Hiatus Over (hopefully!)




Vintage plaid shirt. Old Navy cable knit sweater. Levi's 511 Skinny jeans. Vintage Bass loafers. Urban Outfitters watch.

So after a nearly month long hiatus I have finally forced myself to continue with my blog. It's been so hard to update lately because of my new job and volunteering. However, I realized that if I can't maintain two jobs, volunteer, stick to my workout regime, and update my clown blog then how am I ever going to make it through the hell that is med school? I won't! So in an effort to prove to myself that I can juggle 10,000 obligations at once and still keep my sanity I am going to (try) to update my blog at least once or twice a week.

Anyways...

I wore this out the other day to run some errands around town which include, paying a speeding ticket (grr), getting a new driver's license, setting up a new bank account, and going to an appointment with my eye doctor. Nothing too exciting. However, I am getting new glasses. Yay for being able to see! Hopefully they'll be done sometime next week and I'll have something exciting to post on. Oh and I just remembered that I found a Lanvin shirt at the thrift store the other day for $2... yes $2, as in 8 quarters, as in 20 dimes, as in 40 nickels, as in 200 pennies... 200 pennies for Lanvin! The thrift god's were smiling upon my soul that day. I'll update with pictures soon.

I've really missed all of you guys! Thank you so much for all the nice comments and e-mails. They really make my day :)

Oh and here's a picture of my busted driver's license, haha...

life = over


Posing like my grandmother, Coco

So I thought that not having to work all week would mean that I was going to be a blogging machine but unfortunately it actually meant that I would continue to contribute to my impending liver cirrhosis, haha. So I finally got sick of all the drunk shenanigans and decided to make a new post... until something awful happened! I can't find my camera! I mean the thing is freaking huge... it's not like I take it out to bars with me. Ugh, I'm sure someone just moved it from it's usual location (my room) to somewhere safer. I am now on a mission to find the thing so I can continue to blog.

In other news, I had my first day of volunteering yesterday and I loved it. I am probably the only person under the age of 60 in the children's hospital auxiliary , haha. Regardless, all of the old ladies are really sweet and the kids are super cute so I think I'm going to love it. We had a luncheon yesterday and they asked us what our favorite and least favorite part of volunteering was. I told them my least favorite part was the uniform... no bow-ties allowed! Ugh, I am pissed obviously, but it's about the kids... not me!

Ok, back to my search for the camera! Hopefully, I can update tonight!

On volume and clownery...

So this is the outfit I'm wearing out tonight (tenatively)

Vintage tartan shirt. American Apparel jeans. J.Crew Desert Boots. Vintage Dior belt. UO Watch
This is the tweed coat with the skinny jeans. Love it!



Add vintage tweed coat and Burberry scarf.

However, this is what I'll probably end up wearing since it's not really could enough to wear the tweed haha...


Add Fink cotton pea coat, from UO.

I don't really have much to say about this. I love the contrast of the volume of the tweed coat and super slim jeans (thanks for the idea 00o00). I wish it weren't 9000 degrees outside and I could wear my little coat but alas I live in Florida haha.

I think I'm going to karaoke tonight! Woo hoo yay!

bye guys :)

shenanigans and such...






Denim blazer, belt, oxfords, all vintage. Shorts, Gap. Shirt, American Eagle. Bow-tie, Ben Sherman. Watch, UO.

My mom, my cousin, Panda, and I had outdoor wine and cocktails this evening. I took a few pictures of one of my new blazers. It's denim! I think this will be good for the spring/summer. It's super light weight and very fitted. I know I said I was planning an editorial but that hasn't actually materialized yet, haha. I'm hoping to have something more fun for the other blazer. I'll keep you guys updated.

bye sex muffins :)

The Trials of my Life...



Tweed overcoat, tartan shirt, v-neck sweater, oxfords, braided belt and bowtie, all vintage. Khakis, Obey. Watch, UO

I found this coat a few years ago and even though I practically swim in it I bought it anyways. I loved the huge lapels and extended length double breasted look, and the tweed... oh the tweed!

I gave it to my mom after I bought it and she said she'd take in the waist for me so that it fit better. Two years later I find the thing hanging in her closet unaltered and decided to just bring it home, haha. My mother is a busy woman so I can't really blame her lol. Plus it's not like I really need a coat like this living in Florida. I guess I just saw this and wanted it regardless of wether or not I need it, oh shopping haha.

I thought maybe if it had a belt it would work. Then I thought maybe I could add one of my own belts. This might be kind of weird to take off when I got wherever I was going though haha... who knows? What do you guys think?



Added faux croc belt and grey leather duffel, both vintage.

Oh, and here's a close up of the bow-tie. I bought it at the Hell's Kitchen flea market in New York. Isn't it sexual? Umm, I mean dignified lol

Oh. My. God.

I woke up super early this morning and couldn't sleep. I first went over to Where The Lights End and looked at pages and pages of beautiful humans only to open up Photobooth and realize that I looked like this hot mess...




bahahahaah! I didn't even know my hair was capable of doing that? I'm definitely wearing it like this all day.

Jesus, I seriously need to pull my life together lol.

Oh and for the record, I am wearing a Snuggie... be jealous... I have warm arms... you don't...



I promise I'll post something fashion related next (I got new vintage blazers, I'm dying). I know my precious readers must be getting tired of my shenanigans... sorry lol

bye loves :)

Hey Look...

My senior honors thesis was published today in the Journal of Pediatric Surgery. I'm finally the author of something besides The Daily Bozo haha. I'm so excited because completing all the research, writing the paper, and actually getting it published took over two years. It was definitely the hardest thing I've ever done. I'm such a clown though, I can't believe they actually published it haha...

Ok, enough about boring medical stuff... two things that are making me laugh today...

1. This

2. a video of me in high school... lol

EDIT: I actually put the wrong video of Ja'mie King (my idol lol) here's the one I meant to post...
