Fashion and Olive Oil?




So can I please just say that I found out that Diesel- yes Diesel- Is selling wine and olive oil now? I mean...c'mon you make enough money off of your clothes!

Tell me what you think: here's the link: http://www.nylonmag.com/?section=article&parid=3611
Marc Jacobs is life as we all know :] and his runway looks are to die for! Fushia lips and big bows make these models look like youth






I think with fall comes awesome fashion so don't be afraid to get out there and be confident! I'm sick of everybody complaining about their bodies- their legs aren't long enough, their arms are chubby, their face is too small- you know what? At least you have what you got! some people aren't fortunate enough to have legs and arms you get me?

Have fun!

When I run in the dark...

It is officially fall. Is it just me or does anybody feel like fall is refreshing? When the cool air hits your face and you can start wearing layers to keep you warm.

...But sometime I miss how things used to be. Like Autumn at Juniata with friends and Halloween in high school. When you were a little too old to be trick-or-treating but not TOO old haha. I miss having a tight group of friends and now all i have is Lauren and a few that I'm making at Kean. I just wanna go back there. Somewhere only we know.

"And when the fires came,
The smell of cinders and rain
Perfumed almost everything.
We laughed and laughed and laughed
And in the golden blue
Crying took me to the darkest place,
And you have set fire to my heart."



Natasha Khan your lyrics are nostolgic.

Not to mention she has incredible style too!

Domestic Apparel

Yeah so you can say that I'm completely obsessed with two things in my life right now:

My navy blue american apparel body suit that flatters me oh so nicely...
oh yeah AND Leigh Lezark.
I've had an unhealthy obssession with her since Junior year of highschool so its been a good 4 years. I mean- whats not to be obssessed with?

She is an awesome DJ




She is gorgeous




Her hair is awesome




She's stylish




and mysterious.




I want to run into her in person one day...I don't know what I'd do actually.

...probably faint.

Made an extra 60 bucks for the wallet today babysitting which consists of dino nuggets, diet coke, playing video games, and reading bedtime stories.


Made two solid best friend figures at school and they're both in my drawing class. They're rad as hell. Basically my life at Kean right now.

Golden Rocks

As Beirut once said, In my good times there were always golden rocks to throw. It's my good time and things are goin.

I've been consumed with starting at a new school (ended up transferring to Kean Univeristy as an Art major!) Adjusting but I miss Pennsylvania. But I love New Jersey hehe

So Flip out ladies! Anna Sui presented a runway show at this latest fashion week where the models actually moved around to pose! She had them very Marsha Brady themed with 70s haircuts middle parts and bang. The pose they did was a hair flip here are the instruction (courtesy of Nylon Magazine 2009)
Here's how it works:

1. Put on some music, preferably The White Stripes, The Kills, or The Brady Bunch Family Album. Face the camera (or your friends) with a slight smile.

2. Step forward, hard, while keeping your body upright.

3. Smile even bigger, as if you're a '60s television star, while pivoting quickly on your front foot.

4. Whoosh around so your hair literally whips through the air.

5. Keep on walking





And Music: Jane Bang check her out!

summer accents

Notes 10.08pm Maplewood NJ

packed bags are moved to a car and no tears are shed. An overstayed welcome is what it feels like. i'm happy it's just my family now. a dog's nails tap gently on worn hardwood floors. Creeking when weight's applied. Quand serai-t-j'à l'aise avec ma vie ? Je me sens comme j'attends quelque chose pour arriver. I'm waiting oh so patiently.

Summery pics now i love big floral prints- reminds me of the 90s but more classy. Gold shorts- I think so :] got them from express and got the top from H&M
oh yeah and i finally got me a tube of nude colored lipstick by revlon and it works like a gem :]

Notes 1.50pm East Meadow Long Island

Remains of a crumbling staircase intrude the cookie-cutter perfect of a Long Island backyard. Although someone might think of it as an eye-soar, it retains it's once pristine inner beauty beyond the dusty foundation. Plants show their acceptance by gently embracing the cement. As I lift a diet coke can to my nude painted lips, condensation drips down my fingers making my skin chill. Summer is approaching its 9 month slumber.


Finally got around to taking pictures of that grey mod dress and grey boots that I got recently. I hope you like them- and feel free to leave suggestions!

The vastness of the sky

Notes. 6.16 pm NJ

My freckles, like stars in space, multiply and shine even through my dark darkest skin. But my soul- it fails to accomplish such aspirations. It likes to stick within its comfort zone. Trying to convince itself that its not there to begin with. Kind of like a bug in a park- knowing its part of something big but still has little significance.



So, I'm not going back to Juniata this fall. I hate second-guessing myself. I had a change of heart and tried to convince my parents to let me go back. They told me in january I could if things go well. So, I'm stuck in Jersey and I am disappointed in my decisions lately.

I just don't know if this is only happening to me- or is it happening to everyone my age? I need a change. Shit I'm gonna be 21 in a few months. I need something really miraculous to happen to me soon. Take away this artificial-ness.

I need something real.

Bought some classic Ralph Lauren Sweaters yesterday to get ready for the fall. Lip colors range from plum to pale or nude. I think I'm going to let my hair grow out really long and curly. Maybe add a some color to it. Any thoughts? more blonde?
