one night to be confused

Here are some photos from ctl  of tribal mask illustrations by Nina Chakrabarti for I Want You magazine. 

Today some friends and I went down to Venice beach. It was nice walking around and seeing all the interesting little booth table things.. there are so many really cool rings down there! There were tables selling things like Harry Potter wands, MJ shirts, and tribal mask/table/stuff. I love the atmosphere, everyone is happy, there's music playing and a man walking around on stilts with a painted face and dressed kind of like the girl in the Fever Ray video 'When I grow up'. The beach was also very fun too, it was a little cloudy, and the waves were violent.. but it's fun to ride with them and just float around out there. I wish I could have taken some photos to share with you, but I didn't. Next time!

How was your weekend?

and you kept us awake with wolves teeth

Thrifted blouse, UO skirt, Colonial Madness shoes.
What I wore to school yesterday, but I fell asleep before I could post this. Hah. I felt quite summery in this outfit, very light. I enjoy the pink underwear pin I received from a friend who found it in the trashcan.. Today, Amelia came over and we made a Nutella cake (maybe in celebration that summer school ends tomorrow)! It's delicious. Go make one!

You've probably already seen this, posted on Jak&Jil quite a while ago. I just had to say, I LOVE IT. Probably because it's done in sharpie, and the gold chain is just brilliant. haha. I almost want a child now, so I can send them to school with a lunchbag like this everyday. Or maybe I'll just go to school with it. Yeah, that's better. :D

Wir Kinder Vom Bahnhof Zoo. 1981.
A story of a young girl, Christiane F. who lives in Berlin and gets into drugs and prostitution at a young age with her boyfriend Detlav. It's a good movie. I suggest you watch.

farewell my black balloon

Mom's old maxi dress worn shorter, Colonial Madness heels, vintage belt (underneath), UO woven belt.
My mom gave me this dress because.. well it basically looks like a sac if you don't wear it like this. I don't even
know why she owns it in the first place.
I put a belt around it and then pulled it up so it draped over the belt, hiding the belt, creating two layers.
Then I put another larger belt over to give it some shape. I am quite pleased with it. The dress also has a nice
dark floral leafy pattern which I like as well. It would look nice in the fall with black tights and a coat.
I'm starting to go back into my fall clothing phase. I want to wear coats and jackets, even when August hasn't
begun yet. hah. Summer school ends.. next week! YES!
Health class has been interesting.. I just finished a project on genital warts. Lovely, isn't it? I could barely do it.
You don't know how gross these things are until you actually look them up. Don't try it.

and we take flight

1950's inspired editorial with Heidi Mount for Harper's Bazaar, I posted a photo of her when I first started my blog. She is really beautiful. I'm really into the old looking photos and the jumpsuit.. This reminds of when I was little and I watched dogfights (airplanes, not dogs) on History channel with my dad. I wanted to be a pilot, until I got into fashion, haha.

one hundred and one

Remember this?

ratatat

Thrifted Yosemite tee, UO skirt and shoes, vintage jewelry.

Lately, I've been really into Local Natives and Ratatat.. listen to them.

I don't know what to write.

Happy fourth of July! I had a nice quiet dinner with the family then snuck into my uncle's house to see the fireworks. Haha. Well I'm off to watch the Curious Case of Benjamin Button with my mom now. Hope you had a great weekend!

its alive

Thrifted velvet blazer, American Apparel dress worn as a shirt, thrifted shorts, vintage ring. 

Some pictures from yesterday.. still haven't found my camera so I was forced to take photobooth pictures, again. Bad quality, sorry. I purchased this vintage ring at a little antique store with a LOT of jewelry. I've been wearing it everyday (: haha. A friend of mine, (who helped me pay for the ring, since I was broke) also gave me this scorpio pin. I think it goes nicely on this velvet blazer, which was only a dollar. What a find. 

The AT&T guy just fixed the internet (I was internet free for three days). It's amazing how bored I am without the internet, telephone, and television. However I did go for a nice walk yesterday, despite the ten thousand degree weather. 

I'm thinking about taking some yoga classes.. 

Three day weekend~
