So these two are big inspirations, especially Jimi, who in typical music legend style died at the age of 27 due to drug overdose (reminds me of Amy Winehouse- R.I.P.).
On with the outfit...
Starring:
A vintage-esque tee (LOL Vintage)
Green cut-offs (Klique B. Jeans)
Worn fake leather boots (Wanted Shoes)
Arrowhead necklace (unknown)
...
Why the knotted shirt? Believe it or not, there is a delicate balance to boho style, even fashion in general. If I didn't knot the shirt à la Kristen Stewart, the shirt would cover up the shorts and I would look like a six-year-old camp-goer. Not good.
Why the boots? It's the end of July, after all. I would've worn moccasins for this outfit, but in my opinion they are overused and uninteresting. Don't worry, I'm kidding. Kind of. This summer I have literally worn moccasins at least four times a week, and as my mom says, "Those aren't summer shoes. They look so warm." Well, I still do wear them, but sometimes change is good, though moccasins are amazing; they're overused for a reason!
Where'd you get the necklace? It is so cool, unique, amazing, and it perfectly complements your outfit! Why thank you, that is SUCH a sweet thing to say! *wink, wink* I actually got it in tourist-buzzing Saugatuck in a Native American-type, nature inspired store (a boho chica's dream!). It was only......*drum roll please*....FOUR dollars! Nice...
Well I hope you enjoyed!
Ciao!

OK, I know what you mean about music being a fashion influence. I'm a bona fida Beatlemaniac. The fab four are my life ^__^
Any way, would you like to follow each other? My blog is http://bobblyrainbowsocks.blogspot.com/
Flower,x.
Sure! I followed u (: Yes- I have in the last year become an aficionado of the Beatles. Love Blackbird, Hello Goodbye... <3
By the way, just wondering, how did u find my blog? I am always curious because usually the only ppl who see my blog are family and friends which stinks... I really need to "get it out there".... xD
Hiya! Its Flower again. Thank you for following me. I'm on my Blackberry at the moment, but once I'm on a computer I'll follow you too. So thanks again :)
I love Blackbird too, but my favourite Beatles songs are I Am The Walrus, I'm a loser and Do You Want To Know a Secret. But it changes all the time really.
When I'm looking for new blogs to read, I generally look at the links people leave in comments on blogs. Usually I look at blogs that get hundreds of comments, like Style Rookie. That's probably how I found you :)
Don't worry about only family and friends reading your blog. I had that for about six months before I started to gain followers. I got most of those from commenting on others blogs. Also I joined independent fashion bloggers yesterday, and have gained heaps of followers from it. So I'd recommend trying those :)

Cool, thanks! Yep, I did post there. I am also on IFB! What's your username? I'll add you :) Mine is lilybean36.
Hiya! That's cool that your on IFB too. My user name is Flower. I haven't got the hang of it quite yet though- its a bit baffling. Also the number of emails- kerazy. How about twitter? Are you on there, or Tumblr?

No twitter or tumblr- but I added u on IFB! Ya- its kinda confusing o.O not sure about it myself :) do you have any feedback for my blog? I'll look at yours, too, and let you know (:
Hi again. I'll take a look and give you some feedback now.
Thanks! As for your blog, it's really great! I love the pop of colors, and your writing is really great! I would love to see some of your outfits, though, so maybe post some pics of that? Your blog is wonderful tho! (:
So, feedback. Well I can't properly view the whole blog ( phone still) but I can give you some on this post.
Well, firstly I like the way you have made it a bit cultural, rather than just about fashion. Posts with a wide range of references are always more interesting.
The pictures are good too. The sepia is nice- but maybe you could include one or two colour shots, to show the colours.
Thanks for your feedback on my blog! As for the outfits,well I'd like to post pics,but my parents forbade it so I use drawings instead. Look about two posts back if you wish to see these :)
So thanks and hope this helps
Ok! Thank you (:
