i dont know what it is about pictures like this

lohan.

sans prix

backstage. what i would give to go backstage at such a show. for some reason, even though magda looks extremely awkward in this picture, i think its one of my favorite backstagers.

new shoes.

magdalena

on a day like today

thank you, cobrasnake. tallulah morton is super cool.

hilow

tomorrow is friday yes

what a dream.
i like sequins, and bangs, and shiny things, and headbands, and irina.

party for the pilgrims

theres nothing i love more than being home, eating food, watching football, and celebrating with friends on thanksgiving. ever since i found out about the whole santa thing i think thanksgiving has become my number one favorite holiday.

balmain

erinwasson.

yes.

hideandseek

i dont think theres anything wrong with wearing a mask every once in a while.

when i see two towers, i walk

I have this thing about shoes.

I used to tell people incessantly that i was a bag person and that shoes didn't really do it for me. but that was when all i knew of was strappy jimmy choos and boring black pointed pumps. before i discovered louboutin and balenciaga, before i discovered the ultra-female who can wear shoes like these...ladies like clemence poesy, emmanuelle alt, and mk olsen. 

i finally get it.

the sartorialist v. the facehunter

  

i love that both the sartorialist and the facehunter found this girl on the same day and took her picture. she must have felt like a celebrity!  I think this says a lot about the two aesthetics of the guys, the facehunters younger more intimate thing that he's got going on, and scott's formality and elegance and utter chicness.

i love them both, and it helps that this girl is dressed to the nines!

movin movin movin

all of a sudden, with the mark of september on the calendar, my internal clock won't let me sleep past 9am. which is still majorly sleeping in to some of you, but absolutely not to me. i guess it's a good thing, since i can get so much more done at the end of the day, but i still am unsure of just exactly how well rested i could get with this new chop-off-6-of-the-hours-that-i-usually-get thing.

are you guys early birds or night owls?

the fog

i'm really excited for fall. neon rain coats. sneakers that are actually a necessity to keep rain from getting on my toes. pea coats and chai tea. studying and learning and reading. furnishing my apartment. ha, well, dorm.

the fair

alright, the fair is great, i've decided.

there was lots of sisterly bonding time, some funnel cake, cows a-plenty, and country music!

everything it should be and more, is what i mean to say.

a little bit more than slightly obsessed

 
 

okay so i'm stuck in wisconsin and scott schuman provides a GREAT escape from the daily middle american grind. i went to the fair today and looked so hard to find people who would catch scott schuman's eye and felt like i was coming up short, so i went and spent a while on thesartorialist and compiled the images that make my currently fashionably-woed heart sing.

i dont think they need much explaining!

dvd: gossip girl season 1

book: wreck this journal by kerri smith

tv: democratic national convention

music: disturbia by rihanna

mood: chapped lips. damn.

layering.

okay so i'm not even sure if i would have noticed this on the street, but scott schuman has an eye...it's undeniable. the layering skills that this girl has are impeccable. i love how delicate the fabrics are and yet how the look is sturdy. i'm going to seriously have to look into figuring out how to be better at layering--i always feel like it's too much of a hassle. I like it when i can just put something on and have it look good. but looking at this it's so obvious that with the right tricks it can bring an outfit to a whole new level.

hm. i'll get on it!

wisconsin!

 

 

hmm so yes. now im in wisconsin! helping family househunt. i wont be living here...im not sure i could if i was forced to (no offense wisconsonians)..but its nice for a little mini-vacation.

notice anything unusual on that menu? um, yeah.

but this was my travel outfit, and thats mysister.

we're going to the state fair tomorrow! i'm extremely excited.

ill keep you posted on it.

have any of you been to wisconsin?

weekdays in the summer.

 
   

i dont really know what this day was about. the gingham dress proved to be entirely comfortable and handy though, i have to say. one of my best friends was leaving for college and so i visited her and was so starving by the time that i left her house that J, J, A and i went to get burritos and carne asada fries at the best mexican place around. the camera came out, and the rest was history.

oh, and that bruise on J's leg? its from a soccer ball! who says fashionistas cant play rough?

aye aye, cap'n

i've got a thing for gingham.

i found this dress amongst heaps of many other ones, printed in plaids and wallpaper scenes. but no, this one weaseled its way into my already over-stuffed closet and i'm in love.

i don't know what it was about seeing this picture

yesterday. that made me feel so nautical it almost hurts. black and white gingham can count as nautical, right? kind of?

well, i try.

florals

so. i bought new clothes today. this dress being among the heap.

i watched this movie tonight called charlie bartlett, but its not so great.

actually, its so bad that i took pictures DURING the movie and its currently playing on my laptop, but minimized. ha. but im going to watch interview with the vampire after this! which ive never seen. and so im excited.

except all of my friends are making fun of me for my newfound obsession with vampires, ever since i finished the twilight saga.

hmmm.

yes yes yes

yes. 

leila, cate, annie, and i.

i guess when you're in india..if you have the chance...its kind of hard to resist doing something as silly as this. especially at 6 am, which is when we went, so as to avoid the hecklers and excess tourists.

turned out SO well.
