Linger So Long

won hundred hand flatforms, thrifted jacket thing, aa tightsdress under.

This is what i wore to see Lover.Muse.Mockingbird.Whore. last Saturday. The show was great but not spectacular. I was glad to have my favorite people come along and they really enjoyed it.These tights look pretty cool but i've only worn them three times and the have some small runs. i'm not sure if i regret buying them.I wish i would've worn a different dress under my button up because i realize that it looks like I'm not wearing any pants which wasn't my intention. The black dress under my shirt looks like another stripe on my tights . Just another way this blog helps or maybe hinders my style choices.
I look like i'm having a great time but it was one of the most miserable shoots to date, mostly because of the rain. I keep insisting to everyone that April is the best month but it was really letting me down on this occasion. For my birthday i went to Churrascaria Plataforma , made a trip to Six Flags and had a dinner party with my family. I got a few cute things and some awesome Bliss products c/o mom. But i think it was my bf who really outdid himself. I believe it was mostly an attempt to make up for some recent poor behavior and demonstrate his love.He even presented me with gold flash passes for six flags and also a pair of cateye rayban sungalsses. i'll post those soon. Such a keeper! It was pretty impressive but daunting.

Now that i've had more than my share of meat from the churrascaria, i'm dropping it from my diet for a while . Hopefully it will be for the rest of my life but i'm trying to take it one day at a time, kind of like a marriage . At least land animals are out and soon hopefully fish, but i don't want to lie to myself.

Ghost in Your Arms

I love wearing these shoes! Men are outraged and women are a little envious.
They're my geisha shoes. When my family and best friend saw them they all agreed they were weird but amazing.

I love this long skirt more than all the others. I was pretty much crazy about my outfit for this post so i hope you guys like it.
I've been tired but less worried. I was trying to help my bf find a different apartment because his current room mate is a monster from hell. It's kind of interesting to look for rooms in the so called "gentrification zone". trying to convince a stranger that they can live with you can be interesting but can also cause inadvertent self- reflection. He settled for a giant space in a quiet part of Long Island City. I'm so happy. If i had to go to another "tree house " loft with a bunch of high twenty somethings who all consider themselves artists, i was going to beg him to stay with the monster.
We went to this one place in East Williamsburg where the guy showing us the apartment was not only completely out of it (i.e. talking to himself for long periods of time) but also got into an intense argument with one of the room mates. He referred to the guy as a squatter because he was refusing to leave or pay rent !
Nine people and one bathroom. To top it off, the toilet was clogged and/or broken when we got there.
Now we are trying to find a room mate to move into his old room in a nice part of Brooklyn. We expect tons of replies and now we get to read through the emails and wonder about these random strangers. Who will convince us they are worthy of a nice room in a prime gentrification area?
My life is pretty much taking a better, less ugly, shape. April is always my best month.

Edit :some gorgeous piece of work i decided to add last minute . I'm hoping they come to NYC soon!:

Better Totes

I'm feeling like getting a new summer bag. something like these:

all Baggu Bags

When did i become a tote lady? I used to despise their casual vibes. But they're just so useful when i'm running from one place to another. I even found a cute backpack, although i feel like it would make me look shorter.

I like that they have zippers because my tote bags are wide open. Sometimes i think people could reach in there and take my stuff! Sometimes i even place them down on the subway and things fall out. That's how i lost my gloves the other week.

Find your favorite Baggu bag today, available now at Steady Guy!

Your Chestnut Mare

Filed under "how to look like Shaggy's girlfriend".

I got my Macbook this morning, spent a few treasured moments with it before heading to class. ! I feel like a better blogger already. I'm going to encourage my roommate to start her own blog and we are going to spend nights crouched over our laptops drinking coffee and eating jasmine rice from the thai place downstairs.

did i mention i live in a wonderfully "chinatownesque" neighborhood? Anything asian, right around the corner.

Things i lost last week : a full bottle of pills ( managed to hold onto those for a total of 1 days, fuck me). headphones. last pair of gloves. favorite marc jacobs earrings. favorite asos necklace that would've looked incredible with my "biker " inspired looks. my watch. new tube of liquid eye liner.

Something i'm making light of , but the fact that i've become one of those people who loses everything is not something i'm proud of.

I remembered i mentioned this once on here and a follower suggested i give everything a "home " that one works a lot but i need something more intesive
