epic.

dazed & confused

This weekend was the kind I dreamed about when I was an angsty high-schooler, awaiting the freedom of college and the infinite amount of reckless decisions it would allow me as a girl away from home.





There may or may not have been streaking involved.

i must admit, i can't explain/any of these thoughts running through my brain

Hellooo fabulous blogworld, I'm back from being on hiatus, I'm sure you're all so relieved. My roommate just got me hooked on Polyvore, it is already a sick, sad addiction. Here are my first two sets:

Also, the new Black Keys album leaked, and it is ah-mazing. Seriously. Just got tickets to see them at Summerstage in NYC this summer and I cannott wait. If you like dirty sexy rock & roll, get at it.

Tracks to check out: Everlasting Light, Tighten Up, Howlin' For You.

pretty little things

"If I find in myself desires which nothing in this world can satisfy, the only logical explanation is that I was made for another world." -C.S. Lewis

I've been feeling a little down lately, so I did some therapy shopping. On the 14th, instead of sitting around waiting for some Valentine's Day miracle to show up on my doorstep with roses and sweet lovin', I walked my lonely butt right up to SoHo and found this beautiful purple amethyst stone ring. Instant single girl pick-me-up.
Today, I was having what my friend Meag and I like to call an I'm-the-ugliest-girl-in-the-world day, so I walked my sad butt right down to the Sephora on 5th and bought some pretty girl Nars lipstick in Roman Holiday- quite possibly the perfect pink, inspired by the beautiful Audrey Hepburn. Instant cure for the mean reds.
Money may not be able to buy happiness, but it sure can buy some pretty things.

bird girl

I am a bird girl now
I've got my heart
Here in my hands now
I've been searching
For my wings some time
I'm gonna be born
Into soon the sky
'Cause I'm a bird girl
And the bird girls go to heaven
I'm a bird girl
And the bird girls can fly
Bird girls can fly

watch things on VCRs with me and talk about big love

Currently listening to: The Xx- Xx

I pretty much live in these shoes that I recently got at a sample sale. I was never really a clog girl, but I do love a good wedge heel, and I kind of have a feeling those Chanel calf skins as seen on Alexa Chung may convert me into a full fledge clog lover afterall.

I came home this weekend to beautiful things, good friends, and a lovely snowfall. My amazing mother bought me a bouquet of pink roses from the Farmer's Market, and a box of rainbow cookies atop my newly arrived copies of Vogue and Nylon. Nate, my dear friend and overall savior of my mental stability, came over to venture with me into the brewing blizzard for coffee and a redbox movie. Happiness.

the soft dive of oblivion

it was a glitter glamourama party of lies
but all that human drama, well it was burning my eyes
and everyone so seriously danced together
and the reflections from their diamond encrusted gold plated guns
enhanced the greens and the blues in their peacock feathers

and they looked so beautiful, so red faced and forgetful
and no matter how hard they tried to take in the moment, they couldn't

Piano bars make everything a little bit better. With the stress of life, school, and work in a couture atelier with t minus 5 days until NYFW, sometimes the only thing to do is drink and be merry, surrounded by some beautiful people who also happen to be your best friends.

Cheers,
Angie
