As you can see, I have had nearly every color under the sun. Also a mohawk. And this collage doesn’t even cover it all! One of my favorite color schemes was during a camera-less period – when it was very short with bangs, neon orange in the back, purple in the front, and a skunk-stripe [...]

May 28th, 2009Defining Your Personal Style, Part Two: The Essentials
So, every book on fashion ever written has a chapter or section on essentials. I, personally, find these really useless. Example? The “essential” crisp white button up shirt is a total throwaway to me. They make me think of servers, finding button up shirts that fit at bust and waist is a nigh-impossibility for me, [...]
May 26th, 2009Marvelous Monday!

Daily Outfit 5/24/09 + News!
I am not so hot right now, as Alicia and I went to take a few photos, in which I was wearing my new shoes shown below. As it turns out, jumping around in near-four-inch heels is NOT a good idea – I took a nasty tumble and my ankle started swelling almost immediately. Urgh. [...]

May 22nd, 2009New Design!
As you may have noticed, I’ve redesigned the website! Please bear with me over the next couple of days as I get the kinks worked out – I’m planning on adding a few widgets to the right sidebar which is why it looks so bare right now. Any suggestions or comments, feel free to let [...]
May 20th, 2009Defining Your Personal Style, Part One: The Concept
Defining personal style can be an intensely difficult thing to do. For some people it comes very easily, for others, not so much. If you’ve spent every day for the last several years just throwing on whatever is comfortable in the morning, it can be pretty challenging to start actually thinking about your clothing choices. [...]
May 19th, 2009Marvelous Monday!
This video, found via doublespeak on Livejournal, is awesome. (her aesthetic and sense of style is awesome too – her outfits are to die for!)
I agree with everything he says on education wholeheartedly!
Mrs. O’s No Jackie O. (And That’s A Good Thing!) at Cheap JAP. Did I already post a link to this? Hm. Oh [...]

DIY’d tank, vintage ring and necklace, Elie Tahari skirt, Fluevog shoes (told you they look cuter on!)
Yup, I need to paint my toenails! They’re really comfy too, as far as the height goes – the leather around the toes needs stretched out a bit.
I’m excited about this week – have a lot of great stuff [...]
