My typical schoolday outfit, but with a slight 'i-enjoy-trecking-through-the-Amazon-when-school-ends-at-3pm' twist. 
These from 'Insight Tribal Grunge Low Rider Print Shorts', courtesy of LuLu's, are perfect for the recent heat. Definitely looking forward to pairing these fun tribal print shorts with a little crop top or over swimsuit bottoms during the summer or at the beach. As another addition to the ethnic vibe, I have on a little necklace with teeth (dentures, of course) of some animal that likes carrots or oranges or something. My only other piece of jewelry was the snake ear cuff which I've shown before. I find that to wear things that I'm normally terrified of in real life. Good way to conquer your fears. 
For the rest of the outfit, I added some simple, modern pieces that kind of juxtaposed the loose and free-flowing feel of those pieces. For summer, that's the type of look that I tend to lean toward. But in a classroom setting, a complete boho look doesn't appeal to me. First off, I have on a very basic white tank. Over that, I have on an equally basic black blazer. Basic blazers really do the trick when polishing up any look. For accessories, I have on basic black patent pumps and the 'Tell Me About It, Stud Black Purse' from LuLu's which I like wearing either on the shoulder, crossbody, or I do away with the strap completely and just carry it under my arm.


Some rather old art related things;
