Not Quite a Teen Witch

by a stylized hysteria on February 1, 2012

in outfits

I got up early this morning. I heard my phone vibrate, assumed it was my alarm and jumped out of bed and turned on the lights. Then I realized it was 2:30 am. Whoops. I never fully got back to sleep, so I got out of bed a couple of hours later and washed my hair (yay!) and picked out a decent outfit to wear.

I wanted to be comfortable, but suspected my boss would give me the side eye if I came into work wearing jeans again. So I went for a long skirt. I threw on a black button-down and was going to leave it at that, then I realized it’s not 1995 and I’m not an extra in The Craft. I added some color and some horse hair tassles and took photos before the sun was even fully out.

Also, I owe you folks a picture of my ear. That’s not code for something weird- I got three studs in my cartilage in January and have been meaning to take photos of it since then! I went to Chameleon tattoo in Cambridge, where I got my second tattoo TEN YEARS AGO. Wow, does that make me feel old. I was lucky enough to go in when Owen was there. He did a great job with the piercing and I contemplated asking for his hand in marriage until I saw that someone had beat me to it. Seriously, so adorable.

    Holy Hell! That is terrifying. Everyone had one friend in HS who got something pierced and it didn’t go well, right? I remember a girlfriend piercing her belly button at a party while totally drunk. Wanna guess how that turned out? :D

    This is next level gorgeous. I love it and 90s Craft-era witch is a look I fully support. I just need my own black maxi skirt to implement something similar into my own life. Witchy is the best.

    OMG, cartilage piercing! I like the updated location closer to your head. When I was in 7th grade i was so jealous of my best friend because she went to claire’s in the mall and got her entire cartilage pierced (something like 11 all the way up her ear) in one sitting. I wasn’t so jealous of her once the infection set in and she had to have one of the pierces surgically removed though. I’ll stick to tattoos and hair dye.

    Cute! I love the look of a crop top/sweater paired with a maxi. Might have to steal this look!
