Essentially what my studio looks like at the moment. I own this bed and my walls are some what similar. Add in a few purple and grey bins and wala you are in my apartment.
For this week's Weekly Wednesday the theme is is decor. I've recently moved but its not quite finished. So I thought I'd share some places inspiring my little project. Coveteur here i come!
My windows are french but definitely not this cool. I love the idea of minimal blacks, whites and imitation furs. Also a place that is stretch worth in the AM
A kitchen that would make me want to bake, mix, and chop up on the daily. I don't have the view this bathroom does but a serene vibe while bathing is definitely do-able. And big skull, fire place... say no more!
There is nothing wrong with trippy or over-the-top pieces. And most of all I would want somewhere to call home and cuddle up. Because who wouldn't want to feel like Blair Waldorf.

Since moving into my new place... Damn I'm not even sure I mentioned the fact that I move two weeks ago, Sorry. (More on the new digs later)
Yes, so since moving into my new place I've fallen into this tradition of coming home from work on Friday and climbing into my full sized bed and not moving for hours. There is a level of comfort that comes from the all white scenery of my plush comforters. And to quote every 14 year old girl; I know its only been two weeks, but I know this is the real.
These are my Fridays. Especially since I'm now located further from campus and my friends. But you know what? I'm okay with that!
How do you whined down on Fridays?

Shirt/Dress: Designed by Myself - Watch: Gifted - Sandals: XXI
So the Oh Land song was not in my head when I decided to shoot this outfit against the light of my window. However, as I am editing them and posting this its on repeat and its definitely the mood I was in while taking them.
This white piece is something I designed some time ago and named the "Shirt Dress." It was originally supposed to be a structured tank but came out too long. Making lemonade out of lemons I've worn it always worn it tucked into my bottoms. And for a while it was just sitting in my closet because it frustrated me. And now its become a favorite. Very A Wang if you as me. I wore it yesterday with these sandals and my equal in length trench/parka. Any suggestions on how I should wear it next are welcome.

This was an accident of a location. I was headed to my favorite pure white wall across the street from my apartment the laundry mat caught my eye. This was an instant thought of an post title as well. It popped into my head upon walking in and I stuck with it.
Going to attempt to capture my casual outfits more. I'm never in sneaker on this blog so I guess we can make that happen more often right?
Also my birthday was last Thursday and it was great spending it with close friends. Also, also I think I'm over birthdays.

Long time no blog? Well I actually have a back up post but never felt like posting them. This is due to me wanting to be present and aware after posting. I have been all about pulling myself out of productivity funk. But I think I am out of it!
Anywho, this out was so fun for me because it fits two of my favorite things --- dramatice pieces and the color black. This skirt (which I temporarily hemmed myself was so much fun to walk around it all day. It has all the girly attributes without the commitment of color.
These shots are courtesy of Le Boyfriend. The think I like about having him as a camera guy is his direction. He has a very creative mind so he adds extra input to where and how I should sit/stand. Its always nice not having to think about it so much and just play model lol.
P.S. the mirror shot was not planned he took that while I was getting ready. Thanks baby! (he reads my blog from time to time).
ROSES ARE RED IS GETTING A MAKEOVER TODAY BTW!!!!

Top: Forever21 - Shorts: Thrifted - Necklace: F21 - Shoes: Thrash - Bow: Made by Me
So today was actually wash day (actually it should have been but I've been procrastinating). I used a wash room in my building as my location due to a pesky setting sun. I was reminded that one of my first outfit posts were taken in a wash room. I've gotten more creative since then so this ended up being fun and the light creating nice shadows. You are welcome go back to 08' archives and look for those photos but spare me the embarrassment if you can.
Also these shoes are new (new for the blog but they have seen life for the past month). Do you like? I have them in a tan color as well. They are so comfortable, I feel like I'm walking on stilts whenever I put them on.

Hey guys! No outfit today but I thought I'd give you guys a tour of my room via details. We moved in to our apartment this past August and since then I have putting together my little sanctuary. I always wanted something similar to the rooms I always saw in the back of each issue of Teen Vogue when I was a younger. Now as an adult I am able to create a mature version of my dream room...
Current nail collection and I'm loving Essie right now!
My bed complete with my favorite colors (purple and black), bears given to me by the BF, & a bed net.
My ring bowl, Fashion/Photography books, Photos:Mom & I + Prom.
Mannequin wearing my necklace and dress from my 19th birthday dinner.
I am very anal about my clothing so everything (tops, dresses, and shoes even my pants by shade put away in a drawer). It all started with my crayons in kindergarten having to be in order by the colors.
My new DKNY rain boots... they are so fun stomp around in!
I'm not done yet by this makes me happy to come home too every afternoon. This was sort of a sneak peek. I know I left out my vanity but that is still a even bigger work in process. What have you guys done to create your own safe haven?
BF and I on our third Anniversary, A bottle of his cologne (my favorite thing he has given to me).

Just wanted to say Happy New Years to you guys! I hope your night was wonderful and the countdown was spent with the ones you loved. And for those who drank were able to successfully nurse their hangover. My night was nothing big but loads of fun spent with friends.
These are the moments where having a tripod comes in handy. No one likes to be left out of group pictures.
With the help of Dick Clark and our noise makers we let 2012 into our lives...
