Flamingo Road

Alright, fashion crew! Tonight you are getting two looks because it has been too long since Dub Goth style. But you should be lucky I love you and am sharing a new theme with you: animals! I was inspired one day while taking a break from our project. We were sitting on the roof and listening to CJ and Susan play guitars and sing while Ryan made a flower tiara for everyone and I thought that nature and animals would be a great theme. You don't have to be scared though because this is easy to do!

Now everyone knows that I am a punkette who likes to be myself, and I have to have an animal that is the same. I am lucky though because the choice is my favorite already: flamingos! They are pink, have long legs, and are graceful, just like me! They are style in the savannas of boring fashion! And they are pink so you can't go wrong with that.

To do this look right, you have to ask what your animal would do. Flamingos would be punk, do their own thing, and look attractive on the street. Sometimes it's like diving for pearls and are afraid to get pinched by clams, but it's easy! Once you figure that out, you find clothes to match that style. To help you on your fashion way, here is my own look, Flamingo Road:

Notice there is a lot of pink and punk! Flamingos look hott while out shopping and bringing peace to the world and while lounging on the beach, their next favorite thing to do! But flamingos also look great and stylish when relaxing with stylish technology. Don't forget people might always see you. But if you remember that, then this will be easy.

So get out there and find your animal and make it happen!

Get That Look: Bohemian Goth

Hello followers of fashionable trends! This post is all about getting that look you've always wanted without too much work. Today we are continuing the goth theme started last time. This look is inspired by my best friend Mimi, who has great Bohemian style and taste, and is dedicated to her!

Mimi is a real Bohemian with her own style and she is inspired by the romansive movie Rent. Rent is all about being Bohemian and making music and doing your own thing, which is great when it comes to fashion. The Bohemian look is easy to get too and turn it into your own style, which is why it is so great! Bohemian goth is just a dark and mysterious version of it and easy make. Stick around to find out how to get it for yourself.

You can see from the picture that anything goes as long as it is dark and natural! Friends, it doesn't make sense when you are trying to be mysterious but wear bright clothes. You have to be like the jungle during the night and not the urban jungle. That is for another theme!

When you want to be a Bohemian Goth, keep these things in mind:
1. Animal prints are glamorous
2. Try natural fabrics when possible
3. Beads and more beads
4. Cultural-inspired pieces
5. Ethnic prints as long as they are dark
6. LAYERS

Just follow these rules and you will be a Bohemian Goth in no time. And don't forget to accessorize! Once you get this, you will feel like dancing all the way down Avenue B!

Out Tonight

RENT ~ Feline of Avenue B
RENT ~ Feline of Avenue B - by Musical Mimi on Polyvore.com

This is my first look on Polyvore and I am loving it! It is different from my usual styles. I consider this more of a going out look. It would be great for a date with my boyfriend Travis! ^_^ I took some inspiration from RENT with the leopard print (my favorite ^^) coat and layering which I am a fan of. A lot of jewelry is featured as accessorizing is always a must in my eyes. It pulls a look together to make it original! Natural makeup in brown and gold shades will complete this look.

I hope you enjoy it!

Bright Like a Star!

Hello again, my fashion friends!

Recently, a friend of mine said he wanted to be a shining star to others and be a guiding light to them in the city where we live (he does community service). Now, I don't know about you, but I think that is a great cause! Sometimes we get really busy though and find it hard to get involved. So for all you who want to shine bright like stars, I brought you the lastest creation: Neon Nites!

Friends, what better way is there to shine than in neon? Fashion is like a jungle. You have to rip through the leaves and plants of bad clothes until you find your coconut of great looks! Neon and the 80s help you tear through that fashion jungle and land in a cave of wonders! Walk down the street and be noticed! Be bold and be bright! You won't be afraid of anything when you step out in this!

Now get out there and do like the shirt says and have people follow your fashion. If it isn't you, then it isn't cool!

The Romance of Arthur

Hello again everyone! Marissa here with another look for you guys!

What is more romansive than King Arthur stories? Arthur, Lancelot, Galahad...the Knights of the Round Table make me swoon. *swoons*Nothing is more romansive than a fair maiden of the kingdom being rescued by a knight in shining armor, so for all you wishing to get that look, here is the latest set:


King Arthur by BeyondTheWallOfSleep

Every fair maiden knows she has to look great for her knight, so here is the place to start if you are lost. Make sure you remember all the embellishments! You have to knock him off his horse when he sees you waving your handkerchief at him. The skirt is perfect for those who don't like them too short, but short enough to show off your hott boots. A must for any pair of legs! A low-cut blouse reminds him that you are a real woman, and a coat always looks great, and this one really says King Arthur's castle on it!

So what are you waiting for? Go get this look and get yourself a knight!

Hello to all! I am Mimi and this is a look I would be rocking! Bohemian looks are my area of style. I am a shopper of thrift stores and wearing items that are not seen in every day fashion. It is about having your own styles and working it! This is a great look that includes my favorite things~ accessory and layered looks. You can wear this in a casual setting with friends or dress it up for a night out. Wonderful!
