Summer Hunting...

Summer time in the city! (also in my backyard). It has been getting hot and sticky like the concrete jungle we all know so well in the summer time. I love the sunshine and the warmth, but I could do without the humidity and the overload of hot bodies (literally, not the figurative and aesthetic kind). Even Hoboken has been swarming with residents and visitors alike. It's summer time like I said.
I have been trying to beat the heat while giving my legs some sun action, in these little not-so-new-anymore shorts. These Forever21 staple shorts have become a favorite fast, making getting dressed easier and more sophisticated.
My neutral (legit neutral) shoes played up the city safari ensemble. And I also, tried to put on accessories, which is always difficult for me. My room is such a vacuum where everything vanishes (if I had any jewelry in the first place). So I took a mini safari into my sister's room to see if she has any goodies. I ended up with a couple, including an earring for a bangle (yup, I did that).
Is that a wild boar? No it's actually a group of tourists... Well I've gone hunting.
 What do you wear to beat the heat... and the tourists?

SuperHero...

superRandi
Call me what you want... nerd, geek, dweeb...It's fine, I am all of the above. I have this odd fascination for the most random things, especially in my movie and television selections. As you all saw before I am a sucker for period dramas but I also get too involved the action movies based on graphic novels (Xmen, Iron Man, Priest... the list goes on).
PoW!!
I decided to wear one of my favorite tees, my loved and worn Forever21 Wolverine shirt. I was over prepared and wore it when the Wolverine movie came out a couple years ago. Yup, I'm corny. I feel like it was in fact purchased for that specific movie going event, but it incorporated itself into my wardrobe as a less dressed-up solution.
did I hear someone calling for help....?!?!
I paired it with my summer white blazer and my "neutral" cheetah print pumps, and a large earring (yes, singular...I couldn't find the other one).
waiting for the surprise attack
Along with my new super glittery Butter London nail varnish called "West End Wonderland." It is beautiful. So sparkly and lovely. I once again opened the order from the British company, and in the small box were newer colors; two glittery ones and two less exciting summer shades. My heart was set on this golden glitter wonderland at that moment.
Who said we all can't be Super Heroes?
