rainy daze

So this past week, the weather has been terrible. Rainy and/or humid every day. That's Virginia weather for you! You never known what to expect. But lately I've felt like I'm in Seattle, and not in a good way. Meh. So all in all, I've felt very uninspired lately. I hate how the weather seems to control my moods.

I went shopping and picked up a few things... nothing spectacular or crazy, just a few nice and versatile pieces.

Target (Mossimo) asymmetrical tee

I am a sucker for white t-shirts. I loved the silhouette of this particular shirt.

I also got a black tulip skirt with these awesome slouchy pockets (also from Target) but I can't seem to find a picture on the website. Boo!

swimsuit from Victoria's Secret

I've finally found the perfect red swimsuit! And it makes my boobs look awesome! The rest of my body is another story, lawl.

I'm hopelessly pale and I don't really tan or even burn. I feel like the red will compliment my skintone. Kind of like this (except I'm not blonde)

I'm kind of glad glad pale is coming back in to fashion (slowly but steadily). As I've gotten older I've started to feel a little less self conscious about my vampire skin.

EDIT:
That above statement kind of comes across wrong. I think all skintones are beautiful, to be honest. I just wish that there was a wider, accepted scheme of colors deemed "beautiful."

"DO YOU GO OUTSIDE?!"

YES, YES I DO.

wishlist

Too bad I'm broke as HAYLL at the moment. Sad face.
I can still dream, can't I?

MinkPink Donna Bustier Dress from Nasty Gal
90s revival! YES YES, this dress is perfection.

We Who See Field Boot from UO.
I love lace up boots. I probably won't be getting any anytime soon now that it's spring :|

Cross-body bags by Katzi from Pixie Market
I already have a slouchy tan cross body bag that I use quite religiously. However, I'd like to add something more structured to my wardrobe.

T by Alexander Wang t-shirt/dress hybrids from La Garconne
Everyone is shitting bricks over this line, and I am no exception. I can see the beauty in a finely made, basic tee. I bet they feel lucious and drape so well. I live in black and white tees... but I don't know if I have enough pride to blow $90 on a t shirt though... Perhaps American Apparel will have to do (not hating here).

Bowler hat from Target
I don't really wear hats much, so that needs to change. However, like the boots, I will probably wait on this. But fo real fo real, this hat needs to get in my closet, asap.

Lastly,

Joseph Gordon Levitt, you are hot sex on a platter. You are on my wishlist indefinitely.

old as dirt...

Temperley for Target jacket/cape, f21 white shirt tuxedo pleat shirt (can't tell in this pic), Lux skinny jeans, vintage scarf, Ray Ban Wayfarers, Urban Outfitters bag & ballet flats

Well, maybe "old as dirt" might be pushing it (2007, hay hay)... But I miss that jacket and scarf dearly.

This set of photos was from freshman year. It's hard to believe I just finished my second year of college.

May First Friday

For those of you not familiar with Richmond shenanigans, First Fridays is when all the local art galleries present their new exhibitions/installations and such.

Target dress, very old but trusty red Urban Outfitters flats, thrifted red purse

My roommate Cosima and somehow ended up turning this into a photo session...
