A pair of star-crossed lovers....

PhotobucketPhotobucket
In English we have embarked on reading the Shakespearean classic Romeo&Juliet.It's been quite amusing to see my fellow classmates romp around the room, plastic swords in hand,clumsily reciting the poetic lines of the tragic romance of the two star-crossed lovers.I'm trying to draw inspiration out of the tale but this is the unfortunate result, its not at all what i imagined!so as i continue to wrestle around with the idea and trash my closet i leave you with this...

Stay awesome!

80's Prom Queen




This happens to be my most prized THRIFT STORE FIND of the last couple of months. When purchased it had sleeves but being Me it was all ready destined to get altered. So far i have gotten to where it twice, once as a 80's Zombie then as a 80's Vampire at prom. Oh what makeup,fake blood,& fangs can do! Although it was ment to be purely a halloween costume it just might find it's self at my next formal dance.


Nor' Easter

I do not get wasted,drunk,hammered or smashed. Like a lady, i simply get tipsy in the most sophisticated manner. KIDDING IM ABOVE THE INFLUENCE! i just couldn't resist using this Calfornia Merlot(housewarming gift from years ago) as a prop. After spending 2 days stuck in your house becuase of major flooding you'd probably resort to taking miscellaneous pictures in your not so well lit living room too.
Until next time, which may be very soon...

Booties are Out?! =O

According to teenvouge.com booties are out! I can't believe it, well actually I can, seeing that I'm usually behind on trends, but booties really?! Well I just bought these Suede & Grey booties from Charlotte Russe and I'm just going to have to be "last season". Teenvouge how could you? I look to you for your style expertise and you take away my booties! After getting over that shocker i have the task of actually learning how to walk in these dream boats. After several hours of wearing out my carpet with strides across my room my mom made me aware of some important information. The linoleum tiled flooring of school doesn't compare at all to our carpet. Urgg , her and her motherly wisdom. Well I'm off to practice my strut (in my kitchen) and prepare for school. In the mean time...


Stay Awesome,

Fall 09 Trends

For the most part i stay away from trends because for one i cant afford to keep up 'one day it's in the next day it's out' (that sounds framiliar) the other reason is that i try so hard to be unique with my look and being trendy can start to look like being a Fashion Clone but i recently realized that you can wear the trendy things but combine your own style & mix it up so your diffrent from the rest without being "last season".

The Purpose

I, V! , am on a mission of the upmost importance. My mission: Fashion. My objective: Get Over the Fear. Through out my years of schooling my wardrobe has been tamed by my pupils. Until now I haven’t had the courage to wear the daring, the nerve to attempt the unheard of. Ridiculing comments tormenting me with every “too bright” legging or patterned pant I wore. I admit some misfortune took place on my part; truthfully some things just don’t look good but the domesticating of my fashion, my soul, that’s pushing it too far. I declare this year will be different, my entry into the hormone injected, class obsessed, teenage hell, better known as, high school has lead me to test myself. Can I fully embrace my budding fashion capability? Well I’m going to attempt this great feat and I have confidence in a successful outcome.
I wish the same confidence could be found in the minds of everyone. Little do they know their lack of support just gives me even more fuel to prove everyone wrong! Upon many painstaking hours of thought I have gained my Inspiration for my look. Before I share that bit of info I would just like to say I know you shouldn’t try to copy a “look” and I have no interest in doing so, I’m simply just getting an idea of what I’m going for. Believe me direction is needed for someone as… day dreamy as me. Okay, as I was saying, I’m thinking Vintage like Coco Chanel. Why Chanel? Well I love pearls, cardigans, brooches, lace, scarves, and bows. Correction, HUGE bows! Kind of old lady, I know, but Chanel encompasses everything I love yet updated and timeless. Tres,chic.
Creating this blog is a way for me to document my progress in embracing my personal stlye and give me something to look forward to and also to give purpose to my life which is for the most part, painfully dull and dreadfully ordinary. If I act exceptionally out of character I will update it every week if not any time I can, sorry in advance. But I don’t even no if it matters, if your reading this your probably lost, or i made you look at it, or your bored and not even really interested in my thoughts. But I’ll continue to write and dream. Photos are to come. That’s it for now… wait FOLLOW ME! Okay have a great morning, evening, and/or night.
