desperately seeking something other than the now generic 'blogger-wear'. call to arms (or clothes?) for folks to inspire me. :)
been in a bit of a rut with studying for a major exam (a DOOZY, i assure you) and its associated weariness, but took a few minutes to snap these this morning. now trying to evade a cold.

an unusual option

i gotta back off the brown...but it's so good.

sneakers. ACTUAL sneakers. i bought these shoes about 6 years ago during an 'I WILL BE COMFORTABLE' phase when all the girls were wearing 'cute flats' and skinny jeans (hm, not much change). this is the first time i'm wearing them. madness.

working on work and discipline this week. stupid skin went into remission; trying to determine if i have some sort of actual acne or if it's just the oils from my hair causing the breakouts. maybe i should finally get on birth control again (it made me absolute insane but maybe it'll be worth it?).

jacket: h&m
cardigan: h&m

glorious greens

hahahaha. great debate guys. my friend has decided to compromise by stating that they are 'brazilian jeans' and/or jeggings (which i'm against as they're NOT jeans but w/e).
so we'll just have to see. THANKS A LOT FOR THE FEEDBACK!

nothing going on.
at all.
oh, i think i found my first forehead wrinkle. O_O. trying not to have any expression. ever.

dress: gap
shirt: three dots
boots: frye

so how goes it, dear friends?

that jacket again

Still debating whether or not these qualify as 'pants'. I'm sort of against leggings, just because I don't think that if you're wearing longjohns and they happen to have some wicked awesome designer name on them, it somehow qualifies them as 'cool'. they're still longjohns. and they don't look very good on most people (i omitted the back shots on purpose).
HOWEVER, if your leggings have pockets and a zipper, then i think they're wholly acceptable. because then they're pants. they just happen to be very tight. :)

sweater: 3 dots
pants: zara
shoes: schmoove
scarf: dunno...second hand maybe?
bag: bottega veneta. note that it's the same size as my torso...

reincarnate

yikes. lines.

pardon the hair craze. was trying to contain the beast and keep it out of my face. mission accomplished? yes. cute? mreh. wore this dress about 6 months ago and i swear it fit me differently.

i need more of these waist belts. belts in general, in fact.
wore this to school. i think i got hit on/insulted by a nigerian. something about men not looking at my face on the street. hump day means more studying. yay kinda.
...ok, end stream of consciousness :)

no clue what i was on about.

love the drape of this jacket. it's cotton but has a velvety texture, which i've always loved in clothes. sometimes i catch myself rubbing it against my skin. oh, that's a tube of burt's bees in my pocket. but i am still happy to see you :). still winding down from the weekend. my hair looks like a bird nest and got 2 chapters to catch up on reading for class. fingers crossed for an important email this week.

at ma's

weird huh

hung out with mom and sister. haven't seen either of them in ages. big sis getting more and more pregnant as the days go by. :)
my mom twisted half my head with a bunch of mineral oil and i did the other side with olive oil. her side looks way better today...
realized these weren't the best shots of this dress, but the sun went down and the winds picked up and it was suddenly too bloody cold to really take good shots.

some dream items i've been praying for while the cool weather persists:
