Wants: Bib Necklace

Crescent Leaf Necklace, Forever 21, $6.80

I've never been a huge fan of statement necklaces. I think it's just because I've never had one that fit my body shape. I remember when the long multi-strand necklaces were in style. I even bought one. But the strands would cling onto my boobs for dear life unless I wore something that totally covered me up. Even then, they would travel along the sides and frame out my chest to everyone. As if they weren't obvious enough!

Lately, I've been thinking of getting a bib necklace, one of those that goes across your neck instead of down your chest. I shop quite a bit at Forever 21 (cause I'm poor) and I kind of like, love this necklace.

My boobs more or less make a shelf for necklaces and it always draws so much attention to the girls. I think having something across my décolleté will draw some attention from my fun bags. Hopefully. In any case, these won't get lost in my cleavage. I think it would also balance out the width of my chest as well.

What do you think?

Trends: Dotted Tights

Frenchi Dot Tights, $12

Frenchi Dot Tights, $12

I was browsing lookbook.nu today and it looks like dotted tights are appearing everywhere. I'm kind of excited for this because I've been rocking my old H&M pair for the last two years or so. I really love them to death. They're pretty sheer so I'm thinking about layering colored tights under it. I think it would have a nice effect. What do you think?

I'm actually kind of obsessed with tights. I really love fall because it means I can start wearing the thicker ones without worrying about getting all sweaty. I also wear these in the freezing (well, Davis isn't quite that cold) winters. I don't know, tights seem to feel warmer than pants. I also like wearing them in the rain because they seem to dry faster than anything else I wear.

Wants: A Mustard Scarf

Looks so cozy!

I've been hearing that mustard yellow is the it color for fall this year. I love love love this color, but I never manage to find something that looks right on me. When I saw this scarf, I fell in love. It's so bright and cozy looking! I think I would be able to brave any storm. I've been really liking oversized knits lately, but my curves wouldn't look good in slouchy knits. I think a chunky scarf is a great way to play with some bulk without adding weight. It just looks so comfortable. Alas, the $31 price tag is just out of reach for me. (Poor college student has to eat)

I'm hoping that the mustard trend doesn't go away because I really love the color and I think it complements a lot of skin tones. Plus, by next year, hopefully a job will come in and I can afford scarves like these. :)

LOVE: Aviators.

I wouldn't mind being pulled over by Donald and Zach.

When aviators first came into vogue, I didn't really like them. They reminded me of dirty 80s cops and perverts. The image of some mustached man asking for your information used to come instantly when I saw these shades. So for a long time, I kind of shied (OT, but this word looks strange) away from this trend in high school, which was when it started coming back.

But now that some time as passed, I've grown to love my aviators. In fact, they're basically my HG (holy grail) style of sunglasses. I think this is because they always seem to fit me. You see, I have an "Asian" nose, so the bridge of my nose is pretty flat. I love my nose, but I have a hard time finding shades that will fit comfortably on my face. Also, I have "Asian" eyes (whatever that means) and my eyes kind of protrude from the plane of my face. That is, if you look at my eyes from profile, you can see that my eyeballs jut out a little. (Maybe I'll show a pic later!) Therefore, sometimes when I try on sunglasses and they don't fit on the bridge of my nose, I try and force it back so they would rest there, but then it would hit my eyeballs. So yeah, pretty odd scenario.

But yes, I really love aviators now. That just goes to show that you can hate a trend, but end up loving it in the end. :)

Also, I fell in love with this pair of Carrera bubblegum pink pair of aviators when I went to the Gilroy outlets. I think they were also $120 at the Solstice and I really loved the way they looked on me, but I couldn't buy it because I was pretty certain that I only had $200 in my bank account. :( `Really really liked them though. Sigh, one day~!
