Sugar and Spice

I wore a sweet, 50s style house wife dress to brunch with my mom, and a rockstar ensemble to my friend's music video shoot. Both days were super fun! I always enjoy dressing up and going to brunch/shopping with my mom on Sundays. We went to our local favorite, Easy Bistro, and then to TJMaxx for some shopping. The music video was for my friend Mitch and Mikey's band, Opportunities. I played the part of one of a group of girls whose car breaks down, and gets picked up by the guys and taken to a party. It was hilarious! I'll post a link when they release it :) I also did all of the other girls makeup for the shoot, but unfortunately didn't get a good picture of it.

repeating theme

Here is yet another example of me wearing similar clothes a few days in a row. I am not exactly sure why I do this, but it's completely unconscious and quite funny! This outfit felt very Parisian to me, which I love. I didn't wear it for long though, because Chelsea finally did my hair :)

roomie birthday date

I went to see Red Riding Hood, dinner at Mellow Mushroom, and out for drinks with my roommate for her birthday this past weekend. We were celebrating a few days late, and we had lots of strange complications that night, but we ended up having fun! I am usually the designated driver since I don't drink, but I can't drive a manual so a couple of our guy friends had to team up to drive us home! It was quite the adventure.

exeCUTE clothing and worst kept secret!

My friend Mikey designs a wonderful clothing line, exeCUTE clothing, and he released a new shirt a few days ago. We had a super fun photo shoot, and I can't wait until my boyfriend finishes editing the pictures! I wore my new shirt out to my boyfriend's show with his band, Worst Kept Secret, last night. I may be biased, but they were great as always! :)

hearts!

I was in such a sad mood before Valentine's Day, that it took me until the day after to get in the mood to wear a themed outfit. I barely got to do anything in it, but twinsie came over and we made more crazy videos. I got this dress at the thrift store, and cut it off & belted it. Before, it looked like a circus tent!

Happy Chinese New Year!

Yesterday was Chinese New Year (year of the metal rabbit), so my roommate, mom and I went out for Chinese food at PF Changs. It was delicious of course, but I really always wish I was in China town in NYC for the new year celebrations. That was my favorite part when I was in New York! I posed in my picture with one of my many lucky cats (this one was a gift from twinsie), but you couldn't really see him, so I took a close up picture too. I also threw in a pic of me in my pajamas, because I was bored. :)
p.s. My birth year is a fire tiger! Grr!
lucky kitty #11!

Red & Black

I went to visit Jaz at work tonight, along with my mom and roommate. The food was delicious, and twinsie not only gave us free fried green tomatoes, but TWO free desserts! She knows me well. I probably won't be able to fit into this skirt anymore after I eat my leftovers/desserts :)
I felt very inspired by Carrie Bradshaw today, hence the slightly clashing shoes.
