ONE HUNDRED & TWELVE/ back to black

We only said goodbye with words, I died a hundred times.
You go back to her and I go back to black.

This is a look that I wear to work more often than not. Although I enjoy working mornings, I'm not a ~morning person~ by any stretch of the imagination so I love clothes that I don't have to think about while getting dressed. Dresses are often my go-to because they take the least amount of effort but still look great. I paired this basic black dress with a lot of flashy silver jewelry and a bright pink lip to make it look like I was ready to take the day by storm. If we were to run into each other on a weekday, I bet you dollars to donuts that I'll be wearing some variation of this outfit.

On my last outfit post I showed you a look that was completely outside of my comfort zone but in this look, I return back to black.

TWENTY-FIVE/ birthday suit

Today is the day that I turned twenty-one. Being in Canada, and seeing as the drinking age in my province is nineteen, it wasn't that big of a deal. But with me being the queen of birthdays I had to at least do something with my friends. We all got together and went out to my favourite bar and danced the night away. All in all it was an amazing night and I owe a lot of thanks to my best friends. They are such fantastic people and if I've said it once, I've said it a million times: I absolutely adore them and I truly don't know what I would do without them. It's one of those things that is said often, but can never really be said enough. I mean this from the bottom of my heart; these people have become (closer than) family to me.

I'm pretty lame and I ordered this shirt awhile ago but refused to show any of my friends before my actual birthday party. I'm absolutely, 110%, in love with it. I love the spiked shoulders and I'm dying over the dramatic high-low cut. Also it's black, so in other words it's perfection. I felt like a witchy punk rock queen the entire night and I did not mind one bit. I obviously had to pair it with black on black on black and my classic Dr. Martens boots. I finished off the look with minimal silver accessories and my favourite pink cross-body bag from H&M.
