Stocking Up for Spring

its been a while since i put up a post on me...and i guess now is as good a time as any. I apologize firstly for my photos. the lens to my camera gets cloudy at times and I'm not sure why it does that. It's really time for a me to get a new camera.

Today was a really casual day. I just ran a million errands around the city. The weather has been really nice lately...spring is definitely approaching. I love this peach ruffled cropped cardigan. its so girly without being over the top.

cardigan & tank - forever 21
jeans - torrid
shoes - Bijou

speaking of peach ruffles...i've kind of gotten addicted to them.

shirt/dress - H&M

And to soft color palettes in general. like this taupe sequined shouldered top. love!!!


shirt/dress - H&M
leggings -Torrid

and i love my body-con dresses...always need a good party dress. the shoulders on this one are so festive. i can stuff them and channel my inner Gaga.


Dress - H&M

lastly...i am officially obsessed with jumpers. the fact that i can just throw them on and BAM!...instant outfit. lol. no thought necessary. not to mention the fact that they are ridiculously comfortable!



my kitty likes to follow me around the house. hehe.


Jumper - Torrid
Belt - Thrifted



Telephone

Cigarette Sunglasses, Coke Can Rollers, Full Studded Leather Jacket and Bikini, and Phone hair?....no one else can pull it off like GaGa. Despite what many people think, i think this video is FIERCE. the dark subject contrasted with the obnoxiously bright color scheme is sheer genious. B&G...a match made in Heaven.

Wish List

Not that i need to spend another dime on clothes...



Landon Pigg


Most people know him as the guy who sings the song from the Debeers - A Diamond is Forever Commercial; Or maybe they know him from his first acting gig as Ellen Page's love interest in Whip It!; but I discovered Landon Pigg about 4 years ago...and I'm amazed at how many people still don't know he exists.

Landon is one of my FAVORITE artists. His first Album, LP, was on seriously heavy rotation on my iPod during my freshman year. His latest album, The Boy Who Never, is full of incredibly melodic and profoundly written songs. He is so lyrically talented, not to mention he plays the majority of the instruments you hear on his songs.

If you don't know him...you should!

Je l'aime!!

The sun has returned...and my closet is very happy about it.

i was feeling really monochromatic. i love the gray, black and white together. I love the net top to this otherwise ordinary dolman shirt. (P.S. its a size 8...i wear a size 18...you never know how it'll fit till you try it on!). Not to mention these are the coolest tights i own. The gray fishnet/lace pattern is so fly. you know you want them.






and I'm so glad i finally got my hands on some purple/pink lipstick. I've wanted some forever.

Shirt - H&M
Skirt and Necklace - Forever 21
Tights and Flats - Lane Bryant
Lipstick - Revlon in "Berry Haute"


I love being able to completely switch up my style depending on my mood. Sometimes i just want to wear some leggings and a pair of tennis shoes.






Oh...in case you're wondering...my shirt is in French. It basically says "I will never leave you and when you're sad I'll get you drunk". haha...what else are friends for.

Cardigan - Old Navy
T-Shirt - Cubist Literature (ETSY)
Jeggings - Asos
Shoes -Vans, personally designed for me by a friend
