I wish Jacksonville would fall off the face of the earth




Tee and cardigan, American Apparel. Shorts, The Gap. Faux croc belt and loafers, vintage. Watch, Urban Outfitters. Glasses, Brooks Brothers.

I wore this out running errands yesterday and then I was too lazy to change before going out so I wore it out to a bar, too haha. I'm really starting to hate Jacksonville. It is seriously a quagmire of conservatism and egregious fashion sense. It's so annoying to go out and never EVER see one person that is remotely well dressed much less stylish and unique. Ughh, woe is me. I guess there are worse things in the world. On another note, I just found out that one of my friends from college got assigned to a client here in Jax for two weeks! So that should be fun. Also, I'm doing brunch with another friend from high school *gasp* on sunday! So I do have a few things to look forward to!

I've seriously been trying to get in shape because summer is just around the corner and I have some seriously cute and seriously short vintage board shorts that I am DYING to wear to some beach/pool party or something. However, they won't be seriously cute on me if I look like a bloated pubescent 14 year old with man boobs. My regimen thus far has been starvation and running everyday. I don't think it is working quick enough so I'm going to have to start going to the gym and using those weird things called weights and a few other torture devices. Hopefully this will pay off and I'll look sexual in time for summer parties. We shall see!

On second thought, I have no friends so I don't know who is going to be hosting these amazing parties I'm imagining in my head. Hopefully, I can make a trip to nyc or something. That would be ideal.

Anyways, I hope you guys all have a wonderful weekend!

Bye LOVES!

My first boot outfit!




Glasses, Brooks Brothers. Scarf, vintage. Half-zip sweater, The Gap. Bomber, Zara. Jeans, Levi's. Boots, thrifted!

So this was my first time wearing the new boots. It was freezing out for Florida standards so I had to do some serious layering. I loved the boots though! They're so comfortable and they're lined with fleece so they kept my cankles warm. I thought ppl would be gawking at me but no one really seemed to notice. I suppose everyone was just wasted, haha. I wish we still had another month of cold weather so I could continue to play with my new purchase, but unfortunately, it's already like beach weather here. I worked at Urban today for the first time in like 3 weeks and all of the girls were like sunburnt and in bikini's. Ughhhh I HATE florida.

Oh AND I got my new glasses! I'm seriously in LOVE with them!! Here are a few close-ups:





They're actually sunglasses but I had prescription lenses put in them. I am obsesseddddd! I've never been so happy with a pair of frames in my life.

Ok, well I'm exhausted and need to get to bed. I am turning into such an old man. All of my friends are out at some florescent day-glo party, meanwhile, I'm sipping "sleepy time" tea whilst cuddled up in bed with my laptop haha. Additionally, I clearly don't own any day-glo so that is my excuse for not showing, haha.

bye bitches :)

Look What I Bought.... BOOTS







So yesterday I went to brunch and then went drunk shopping, haha. We went to the mall first and I didn't really find anything so we decided to go thrifting before dinner and I realllllly lucked out! I've been looking for boots like this since before fall and I've never been able to find any that were my size, price range, the style I wanted, etc.. When I first saw these yesterday I wasn't so sure if they were exactly what I wanted but then I looked at the price and they were only $4. Clearly, not buying them would have been a mistake. Now that I have them I have no clue what to wear them with? Leave me suggestions, please please PRETTY PLEASE!!

In other news, I was featured in the Global Fashion section of the March 2009 issue of the online fashion magazine N.E.E.T.

I think they cropped my thunder thighs into beautiful Snejana thighs. Oh the joys of cropping, haha.

Bye LOVERS :)

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 :)
