Color Me... Copper

Color Me... Copper


A lot of my Color Me... posts have been based off of Essie nail polish colors--this one being no different. I still have leftover Penny Talk on my nails from New York and I love how the metallic shade goes with just about everything. Mixing metals is one of my favorite things to do (explains why I love my Urban Outfitters cuff so much!) and the rose gold tint of copper offers a fresh take on the standard bronze, silver and gold metals.

IFBCON 2012: Day Two


Despite being a bit tired out from the first day and the fabulous after-party at 60 Thompson in Soho, the second day of IFBCON was another day filled with learning about the blogosphere and all of the business behind it.

I felt a bit more ME in high-waisted riding shorts and my signature Urban Outfitters cuff -- definitely more true to my day-to-day grungy style than my feminine, conference-y (yeah, I just made up a word) look from Day One! And how perfect is Kat Von D's Homegirl lipstick? I had to get my hands on it after featuring it in my "A Gloss of Goth" post. 


The highlight of the day was hearing our keynote speaker Iman (who knew she was married to David Bowie?!) tell all about her impressive career as a model, actress, savvy entrepreneur and now, blogger! Her blog Destination Iman recently launched and features everything from home decor to travel and gives an inside look to Iman Cosmetics.


Not only was she insanely stylish and put together, but she was also HILARIOUS, making jokes about how Twitter is too hard for an "old bitch" like her. Her presence was an inspiration and I'm ready to live by her words: "Make yourself irreplaceable and indispensable."

And of course, there was no shortage of  fabulous fashion on Day Two...

Spring Awakening Style


Lately my personal style has taken a turn towards punk. I love dressing down a girly skirt with combat boots or adding a metallic cuff to just about anything. When I saw these spiked shorts at Urban Outfitters a few weeks back, I knew they would have to become a part of my closet at some point and Spring Awakening seemed like the perfect time to make the addition. 

Just as I strived to do, there were quite a few people that rocked out a more hardcore, metal look in honor of Skrillex.

While some still went for the boho festival look that I'm sure will be all over Wavefront Music Festival next weekend.
  

But neon brights (especially yellow!) definitely dominated at Spring Awakening this year.

                                                 
       

  

And let's face it, it just wouldn't be an EDM festival without the typical half-naked ravers in furry boots & tutus.
