Remember When Black Was Gothic?

Fashion

Here is another outfit that I’ve worn on here before, but styled differently this time. It’s so funny to me to think how when I was little I always associated the color black with gothic people, and every time I would wear the color, I felt weird, and so un-girly. And now it’s like everyone’s favorite color to wear and is more so considered chic rather than goth. Same thing with skinny jeans. They came into style when I was about 13, and I swore I would never wear them because I yet again thought it was “gothic.” haha. Fast forward 10 years and all I wear are black skinny jeans. (Oh, and leggings. Like everyday.)
Also, WHY do I always leave my blog posts for my very last thing to do for the day?! I’m always falling asleep at my computer when I’m editing and posting, and after over a year of doing this, you think I would have learned my lesson. Yesterday I was still up at 3:30 in the morning finishing up my blog post, and that has sadly becoming almost a daily occurrence. Luckily right now though, it’s 1:45, so I’ll actually be going to bed early today! (That’s early for a nigh owl.)

    You look like a ballerina doll and the trained dancer’s grace is always showing thru.Just the right mix of different patterns and white with the black. Is that a belt you added to the skirt? It pulls it all together beautifully. I love your blog, sweetie!

    I know how you feel! Growing up my older sister would always wear black and I remember hating anything that wasn’t pink basically hahaha. Now I love everything black, especially in the colder months! You look beautiful by the way:)
