My 4th of July, OOTD HOTD

W00t!!!! Tis be the 4th and we set little fireworks off at moms. I finally got to fire off the big and loud fireworks I have been dying to light since forever. We got the big ones for new years back in 2012 and we couldn't set them off this whole time because they are so loud and big and me and my room mates live in an apartment complex. But Mama Boots went to the dollar store and picked up a bunch of little fireworks and candy to get us through the weekend. My inner Pyro was most please XD

My outfit for the 4th started with a pair of cut offs I just made the night before because I didn't have any denim shorts to wear and lets be honest, nothing says summer or 4th of July like jean cut off shorts. They were a pair of baggyish jeans I had picked up from Goodwill a few weeks ago and I cut them to be longer than short shorts but shorter than bermuda shorts. I threw them in the wash a few times to give the ends a worn look. I layered a bright blue spaghetti strap top with a red, white and blue tiedye tank and topped it off with a super bleached vest I had made out of an old jean jacket years ago (the back says "Undercover Skittle Ninja". On my feet I wore a pair of thrifted platforms with denim denim straps. Super cute.

And as for my hair, I am wearing my bright red Ariel wig with my  blue Hatsune Miku pony tail clips. The Miku clips were a set that came with a base wig and the clips actually came curly when I ordered them. The ones I actually wanted were a bit shorter and strait with a bit of a wave at the end to the point where its just a little flip but it ended up being curly. And it was SUPER curly too. And with the curls in individual locks, it took forever to brush the curls out but I managed it. I actually worked with the clips for about 2 hours or so, just brushing and styling. I wanted to make them into buns but it just wasn't working out so i braided them and ended up loving the final outcome. and with them tied off at the top of the braid, it kind of looks like they are little buns with braids coming out so it was a bit of a win win.  =)
