#OOTD Circa 2009….

This week has been the strangest. Aside from the obvious electoral travesty, (still praying this is some sort of parallel universe… PLEASE.) weird things have been happening… I’ve been listening to Bruno Mars (accidentally??) and having the most bizarre dreams. Mercury isn’t even in retrograde?? I drank a cappuccino today which isn’t me in the slightest. Black iced coffee is much more my speed,…

Happy Bday Kendall J

I distinctly remember the episode of KUWTK when Kendall told her mom, or rather, Momager, that she wanted to be a model. Fast forward 5/6 years & now she’s the face of Estée Lauder & has walked for LITERALLY everyone from Wang to Rousteing. She may be the least interesting member of the Kardashian/Jenner clan, but, one simply can not deny her good genes and, well, good jeans (S/O to…

#OOTD I Oughta Know

Did you know Alanis Morissette’s “You Oughta Know” is loosely based off of her relationship with DAVE COULIER??? DAVE COULIER!! Uncle Joey & Alanis dated circa Full House and now there’s Fuller House and I’m honestly so confused how a song of such intense emotional desolation can emanate from a relationship with a man who voiced a woodchuck for living… I’ve been distraught over this information…

#OOTD: It’s Been Raining for 5 Days

I’ve been playing Starboy on repeat for the past 20/30/ who knows… 90? minutes & scarfing down salád w chicken & hot sauce to give you a visual of my ~#NationalBoyfriendDay~ I genuinely don’t understand why there is a day dedicated to this, but there’s a National Felt Hat Day sooo… but somehow that seems far more useful, no?? OKAY so here’s what I wore like 4ish days ago:   Banana Republic silk…

Currently Coveting: My Fall Re-rereading List

Right now I’m currently eating a lemon chicken salad at a cute pub / bar / weekend warrior hangout alone which is something I literally do all the time because asking people to eat with you is sad and honestly too much work and I hate the “we’re splitting the check” convo with the waiter/ress when I have much better things to do like write this. Do I get pity glances? Yeah. Do I care? No. I’m…

Love is Dead: & Other Sentiments

  Today, it was announced that Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt. Legitimately can’t say it out loud–that makes it real. I’m currently drowning my sorrows in a trenta green tea lemonade with light ice / no sweeter in my safe place aka Starbucks during my 30 min lunch break.   I think my BFF / Grandmother’s words are most apropos in this time of tragedy: “If they couldn’t last, who…

Mario Badescu, Love of My Life

If someone asked me to pick 5 things to bring for an extended vacay on a deserted island Cast Away style, this MB drying lotion would undoubtedly be one of the chosen. & probably an endless supply of voss water, chocolate chip cliff bars, aquaphor & SPF 1000–in case you were wondering. I have fairly acne-prone skin if I’m not on top of it, and this has become such a vital part of my routine, I…

#OOTD Fall has Fallen

    Fall has fallen? IDK I’m just going to go with it. This morning it was approx. a glorious 51 degrees, hence the sweatshirt / jacket / bootie scenario. I love crisp, chilly Fall mornings far more than sticky, lethargic Summer moments. The act of sweating isn’t really something I willingly choose to participate in, so Fall & I are fast friends. My jacket is from the vintage store I work at & is…

Currently Coveting: Dynasty at Dusk

Mac Cremesheen Glass is a classic, but my all-time fave shade is Dynasty at Dusk. It’s the perfect peachy sheen for literally every skin tone. Everyone loves NARS  Orgasm gloss, but this is so much better forreal. Trusssst. Maybe it’s bc the name is reminiscent of the best 80s show ever, Dynasty, AKA the show starring Joan Collins & Linda Evans. Joan Collins is Cara Delevingne’s godmother, but if…

Hello, hellooo!! So keeping up with this whole blogging situation is hard, but starting TODAY I’m going to be posting daily. This polaroid was taken @ the Urban Outfitters in my college town. Literally only took this to win a camera, buuut I’ve been slacking on outfit pictures so figured I would post! My dress is from Garage (thx Canada !!), and my jacket is from Thread & Supply. My sunglasses…
