I die.

It's Fashion Week. Therefore, I must speak Rachel Zoe-ese, obviously. Duh. Of course.

Really enjoyed Erin Wasson's collection. Except I live in New England. Cold. Most of the time. And my body's not that much of a wonderland. I feel so uncomfortable showing off my abs like Freja in the first look. But, otherwise, super fantastic. (And Irina's pixie cut? Kind of sorta AWESOME.)

When I first saw this, I almost screamed. I LOVE! J'DORE! ME ENCANTA! (Sorry Spanish speakers, can't do the upside down exclamation point.) I'm wearing this to prom, enough said. Or if I suddenly get invited to some chic event in place of an awful school dance, then yes. (I hate dances.)

On my old blog, City Chic Please, I wrote a love letter to David Neville and Marcus Wainwright. Yet again, they have read my mind. They design so much to my aesthetic, it's creepy. I would write another love letter, but that would be really overdoing it. (Oh, if you want to read my former love letter, click here.)

Please bound and gag the tacky beach setting. But, the clothes were really awesome. Not as great as the S/S 09 lookbook with Kirsten Dunst. I still liked this collection though.

Will. Wear. This. Outfit. AH! This wasn't my favorite A.Wang collection (I'm a big fan of his early collections), but I loved the whole twisted Americana feel to this one. And I will put my hair in a braid sometime soon. Kind hard---my hair's curly. But, the battle will be on!

I've been so busy lately from school/fall play (director! whoohoo!)/family stuff that I'm pretty much collapsing from stress...hence me being a week late on this blog post. Just as a warning, it might take as long for the next post too.

And Brit, if you're reading this, I will forever miss NYC Art Style. RIP

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!

Finals & Other Stuff

So, my first final's on Friday, and gosh, I'm behind on studying (I basically spent the weekend studying for two tests today). I might be off here for a little bit, so please don't think I've gone to another dimension or something.

But, nothing but musical has gone on in my life. I saw the Yale Wiffenpoofs (their male a capella group) at my sister's school on Saturday, and they were awesome. Being a huge Gilmore Girls fan, I was psyched to see them. I even got to talk to them afterwards! I wish I had pictures, but it would be slightly creepy to put a group of guys dressed in tuxs on my blog. But, I googled their official site, if you're really that interested...

And thanks for all your feedback on the shoe post! I really don't think the comment box for the Jarvis Cocker one worked (say what!?), so boo Blogger.

Also, the awesome Brit published a post on her Xanga blog inspired by my shoe thing! Please check it out.

But, I'll be back probably next Thursday. So, be patient, my dears. Ta ta!

New Favorite Selby

So, I've been posting just of stuff I love/have fallen in love with (yes, Jim Sturgess will be on here sometime soon), and you must be getting sick of it by this point. But I have no camera. Boo me.

It's 3 weeks and 1 day until Christmas. Be patient!

But, here's the point of my post. I found this amazing Selby of an actress named Alessandra Torresani. Why does this Selby stand out from others? Well, the Hello Kitty memorabilia might play a part in my love of the it.

I only can wish...

I never really wanted to have children.

Then, I saw this picture.

How adorable.
