Holy fuck. How long have I been looking for you


I have wanted a cape ever since I stumbled upon a beautiful dark grey wool cape that I cannot ever find again. It could have been about a yuear ago. Mostly I find ponchos when I'm looking for my cape online. Then I came up with this idea that I will find a supercute rain cape, something with a shape that doesn't look like a plastic bag. That I have not found yet, it must exist in this magical world I created, along with white narrow calf rain boots. I made these both up in my head but haven't been able to find them in the real world. I did however find this cape by AA. I do really like it but I would like to see it in person. I'm not a huge fan of fleece in general and if I get a cape I would like it to keep me warm. Like a jacket warm, not a little coverup warm. I started working again today and I just might have found what my next paycheck is going towards. yay

As fake french as can be




Something I wanted to do besides the desktop thing was outfits. I got the idea from missbehave, they have this thing call 100 days of outfits. They've only made it to day fifty something. I'm not sure I can claim to do 100 outfits, but I'll do as many as I can before I crash and forget about this project. So this is outfit #1 and it's my fake french outfit. I asked for the scarf for christmas and my mom got the hat to go with it. Both from street vendors in nyc, glasses too. The coat was from some hole in the wall coat store in ny, it was $20. The sweater was a gift most likely from like saks or something. The striped shirt underneath is from the walrus, a thrift store near my school. Pants are from U.O. and the black booties are from wal-mart of all places. They were $5 and I had a moment of weakness. I wear them almost daily these days, they got kinda fucked up from the salt but I pretend not to notice. I hope you like outfit #1

I may have gone to a party


I'm not really down with the social scene at my school, so when I go to a good party it makes me very happy. I had a nice adventure that led to being at this party. The person whose chest I am in is Ashton, she loves her boobs. I guess I thought they were pretty good too.

wait, one more.


This picture is from Juxtapoz, it's one of the links on the side in the art & music section. it's an awesome magazine and this is a fly ass piece. inauguration, wheeeeeee

Fuck yes, inauguration.



So after a few hours of scrambling and waiting to hear back from people I finally got a ride to inauguration!! We're driving to frederick and then there are buses from there. I hope I don't get crushed or freeze to death, but I am soooooooooo happy to go. There are going to be so many people there and it is such an awesome fucking thing that this man is going to be our president. For christmas my oldest brother gave me an Obama belt buckle and there is no better time to wear it then tomorrow. Today is Martin Luther King Jr. day, I'm not ignoring that I'm just to psyched for Barack. so... YAY MLK! On a more self-absorbed note, I have no idea what to wear tomorrow. I doubt anyone will be looking at my outfit, but I think I should be dressed to the nines. My main concern is warmth, I'm from Florida and winter takes a tough toll on me. Yet at the same time I want to dress patriotic. On election day I wore this Jackie-O inspired outfit; red wool high-waisted skirt, blue & white striped button down shirt, lots of pearls and white peep toe flats. Ooh and a navy blazer. The pictures I took were awful so I'll let you imagine a prettier picture. I'm ripping my shirt open like the hulk in the actual picture, I was really excited. So I can't wear the same outfit but something close to it, I guess. Either way I'll take hundreds of pictures and put some up. FUCK YES OBAMA

Desktop OCD?


I have a thing with the desktop of my computer. My mac is my lover and when my mood changes the desktop changes. I'm always on it for hours and , I can get sick of a picture really quickly. I was thinking about doing some continuous things on my blog. One of them being showing my desktop every so often and explaining what mood I was in that made it change. I collect pictures that I find online that I like and put them into this folder called "etc." Rarely do I repeat pictures. Over the holiday I was in a good mood, I was happy to be back in NY and I was happy to be in Brooklyn. I was running around and super busy but for a part of it I was being so silly. Since this has been my desktop I haven't felt as silly as the day I put it up, but now I want it to remind me to be silly. At school it's too cold for sillyness. I hope others love this picture as much as I do. I still haven't figured out which one I am. Most likely Cher I'm not country enough or have the boobs to be Dolly.

There would have been a show.


Today is thursday and every thursday night is my radio show. Feel free to listen from here or here. It's called the Electric Jellyfish and normally it runs from 7-8. It's my favorite time of the week because I get to sit there for an hour and think about nothing except for music. Now today I had a meeting from 6-7 so I was anxious to get out of my meeting so I could go do my show. But since it was a new year the security wanted a new key list and the station manager forgot to send it in. So I couldn't get the key and didn't have my show. Hopefully next thursday everything will be in order. I got some new music and really can't wait to play it. I get really into artists for a little while and then won't play them for months. Right now I've been listening to Lykke Li, MGMT, Nat King Cole, Animal Collective, Billie Holiday and a few Amy Winehouse songs. In about two weeks, that'll change. Except for Billie. I will always listen to her.

P.S. I want this shirt.


I found this shirt during one of my many hours of doing random searching online. I think it's the classiest NWA shirt I have ever seen. Some have album covers and huge pictures which is nice but I still think this is better. I've been really into big lettering on t-shirts, but I guess a lot of people are right now. I don't own it yet but I will soon. If you're a fan of NWA then you'll be a fan of this shirt. If you're not a fan of NWA, why not?

Such a creeper device


I keep seeing these commercials late night when I'm watching tv. I think these are such a creeper device. I understand the wanting to watch a movie while someone is sleeping I guess but there is no reason to have this, besides being a super creep. They are always talking about being able to hear other peoples conversations and it's always some guy overhearing that two girls think he's cute. Fucking creep.

Flying Fuck


I am absolutely in love with this necklace. I can't find it anywhere. This picture was in a blog post a few years ago and that blog no longer exists. I've googled "flying fuck necklace" and similar things come up but none as good as this one. If anyone finds it I would be in your debt.

I will always love Amy Winehouse



Apparently Amy Winehouse is getting her life together, but even if she didn't I will always be a fan. I have her two albums Frank and Back to Black and both are really good. I love her voice and her crazy drug induced stunts. I loved Back to Black and had to warm up to Frank but the songs I would say that are the best (on both albums) would be: Tears dry on their own, Wake up alone, I heard love is blind and (There is) no greater love. we'll see if she keeps out of trouble and stops putting cigarettes out on her face.

Hooray for obsession


I have decided to start a blog. I have an obsession with fashion blogs and online stores. My obsession has become my inspiration. I figured that I should do something constructive with my time and this is what I have started. My friends and I like to dress up and sometimes take pictures. I go to college hopefully  working on my dream of becoming a teacher. I love music and art, and fashion as art. I just arrived back to school and am getting ready to start spring semester. Hopefully we get some great pictures out of it.
