Hippy Much?



Oh my gosh!  I need this bag!!! I'm in love with western/hippie styles this season and this just satisfied my needs!  Good thing I just got a job!  It kind of resembles my shoulder bag that I got from a New York Aldo in December:

Dreaming With A Broken Heart - John Mayer

all images above from modcloth.com
my latest favorites for apartment decor!
1.  Hmm, almost three weeks since my last post? !!! I've been really busy though :( My honors english class just finished reading The Scarlet Letter and we are now writing an essay about Hester starting out as a victim and transforming herself into a heroine.  I finished my outline Wednesday night and brought it in early Thursday morning for her to make comments on (the final was due Friday morning) but when I went to class in the afternoon, she had graded it! Haha, I was shocked but hey, I was proud I got a 96 on it! Now we're doing the works cited (already done) and the intro/conclusion is due Wednesday... ughhh. Anyway, after work yesterday I walked over to Barnes and Noble to meet my mom (my work is in the same plaza as B&N). I had to get another book for my english class to read. She gave us a list and I instantly gravitated towards A Tree Grows in Brooklyn mainly because I ALWAYS see the poster for it in the cafe area of B&N. 

2.  So, about work... I got my first job a few days ago! I now work at DSW! Ahaha. I think I'm going back today to get a pair of Keds.  They're the eyelet ones :D

Mustache Nails and Coco Chanel

Def. finding a tutorial to do this!
yes, of course I had to add Gaga!
pictures from tumblr and weheartit
1.  Bonjour! How is everyone? I'm good, just stressing over a french project on Coco Chanel due tomorrow that I barely started :S.  I have to write everything that I am telling the class in french and I have to write a page I guess about Coco and then a worksheet.  The directions weren't very clear lol.  So, I have like half of her bio thing written.. woops! Anyway, March is almost over! Why am I so excited? WE HAVE NO DAYS OFF IN MARCH! ugh!

2.  The pictures above are just some inspiration... I feel like im turning hippie-ish.  I've always LOVED fringe, feathers, indian wear, and dream catchers so I feel like my summer will be full of that!  Oh, and lace and florals.. naturally! ;) Maybe even a little neon too? I don't know yetttt.  What about you guys?  What are your must-haves for spring/summer?  I also found this song on youtube today called Mouthwash by Kate Nash.. ever heard of it? It's ah-mazing!

B-B-B-Berklee!









Top: H&M (after 2 hours of looking for the store!)
Jeans: AE

1.  So, last saturday, March 5th, the jazz 'A' band at my school took a day trip to Boston to participate in the Berklee Jazz Festival.  Even though we placed 7th out of 16 in our division, it was still an awesome time.  Especially when we got to go shopping around Newberry Street for three hours... which my friends and I just got lost basically the whole time haha.  We were looking for Forever 21 and H&M and everyone that we talked to gave us the wrong directions! So after getting lost for 1 1/2 hrs we finally found H&M which was back in the opposite direction that we passed and a few blocks over -___-. Then, we found a few friends in the Apple store, so we all decided to go back out and look for Forever 21 which was past the convention center where we didn't go and a block over.  Then, my friend Kat and I decided to go back to the convention center after she bought some things from Forever 21 and once we got back, the fire alarm was going off and they had to evacuate the whole center!  So we just walked around to the side and went into the mall for a little while.  It was only a false alarm, some kid pulled the fire alarm *rolls eyes*.  Overall, it was a pretty fantastic day! 

P.S. The first two pictures were taken from the top floor of the convention center!  All photos were taken by me :)

He Won't Go



Shirt: Charlotte Russe
Jeans: American Eagle
Bracelet: Pandora
Eiffel Tower Charm: Kay Jewlers
Peace Sign Necklace: Silpada



1.  So, this is my very first ever actual outfit post! I'm so happy! haha. Yes, I edited the pictures, I like the vintagy look to them, but after I uploaded them they didn't look so good... oh well haha. 

2.  Have any of you guys listened to Adele's new album?! I listened to most of her new songs on YouTube, and my favorite is Rolling In the Deep and He Won't Go.  I'm an avid band geek, so I kind of pick apart every song I listen to and it's a good change to hear actual instruments in songs other than synthesizers.  Like the amazing pounding drums in Rolling in the Deep and the piano in He Won't Go is beautiful. (I have been playing the flute for concert band for 7 years, and I started piano lessons in third grade and after two years and this is the first year that i've played since!  I play for jazz band and I should have never taken a 6 year break -___-).  Is it geeky that i'm talking about band? haha oh well :)

70's couch?! No way!


Spring 2011 RTW Erdem runway photos via vogue.com :)
 1.  For a girl that loves floral patterns and lace, I am in love!  Everything is just so pretty and I would definitly wear all of these pieces.  Though I would probably be called a 70's couch/curtains by my brother-in-law -__-.  Also, the hair is gorgeous!  I love the messy braids, but I can never do it so well with my hair haha.  It's just so thin and soft that braids fall right out.

2.  So I'm on my February vacation right now, but I'll do another post on that ;) Oh, I haven't forgotten about the Gaga portraits, they're just not done yet and I would rather upload them all into one post.  Have a great day!!

personality/style





all photos courtesey of stockholm-streetstyle.com


1.  Since I haven't done any outfit posts or anything, I found these pictures that really describe my personality/style.  Sorry, I haven't posted in a while.  I've just been bogged down with school work and I didn't have any time left for anything else :(

2.  I finished a portrait I did of Lady Gaga and I am working on two more, so expect to see those soon!
