Ripped jeans have been my jam for the past few months. My new craze has resulted in my acquisition of two Topshop pairs and also an old pair of jeans being at the mercy of my fabric scissors. They give any outfit a "I don't care", "homeless chic" kinda vibe which is evidently what I look for in outfits. Another blogger cliché this summer is the Birkenstock/slider trend. I had been eyeing the Zara version for the longest time but couldn't justify spending $90 on them so when I saw them on sale I knew they had to be mine. Not sure if you can tell from the pictures, but my pair doesn't fully match the original Zara ones. That's because I actually purchased the light pink pair and dyed them black because 1. they were cheaper than the black ones and 2. the Zara I went to didn't have the black ones in stock. All the effort to dye them was totally worth it because they still look really good and I saved myself like $30 (HELL YEAH)

Top- Zara, Shorts- Levi (Salvation Army), Shoes- Birkenstock Rio 2
This is my take on the normcore trend although it cuts a fine line between being intentionally boring and actually really dull. I've been wearing variations of this outfit for the past few months now. Maybe it's because I'm trying to take advantage of the fact that "anti-style" style is in and am using it as an excuse to put as little thought into what I wear as possible.

No, your eyes have not deceived you. I am indeed wearing a bright orange crop top. I've been a staunch advocate of monochromatism (in the clothing department) for the better part of the this year as you may have noticed. However, not even after my dad offhandedly remarked that this top looks like something a monk would wear was I deterred from trying it on (and eventually buying it). This sudden lapse of behaviour could be attested to my latest TV programme obsession, Orange is the New Black. Although they only wore orange for at most 3 episodes, it seemed to have left me subconsciously trying to emulate a prison inmate.
