SKYLER

I’m loving the whole hair-chalking trend in a major way. Check out Skyler’s super sweet version! She posted a pic on Facebook and I liked it so much she agreed to let me take a few photos for the blog. Thanks, darlin’!

And then I proceeded to accidentally lock us out of the building where we had left all our things, including my phone. If you know me and my phone, then you understand my stress of not having it on my person AT ALL TIMES!!! (‘cuz I might miss something really important or Instagram or whatever. #addict). Anyway, we got rescued eventually, I got my phone back and three weeks later, here are the photos of Skyler and her pretty hair.

you. are. welcome.

hugs + kisses,

PARIS FAIR BUILDING

This was the morning I noticed it wasn’t ridiculously cold out. Like, you could actually feel the warmth of the sun. How very lovely.

New and Good:

I got new-to-me boots and I like them very much. I’ve been wanting to replace my favorite cream Aldo boots since I’ve worn them to death and then I found these ones (almost identical) on Darling Boutique! Thanks, Rachel! Also, excited about the Jason Wu for Target top that I found on clearance. So much so, I don’t even care that it’s two sizes too big. Oh and you might have noticed the sideshave. That’s new too. Feeling the Annie Lennox vibe and transitioning into summer hairz….

Top: Jason Wu for Target / Shorts: Bik Bok / Tights: Walmart undisclosed location / Boots: Gloria Vanderbilt / and I betcha didn’t know I’m wearing a bodysuit. Leftovers from Halloween, 2009.

Thanks for playing!

Couchella 2012: Florence and the Machine

I don’t go to music festivals in California. Instead, I sit on my couch and watch the happenings via YouTube like a cool kid. Caught the tail end of the F&TM set and now I’m geeking out over the blue bedazzled velour bat-winged one-piece getup. Soooo much amazingness in one being. I love this woman!

I discovered too late that Florence and the Machine is playing Edgefield this summer. It was sold out before I even knew they were coming to town, boo. If anyone has a couple extra tix to spare, my birthday’s in June. #justsayin’

Night!

OBSESSED: UNICORN HAIRZ

I take my obsessions seriously. When I love something, I really LOVE it. Like, the way that big monster from Looney Tunes loved Bugs Bunny (“I’m going to hug him and squeeze him and name him George!”) ‘Cause really, there’s no sense in half-assing it. If you’re crazy about something, than own it. #lifelessonnumber465 #yourewelcome

That said, let me tell you about a little thing I’m currently OBSESSED with called UNICORN HAIR! or ombre hair or dip-dye hair and chalking, whatever means you need to get the lovely pastel magic seen below. The trend has been around for awhile and shows no signs of calling it quits. Which means YAY FOR ME and anyone else in love with this look!

All this talk of magical hair power has me considering dying mine multiple colors again like I had it last summer and the summer before that and than all the way back to junior high when I used Kool-Aid to dye it. Which, by the way, has more permanent results than you’d think…#oops.

Gaze to your heart’s content:

K, going to bed now. I had plans of catching up on Gossip Girl and doing zero amounts of homework ‘cuz it’s my “SPRING BREAK, WHOOOO!” but I actually want to sleep more than I want to catch up on the over-the-top but oh-so-glamourous-n-fabulous fictional lives of Upper Eastsiders.

x+o,
