$up,
I got this dress at a UNIF sample sale on the 14th of December. It was a couple of days after I got home from London, so i was a little bit jet lagged and it was sooo hot. I was dying. I went with my friends Kyla and Nick and it was actually really fun, besides being sick and tired from the jet lag. The UNIF sample sale was like a dream. That sounds so cheesy, but all the clothing was so pretty, and I never thought I would see it all in person. There is something special about seeing clothing in person after you have only seen them online. They had a lot of stuff that they are currently selling which was really cool. I didn't bring a whole lot of money, so I didn't walk away with much, but I got this dress, the Goner heels and some shorts for 5 bucks. I hope I get to go to another one soon, because it was a lot of fun. They should come to London and have a sample sale.

Tonight is New Years Eve! I'm going to a rave, which is so weird because I thought I was done with those for the rest of my life. It sounded like something funny to do though. It's a lot better then saying in my home town and going to some lame party. I think it will star 2014 in a more progressive way, leaving the past behind me. I hope you all have a wonderful New Years, and I hope you follow through with your resolutions!

$up,
I went to a Lazy Oaf sample sale over the weekend where I scored this awesome top (among other things). I always saw this top on nastygal or the lazy oaf website, and I thought it was cute, but not something I would ever own. It might have been the price that I couldn't rap my head around. I got this one for ten pounds. Thats why I love sample sales, you get really awesome clothing that is really good quality (usually) for a really good price. I got some other shirts and a really wonderful dress, which I later spilled chocolate on... -__- ... Other than that one exciting event, this weekend was filled with work. The term is almost over (thank god) but I still got some things that I need to do. Wish me luck!

$up lovelies,
Over the weekend I did a shoot with a girl named Rachel. She is living in my halls and she is from New York. She is only here for the semester, but she is super nice and super talented. We went to this laundry mat just down the road from us. It was kind of a dark dingy day which showed up in a sort of magical way in the photos. I really like the way they came out, they look very raw.

These glasses are another pair from Giant Vintage Sunglasses. I absolutely love the way they look. They are modeled after the Miumiu Glasses, but they are super affordable and comfortable. I am so happy to add them to my glasses collection. The shirt and top I got at Sun Thrift but at different times. That is one thing I really miss about being back in LA is my many trips to Sun Thrift. The shoes I got at Wasteland in my last trip up to oakland. I miss my Oakland friends a great deal, I am really happy that I was able to take that trip up there. This is the last time I am going to be able to wear my hair like this, because this weekend I am getting it cut. I don't know exactly how short because it isn't up to me (I got picked to be in a hair show), but it's going to be fun and exciting.



Lately I have been obsessed with mood rings, so I decided to only wear mood rings. I really like the look of them because they are always changing colors, but they are never the same color. I think it's my body's way of saying, "hey, your really confused!" Not to say I am depressed of anything, but just being away from home and I guess not fully on my own two feet yet, I have had so many mixed emotions. It's weird to feel so many different, conflicting things all at one time. I know things will get better of course, but for the time being, it's fun to have something like this.

Sup,
Today was my first day at Uni. I don't think I had really high expectations, because I was having a lot of trouble getting pumped up to start my course. I didn't really have fun the first day, it was disappointing really. I arrived to my first orientation type meeting and there were a lot of different kinds of fashion students there. Some of them seemed really cool, but others just seemed like the type of fashion students you hear about, rich and bitchy. I almost feel like there were less people that had their own personal style which I was pretty bummed about. I met someone that was pretty cool though.

When we set off into smaller groups I met everyone in my course, and I remember just thinking "Where do I belong in this course." I am so different from everyone else, not just by appearance but the things that I am in to. It actually made me feel really upset. I love being different, and I love to stand out, but sometimes you just want someone to get you. I know it was only the first day and it's stupid to think that your going to automatically have friends on the first day of class, but I guess I am just super out of my element. I know things will get better, and I will eventually find my crowd, but it's frustrating that it isn't instantaneously. ugh, life.

These glasses were part of my care package from Giant Vintage Sunglasses, aren't they awesome? I figured it would go well with this skirt. I think the jacket really ties it all together. I got this jacket a while back at the Rose Bowl Flea Market. Thats something I really miss about LA. I will definitely be making a stop down there when I come back for winter break. I topped off the whole outfit with my Ego and Green platform sandals. I fell a couple of times today wearing these shoes. I swear the cobble stone roads are going to be the death of me.
