A lot of times when I wear an outfit I like or find interesting, I'll take a picture of it in the mirror. These pictures are usually not the best quality but I think I will start posting more of them. The pictures in this post will center around the colorful cropped sweater I am wearing. I actually knit the sweater myself. I loved the bright vibrant shade of pink in the yarn so I was inspired to make a sweater with it. Th funny thing is that the reason that I made the sweater cropped is because I did want to spend more money on the yarn. In the end, I think that the sweater ended up costing 6-7 dollars. It's only the third sweater I've knit so it does have some minor problems but overall I think it turned out pretty well.

Shoes: Yestyle and white Doc Martens

I've actually worn both of these outfits out. But the second one I wore with some tights since the dress is very short. Basically, since the sweater is so short, I try to wear it with a dress. Both of the dresses I've chosen have ill fitting tops and the sweater helps cover them up. It also makes the dresses much more interesting. Maybe some day I'll get the courage to wear the sweater without a dress but for now I think the way I've been using it is useful and practical. I apologize for the bad picture quality especially for the ones taken by my phone =P.

It gets dark so early now adays and it's so hard to take photos in low light without flash. But I always found photos taken in low light to be mysteriously beautiful. Anyways, I'm finally making another fashion post!

I have been loving maxi skirts the past few months because I think they are so versatile and practical. They make an outfit look dressed up and sophisticated without much effort. And they're really easy to wear. I personally like them more than maxi dresses because I think they transition well into the winter since they are not considered solely a "summer trend" like maxi dresses usually are. Here are some outfits:

I think that this skirt is really elegant and simple but it's a little too formal looking. So I added a t-shirt to make it more casual. I'm wearing platform shoes underneath the skirt because it's a little too long to wear with flats but I still want comfort( Ad-Longs are super comfy).

 This red velvet maxi skirts is perfect for the fall and winter. It's warm enough to wear outside with a pair of tights.
