classic shirt









(funktional shirt, floral bib necklace, aa opaque tights, jeffrey campbell sudded creepers)

ive always loved a crisp white shirt. i recently bought this one by funktional that has cut out shoulders. its a nice twist to the classic white shirt. i found this bib necklace at my school's scholarship store. at $2 i really couldnt say no. its the perfect addition to a collared shirt, much like a bowtie, but more feminine.

a few weeks ago i went to an art show at barracuda. i really cant remember much from that night, but kelly sent me this photo she had of us. and of course i donned another white shirt. its been my uniform lately.

shimmer





last week i learned how to make bustiers. its probably one of the garments i enjoy making the most. there are so many options and different directions you can go. in class we were asked to make a bustier + skirt combo. i made it out of a slightly shimmery light pink fabric and the skirt is sort of a patchwork panel of pinks and silver. very girly, i know. i took it a step further by adding chains, sequins, and pearls on the front of the bustier (inspiration taken from the miu miu tights).

ps. sorry the skirt is so wrinkled. :P

frenzy

my outfit friday night to see new moon with the bf. the whole twilight/new moon thing is really taking over the world. everywhere i turn something twilight is there. and quite frankly, im not ashamed to say.. i kind of like it.

ps. the movie was really really good!

rollercity USA

sunday was kellys 24th bday party. we headed to moonlight for some 70s style skating. we were definitely the only ones skating in fur. but regardless of the weird looks we all kept getting, it was a super fun night and here are the photos to prove it..

ps. whoever says rollerskating is just like rollerblading is a freaking liar! it took me a while to adjust.

hello 1993



last week kelly and i headed to the vice anniversary party. it was 90s theme night so we decided to grunge it up a bit. i wanted to keep it girly so i went with my baby pink gunne sax dress and paired it with the red chloes. the line was rediculously long and i was in no mood to stand around so we went to val's loft event instead. needless to say we felt like we were "a blast from the past" for the rest of the night, since the later party did not require 90s attire. -sigh- another reason why i do not like themed parties..
