Typical...

DSC06213

Better late then never no? Happy New Year everyone! Took me awhile to post these pics as I've spent the weekend recovering plastered to the couch watching Netflix... Less on that, more on the outfit. I was invited to a few parties and ended up going to only two but had mucho fun none the less. The invite to my friends Justin, David and Fun Fun said something about think silver so this is sort of the look I ended up with. I really didn't want to wear a coat and it was pretty warm for NYE so I wore my Mexican poncho that My Mexican gave to me last Christmas. It's stupid to try and explain the thought process but I basically wanted to emulate the movement of fireworks through mixing prints (god that sounds ridiculous) and the hoodie just makes me seem like less of an asshole (what with 3 mashed up prints and a tailcoat oh AND metallic Docs...). Also please bear with me as I figure out how to take these damn self-timer shots on my fire escape (whilst freezing my fingers off) and yes I know I need to develop a less pissed off look when doing this too...

Now, this is a "riotous mix of prints". So glad I found your blog through Style Salvage.

Well done with keeping it coherent yet wild and FUN! Happy New Year!
