Let me state, for the record, that I loved tiger print way before I binge-watched Tiger King. I’ve got a tiger print outdoor rug on my balcony, tiger print pillows on my couch, and multiple pieces of tiger print clothing. Some people think tiger print is tacky, but it’s tacky in all of the right ways.

Since we’ve been in quarantine, I haven’t really worn much besides sweats and oversized tees. But taking a day to pick out a cute outfit and do my hair and makeup does help me feel human again. I’m now finding myself getting dressed up for my daily walk to my mailbox.

I thrifted this cool Harley Davidson top from Wang’s Vintage in downtown Phoenix. I did a little DIY and turned it into more of a muscle tee. I tucked my top into some cuffed skinny jeans from Frame with a super cute button fly. If you’re ever looking for skinny jeans that don’t feel as basic, look for ones with a button fly. Trust me on this one.

I finished the look off with some gold bangles and tiger print boots from Kenneth Cole. These boots have some more western styling with silver metal tips. I really love little details like that. They may seem small, but they really make the piece feel more well thought out and high end.

It’s already day 15 of quarantine for me, and I’m slowly starting to lose my mind. One thing that helps me stay sane is to dress up how I normally would. It helps to make things seem as normal as possible, even though things are definitely not normal right now.

This Fiddler Cap from Brixton has been with me on bad hair days at home, photoshoots, and pretty much every long distance motorcycle ride I’ve ever been on. Since I’ve just been hanging out at home, I’ve been skipping the contacts and just wearing these super cool aviator style glasses from Ray Ban. My leather choker is the Signature Choker from Zana Bayne (she also makes vegan options of tons of her designs. I absolutely adore these cropped snakeskin print pants from Reformation. I’ve finished off the look with the chunky rings and equally chunky Friday Night boot from Free People.

I’m kicking off March with some green. This is definitely the last week where I’ll be able to wear velvet without melting, so I wanted to break out this gorgeous emerald coat one more time.

My gorgeous nude hat is the Ivory Rancher Special from Lack Of Color. My even more gorgeous emerald coat is from The Kooples. In fact, my blouse and shorts are from The Kooples as well (keep on eye out for their killer sales). I’m really into wearing fishnets with shorts and skirts, especially at night. I’m a little self conscious about my shitty leg tattoos, so tights make me feel a little bit more covered. My boots are the Friday Night Platform Leather Boot from Free People. They’re perfect for pretty much all occasions, but I especially love wearing them at night.
