I had my hair done last weekend, but after washing it was too lazy to blow dry and style it. This is the result of air drying and throwing it in a messy bun to keep out of my face while I sew. It looked SO nice after having it done. I need to get myself in a better routine so I can get all the things I want to, done. Such as blow drying and sometimes even straightening my hair. I feel like I don’t have time for anything, but at that same time don’t feel like I do enough to not have the time for those things. sheesh! I’m a mess.
I need to find balance. I need to figure out how I can be happy working full time every day, and then still find the time to do the creative things I am constantly anxious to work on, when the work day is over. AND do my laundry, prepare a decent meal, spend time with my friends and family, make time for just me, pamper myself, workout. Okay, now I think I’m going to have a panic attack. There is just not enough time for it all. How do you do it all?
Yes, this post title is from the Papa Roach song “Tightrope” it was the hidden track on the album I had. Always really liked that song.
Favorite FNO, the Show, looks.
So, thanks to CBS.com I was able to watch Fashion’s Night Out, The Show live streaming online yesterday! I was pretty stoked.
The show was RAD. If I ever get over my fear of flying I would LOVE Love love to try to make it to one, since this is the show anyone can attend. I love that idea. Thank you, Anna Wintour.
Opening Act:
All the models came out in gorgeous long skirts with their FNO tank tops on top.
a. I LOVE this grey Carolina Herrera skirt. I’m really into this mullet skirt thing (short in front, long in back).
b. Oscar de la Renta
c. This Monique Lhuillier might be my fav. I’m not usually a fan of the bunching, but these last 2 skirts, I really like.
Fifties Flair:
Really all of these looks were pretty great. It just looks so fun to be all dolled up in retro inspired outfits. It was very Mad Men.
d. Paul Smith dress
e. I Love the Navy and brown in this Sophie Theallet dress.
f. I think this is my favorite from this section. I love the colors together! LOVE. Miu Miu sweater with Gold St. John pencil skirt.
Tartan Twist:
I love how these alot of the plaids were paired with big black boots and leather pieces. It totally toughens them up.
g. Dries Van Noten coat
h. L.A.M.B. coat
i. I really love the idea of a cape coat. 3.1 Phillip Lim cape coat
Pure at Heart:
I wasn’t really to keen on many on the Pure at Heart looks. I can’t say why really. I didn’t hate any of them, but nothing really stood out to me above the rest other than the complete Marni look. Maybe, I am just not in the mood for the pureness of it all right now.
j. I love this blank coat. The color makes me swoon. I love tans. But, really can we talk about the Rose Bermuda shorts? Because, I’m in L<3ve.
Weekend Wrap up:
Just about all of these I was really into. I love scarves, and big bags.
k. This coat is damn awesome. Tibi coat, J. Brand pants, Rag & Bone scarf, Filson bag, Gap boots.
l. Opening Ceremony coat, American Apparel turtleneck, Filson bag, Gap boots.
m. All Burberry, except for the J.Crew sacrk and Jason Wu belt. I love this Olive Suit by Burberry Prorsum, it feels very military while being totally feminine and classic. I want.
n. All Rag & Bone except for Burberry boots.
Rock Chic:
o. Isabel Marant
p. D&G Velvet Blazer, Isabel Marant gold sequin leggings
Go Global:
q. H&m coat, Gary Graham dress

End of Summer.
A little outfit post. My girlfriend had an end of Summer BBQ over Labor day weekend. The weather was great. I was excited to get a few of my lady friends in one place to get them to model a few hair pieces to add to my Etsy shop. Accomplished that! Got some great pics out in the sun for the shop.
Before I headed over, I actually took time to snap a couple outfit pics. Pretty simple. Gotta keep it minimal in the heat.
Dress/top: Forever 21
Biker shorts: Forever 21
T-strap canvas flats: Urban Outfitters
These flats are my new favorite right now. I got them on sale a couple weeks ago. They make me feel a little bit like a dolly <3
I think my top is supposed to be a dress. But, since I’m 5’9″…. not so much. Luckily for me, this biker short thing is working out quite well. I love them.
Peek-A-Boo
I’m really into sheer clothing at the moment. I Love the a little hint of something that looks like it should otherwise be covered, if not for a sheer piece of fabric.
Some Spring 2010 runway looks:
Left to Right: Chanel, Giancarle Ferre, and Roksanda Ilincic.
And, a few looks from Charlotte Ronson’s Spring 2010 Ready to Wear show (I LOVE IT):
Some fun pieces:
kelly bergin chiffon pocket t-shirt at OAKNYC.
LNA Lace Deep V Lace Top at ASOS.
Sleeveless Sheer Back Zip Dress at YESSTYLE
And some items I intend on acquiring (at least something similar to):
Asos Mesh Insert Leggings at ASOS.
(I NEED these! Sadly standard sizes are sold out, and petite is all that left, wtf)
Sheer Mesh cycling shorts at ASOS, And Sparkle and Fade lace biker shorts from Urban Outfitters, however no longer available. I’m on the hunt for something similar…
Unisex Oversized Ringer See Thru shirt at American Apparel.

Maybe I’ll try to do one or 2 a week. Let’s see how that goes.
