bloomers

I bought my first and only Lacoste polo shirt when I was maybe 11 or 12 years old. How I scoured up enough money to buy $75 pieces of fabric stitched together by myself I may never know, but I did and I was darn tootin' proud of it. I wore it once. One single time. And I decided to wear it again the other day.

Again, sorry for the terrible posting. I'm sick right now, and I got back from a school trip in which I jumped off a telephone pole and was dropped 50 feet in a harness. I can't stop telling everyone, I was so proud of myself. For the longest time my biggest fear was overpasses. And now.. 50 FEET!


Sorry for my feet bulging out of these shoes. They don't look as grotesque as this in person. I'll show better pictures of these shoes later, I love them.

P.S. My brain couldn't think of a title. Let's take the easy way out today.

unhealthily large portions

6:15 pm: I'm dashing to and from a family party to write this post. I will have to write in short intervals so my family doesn't suspect anything (although when they all read this, my secret will be out.)

6:27 pm: My dad is talking about how my dog killed a squirrel. For the fortieth time.

6:31 pm: The bread is being served. Don't expect me back for a while.

6:35 pm: Oh my God scratch that it's being toasted.

7:17 pm: Dinner is being eaten. Discussing the best burgers, The Cheesecake Factory, and my cousin's insatiable cravings for a guitar and a cast-iron skillet.

7:43 pm: I'm forgetting that this is an outfit post and I still have to upload pictures.

7:58 pm: I am eating Nilla wafers for dessert, adults talking about True Blood, Mad Men. IT'S ALL THEY EVER TALK ABOUT.

8:34 pm: Cracking out Apples to Apples. It's about time.

9:27 pm: Finished Apples to Apples. My grandmother's boyfriend wins on his first time playing.

9:31 pm: Everyone has left. Now let me upload my pictures!

P.S. Whatever could I be referring to in my title? A certain restaurant I mention in this post? Ho hum...hmm..

really really really sorry

I really liked the days when I thought four days was a long time not to post. I haven't posted in 16 days. That's disgusting. I have no valid excuse, other than a) school starting and b) no outfits since school has started. I couldn't let myself go any longer without posting. I wore this sometime last week, and I can't lie, these were not actually the shoes I wore. They feel like I'm walking on sharp pebbles while the pebbles are pinching my toes. But I just loved the pink so much more.

The last Feathers item, this 60's ruffley terrific pockety dress that I LOVE. I love it with the white tights, and I love the white tights with the red shoes. And who doesn't like wearing a bib on their dress?

I loved going out today and seeing how many people were mesmerized at the amount of sequins that could possibly be fit on this shirt. It was mostly small girls, whose eyes would literally not move off their chosen section of sparkly reflections. It was very funny to watch. This was another item from Feathers- I absolutely love it. Nothing much more to say.

keeping things weird

I feel kind of pathetic because I feel like all I talk about on this blog is the weather. It's really really hot. But it was actually even hotter in Austin, where I was last week. It was dreadful. The heat, I mean. Austin itself is terrific. Especially the greatest place on earth, Disneyland Feathers Vintage. So good. I bought three things, one of which is this red gingham romper. The others will be showcased later on...

and it was all yellow

I don't know why I love this outfit so much, I think it's just the color yellow. I really really like yellow. I don't much like the word- yelllooww. But the color just perks a person up.

aout

So much fun I'm having trying out all these different shoes. These green ones are wicked. I wore this a few days ago, but only photographed it a few days ago. I'm bad at this. I cannot believe it's August already. Oy vey.
