Opposites Attract

For some reason when I wear a very feminine outfit, I feel the need to go in the opposite direction the next day. Example: these outfits. I love both, but if I had to choose to be more feminine or more masculine in how I dress, there's no doubt that I tend to gravitate towards my more masculine pieces. I just feel more myself in some kick-ass boots, black leather jacket, and jeans. What pieces do you feel most comfortable in?

PS - introducing my new hair color! The cooler seasons always make me want darker hair. :)

Grunge Inspired

This outfit is much more casual/disheveled that I normally post, but that's kind of why I wanted to post it. I don't know why, but I've always loved the whole grunge look. Maybe it's going to an art school of 95% hipsters or maybe it's my inner rocker wanting to come out, but every once I feel the need to let my style get a bit edgy. I kept it semi-feminine with the color and jewelry, but otherwise kept my ensemble all black in typical rocker fashion.

I also tend to stray away from posting outfits where my hair is up because I tend to look bald, but I did some profile shots to show you that I do indeed have hair back there, haha. And I'm wearing my glasses for once. Pretty rare because I hate not being able to wear sunglasses, but I do love my glasses.

Oh, and I took these photos in the little studio set up I have in my house for senior pictures I shoot and whatnot. I couldn't avoid getting the bottom of my fancy backdrop(aka sheet nailed to the wall..) in the full body shots but that's okay. :)
