OUT OF THIS WORLD

I don't know what it is nowadays, but some out-of-the-ordinary pants have been somewhat destined to be in my closet.  I think it has to do with how the future is fast approaching and I can't really wear something like crazy pants in a workplace.  I feel like I just have a couple of months to explore some pretty sweet trends before I join the work force after I graduate.  I am also not one to stand out from a crowd due to my  affinity for neutral colors.  But I figured these pants would be a silly addition to my wardrobe, and boy do I enjoy them.  Since the pants are so bright (obnoxious even), I decided to pair them with a killer muscle tee covered in our celestial moon.


Keep in mind that these pants are actually meant to be cropped above the ankle.  I am only 5'2", making them the perfect height for my short self.  Although they aren't cropped on me, they hit right where I want my skinny jeans to fall.  I wonder what cropped pants would look like on me...


The thing I like about these bad boys is that it isn't one single color.  The pants are actually striped!  They are a nice yellow and green striped pair that give them that extra little something.  They remind of me of these shoes.


To balance out the loudness of the pants, I also decided to keep the makeup rather subtle.  Using the ever-so-coveted Naked 2 Palette by Urban Decay and MAC's lipstick in Kinda Sexy, I kept my face pretty natural.


Since this muscle tee has super wide arm holes, a sleek bandeau could cover up anything that are not meant to be shown.  In this instance, I actually wore a black Wildfox Couture bikini top.  I am not going to lie, I am pretty obsessed with that brand. 

Keeping my jewelry rather simplistic, I just wore some dainty initial bracelets and some freakin' awesome upper knuckle rings.


I finished the look with a silver collar choker and some beach waves.  I don't know what it is about beach waves that make any outfit look a million times cooler.  I think it has to do with how effortless it looks (but in all honesty, it takes about half an hour to do).  Tutorial anyone?

Today seems like an out-of-this-world kinda day.  Might as well add some pop of color to the incoming spring days!

Thanks for reading, and live life to the fullest!
