thoughts in my head




boots: steve madden
ring: vintage
sweater: unknown origin





this is another photoshoot for the betterness



c h r i s t m a s is coming.
just 3 more days...

anyway i am in love with these justabout thigh high steve maddens. they aren't mine... but i love them!!

this sweater i personally want to wear everywhere. it is right on: oversized, chic, smells weird, comfy, soft, men's, and ugly. everything i want in a sweater. this photoshoot was soooo fun to take too. except i kept having to pull down the sweater...ha. again, picture perfectness credit has to go to my good friend jen janowsky, the amazing photographer behind all the awesomeness of the betterness.


merry christmas happy hanukkah and kwanza one and all:

have an awesome holiday.

vests.




so, today. is the first day. of what i like to call the betterness. basically, the betterness is just me actually having outfit shoots i didn't personally take or have my seventh gradeughhhlexithisissoooolame brother take. who also happens to be terrible at photography. no, these awesome pictures were taken by my great, photographer-and-friend, jen janowsky. i know, Polish, right? well her Polish awesomeness took the betterness outfit shoots that i will post more often now.

in this, i'm wearing an urban outfitters tunic, american eagle cami, vintage thrifted vest (which has become my new obsession), uo geode necklace, pac sun jeans, vintage ring, and pour la victoire oxfords.


so far i am liking the betterness.

if you are reading this post, it's recommended, no, it's MANDATORY that you click the link below to see jen's amazing photostream.

FENDI spring 2010 rtw









pretty. there you have it. that is my oh so original take on the spring 2010 rtw fendi. the gowns and the skirts and the shirts and the everything was sooo well crafted (only to be expected of fendi). it was all so flowy silky satiny soft and gorgeous. i truly loved it. and it was spring without being overt, and it was also very soft and feminine. just wonderful.
just. wonderful. plus, all those shooooooezzz. They were all pretty much the same shoe however i was reaaally into them and i want a pair.
they also had these great wood-handled bags. Everything was very minimal, simple, and elegant. it was really my kind o thing.




this is silvia venturini fendi, obviously designer of fendi. i wish i could tell her in person how amazing this collection was. i mean truly. it was spring, it was simple, but that it all fendi needs because i think it is best that way. and the first look at the top and the last one (i posted them in this order, this isn't the order of the collection.) gorgeoussss. i really do love the long flowy beautiful first gown (at top of post or just click here for the picture) and the short dress with the amazing train and the shrug-type-thing (i'm sure i'm wrong about what that is, but it's great!!) just wow.

fendi.

man.

so sorry.


okay well i'm sure everyone in the world ( beware: this is a joke) has noticed that i haven't been on or posted in abtalutly too long. sorry! i have been so busy and if i want this blog to go anywhere i do realize i should sort of be on top of this stuff...(sorry??) not to mention i missed a music monday. i truly am a disappointing human being! Anyway, i would like to inform you that i will not be posting carolina herrara's collection purely because it was good but not great. and that's a long shot from fantastical. sooo, i will post about someone else's collection, as soon as i find one i truly LOVEE. and i will be on more often. yes.

seriously.
in the meantime though, i thought i would make it up to you with a fendi look i am very fond of, the whole thing, clothesmakeuphairmodelbagshoes the whole shabang. that model is amazing. not to mention the ENTIRE look. that's that thingggy up top. it's from their spring 2010 rtw.

bye all
hope you enjoyed

all those c's.



carolina herrara
celine

chanel

charlotte ronson

christian dior

christian louboutin

christopher kane

comme des garcons


so the c's.
well, i have to admit i was a little disappointed with these c's.
however on the bright side, i did manage to memorize the a's and the b's perfectly (alexander mcqueen, alexander wang, antonio berardi, balenciaga, betsey johnson, bottega venetta, burberry prorsum!) if you have no idea what i am talking about, please, click here (last week's designers post).
anyway, i decided out of all of them, carolina herrara was my favourite, i will do a post on her collection soon.
also, christopher kane's collection i hated. :( i don't like hating things.

*sigh*
oh and i ordered marc jacobs shoes and they don't fit properly.
i think i am in a sad mood.
however...
c h r i s t m a s
