vintage ck tee & coat. vintage zodiac boots-ebay, thrifted belt, your eyes lie jeans

my mind is missing in action... scrambled egg effect
love light floats and i catch it and pull it down back into my realm 
with melody medicine
and a heart that has been broken a million times over

love conspiracies rule me

dress-goodwill, cardigan-bravegrrl, shoes-little raisin vintage/etsy, choker-fitchbace/etsy, sunnies-miracle eye

it's been awhile
i'm unmotivated
but trying
i made this cardi
well i thrifted it and tie dyed it in my kitchen
it's a small kitchen
but i like my small apartment
i sleep on a futon in the living room
and somehow still believe i'm a princess of the deep sea even though logic tells everyone else otherwise

good day to you

this sweet cardigan will be available here after i have a few more sips of coffee

she often got strange notions in her head.  i guess they weren't that strange though.  she was normally an eccentric layerer.  Wearing things that seemed to have no purpose to an outsider.  sometimes wearing things she got from people just to remember them.  like that  piece of string she pulled from his blanket and tied around her wrist.  but for some reason she was craving simplicity.  like it would actually slow stuff down in that roller coaster of a brain.

but really i just want to draw on this dress with a sharpie

see you monday leggings, sweater&bag-goodwill, leather jacket-ebay, boots&scarf-etsy, collar-fitchbace
all secondhand cept leggings and collar

i thought it'd be perfect.  i thought you'd be happier than ever.  i didn't realize my faerie powers didn't work indefinitely.  that was the moment my feet hit the dirt and i realized i was like everyone else.  forever reading my way back to something that may no longer exist.  unsure of reality.  but the street lights and the echoing of the cars in the tunnels reminded me of something.  something buried deep in the catacombs of my brain...

the sun, moon, stars.  it's like their memory was written in braille on my backbone.  they always comforted me.  no matter how desolate things became.  to no longer see them now there may lie a true tragedy.

real loneliness digs deep in your flesh.  makes your lungs ache as they take in the next breath.  i sat quietly and watched him relive his tale... it was the hardest thing i've done.  he says he never felt lonelier in his entire life... than when he was in her presence.

wow...  when your blog starts sounding like the beginning of a sci-fi novel

wearing vintage top/dress-little raisin vintage, ollld leather jacket-ebay, olllld socks-sockdreams, boots-retrovintage123, sunnies-cobrashop, collar worn as boot strap-fitchbace, bag-goodwill

it's funny how as a blogger i feel like i don't follow the common sentiment of being apologetic for not posting, but the truth is i do.  but then i think... really... who cares?  i don't think anyone does...

so here i am taking a walk...

anyways i made a bad ass frida patch for this messenger but somehow didn't get a good closeup of it.  i don't know. i'm pretty dumb about the picture thing.  oh well here is an instagram piccie of it.  i wanna do some diys here on da bloggy but it feels strange stopping and taking pix whilst in the middle of creating.  just kinda weird.  like stopping in the middle of the street to take outfit shots... i guess i could get used to it hahaha

hope everyone is having a great holiday season.  i love this time of year.  no matter what may be going on in my life.  it's fun walking around the brisk air, the lights, the hot beverages and taking hours in a bookstore trying to figure out what my loved ones might want... then i realize it's prolly not at the bookstore or thriftstore at all.  but i still walk out with something...
