Going home to the cold.

Update-Thanksgiving break is sadly over. It was not long enough. I don't want to leave. I need more time with my lovely florida and family. =( supa sad.

My flight leaves later tonight for the big city so at least I can spend the day here. I have so much homework though that I need to do it's insane. My brian is going to explode.



Anywho. Inspiration of the day. Bundled outfit posts. They are all over Tumblr. And I love them. Here are three of my favorites.

I'm thankful for

a shit ton...I actually had to narrow some of this down so it wouldn't be too long.

I'm Thankful for...

Mr. Disney for without him I wouldn't have been a happy child(and adult)


The Classics...because in the end the classics are what is remembered 

A good warm cup of tea..because it can make a night or day better

Being able to watch Dexter's Laboratory when I was little

The color White...because without it there would be too much black

The fashion world..It can be scary at times but in the end it's another love of mine

Being able to live in one of the greatest cities on earth

Sushi...Because it's the greatest thing ever. 

Starbucks...because who can really live without it? 

My Family and Friends...because they will always love me and keep me grounded. 

Nature...because without it the world would collapse 
(and it's pretty and helps us eat and breathe) 

The Moon. Because it gives us light in the darkest of nights. 
It controls our mood and the tides. 
It's the most basic and pure form of magic that we have. 

The Ying and Yangs of the world.
Balance. 




So...what are you thankful for?

Zara Gal

So the december womans lookbook for zara is amazing. It's everything I love in fashion. Simple clean cuts, a parisian flare, chic but fun.

I want it all.






***Plus these two items are so going on my wishlist***

Ralph Lauren Window Displays!

Their window displays made me so happy.

I love Christmas time.








also more pictures of walking about. 





Lets go to Ladurée!

Macarons

beautiful, airy, colorful, delightful, perfection, dainty, french.

Today we ventured to

Ladurée


Established in 1862. 

I'm so happy that we have one in our neighborhood. 

Right when I walked in instant thoughts of the French, Paris, and Marie Antionette floated into my mind. 

Lets just say a certain someone will be receiving 6 different flavors of these beautiful little desserts for her birthday ;) 




i love that they are already putting up their Christmas Decorations 

Margiela for H&M

sorry i'm so late with this update.

A few days ago was the opening for Margiela for H&M designer Collab. I woke up at 6 30 to hit the long line with Stormy. It was totes worth it.

I was super impressed with the cuts and stitching of the clothes. Also the fabrics used were so amazing to touch and feel.

I bought a beautiful 89' re-designed blazer
and a 96' Long silver and white dress (very Kate Moss)

Dream Homes for the future

something that always keeps me sane and happy is thinking of interior decorating. I love imagining how my room will look like when I move again. I imagine what kind of art I want on the walls, the color of wood for the floors, the fabric and color of sheets for my bed. It helps keep me grounded in the fact that I have control over somethings in my life.

I tend to lean towards more natural, rustic, chic parisian settings for my futures homes. I love lots of woody white with big windows(a la factory style) Rose gold accents( the sheets, minor decorative items)

If you still don't understand what I mean here are some wonderful photos I have found around the internet.





(i love this. I could do so much with it)

My life so far

So my life right now is chaotic.

School
Career
more school...and more career.
and by career I mean trying to decide which agencies to call back and sign with. It's all overwhelming.

The future is always so scary to me. I never want to make the wrong choice. I am excited though. My life is really beginning. I never thought my career would start so soon. But it is and I have to face it like a big girl.

Now here are a few pictures from my life so far

               F-U notes to Sandy


                                     

Re-reading my Nasty gal Mag. Major inspiration to keep working hard

the words I am constantly telling myself
