he brings out the whiskey in me...

i'm back home finally. happyface. There is nothing better than lying in a bed twice as big as you've been getting used to and possibly getting breakfast in bed in the morning. i revel in the spoiled bratiness that consumes me when i arrive back in the rock. haha. home=good=happy.


soooo i got my haircut and i absolutleyfreakinloveit. i look like a young doe once again.ha.



soo i decided that my style icons this summer are going to be nico from the velvet underground(who also inspired my haircut) and ms. edie sedgwick. it shall be a summer full of leggings, heavy lashes, crazy big earrings, big, boxy, belted blouses(nana's love of alliteration has rubbed off on me apparently)and shaggy bangs. hello?! fabulous.




in other news..i found two new rad musical providers for the ear love. AM and Amy Millan. am has a really chill sound and a manly wistfulness(?) to his voice that i really enjoy. && amy millan is basically in my mind, a female johnny cash(a little watered down on the countryishness though.) the song "skinny boy" is a must hear by the way. i suggest you check them both out. real talent for sure. follow the links on the pictures.








ok well...thats all for tonight..i've been up and about for too long now and my eyes need rest. so until next time.

playing hooky

so today has been an excellent day. i am currently playing hooky. i haven't just stopped to chill in the longest time and staying home and doing absolutely nothing was just what i needed. yay for hooky! being naughty has never been better. :p


godd..i am so flakey today. haha


so i've been watching PR reruns today and it got me all riled up again. daniel voscovic should have won hands down. honestly. the guy is clearly talented his work was just..um, AMAZING. the cohesiveness of his collection was so much stronger than chloe or santinos. even if he didn't win, i'm sure he is going to do great things, i can only hope that someday i can work with him. that would be, needless to say, epic. i mean just look at this.





so i'm going to go do some more nothing now. so until next time.

i put my magic boots, i ride my magic horse

so...aah i haven't had time for anything lately. only gap inc. keeps my company these days it seems. but, at least today is my glorious day off and i can blog, paint a bit(havent in ages it seems), and maybe even misbehave myself a little.;).


anyways... i'm getting my hair cut and it might be a bit drastic...but i probably won't admit it to myself until after the fact. i've been wanting bangs for forever now, ever since devil wears prada. but i saw a picture of nico from the velvet underground and now i NEED them. that lady was/is? fabulous by the way.





oh oh oh! i finally got my Soko cd. and let me tell you, it is absolutely wonderous. i love it. the title of my blog today are lyrics from the song Dandy Cowboys. you should, no you NEED to check her out. so just give the picture a little click dear.






and of course after all that excitment there has to be a tiny mishap. my person, my nana is leaving me for spain for 2 weeks. talk about a buzzkill. however i am sure she will buy me lovely gifts and that is all that matters. haha,just kidding slover.
mostly i just wish i could go with her and look at all the good looking european boys with the accents and the whole tall, dark, and handsome bit. but alas, i am stuck here in the windy city with noone to breathe on the phone with for hours upon end. sadface. at least i can live vicarously through her amazing pictures. :)



i thought this was funny.


so...i'm running out of fuel now and there is some food cooking in the kitchen that is calling my name. so until next time.

bright and shiny

so...new blog. it's going to be full of a plethora of things. My thoughts of course, the occasional existential bullshit, fashion of course, some things i find that are rad, and some crafty business.





ikea has the cutest graphic duvet covers. i suggest you check them out for sure.
