Bart Simpson is my alter ego // OOTD

  • Tuesday, January 13, 2015

I adore Bart Simpson. At the young age of ten, Bart is the eldest child & only son of Homer & Marge of The Simpsons fame. Bart is known for his mischievousness, rebelliousness, & general disrespect for authority -- basically me. I first mentioned Bart in my August Vibes. I just relate(d) to him. He is the oldest kid & somehow manages to always get in trouble. I love his attitude & zest for life. Do you have a favorite television character? :]



Look how mischievous I am stopping on the train tracks! I'm such a hooligan.




Details are sometimes the most exciting part.



Button Down: eBay // Dress: Thrifted // Leggings: Forever 21 // Boots: H&M

I really love eBay because you can find some fantastic stuff. I had seen a Bart Simpson sweater I was lusting over but wanted to find a cheaper alternative. This button down fit the bill nicely. It was a little less than $25. The only thing is that it's a tad snug if I actually want to button it. Should I call it an open up instead? Hehe. With that said, I leave it open & it's perfect. It's also not made of the most high quality material, so it's slightly scratchy. eBay definitely has its pluses & minuses. 

Have you ever watched The Simpsons? What's your best eBay find? Who is your all time favorite television character? :]

      Oh yeah, it gets funnier as you age. As a kid I didn't understand all the humor. :]

    How fun! Never would have thought to use a Bart Simpson top as a fashion accessory, but you wear it well.

    That is such a great top! My favourite cartoon character is probably Donald Duck... or Tinkerbell... Haha there's so many! Makes me want to watch childhood movies.

    Dear Carmen, that Bart shirt is super cute and fun at the same time. Yes, I have watched the Simpsons and you have no idea how much I laughed thanks to them:-) My latest buy at ebay was a face peeling kit that I got at a much less expensive price and it was as described. My fave TV character is Scooby Doo. I grew watching that show and I loved it. I also wanted to say that I really love you free spirit attitude. Even thought I haven't personally met you, I can tell you are a super down to earth girl, very honest and a super fun human being to be around:-) You are beautiful inside and outside. Have a blessed week! XOXO, Jeannette

    I've actually never bought anything off of Ebay yet, but considering your awesome find I think I should! I used to love watching the Simpsons, I don't know why I stopped, I should start again haha. My favorite TV character is Willow from Buffy the Vampire Slayer! :)

      eBay is definitely hit or miss but there are some great deals. I never got into Buffy, but it's a cult classic so I should give it another watch. :]

    My sister would absolutely lose her mind if she sees that Bart Simpson shirt. She started obsessing (in a good, cute way) over the Simpsons not too long ago and it's all she watches on her study breaks haha!
