Schools out forever

Summer in California is nothing new, this weather is all year round for us. But I am appreciating the sun more than I used to. It's been making me a lazy ass and I'm ok with that. I have been sitting at home watching Purple Rain, House Party and Poison Ivy all back to back while wearing this cali lazy kid get up. Dont Judge.
IF I were going out in this lovely weather, I would wear nothing but 1970s outfits. Tavi Gevinson's got it all right, she knows how to pull on my heart strings. This shoot she did reminded me of why I even began to obsess with the 70s. Why I ritually watched dazed and confused so much when I was a tween that I tried to live like everyday was the last day of school. The 70s have been the backbone of my wardrobe lately. Most people who have known me for years know that I am not a jean pants type of girl, but people change. I feel like now, my different array of dramatically flared jeans have become a major staple in my wardrobe. Platforms and Flared Jeans are where its at people.

Outfit of the day/that looks familiar: 70's prints

Double segment!?!? 
I live for things of the past. I always say ___ era is my favorite era but anything before the 2000's is intriguing to me but today I'm paying tribute to the 70s. When I think of the 70s I also look back at the part when the redhead in Dazed and Confused says "The 50s were boring. The 60s rocked. And the 70s, oh my God, they obviously suck. Come on! Maybe the 80s will be like radical or something." I could help but yell at the my TV screen and say "HONEY, OH YOU ARE WRONG!" The 70s were great! They had sabbath, they had John Travolta(good looking), Zepplin, high waisted flare pants, platforms, DISCO!! The 70s were great okay?!
A lot of things have been coming my way that exude the best of the 70s like Stone Cold Fox's 2011 lookbook!! and Zara of course delivered my wish list item just on time!

So I channeled my best 70s gal(of course Black Sabbath comes on as Im typing this. Can I be any more 70s?) It's outfits like these that make me wish I lived in the 70s because I have no choice but to wear my pants with platforms cause they're so damn long in length. I want to show the pants off as best of possible. Surprisingly, this is the first day I've worn my Zara pants, why? Well I was just waiting for the right time to wear them but I decided why wait, I should just wear them everyday of my life right? The pants have this Tory Burch similarity to them and I dont really like Tory Burch, but these pants put Tory taaa SHAME.

WEARING: ZARA PANTS, YA. DA TOP, F21 PLATFORMS AND EARRINGS
