"I was trying to go with strength, fragility, and poetry, this tension that is in life and reality"

What I'm Wearing:
Vintage Pink One-Piece Swimwear, American Apparel Acid Wash Denim, Pink Acid Wash Tote: Primark, Vintage Belt, Ray-Ban Aviators + H&M Black Plimsoles.
Sometimes you have to drift out of your sartorial comfort zone; be outrageous and wear something you wouldn't normally ever wear. This is what I did today with pink. I usually stay clear away from it but after I bought this eye-catching pink swimsuit, I decided to return to my 10-year old roots and throw some bubble gum shades into an ensemble. I am not entirely sure what motivated me to embark on what I like to call a "colour binge", but I fear it might have something to do with what is my severely over-caffeinated, extra-hyper state of mind. Sugar-free redbull has become a huge part of my diet, which isn't healthy, but hey, its so addictive! And I think my mood is adequately expressed in the photos: I was being such a goof.

what is the one piece of wisdom you wish you had known all your life?
xx
as a stripy pirate pantaloon and crop top wearing fashionista you seem to make no mistakes in your personal style but do you believe in the idea of a fashion faux pas? and if you do is there a fashion faux pas that you secretly love and would like to pull out of the realms of obscurity?
What kind of style did you have in high school? Has it changed?
love the Outfit!!!
I like your blog so much!!!
you are so pretty and very charismatic!! your outfits always beautiful and cool!
i just have opend one! i would like you to watch it and tell me what do you think!

I read your blog every week and i think its truly a breathe of fresh air especially in my dull fashionless office day!.....my question is....you talk about your friends alot,trips you are taking, where you live and your studies. You probably havent mentioned it because you do not want to or maybe you just think people may not be interested....but do you have a man in your life? what I mean is do you dress for anyone? is there a male who inspires the things you wear? Sometimes you dress sexily [you must get alot of attention looking as good as you do!] then sometimes i can feel that masculine energy, you talked a while back of great love...do you have one? x
Why can't the whole world be Frassy?
What a stylin', quirky world that'd be, eh?
Utopia.
you look gorgeuous!!!
very very nice...I see you are also a sugar free red bull drinker...oh thats my fav!

love the shorts, they're perfect for summer
OK OK.
Which was your favourite Power Ranger?
If you have no idea what i'm on about, my stand by question is: What kind of musical tastes do you have?
Finally, as a regular reader I must mention what a top blog this is and what excellent style you exude. I'm envious! x
hee hee! awesome photos! it's obvious you're having fun!

I love this outfit! The vintage belt is absolutely amazing!!
hi frassy(:
i swear, i feel like your soul friend or something! you should read my myspace. i am a bohemian {and these are the words i used, too!} spirit just like you.
i've only just started my fashion blog {as in, today} and was wondering if you could help get the word out about me?
i love your fashion style. really(:
What great pics :) You look stunning!
kudos!! im an avid reader, youre definitely an inspiration for this texas girl!
love your belt!
hmmm...
would you rather always have to say EVERYTHING that's on your mind... or never speak again?
LOOOVE your Outfit, I always enjoy your blog!
if you could step into the shoes of any character from a book for the day, which would you choose and why?
your hair looks lovely btw :)
Through your own blogging experiences have you any advice or tips on making and expanding a blog?
Love your outfits and style! Just started a blog myself (none on my own pictures yet) as I want clear, gorgeous shots like the ones you always include-you've set standards too high! xxx
Wow, a wildfox couture t shirt! Here's your question:
If everyone started to look like you (and I mean really look like you) would you change your look and be unique and individual again or stay the same and be frassy?
what is your favourite thing to do ever?
This outfit reminds me of eating icecreams by the beach. You should wear pink more often, you work it well!!
If you could only wear three pieces of clothing for the rest of your life... what would they be?
Love the pants, very weird and wonderful.
If you were a Disney Princess, which one would you choose to be?
xoxo
"Sometimes you have to drift out of your sartorial comfort zone; be outrageous and wear something you wouldn't normally ever wear"
- So true, and I must do it more often theres nothing worse than being stuck in a rut! That pink bathing suit under shorts look is fabulous..and wear pink more often it looks amazing on you!
and now a question for you...I love how you express yourself through your style, you take chances and you dress for yourself and no one else. Were you always this way or was there a time in your life that you didn't have the confidence and self esteem to dress the way you wanted to?

That pink swimsuit is kee-razy! But I think it's good to go out of your comfort zone like that - adventure wins!
If you were on a hot air balloon with William Shakespeare, Betsey Johnson, Sylvia Plath and Mary-Kate Olsen and had to push three of them off and spend possibly eternity with the fourth one, what order would you chose, who would you save and why?
Following on twitter :)
ok here's a question:
If you were stuck on a deserted island and could only pick TWO items of clothing to have, what would they be and why? Remember, only two...undergarments and socks count hahah
I don't even know what I would answer to this!
What is the ONE thing that sticks out in your mind as your ultimate success or failure?
What type of flower would you like to make an outfit out of?
love the blog btw :)
cute outfit!
love color combination!
ps: we love your blog
I was pointed here by chickdowntown's blog, and I love yours! You're so creative, it's delish. :)
My question is:
Do you have any fashion hangups? Things that you just can't bear, that in reality aren't so bad, but you just can't do?
I simply cannot wear white socks with black shoes, even athletic shoes. I was made fun of by some girl in middle school for wearing funky white textured socks with some black flats. And I just can't get it out of my head... recently read about someone with a phobia of pairing black and brown. :)
Hahah awesome - loving the setting!

The love the outfit, it screams ME on a personal level. Great blog as well.

What style would you love to see make a comeback?
hockiemack at hotmail.com
My question is: If you could have any super power, what would it be?
I love Wildfox! Cool giveaway!
You're style has a sort of vintage flair to it so i wonder if you are inspired more by works of literature or cinema or art rather than typical "fashionistas" of today?
What era do you most wish you had grown up in and who or what is the one inspiration for it?
i'm a chickdowntown facebook fan :)

How has your life and travelling influenced your style?

I'm a fan on the book of faces.
would you prefer to be Marie Antoinette, Audrey Hepburn, Maid Marion, Carrie Bradshaw or Mulan?
Frassy!! My question to you is who would win in a race between you and Erin Wasson?
Do you think you wear born at the right time, or do you think you belong in a totally different era?
Some people find their fashion inspiration in nature, others in music, what facet of life inspires you to dress the way you do?
Everyone needs to venture out of their comfort zone, as you did, just for the hell of doing so. It doesnt have to be like a big statement or anything, just something different for a day. Although, I wouldn't have gone with the pink, it turned out very bubbly on you.
Toilet paper: over or under?
you are dressed fun and you seem awesome fun!
what is happiness contingent upon?
If you could pick your favorite designer, who would it be?
p.s. I LOOVEEE wildfox couture =)
LOVE Wildfox Couture! What a great giveaway!
What was your most successful fashion risk?
Love these pics!
Here's my question: Who would win in a fight, a squirrel with a jet pack, or a dog with a blindfold?
Great colors!
X, fashion-nerdic.
Red Bull may give you wings but did you know that Pringles could give you duck beaks?
ahahah cheesy, I probably won't even win with that question but I'm eating Pringles right now :D I hope I win though, those shirts so cute! I love Wildfox Couture even though I'm too poor to afford anything from Wildfox Couture :(
I love those tees!
When did you first fall in love with fashion?
I guess my question would be...what is most refreshingly original question you've ever been asked?
