My epitome of cool, stylish, gorgeous, amazing, talented, perfect, smart, and fashionably AMAZING. I love her. I really really love her...all four feet of her.
You know of my intense love of lazy Sundays, but this one, was forced.
I've been so incredibly exhausted/run down. I was nearly falling over yesterday, and almost fell asleep while applying mascara, sitting on my floor - true story. I forced myself to do all of my usual Sunday activities on Saturday, so that I can get some extra shut eye, and just lay around.
After relaxing all day, I've managed to get this intense pressure in my head. I'm resting it out. Maybe it's the weather. It's super gloomy and gives you no reason to get out of your pj's.
Having a lazy day enables me to do one thing, and one thing only: Stalk fashion sites and drool over freshly, newly launched Spring/Summer '09 designer collections. Here are a couple of thoughts from today's thought pattern ...
- I really need to work on some better habits. For example, if I'm absolutely starving, and I just so happen to be craving smores, I will sacrifice the 10 minutes it takes to throw together a veggie quesadilla, and have smores for lunch instead. Not a balanced diet.
- I am intensely intrigued by Alexander Wang, and every last thread of his collections. He undoubtedly designs for the new breed of cool kids. There's two pieces in particular that I just can not stop looking at. I feel like they would flow so perfectly together.
Like this knit and mesh tank, with a price tag of $445.
Paired with these super skinny high waisted jeans, that have a zipper that literally runs the entire length of the jean. Alexander, you are a genius. I wouldn't mind snagging those heels either...
- I think I'm really starting to love bleached things. In high school I used to bleach tanks and then stud them and wear them to school. With all the compliments I received, you'd think I'd run home and splatter bleach all over my wardrobe.
I am especially LOVING these jeans. This top and blazer aren't too shabby either. The entire collaboration of the pieces in this very outfit are exactly what I've been into - putting pieces together that you would never normally put together, something grunge, something pretty/punky, and something fancy and proper. Add a zillion chunky bracelets, and you're set. I'm going to make these jeans tonight. It's official.
- I'm really getting into the groove of steampunk. I'd explain it as a new era of style, including face and body paint, and army style goggles, along with other fun things, like cut off leather gloves that look like they were once your grandpas, or bike chains as necklaces. The only explanation is deserves, is through photographs. I hope you love it as much as I do.
Basically, it looks as if you haven't showered in a day or two, and have currently been baking. Which totally works for me, because lately I have been sporting that particular look without even having to try.
- I have been spending way too much time on Twitter. First it started out as just poking around on it when I was bored, or when I was waiting for the elevator at work, or when I was waiting in line for my coffee. Now, whenever there's "news" aka when something totally minor happens, like stubbing my toe, or seeing a Billy Joel look-alike, I have to tweet about it. It's seriously addicting. Really, it's just another form of stalking. Society is REALLY taking away the idea of privacy. You can't hide anything anymore. I'm cool with it. Thankfully, I live a pretty awesome life that I love to share. BTW, my twitter name is Hipsterrr (don't forget the THREE r's!). Follow me, twitter me, tweet me.
- For someone who can care less about shoes, I have been insanely obsessed with shoes lately. OBSESSED. And I'm not talking your regular shoes, I'm talking 6 inch heels, with 1.5 inch platforms, shoes that have spikes and studs coming out of the heel, ankle boots that have cut out designs. Shoes are truly artistic to me. I find such a sense of art in ferociously constructed shoes. I think it's safe to respectfully call it shoe porn.
This is my absolutely FAVORITE pair of heels I've found thus far. I would sell my means of transportation for these. I'll take a pair in black, and a pair in fuschia as well, please.
Rumi Neely is the lucky owner of these puppies. I have been hunting them down for months. I think it's safe to say that I will never own them. Sighhh.
Hi Kate Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
