Reader Opinion: Belt Bags and Pouches

Hello lovely readers! I have so many things swirling around in my head at the moement. Summer is the perfect opportunity for inspiration and starting new. I am so excited for the semester ahead, and for all of the amazing things that are to come in the future! Woohoo!
Okay, that being said, I've been really into a really free, natural feeling style vibe lately. I think it started with my roommate's job at Free People and continued on throughout my trip in Mexico.  I always joke around that I'm a punk hippie, which I think is funny because they can be so opposite. Anyway, I've ben really into things like wearing tons of things wrapped around my arms, feather and dream catcher earrings and accessories, and....bags and pouches.


like this pouch necklace! - wow, when searching for a photo of a pouch necklace, I found so many amazing pictures that I think I want to make a few...perhaps I will make a post on pouch necklaces? Would you guys like a tutorial? Or should I just sell some on my Etsy shop? BOTH?

I am going to the Electric Zoo Festival at the beginning of September, and I am searching for an alternative to a purse or backpack. I usually wear either a small backpack or small messenger-type bag to concerts and music festivals. This time, though, I don't feel like being restricted. When I dance, I hate having all of my belongings burdening me. That being said, I am like a Boy Scout when it comes to these things- always prepared- so not having any kind of bag at all isn't really an option.
So I ask you, dear readers:
What is a good, stylish alternative to carrying a purse?
I am open to all ideas! I am your guinea pig!

What do you guys think about belt bags? I am really interested in them lately. I think because they remind me of something a fairy or a Medicine Woman would carry around trinkets and powders in. The leather ones are also quite Medieval Times in an "I collect swords" kind of way. However, do they come across as simply being a souped-up fanny pack? Because I am definitely not a fan of the tourist-at-Disneyland look.




These examples from Etsy and elsewhere on the web seem nice actually!  What do you think?

And, an extra question, if you're still with me:
How do you make really girly or natural outfits feel more tough? My instinct is always to wear boots, or studded shoes. It's all in the shoes, sometime!

I JUST CAME TO SAY HELLO

HEY you guys!  I just wanted to let you know that I'm still here...no te preocupes.
I've been super ridiculously busy...recently moved into a new apartment, working many many hours at my new job, about to have two internships, a big trip to Mexico coming up, meeting new friends and nights sitting around talking about movies and comics and music and relationships and life.
SUMMER!
I'm also working on some cool new art and fashion projects that I'm pretty excited about. I'll hit you guys up with a peek soon enough.

I ALSO wanted to take this time to mention that I finally have my new Etsy shop up!
It is called "palloncino" which means "balloon" in Italian.
Here's the little mini-description I've got up at the moment:
Welcome to my NEW SHOP, palloncino! Here you will find whimsical clothing and accessories made with a lotta love. Think Hello Kitty on Adderall at Warped Tour.
I'll be adding a ton of new stuff up in the coming weeks, so please check it out!

Thanks so much for reading, you guys, and I hope you're all having an amazing summer! How's it going? Personally, I am mentally preparing myself for the midnight premiere of HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS PART TWO on Thursday night. It brings a lot of questions: is this really the end? what will i wear? WILL I EVER STOP OPENLY WEEPING ABOUT THIS?!?!?!?!?

WEEKEND UPDATE

WHAT'S POPPIN you guys?
Just thought I'd check in real quick....

Firstly, this is my life right now:


I'm learning Final Cut for my media class. I have to make a self portrait...my least favorite kind of assignment. But I'll show you guys when it's done.

I found some pretty ace video tutorials for the program on youtube. For example, these.

♥     ♥     ♥     ♥     ♥     ♥     ♥     ♥ 
Secondly, it's time for shameless social media..harassment.

Follow me on Tumblr HERE for doodles and Harry Potter jokes.
----
If you have a Pinterest account, follow me HERE for many inspiration boards of cute  apartments and cuter dogs.
----
Follow me on Twitter HERE for links and me complaining about my lack of sleep.

See? I have way too many accounts. Can you tell I really, really wanna be internet famous? SO SHAMELESS.  Also, I am soon gonna start posting up videos and also, the real excitement of the day, I'm gonna open an Etsy shop soonYAY! Also, at first I forgot the other "o" in "soon" so that sentence read: "I'm gonna open an Etsy shop, son."

Also, I went to a rad dubstep concert last night at the club Hiro.  Was anyone else there? The music was wubwubwubwub-werrrrr-werrrrr-werrrr-wreeeee fantastic. Unfortanately I didn't take any pictures of my outfit. Which sucks, cause I looked totally cute lols. OH WELL NEXT TIME.

What have you been up to this weekend? DO YOU FEEL SPRING IN THE AIR?
