baby blue

confess,





your kiss still knocks me off my legs
first time I saw you





like a punch right through my chest







and I'll will forever, for you'll forever be
my one true broken heart

Despite the fact that I neglect this blog, the last post was my hundredth post. weee!



I raise a glass of egg nog in honor of this occasion.

And maybe I'll try to update more, just because I can. Other motivations:
a) for moments such as this, when I should be cramming for a midterm, but need something else to do that has a tangible goal.
b) to keep myself thinking about what I'm wearing, so that I don't leave the house looking like a tool.

So here's an outfit post. Anything with animal prints has me getting my greedy hands all over it, and these rabbits were too cute to resist. Plus, I was in a wildly consumer-y mood and everything I saw that day that I liked, I had to buy.



I am smug. Doncha wish you had bunnies on your sweater?

morning



Call me superficial if you want.
But sometimes, it really does help to have a pair of kick-ass shoes on your feet.
When doing anything seems like an effort, having something solid to step on is one small comfort. When leaving the house in the morning is something you have to psych yourself up for, you need a ritual. And six buckles and a zipper is something that I can do.
I can do it.

I'm okay





Take pictures with an increasingly shitty camera.
Listen to Lazy Eye by the Silversun Pickups on repeat.
Try not to think too much.

It's the time of year when I just want to follow my mammal instincts and burrow in the warmest things possible.
The more fur or wool, the better. I have an addiction to wool, actually. I just can't stop buying nice knit things - coats, scarves, gloves, sweaters, even skirts.
My theory is that part of me is still a little kid who wants to run around all day pretending she's a wild and ferocious animal.
Rarrr.
Aren't those Sam Edelman boots crazy awesome?

pack it up



yup. all I'm going to say is that it is the time of year when the fact that I need a cool backpack has become more evident than usual. So this morning I had my shreddies, bummed around, did some research and made this set, went to the library, and then went straight to Exhibit on Main St, bought the Herschel "Pop Quiz" (somewhat like the black one here) and went straight back home. Sometimes I shop like a guy.

decisions part deux



I changed my mind. The Fluevog Alli Boot is what I'm getting for fall.
Tried them on today and they are killer.
