Whenever people ask me to describe my style, I usually say I'll pretty much try out every and any look except for the sporty, athletic thing. It must be due to my utter hopelessness at and lack of passion for all sports since the day I was born, that I just have a natural aversion to dressing in any sort of athletic garb reminiscent of those dreadful P.E. days where I would often pretend to be sick on and received my very first B in "attitude" on my report card. Totally worth it though.
However I can't deny that sneakers are so ridiculously comfortable to walk around in. The bouncy soles make me feel like I'm ready to do all kinds of hikes around the city (which I unexpectedly sort of did, looking for good places to shoot in). Sneakers just somehow give you that extra injection of energy and pumped-up high, merely by being comfy.
I'm still not the biggest fan of the sporty look. My sheer nonchalance for and ignorance of sporting remain just as strong as ever. However you can keep me satiated with gold, metallic embellishments (like the stripes on these Adidas shoes, which was what drew me to purchase my first pair of casual sneakers in the first place), paired up with the right amount of girliness, like with this pleated, flared black skirt.

Bit random, but how do you order from GMarket without that korean number that's needed that I think only korean residents get?
ReplyDeletehmm what Korean number? When I signed up for Gmarket I never had to type in any special Korean number...
DeleteI pretty much wear sneakers every day. ahaha
ReplyDeleteBut very cute, gives a super school girl kind of vibe. (:

found the route
You are rocking this loook :) I'm not much of a sporty dressy person either though I love my oversized hoodies. Those sneakers actually look really nice! Also loving the SG jacket!
ReplyDeleteYou look amazing! You pull this outfit off nicely, love it!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Me too! I'm not a fan of the sporty look either. That is totally my sister's look though. I just think I'm too dressy for all that. I actually only own 3 t-shirts. Everything else is tanks or blouses. LOL. But the shoes look cute on your anyway! <3
ReplyDeletetoni
Lovely lovely pictorials Izzy!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI used dress sportily growing up but am now chucking them all away except for my converse of course! :)

You look like a doll in some of these shots. I am so damn jealous. You're so white too!!! I wish I could achieve how white you are but since I've been enjoying the beach lately this year, it's gonna be hard. Overall, I don't think I'll ever achieve it actually.. so never mind. I totally love how you paired it up with those shoes. Very wise! :)
ReplyDeleteI work at the blacktown maybe parramatta one! It was so tiring... they just kept piling up. Wow, sometimes 3 times a day. That's crazy! I get scared ordering at subway... it always seems complicated but now since I work there, I guess I'll be able to manage now!
Lovely photos! I'm so jealous of your warm weather right now. Out of interest, how tall are you?

You should try modeling for a brand because you certainly look like you've done this since..forever! Lovin' the outfit and you look pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteI detest P.E. since the day I had my first lesson.. I remember that I always talked my way out when we had to do gymnastic moves and when I had my period, I always skip P.E. using it as an excuse haha. Oh the good old times.
I'm certainly not a fan of sneakers, but like you stated above, they are comfortable. However, I do like high tops or any design that is a bit girly or paired with bright pastel colors on a white base colored sneaker.
Your look is beautiful.
