in one day, i had two separate people (professors, no less!) called me some variation of “-licious”: my photography professor told me this outfit was delicious:
only minutes later, another professor told me i had gone and gotten “all funkylicious on her!”
i had a third professor tell me that my eyes look tired, but that’s beside the point…
want to hear a funny story about these tights?
really cute, right? they’re Betsey Johnson; a fashion genius, in my opinion (the woman has no fear).
i got them at TJMaxx (YAY great deals!!). i put them on this particular day for the first time and they split directly across the crotch. even better? every time i touched the tights to readjust them, they tore.
i took them back, so they are no longer in my possession.
things are going well!
i cry almost daily about missing my long hair (not really…but, kinda); i find myself looking longingly at old photos, cringing when i think of how long it will take to grow back.
so i wear hats most of the time now.
i’m on the hunt for a perfect leather (but really, pleather) jacket for the fall. i’m terribly picky, so i’ve found a few that just nearly make the cut…but i’m still searching.
on a side note: did you know that “Members Only” went of out business?? news to me.
in the meantime, i’ll just get as much use out of my pleather vest as possible:
new dress from Forever 21. tights done by yours truly. boots from London…but i cut them.
they used to be awkwardly tall and i much prefer ankle boots. they were cheap so i didn’t feel badly about it. ![]()
please take note of my very exciting new spiderman watch! it displays the date as well as the time and doubles as a stamp.
discovered this new (?) store in the Burlington Square Mall the other day that has a lot of urban chic clothing.
found this on the sale rack and was so excited about all of the potential it held!
so excited, in fact, that i promptly held an outdoor photoshoot!
later that evening, i took the tights and the boots away and wore a plaid shirt with pumps.
it was a super easy transition, and those are the types of garments that i looooveee.
one final note: my senior sem professor recommended a site to me that i’ve become a little hooked on.
Spezify
it’s a search engine, but the format focuses primarily on photos and videos.
i’ve found some incredible flickr accounts through it, and i’d like to share a few of those with you here.
for now, here was my favorite from yesterday:

if you happen to spot the perfect p/leather jacket around, let me know!
love always,
