Seís Años


Light

Mike and I celebrated our anniversary by visiting the 1940-1980 portion of MOCA's "First Thirty" exhibit. The exhibit was arranged in chronological order. I'm sure I've destroyed that order in this post.

We'll have to head back to catch the 1980-Now portion.

This scarf is wonderfully long, the fishnet weaving makes for a unique texture and its particular shade of brown makes me feel earthy and natural.

And this painting completely reminds me of this great David LaChapelle photo of Drew.

This is me being utterly lame, but I couldn't resist taking a pic on my iPhone in front of the Warhol.

Below is my favorite, a Roy Lichtenstein. The only date circled on the calendar is Mike's birthday. ♥

Feeling Mr. Boombastic in this coat. Older dress revived with some black and red glitter tights, black over the knee socks, my faux-fur trimmed "killer boots maaaaaan", tiny H&M freebie bag (earned after a long wait at a grand opening, yes, I'm a sucker indeed), chunky forever rings and and since the dress is low cut, a silver bandeau top.

Blur

blue

My apologies, I'm throwing these up with little fancy photo-editing footwork. Mike made some room on my computer so I was finally able to transfer pictures onto it.

These were taken a few weeks ago, prior to a night of dancing with one of my fave fine ladies.....V! *Most excellent time*

This is "denim taken to a whole new level". Yeah, I definitely got carried away. Home-made denim cut-offs, vintage levi's cropped vest, H&M jean jacket, last minute chopped white tank, blue tights with white polka-dots and blue thigh high flat boots.

Wearing all that blue made me feel far from blue. Though the picture below would suggest otherwise.

Denim

Silver Purple

Another tribute to DENIM.

So much to say about denim. It goes with anything. It can be mismatched if done right. It's got the cozy factor. And well, it's just darn cute.

I love this H&M top, the sleeves have awesome button detail that doesn't show in the pic. Just trust! Worn with my Yves Saint Laurent purple satin boots found at....brace yourself....Ross. Have I posted this before? Probably. It was a crowning achievment. Worthy of duplicate postings.

*Edit: I quickly posted this before getting out all I wanted to say about denim. Um, basically....thank you H&M for fully stocking this trend!

Donkey Kong

Another viejo.

Gotta give a shot out to my 7th grade jeans. Wide-legged. High waisted. Stone-washed. And the clincher: Loco pocket detail. My sister and I shared these for a while, she finally gave them back to me. We had a similar pair that had a more bell-bottom feel. Their location remains a mystery.

The Disaster Formerly Known as My Computer

Since I haven't had time to delete files on the 'ol computer, I'm resorting to posting old photos. You know what they say, desperate times...

I don't even remember what I did this night, Bossa Nova
with Mike perchance?

Stuffed Computer :(

(Nina Pandolfo)

I finally overloaded my computer with rubbish and now can't upload my most recent faux toes. So, no new wannabe-fashionista blog posts. At least not until I can find the time to delete hundreds of free style one-hit wonder hits.

You Make Everythang, Groovay

The OTKs have arrived people! Sure I'm late in the game, but give me a break, it's never too late for Oh Tee Kayzzzzzzz! Thank you mother for an ab fab xmas gift.

This was my first time sporting them. It took me forever to get around to buying suede protector and then it was raining like cray-zay so I couldn't take them outside to apply the suede protector...and blah blah blah.

Mike and I went to relax and read at a coffee shop and we stumbled across this awesome Where the Wild Things Are mural. Still haven't seen the flick....will have to rent on vid. But the soundtrack is too cute. Oh that Karen O!

Coffee Shoppers

I didn't buy it at Ross!

These were taken on a Friday night when we had no plans and then we suddenly had some and I had all of five minutes to get ready. Quickly threw this crap on, went out to dinner......and then after eating we decided that staying in and relaxing was way more appealing. This outfit didn't get to live for very long. I'm ok with that.....for some reason, I just wasn't feeling it.

Usually when I stop and think about where I bought what I'm wearing, Ross comes up for at least two pieces. This outfit doesn't contain a single piece from Ross. Mystery of disgust solved?
