mayer hawthorne + crème brûlée earl grey tea

for my next trick, i will hibernate with tea and soul music instead of going to management class.


doesn't my messy ugly apartment look lovely with this filter? i promise my love affair with the 'Melissa' filter on Pixlr-Express will be short lived. isn't it charming how candid i am about my lack of photo editing skills and my reliance on free web-based clients? i hope so.

so. i'm wearing a small men's Mayer Hawthorne concert tee from his recent-ish show at The Opera House (which was amaaaaazing). before i saw him live i was concerned that he always sounded flat on his record, but that must have been a stylistic choice because that muhfucka can sing. most of the rest of what i'm wearing is from Modcloth.

except the shoes which are clearly Jeffrey Campbell. i talked to a girl on the subway last night who was wearing the 99s while i was wearing these. she was super lovely and we bonded over shoe-lust. i should have gotten her digits so i put up a missed connections ad. <3 please email me cute JC girl.
but most importantly THE TEA. this magical tea is from Golden Mint. that link will take you to Yelp were you can read my spectacular review.
this tea requires no milk or sugar. i recommend it for all earl grey fans who want to mix it up a little. you don't even really need a tea ball, the steeped loose tea will just sink to the bottom of the cup.
time to buckle down and do some school work. peace out, interweb.

my beautiful dark twisted fantasy that i had when i was 15 and goth but have totally grown out of by now

how bout that new kanye album? dayum. the album title makes me laugh though. srsly how would you finish a sentence that starts with "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy...."


a)  that i shared with the melodramatic community when i blogged there in 2002
b) that involves James Spader in Secretary telling me to eat four peas while i listen to Lady Venom  by Swollen Members
c) is the title of the new yeezy album OOOH SHE A GOLDDIGGA


baha. no but i really love it.


ANYWAYS


when i go to bed at night, i always think 'damn what a great outfit, too bad i'm sleeping in it and no one will every see it.' well never fucking fear because i am probably one of the few people to consistently take pictures of the clothes i sleep in. of all of the seven deadly sins, sloth is probs on my top three. that's probably not great?


i'm having a love affair with plaid flannel right now. its warm enough for winter and so comfy that i can't bear to take it off before bed. not sure how long this love affair will last but i'm cool with it for the time being. 






maybe one day i'll show you how i wear plaid flannel when i actually leave the house. and maybe i won't.

i didn't promise you a rose garden




i don't actually wear leggings as pants because my ass is phat. i wore this to school today with a long cardigan so as to not make respectable people uncomfortable.

can anyone put an era to this top? i wanna say early 90s. i am in love with the shape of it, even though it is for someone with a smaller rack than me. 

yeah i'm bringing 'rack' back.

rill rill

posted my first lookbook look today. currently waiting for first hype I MEAN BEING SO COOL AND NOT GIVING A SHIT ABOUT ANYTHING.


Here are the outtakes:




if i fail at lookbook i will blame it on my weight and not at all on my obviously excellent sense of style. i wore this shit to the ratatat concert the other night and drunk hipsters in the bathroom complemented me, which is basically the same as getting validation from the internet.  

in serious fashion talk though, those black Forever21 wedges that cost me 30$ are probably the best value for money i've gotten in a long time. you can't even buy ice cream for 30$ anymore. i need 24k gold flakes on that shit.

bitches love my new haircut



So the trend in hair these days seems to be natural, straightish and very long.

Well fuck that. Thick bangs will still be around for awhile, probably. and maybe i just wanted to have a little fun. 

one more year of school before i have to grow up fo reals.

good morning pt. 3 [it's only 2pm shut up]









this is the end of the pictures i took in july so wow maybe i should take some more. maybe wearing an outfit. maybe wearing a bra.


oh anyways this is a pretty good estimate of what i look like when i wake up for reals except in real life, i look more upset, and my face is puffy.

bed is my favourite and i never want to leave. if i could sleep until 2pm and go to bed at 3am  that would be ideal.

also: despite her talk, i bet lady gaga looks something like this in the morning. (okayi'llshutupaboutladygaga)
