Oh How It's Been So Long...

alright i've been without internet for a little over a week and i've been so deprived of my daily fashion dose from blogs. The only thing that's been keeping me from going mad is Twilight. i never thought i'd be one to read a near 500 page book about vampires. don't get me wrong, i love vampires. but some people just go to far. as far as drinking actual human blood. no joke. haha anyways.

Last Tuesday i went to Nordstrom Rack in San Leandro and it was just two days after i was looking at Betsey Johnson, Patricia Field, Tarina Tarantino, etc. Just wishing i could have something of their. But at their prices (besides Patricia Field) it probably wouldn't happen until christmas. Buuutttt..........at the back corner of the store....a sample shoe sale...and there i found two pairs of Betsey Johnson shoes size 6 for...are you ready for this...?

$49.99

DIE!!! I walked out of that store an extremely happy girl...AND i got a Betsey Johnson necklace thats adorable for $25. Oh annddd...my mom also bought a gazillion shoes. along with L.A.M.B shoes she found that were $360 and went down to $160.

here are the beauties...

the rest....

The ones of the left are also Betsey Johnson.

.....and the L.A.M.B shoes my mom is absolutley crazy over.

alright. and i apologize for not replying to comments this week. i just got on the internet and i have loads to catch up on.

Audrey! Audrey! Audrey!

For those of you who don't know, Audrey Kitching is another "Scene Queen" like Raquel Reed.

I just love the spectrum's of color in her style.

and they way her pink hair looks with purple and turquoise.

I love posting Muse's that aren't as well known in the high fashion scene. Since most of these girls are affiliated with the Emo/Indie/Hardcore Music Scene. And I'd love to be one of the first to fully enforce it and be apart of this fashion movement.

More New Stuff?

went shopping....again. haha. So i finally went to the boot sale and found nothing in my size. only one pair of boots that are Mod at it's best. the boots are a little bold for me. I'm a little shy to wear them. But as soon as i find the way to wear them it'll be good.

i bought the t-shirt in a large so i could wear it as a t-shirt dress. and i stretched the neckline so it'd be more of an off the shoulder top. I'm so wearing it to Cobra Starship next month.

the shorts are some old jeans i cut after drooling over the William Rast Line. but I have a better denim that i can use other than that rich navy blue.

So that's what i got yesterday. and a MAJOR thank you to people reading my blog. now i feel like i'm not talking to myself. :)

Another Muse...

The Beautiful Jenny Lewis
Lead singer of Rilo Kiley and solo project Jenny Lewis With the Watson Twins.

I love, love, love her style. It's a stark contrast to yesterdays Raquel Reed, but like i said before. I cannot stick to one style. I haven't styled for it yet, but i do have an idea of what i'm going to do. I even brought out my old cowboy boots from 2005. I'm going to incorporate small floral patterns, velvets, golds, flowy sleeves, sadly i don't own any rompers (yet), cowboy boots, tights, halter dresses, trapeze dresses, ruffles, button-up shirt dresses, and some blazers.

As i researched her style I listened to Rilo Kiley. The music was really inspiring, Under The Blacklight is mostly alternative indie rock, with a little bit of soul and country. Definitely an amazing album. Buy it.

okay so i'll update this post later with pictures of my take on her style.

Etsy. Etsy. Etsy.

So i got bored of waiting for my mother to wake up and started browsing some sites, looking for some pieces i've been dying for, and finding new things.

i found a couple things people made/revamped/found at Etsy

i bought new mascara , teasing comb for my hair, and vogue today. im bored. i usually don't buy vogue. i more of Nylon freak. oh how i love my monthly dose of Nylon. alright i'm going to bed.

i might do a second post tomorrow with a new Muse. but that should be around noon. i don't know who it's going to be. Either Jemina Pearl or Audrey Kitching. if it's Jemina it'll be short. if it's Audrey.....well i'll be digging through closets for a long time.

My Latest Muse

The Gorgeous Raquel Reed.

she's an alternative model from New York, she's consider one of the Scene Queens. Along with Audrey Kitching, Hanna Beth, Kiki Kannibal, etc. I really love her style, it's glam-rock-disco-scene-feminine-mod. she's amazing. So today i decided to create a wardrobe inspired by her. Some stuff from my closet, some stuff from my moms. It wasn't too much of a challenge. I didn't post every single picture i was inspired by. so if something looks out of place, that's why.
