it makes no sense. but i'm desperate to connect

coffee (actually chai) with alexis and tessa to plan a clothing swap... if you are in l.a. and interested in joining us hit me up.  by the way casbah has the best chai.

i really need to get out more... i'm such a bookworm vampyre haha

sooooo... this outfit... is just a normal get up for running around town and such.  it's very me.  i would have preferred it with boots, but it was hot and well i wanted to be light footed and quick (yes, these are things i think about)...  so do you blog your regular outfits or do you plan outfits?  do you change your shoes because they create better lines in your photos?  i find that blogging has definitely made me more comfortable with dressing how i want.  there was a phase where i wondered if certain looks were "bloggable" or interesting... but that ended QUICKLY.  and now i feel like it's given me a freedom to be as unique and as loud as that may or may not be.  i just kind of don't really care about all that other stuff.  basically i guess i've come full circle.  wow insightful.

me not so new pantalones

i had to show off these jeans...  i've been dying stuff like crazy.  tie dye, dip dye and now stripe dye.  it's the best way to revamp without buying anything (well accept for the dye i guess).  i don't think i will ever get over cutting, shredding, ripping and dying stuff...  it's just too fun

these jeans started off like this and then this and now they are the underwater fantasy you see before you.  i feel like a hand painted george melies fantastical character... see....

by the way

i adore georges méliès

i'm so glad we went to the brewery artwalk today... to be honest i wasn't really feeling it, but the bf kinda insisted in a sweet subtle way and i am SO glad we went. it was good to be out in the open enjoying the beautiful weather, local art, old buildings, cold beer and my people...

it happens twice a year, so if you are in the l.a. area you should definitely try to make it to the next one... i added a few links above for other like minded nerdy internet readers... i google anything i am (half) interested in...

i got these pants from asos... and love them! they are an early bday present from the bf.... i saw them a couple weeks ago and was afraid they'd sell out in my size. i cropped them... along with a bunch of my other pants... i'm diggin the whole ankle thing... don't you think ankles are underrated? the shirt is so old and haggard but i just can't get myself to get rid of it... today i renewed it for spring by chopping off the long sleeves.

ok, i best get in bed...

ohh, i wanted to let any of you grrrls that were interested in the cobrasnake almost famous sunglasses know that i found them on ebay for $5.95.... yup and they are great quality, especially for the price. they are on their way to me in gold now since i know they are good quality and well... it's my bday month xoxo

these were taken a couple weeks ago when i went to see inception. i loved it. leonardo dicaprio is brilliant as ever, but man marion cotillard... what a stunner. i mean she is no doubt a brilliant actress (see la vie en rose if you haven't) but on top of that she is gorgeous! and she was THE ultimate ghostly beauty in inception.

yup, this is one of the scarves i got at f21 last time i was there... yes, those are little puff balls hanging from it... and yes, i got it in black too. the black doesn't have the lace like this one, but i love them both.

(vintage diy slip-last seen here), aa bra, f21 scarf, nastygal ruched with love socks, acne shank boots, vintage barneys bag, samesame jewelry)

i have been searching for round rose colored sunnies for what seems like FOREVER. some of you who are regulars here may remember this post... well, i still haven't procured any. these two are the row x linda farrow and are also perfect! i may just give in a buy them at barneys when they are available...

i ♥ the blue too

i saw these over at royalbluemoss!!!!
i've been in love with bowie since i was 14 so these were love at first sight.
although the litas are great, i wasn't sold until this! hot freakN damn is all i'm gonna say...
