magazine tearouts

So here is the random board in my room where I tack up some of my favorite magazine cutouts.

I'm going shopping today! On Walnut Street in Shadyside of Pittsburgh. Which means I'll be going to American Apparel. (Looove that store). I think I got a whole new love for the store in the past year. Everything is basic but that's the beauty of it because then I can layer! Which I love doing. Which is why sometimes I get frustrated with summer. lol I have been wearing really boring outfits lately.... This is a fun photo though:

hello world!

I haven't posted on here in forever! I miss it. Just a little though. I have been very laaazy! hmmm Well I'm not much into collages anymore... I haven't made one in forever. On the computer that is. And I don't have my collage notebook with me atm. So I'm not sure what I'm going to post here. Outfits maybe? And as usual, I think I've been shopping too much... It's got to stop! or I need to work more.... Here's one image for you of one of my outfits from last week. And lastly, a shoutout to www.adorevintage.proboards38.com and the lovely and amazingly-dressed girls there.

Bicycling.. better than walking, almost as good as horseback riding.. it's a beautiful way to explore a city and a great way to appreciate the countryside.

summer black dress

How to wear a black dress in the summer? Simply, and with a pair of great shoes.

goodness me, penelope tree

How outrageous! but sweet. I was looking at these photos and started thinking about room decorations. haha I'm beginning to wonder how I'll decorate my dorm room in the fall. I thought the bright colors, floral, and interesting shapes are awesome for a room.

Holly Golightly: You know those days when you get the mean reds?
Paul Varjak: The mean reds, you mean like the blues?
Holly Golightly: No. The blues are because you're getting fat and maybe it's been raining too long, you're just sad that's all. The mean reds are horrible. Suddenly you're afraid and you don't know what you're afraid of. Do you ever get that feeling?
Paul Varjak: Sure.
Holly Golightly: Well, when I get it the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany's. Calms me down right away. The quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there. If I could find a real-life place that'd make me feel like Tiffany's, then - then I'd buy some furniture and give the cat a name!


With the humidity and heat waves outside, dainty tunics are a must! In one, you can keep cool and keep those "mean reds" away. Because you know why you're feeling a bit lousy today? You're not wearing a sweet outfit! Something you're totally comfortable in.. you know what looks good on you and what's comfortable!

modesty anyone?

Yes it's possible! You can be modest AND sexy at the same time.. modest and stylish.. modest and stunning. Miss Piggy said, "Beauty is a blessing and a burden. One must celebrate the blessing of being beautiful and yet bear the burden of attracting freaks." Ladies, we have beautiful bodies! It's a blessing but if we show off our boobs, we're going to attract freaks.. Guys who just see us as an object and not as a complete person; who see us just as something that can give them them sexual pleasure and an orgasm. Excuse my bluntness! There are (really it's true) guys out there who respect women and see us not as an object but as a whole person, with a soul, imagination, ideas.. and who want to love us and give us everything. Another reason to be modest is that immodesty twists and perverts reality and the true purpose of our sexuality. Our breasts are not for attracting attention, really they're for giving food to new life, nurturing a baby! Well anyways, I love Kirsten Dunst's style! Isn't she gorgeous?
