Things people at work talk about:

-Taking their girdle off
-Looking forward to pooping. (They used the term "being regular" but it's basically the same thing)
-wrecking renting cars
-eating amazing smelling food ALL THE TIME.

I drank too much coffee today.

lady gaga's wearing my glasses!

Behold!
























I mean really Gaga, at first it was cute, but you should *really* try to find your own, unique style.

Kiddingggg!

people i apparently look like part 2!

I saw an ad with a bunch of hipster kids running around a Polaroid crayon-colored world with white letters being scrawled everywhere. Tired sayings like "don't settle" and "stand out" and "do your own thing goshdarnit." Can you guess what it's an ad for?

MAYONNAISE.

Hey kids, stand out by eating bland egg-flavored crap that your mom's been putting on your sandwiches for years.

I need some cheeriness today. Thanksgiving came and went so quickly and, while delicious, the Tryptophan hangover is always a bit of a downer. Soooo yeah. Everyone's starting to hang Christmas lights over their balconies, so everything is pretty and festive.. I love that.

Oh! And now it's time for..

People I Apparently Look Like, Part II!

Eva Green!






































Cooool. A bunch of people have told me this, even though I have a hard time seeing it sometimes. I guess maybe in the eyes? Maybe I should grow my hair back out :-P Anyway, love to you on this Sunday! xx

sunday lovely sunday

Hi my loves! I'm trying posting on Facebook now, so bear with me while I try figuring out how this works. How are you doing today? This weekend was so much fun, went shopping in Friendship Heights with Mike Cowhand yesterday, and had some fun in Chinatown in the evening time. Rocket Bar is so awesome. They played Bad Romance twice, once while Heather, Jacob and I owned some randoms in shuffleboard. I'm aware that I sound 80 years old.

Anyway! I've spent today being totally lazy (glorious) and looking at the site WeHeartIt.com. Found some super amazing photographs, so thought I'd share them with you. Here's a few of what I personally "heart":
1.) crazy zexxy parties


































2.) crazy zexxy coffeee!

















3.) leggings! i want these!

















4.) Gaga of course.. she looked like Predator tonight at the AMA's! <333 onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh3kCi2S5hsLnofS2l7uFm5EQf4Se3Rsk7oyrcygLucetmIltyX5i_aoHSPk84lJ5iqosEJp2CI2Fg1sxZYN5JVBIyWASuCnIQU_-TM4XkRhwoG5w6vO3M7KmZ4i81BY9KOGr4c0kqHhM/s1600/tumblr_kt2h1u65YQ1qza4gto1_500_large.jpg">







































































5.) jane birkin.. i basically want to be her. her life and style are amazing, and she had the hottest relationship ever..























































































6.) and last but not least... KITTEN MITTENS!

Happy Halloween! Heather carved a pumpkin and is roasting the seeds. The apartment smells AMAZING. She's so awesome at this kind of stuff.

We went to the zoo last night!! But the pandas were sleeping :( It was "Night of the Living Zoo" with a costume party and stuff.. I was gonna go as Lady Gaga, but the wig I ordered was beyond awful, so....


Twiggy it was! Thank goodness for short hair and vintage dresses! On the left is my lovely Newsie roomie. I wanted to steal her hat and run home with it! But she knows where I live...

There are a couple more parties tonight.. I might wear another dress and do a bit more elaborate Twiggy-ish makeup.. I think I did well though, considering I changed my costume in 5 minutes yesterday.

YUM the pumpkin seeds are done and delicious. Catch ya later! Love!

For lack of my own creative thinking, I'd like to cite something cool and inspiring. Leave it to the NY Times to provide just that with an article on Coco Chanel as a "post-feminist." Whatever that even means.. I just thought she was fantastic, and this quote in particular resonated with me:

“She never knows what is going to happen next and she has no protection, so she must fight against her destiny and create a new way not just to dress, but to be.”

Wow, you mean even the most fabulous woman ever had to fight tooth and nail to get there? Well then surely anyone can do the same, right?

In other news, my new job is great! My boss is a little crazy, but some of the people who come in are fantastic. The other night a lady dropped $600 on stuff she'd be wearing on a trip to New York City, and guess who gets comission! *ding ding ding me!*)

I'm also inspired today by the unabashed off-the-wall-ness of quirky London fashion, courtesy of one of my *favorite* blogs, The Sartorialist. No regard for convention, how things are "supposed to look" in order to look good. It's crazy, and crazy refreshing.


I think my favorite part of this is the leggings. So unique! And I didn't know you could layer leggings! What will they think to layer next! Bras? Shoes? They already got to everything else!


Anyway, in my own bout of craziness, I purchased the following:

I love it.. but hope it doesn't make me look like I'm wearing a Halloween costume.. I'll let you know when I try it out!

Hrm Hrm... That's all for now.. Love you all!
