Do you notice anything different?
Well.. a friend thought that I am not a jeans-and-tshirt kind of girl (pffft.. how silly, right?).. so, I browse this blog and only find two posts of me wearing jeans out of two hundred posts I published ..and thus, I realize.. even in my daily life; that ratio is also note how often I actually wear this most basic fashion item = 2:200.
Since I am still in my new year's mood with all these resolutions to surprise myself, do things off my limits, try those thing I normally wouldn't, and all those positive vibes.. I accept my friend's challenge to wear only jeans and t-shirt just the way it is (meaning: I shouldn't wear the t-shirt as headband or scarf or anything possible but plain as its nature). Guess what, I actually enjoy the challenge!
After some failed attempt and deleted pictures, here are the results that I actually like:
*****
1st
"Little Boy Just Wants to Play"
The idea:
Since I have a pixie cut, I've always wanted to disguise as a boy. This is my chance, right?! :))) Do I look boyish enough? (please say I do..pretty please with a cherry on top..)
What I wear:
Cemprut raccoon sleeping mask as a headband, brown wool shawl, my sister's stripe t-shirt, Fly Shoes sneakers, and a boyfriend jeans.

2nd
The Idea:
one of my muse, Jane Birkin, is actually a t-shirt and jeans kind of girl who managed to look stylish and sultry in every way. Her rules are simple.. a comfortable jeans that she wears everyday, simple or plain t-shirt, espadrille or ballet flat, and a picnic basket. This look is inspired by this picture.
What I wear:
My favorite straw hat, basic white t-shirt, boyfriend jeans, Amante red-sole high heels, and straw bag.

3rd
"All Stolen from My Boyfriend's Closet (except the shoes)"
The idea:
Boyfriend everything was once very hot in fashion (yet, I never really follow fashion..you see..). Still, I agree that there is a certain sexiness of this boyfriend's outfit concept.
What I wear:
Man's bow tie worn as a headband, sunglass from Go-Girl!, my bf's t-shirt, my bf's leather belt, a boyfriend jeans, and Absolutee ankle boots.

4th
"Off-Stage Rocker"
The idea:
I can't believe I still keep this biker jacket after all these times. I am glad I didn't throw it away after my high-school style fades away. It's a classic I start to think of pairing it with fancy dress. Another fun fact, this is actually how I used to dress up in high-school when I was still listening to No Use for a Name, Box Car Racer, The Strokes, Foo Fighters, and all that. Yes, laugh on!
What I wear:
Rockman biker jacket I own since 2002, skinny jeans from my college year, tight white t-shirt, salem boots from Garage Shop, and Folk Afternoon's guitar.

The Provocative Couture
Actually, you really look great wearing a T-shirt. The stripe one looks fantastic while the white one is best when you have it printed with different gorgeous designs.
