favorite season. What’s yours? Comment below!

Hello my loves! Today’s look is super chill, and a little different from what I’ve been doing lately. For starters, my shirt isn’t black! Maroon and gray are gorgeous colors that I definitely don’t wear enough. This shirt is actually from the men’s department of Tilly’s, and it’s one of the softest, comfiest things I own. I also have it in navy! Of course, I stuck with my typical leggings, but instead of boots, I wore my white Converse. It was kinda weird being lower to the ground again! The sneakers really bring out the baseball-y vibes of the look. I’ve always loved how the maroon in these Converse match the maroon of the shirt.

In general, I was going for a laid-back, girl-next-door vibe. My makeup was really light (I actually more blush than usual and I really liked it!), and I left my hair in the messy pony I wear while I do my makeup. I haven’t worn my hair in a while, so this was a nice change.

I really do like switching things up and trying new things, but it’s always hard to break habits! I’m definitely happy I stepped out of my comfort zone even just a little.

In the spirit of mixing things up, I dare you to try something new today! Let me know how it goes in the comments!

Another day, another flannel! I actually don’t think I’ve shared this one before, but it’s a good one, one of the originals. I don’t know why I don’t wear it more! It goes back to my lack of desire in my outfits, exhibited by everything else I’m wearing!

This look began with this adorable bodysuit my friend needed me to wear for a film shoot later on in the day. To save some time, I wore it with my high-waisted leggings and black Converse to a meeting I had in the morning.

Back when I first started The Clunkster, I would tuck my shirts in all the time. I love bodysuits! My style has definitely changed since then, but I should 100% incorporate more bodysuits into my looks. They’re so comfy, and they make my body look and feel good!

I didn’t do anything with my hair, and I left my face bare. This look would be really cute with a full face of makeup, but I also really like going makeup-free every once in a while.
What’s something in your closet you should wear more? Let me know in the comments!

Happy Thursday! I’ve been waiting for the weekend for what seems like forever. It’s that wonderful time of year when all of my classes give me a ton of work at once. Thankfully, things will slow down a little after tomorrow.

I’m so excited to share this look with you guys! It’s one of my favorites. This Serengetee top is definitely one of my favorite things that I own, and I was so happy it was nice enough to wear it with my bralette on this particular day. I love the way their crop tops look with my high-waisted leggings!

To complete the look, I wore my darker Timbs, Kat Von D lipgloss, and Katy Perry Killer Queen perfume, because as I’ve mentioned in previous posts, I barely own any colors and I love to convey some darker vibes in my looks. I didn’t brush my hair, so it looked wavy and messy just how I like it.

I always talk about how your clothes should represent how you feel, and that you should always feel good in what you’re wearing. I feel so comfortable and myself in this look, and I ended up having an amazing day. When you feel good in what you’re wearing, you have a better outlook on the day, and you’re happier and more productive.

Kick some ass today, gorgeous!
