Sophistocat


I have gone overboard with leopard shoes, I just can't get enough. How else am I supposed to be a sophisto-cat? 


Vans Lo Pro Leopard Slip ons.
 I really dig their loafer-ish vibe. I saw a girl in one of my classes wearing them.. that night instead of studying I searched the interweb for my size and finally after finding some ended up paying a KILLING in shipping fees.

Mara Leopard shoes from Aldo.. 
spent 2 hours tracking down my size in Canada to order them. I really like their sleek pony hair style.. enough to spend hours finding some

Vans Leopard shoes 
(bought these babies in Switzerland) 
They are flashy enough to spunk up any outfit, I even pair mine with animal print dresses for a funky mix.




I leave you with a song that randomly came on my ipod today that I've been digging.
 Have been a long time fan of Robyn since 1996.
 We go wayyyyyyy back

Better late than never

If you've ever spent hours searching through thrift stores only to find rad tees that are WAY too big.. fret no more! Splurge (sarcasm) $4.99 or less, get creative, and cut those bad boys without hurting your wallet! Here's a quick tutorial of how to turn big baggy tees into thrifted DIY cut up tees:

I started by cutting off the sleeves, then drew lines with a white pencil crayon the same width apart all the way around the shirt, then individually cut down each line. If you're feeling really fancy and satisfied.. you can put beads over two fringe strings and double knot :) and voila!! vintage DIY cut up tees without breaking the bank:



post your own creations on the comments below, I'd love to see!

Tough Love Evolution

My life has consisted of stuDYING and hiking. I'm digging the song link below, and am excited for my trip to Switzerland in August! I will be posting some summer must haves: long cut up dresses, big brimmed hats, overalls, print, & jellies! In the mean time:

 I've been living this daily
 With no peace 
No daydreams to save me 
Get high 'cause I want to survive 
Wish I could turn back the hands of time 

 ...whilst I'm solving this lack of daydreaming you can find my inspiration on my Tumblr  XO

Bitch don't kill my vibe

Just finished last round of midterms, now on to the last stretch before finals!! My international orders arrived from Choies. When I saw this Givenchy shark sweater look alike, I instantly purchased. I am a huge shark-saving advocate, so this was just perfect. When I also saw these Chloe look-alike boots, I died a little inside. The perfect student budget! Check them out!!

You don't know me like you used to know me, baby

I just want to stand alone

I like drinking coffee alone and reading alone. I like riding the bus alone and walking home alone. It gives me time to think and set my mind free. I like eating alone and listening to music alone. But when I see a mother with her child, a girl with her lover, or a friend laughing with their best friend, I realize that even though I like being alone, I don’t fancy being lonely. The sky is beautiful, but the people are sad. I just need someone who won’t run away.

DIY vintage tees

I'm all about the DIYs. I'm always looking through sections in thrift stores for tees that I can cut up. Backless, fringe - it's all good! And if you mess up, $3.99 shouldn't hurt the wallet too much.. right? I leave you with a good jam that I've been dancing to non-stop.
