New Year's Resolution

Firstly, I've come back! Yay! I've been so busy, and now, since it's winter break, I feel so free it's unbelievable.

Well, with a new year (and new decade) comes new inspiration. I think recently, I've become really dark or whatnot. Now, I'm drifting towards androgynist-- as in oxford shirts, cut-offs, etc. I also like the idea of adding a classic touch: red lipstick, feminine jewelry. Here's my inspiration for the next year.

I'll be posting an end of the year playlist by the end of this week. Hope everyone enjoyed their holiday!

Psychobabble all upon your lips...

Tigerlily - La Roux

Dangerous Animals - Arctic Monkeys

What Have I Done - Anna Ternheim

Til There Was You - The Beatles

Qui Est Cette Fille - Yelle
Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again - Bob Dylan

Suedehead - Morrissey

I'm A Cuckoo - Belle and Sebastian

Mis-shapes - Pulp

Pisces Fish - George Harrison

Basically, I'm so busy! If I don't update for a while, don't worry--- I'm alive! Just not on the computer.

But, hopefully, you'll enjoy the playlist. I'm somehow going back into the vault to look for better music. Some of this stuff I listened to a VERY long time ago, but it's still good. If you're looking for fashion on here, I'm saving all the fashion stuff for Fashion Week. Be patient.

And thanks for the wonderful comments...and for tolerating my obvious talent on Microsoft Paint, of course.

Bothersome.

A lot of things have been bothering me, and most of it is semi-fashion related (YAY!). But, I hope I don't sound like I'm PMS-ing because gosh, wouldn't that be embarassing?

a) NO ARCTIC MONKEYS ALBUM IN BOOKSTORE! I like to buy the CDs in the bookstore, so I have it on hand. If I know I'll never find it, I'll buy it online. But, I was very upset on August 25th to find no "Humbug." Boo-hoo.

b) One of the things I hate about bloggers, fashion bloggers specifically, now-a-days is the desperation to be famous. And I've seen this a lot. They'll start dressing to what they think is "avant-garde" (note the quotation marks). I know a lot of bloggers have recieved from fame (case in point, Tavi and Jane), but nobody can be like them. If we all were famous, that'd be, well, dumb. I hope I don't sound as though I want an equal class society or something! It's just that you should be yourself and not cater to others in order to become famous.

c) Last year, this girl, who says like more than necessary, in my school found Paramore to be her ultimate love and decided to add bird's nests to the sides of her hair to look "scene." Figure A describes it.


Figure A: Where the Blackbird lived before she took her broken wings and learned to fly
Now, it seems as though she found Cory Kennedy and tries to be like her.

Figure B: The shirt is a men's medium, obviously, can't you seriously tell?
I don't mean to poke fun. But really, don't follow what other people do. Cory Kennedy is not a fashion pariah. Hayley Williams most certainly doesn't one either. Follow the beat of your own drum. Be a Ringo Starr. Or Phil Collins. Or something...

I really hope I don't sound like a bitch. I'm not. I have a lot on my mind, and why not write it on here?

I also hope you enjoy my obviously protegic paint skills.

And thanks for all the comments! Sorry it took a while to get another post in!

A little rhythm on the side, just for good measure...

La Javanaise - Serge Gainsbourg

A Shot of Rhythm and Blues - The Beatles

I'm Confused - Handsome Furs

Pretty Visitors - Arctic Monkeys

When They Fight, They Fight - The Generationals

Desolation Row - Bob Dylan

Shadows - Au Revoir Simone

This Time Tomorrow - The Kinks

Salieri's Deposit - Lightspeed Champion

Finally saw Almost Famous maybe a week or two ago, and it was amazing. Absolutely brilliant.

Also, thanks for all the comments! I pretty much got all of them within 2 days! Thanks so much!

The Cool Kids

Bob Dylan & George Harrison; Neal Cassady & Jack Kerouac; the Lisbon Sisters; Rick Owens; Iggy Pop; and Julian Casablancas

You know how some people ask, "If you could invite so-many people to dinner, who would it be?"

This would be my answer.

So, this is really steering away from "fashion blog" per say. But, I've lost total inspiration, for now. Stick around and there will be a...turn around, I guess.

I smelt your scent on the seatbelt.

My current loves...in a love square, to put it cornily.

I know this is a fashion blog, but I really am interested in a lot of things equally, such as music, art, literature, and movies. Oh, and the taste of candy, haha.

And as you can see, no Beatles/George Harrison. You guys should already know I love them/him already.

Oh, loved and appreciated the feedback from the last post! I really appreciate it.

What are your current loves and obsessions?

Looking Ahead

So, I'm kind of preparing myself for junior year, which obviously is a stressful year. I am reading a ton of history books for my IB course, and I'm already looking at colleges. But, really, for now, that doesn't matter. I'm not even in the school building itself yet. Maybe I should stress about my wardrobe for now. Here's some inspiration and some pieces I want.
