I Cut Up My T-Shirt Like Kendall Jenner

October 3, 2016 by loxandleather 5 Comments

Alright, I by no means consider the Kardashians or the Jenners to be style icons. But shit, sometimes members of that clan wear some shit that I can really get behind. Like Kim’s recent free the nipple world tour or Kylie’s crazy hair colors.

When I saw Kendall Jenner cut up her vintage tee in a super simple (but sexy) way, I really liked it. Also, I knew that I could do it myself (even if Kendall didn’t do hers herself, which I doubt she did).

kendall-jenner-showed-off-sexy-t-shirt-diy-while-out-about_1_2Because I didn’t have any tees that I was willing to cut up, I paid a visit to the Buffalo Exchange by my office and browsed the boys’ section. There weren’t many shirts I liked in the men’s section, but I did come across this FUCT t-shirt that I thought was hilarious. After all, you know how much I love shirts with semi (or very) inappropriate sayings.

I also ended up buying a cute Thrasher t-shirt with a flame pocket, and a black mesh button up tee. I love boys clothes, and since I no longer date skater boys, I have to purchase them myself these days.

The tee I got was not exactly like Kendall’s. The fabric and fit was boxier and the shirt was a size small, so it wouldn’t be as baggy as Kendall’s look was. Either way, I decided to go for it because the front of the shirt didn’t have much on it anyways.

I basically just cut a slit in the middle of the chest part of the shirt, then cut up both sides as evenly as possible. It literally took me under a minute, which was great.

Because my tee was boxier, I tucked the whole thing in rather than just a front portion like Kendall. I also chose to wear a more fun bra because a black lacy bra-let is a bit more scandalous on me, and I’ll use any excuse to incorporate cheetah print into an outfit.

Fishnets Have Quickly Become Pretty Mainstream

September 13, 2016 by loxandleather 2 Comments

Just like Metallica and heavy metal T-shirts, fishnets have suddenly become trendy.

I’m all for it, because I’ll take any excuse to dress like the emo chick that I truly am. But it’s can still be a challenge to incorporate the fishnets into a daily look without looking like a dominatrix or an extra from a punk-rock music video.

I attempted to wear an old pair of fishnets with a casual outfit, but I’m not sure it really worked for me. Since taking these pics, I’ve figured out how to wear fishnets a little more successfully (or so I think).

Regardless, here’s this look anyways. Let me know what you think of it in the comments section!

Jelly Sandals and Easy Summer Outfits

August 3, 2016 by loxandleather 6 Comments

So I really love summer looks, but I kind of have trouble putting together daytime “appropriate” outfits that I won’t die of sweat in (I sweat a lot, okay?). Also, jean shorts are not really comfortable to sit around in all day. At least mine aren’t.

I really like flowy A-line skirts like this one from H&M because they’re easy to move in, keep you cool, and still make a statement, even paired with a basic top like the one I chose to wear. The only downside to wearing (short) A-line skirts if you live in a windy city like I do is you may accidentally flash your ass to strangers on the subway (as if you didn’t get cat-called enough, right?).

I used to wear some spandex running shorts underneath skirts like this (when I remembered, anyways), but ever since I got my hands on some THINX panties I’ve actually been wearing the boyshort-style ones underneath which is way comfier and less bulky.

The American Apparel top is another fave of mine that I wear all the time, although since I tend to wear it with no bra it results in some sweat stains in the summer…(part of the reason I couldn’t use some of the pics from this look TBH).

The part of my look that isn’t so comfortable are the shoes. I got these from New Look for about ten pounds, but they’re essentially a knock-off of this pair from UNIF. Sorry UNIF, I love you, but was way too broke to be spending $80 bucks on jelly sandals at the time (JK, I’m still too broke). I got the bag from Top Shop, and the necklace is vintage, given to me by my cool-ass great aunt.

Shirts With Sayings That Make People Uncomfortable

July 16, 2016 by loxandleather 9 Comments

In the fourth grade I bought a t-shirt from Wet Seal that had silhouettes of gingerbread men on the front and the words “Bite Me” on the back. This shirt was essentially my calling.

First off, I fucking love gingerbread men. Second off, I love shirts that make people feel uncomfortable/confused/shocked. Tbh, in the fourth grade I probably thought this shirt was badass as fuck and I probably casually walked backwards away from my mom so that she couldn’t see what the back of my shirt said.

I still like the type of shirts with sayings that are only appropriate for certain occasions (or anytime anyplace if you DGAF).

If you’re looking for a shirt that’ll piss your mom, your professor, or your boss off, I recommend O-Mighty.

Well, actually, IDK if I recommend them because their shirts are overpriced, shipping takes forever, and the quality is shit. But I didn’t figure that out until after I had already purchased this shirt. It says “Thank you for eating me out for 45 minutes.” But it’s actually so small and casual that people can’t even tell unless they want to subtly stare at your tits for a full minute.

If you’re not trying to wait a full month to receive your shirt and/or you don’t want to spend $60 on a top that you can only wear on the weekends, I’ve picked some of my faves from Alien Outfitters and Dolls Kill. If you’re interested in anything from Alien Outfitters, use my code ASHLEYU15 for 15% off your order!

Pervert Ringer Tee $50. Masturbate Tank $18. Wasn’t Me Middie Tee $62.

As for the rest of the outfit, the shorts are from Garage (similar style here) and the sneakers are UNIF (Similar style by Vans here). The studded cuff is also from Dolls Kill and the choker is something I’ve had since 2002 and waited until now to bring out of my closet again. Isn’t it awesome when that happens?

Do any of you guys have shirts with funny shit on them? Share in the comments 🙂
