New Years

Happy New Years everyone! 2014 is going to be sick, but to honor 2013, I made a collage of all my hair dos this past year.



Music-love me.

Living Life in a Catsuit

Coat/ Glendale Goodwill, Shoes/ Urban Outfitters, Catsuit/ Sunthrift, Sunglasses/ Giant Vintage Sunglasses

$up,
For a long time I have really wanted to get a catsuit. I remember my best friend Sahara let me borrow a black catsuit that she had for halloween. I dressed up as a ghost, but the costume was inconvenient to wear at parties, so I would take it off and just be wearing this really cute catsuit. I have wanted one every since then I suppose. They are kind of hard to find when your a cheep-skate like me. I found this one at Sun Thrift, and I guess it was just pure luck. I find you cant really go into thrift stores with a clear image of something you want, because odds are you are not going to find it, and then you'll be kinda bummed out. The catsuit doesn't really fit properly yet, but I plan on fixing it as soon as my mom sends me my peddle for my sewing machine. Yeah you read that correctly, she sent me my machine without my peddle.. Silly mommy.

Music-Blackbird Blackbird, It's a War. One of my most recent obsessions (check out more of their stuff!).

So I have been having this really uncomfortable thought recently. It is the thought that I am just too different from everyone else. I have been in London for a week today and I haven't really made any friends or seen anyone really who looks like they would want to be friends with me. People are very friendly, they come up to me and talk a little but, but thats as far as it goes. It's just some small talk. I am trying hard to be positive and for the most part I am being pretty positive but some times it ways down on me not knowing anyone. I am not particularly shy, I can really keep a conversation going, but it really only works I think if the other person is putting effort in the conversation. I have never really cared what other people thought of me, but I think some times when your all alone and you don't really have the support of your friends or family, you kind of feel a little bit uncomfortable. It's not that I really care what anyone else is thinking because I really like the way I dress and the way I act, but I guess I am just super bummed that no one likes the same kind of stuff that I like. I think sometimes we just want to fit in instead of standing out, even though I know I would benefit so much more from standing out and being myself than conforming and wishing that I could be myself. There are just some thoughts that run through my head sometimes that are really unsettling like, What if I don't find any friends, or what if I am too weird, or what if no guy ever thinks I am attractive and whats to go out with me? However after I have those thoughts I am like Fuck that! I love who I am, I think I am super friendly, talented, smart and interesting and if I don't find anyone to be friends with or to date it's not a big deal because I like me. One of my favorite bloggers, Lights Drive my Soul, wrote about this a couple of days ago and I swear she read my mind. She put it a lot better then I did, but this is me, and this is the way I write!

New Hair

$up,
I wanted to post a new outfit after I got my hair done a couple of days ago, but there was no one around to take my picture (My mom or my brother usually takes my picture.). I need to get a tripod so I don't have to rely on anyone else... I dyed my hair is pastel purple! I washed it once already so it kind of turned pink, but hey, I love pink. I think thats what I love the most about dying my hair "crazy" colors, the way it fades. It always exciting to me.

My move date is rapidly approaching and my mind is racing with all the things I want to do and all the things that I need to do. I want to tell all my friends here that I am leaving really soon, so we should all hangout a little more. I had a kind of sad thought yesterday. My good friend came back from Greece (She was there for a month) for a couple days before going back up north to her college. We had been friends since freshmen year and she was probably my best and most consistent friend all through high school. I was hanging out with her, and I realized that this is truly the last summer that all my friends from high school will be back home like this... This summer a lot of my friends didn't come back, or they came back for a couple days. Its strange.. Next summer, I know I will not be back for long, maybe a week or so, and I know my friends that came back for like a week will not come back at all. The people that do come back won't have very much in common, because we have been living separate lives for 3 years already. I can already feel a gap and its only been 2 years. I think its an appropriate time for all of us to move on into our adult life, but there is kind of a sad feeling realising that one chapter of your life is ending. However with every end there is a new beginning and I cannot tell you how excited I am for that.


Music-Sublime- Bad fish. I think it's only appropriate to end this chapter with sublime. Any music by Sublime will forever remind me of high school. This song in particular has sentimental value to me.

Who Do You Think You Are?

Turtle neck/ Sun Thrift See Through Top/ Vintage Hand-me-down Pants/ Sun Thrift Shoes/ Jeffrey Campbell

This look was kind of just thrown together. I am aware that none of it matches, but I actually really enjoyed that aspect of it. I wanted to wear this turtle neck that I had cut into a crop top, but I couldn't really find something to go with it. So I guess I just put on things that really didn't match. The pants are my favorite, they kind of fit me awkwardly because I am a little bit to tall for them, but I think that makes them even better. I like thrift clothes because not everything fits as it should, but I think some times it looks better that way. The see through top was my aunts in the 60s. She gave it to my mom, and then my mom gave it to me. I really love the way it looks, but every time I wear it, it makes me look like I am dressed up. I don't think this outfit would really be complete without this shirt though. The shoes I got in high school back when Jeffrey Campbell was big on the Floral Heels (These were my graduation present!). I don't really wear them that often, but I really do love them. They are a bit hard to walk it, but I think it's because the arch in my foot is a little bit higher than most.

I think I might be dying my hair a cool new color today.. It will be a surprise what color!


Music- Lately I have had some trouble thinking of songs to post. I want to post new music because I want this blog to be as current as possible, but as you can probably tell by my posts, I love old music. I think today I am going to post some Spice Girls. The Spice Girls have a soft spot in my heart. They were the first people I saw in concert when I was a young child. I love how they kind of are getting a second wave of popularity with the "hip" crowd. The Spice Girls- Who Do You Think You Are.
