I almost wore this today...


Plaid short sleeve button down, bow-tie, loafers, and bag, all vintage. Shorts from the Gap.

So I woke up this morning expecting it to be hot out (just like yesterday) and pick out this dashing little number. I was greatly disheartened when I walked out and froze my little stumpy legs off. I immediately ran back inside and bundled up...thus ruining my lovely outfit :(


J.Crew Cardigan, Target Scarf.

I hate Florida weather!

EDIT: Here's a close up of the tie/shirt. I bought the tie at the Hell's Kitchen flea market when I was in New York this summer. I love how it's so skinny and kind of silvery... it makes it speical, I think!

I need this...



I need to stop being such a disaster before I go to medical school. I feel that this book would help me learn the ways of gentlemanly behavior. I'm pretty sure being a drunk circus clown isn't listed in the book lol. Oh geez...

happy sunday lovers

Look what I bought...




So I went thrifting yesterday with some of my lovers from Urban and I bought these two ties! I love the super skinny paisley tie because it has a very large graphic print and it's such a thin tie. I think the large paisley mixes nicely with the smaller plaid on the shirt.

Now, this other tie is quite a piece of work lol. I'm not really sure when or where I'll wear it but after I saw it I just had to have it in my collection. It kind of reminds me of something an old woman would wear... or a clown. Who knows hopefully I'll find something to wear it to. I'm not really sure if I like it with this shirt but I figured the thing was so ridiculous it didn't really matter what I wore it with haha.

In other news, I realized that my Mickey Avalon outfit was not very practical as I would probably die of a heat stroke if I wore that thing. Then again I've never been very practical when it comes to picking out clothing... like when I insisted on wearing a turtle neck and cardigan to my third grade field trip to Sea World. I sweated the entire time but I totally loved all the pictures haha. I think I'm going to just wear a grungy slouch t-shirt with skinny jeans and vans. We'll see.

Scarf Special






I'm just posting about the scarf I wore out to karaoke a few nights ago. I took some pictures while I was out in my yard the other day that I thought they really highlighted all the things I love about the scarf, in particular. I bought it a few months ago at the thrift store. I'd like to think it used to belong to some old lady who bought it on a south american hiking expedition, but sadly, I'm sure the story behind it isn't that exciting. Regardless, I still love the coloring and how the pattern looks slightly native american or something (I am 1/8 cherokee Indian, I would know haha).

Sorry I haven't really had any super exciting outfits to post on. I haven't been doing anything except working lately. However, Lauren is coming next week so expect tons of exciting new posts!

laterrrr

What I wore to work... werk





Here I'm wearing a vintage tartan button up, Levi's 511 Alpine jeans, gold watch, and classic lace-up vans. My bag is from American Apparel.

I don't know why I decided to post on this particular outfit... I guess I just like it a lot. I feel very 80's collegiate... and I guess I like that haha. This is the most comfortable shirt ever, especially when I leave it untucked. I loveee it.

Ugh, I'm exhausted from going out last night and then working all day. I need to sleeeeep bc I have a super long shift tomorrow (barf).

bye bitches

Okie Dokie Karaoke



I wore this oversized gray t-shirt, maroon cardigan with gold buttons, multicolor scarf, braided belt, and loafers, all vintage along with my Levi's. The Levi's hadn't been washed in like a week so they were super baggy and made me look like I was wearing parachute pants or something (vomit). I would have had more fun were it not for two select losers that were in attendance. Ugh, my cousin is usually my partner in aural crime, however, due to the presence of said losers she didn't want to sing. However, I'm already practicing for next week. I will be singing with or without her. Prepare Jacksonville.

Sexual Seduction NYE (and the day after)












Ok, so we took over 70 pictures while Lauren was visiting so I'm only posting a few and I still feel like it's too many (haha). I had so much fun while lauren was visiting and I wish she could move in with me! But alas, I'm moving off to another busted location for medical school and she's moving to new york to be as fabulous as possible! She was only able to stay for two days but we had a blast. All of the pictures are from NYE except for the last one, which was from the day after.

Lauren looked so amazing the entire time she was visiting. I could barely even pay attention to what we were doing because I was too busy salivating over her insane fashion sense! On new years eve we went to the masquerade ball at Square One and we had an amazing time drinking our little hearts out, dancing up a storm, and scoping out the hotties haha. The next night we went to a different club and had an equal amount of fun!

On NYE lauren wore a vintage mink coat, YSL ankle boots (I can't breathe when I look at them), Chanel bag, and I'm not sure about her dress, but isn't it GORGEOUS?! Lauren is the most fashionable person on earth! She's coming for the Mickey Avalon concert, expect another photoshoot!

On NYE I wore my blue velvet blazer, black bow-tie, gray sweater, striped button up, and oxfords (all vintage) along with my Levi's and masquerade mask! Lauren and I met like... the Steven Miesel of Jacksonville who kept taking pictures of our feet... we loved it!

The last photo was taken the day after NYE. I'm wearing a vintage corduroy blazer (with elbow patches!), a childrens uniform shirt from Kohl's (haha), Burberry scarf (that a very sexy lady gave me), and an Alexander Olch tie (xmas gift from Lauren!).

Currently, I am slightly inebriated so I don't know if this all makes sense but I will come back when I'm sober and check it (haha)

bye sex machines

EDIT: The tie was Alexander Olch... IDK where I came up with Herkovitch... maybe it's because I love Russia so much... who knows? I'll do a separate post on this tie at a later date.
