Ouch



*

"I just got my ear pierced—I went with my little sister who is covered in piercings, she’s super punk rock—to Haight Street in San Francisco just to buy jewelry and I walked out with this piercing. I felt so cool for a day, and then I woke up the next morning and thought, ‘Am I an idiot? Did I really just get a new piercing at 26?’ But now I kind of want to do the other side to match!"

Lovesick Synthetic

*

I just moved to New York... It's been about a week, but only now do I feel like I've finally settled in.
I'm living in SoHo, which is by far one of my favorite neighborhoods (I am, without a doubt, a downtown person... Anything north of 24th feels like another city to me.)

Wow, it's been forever. I truly cannot wait for exams to be over and done with.
So sorry for the slow-down in posting (well, technically all posting has slowed down since I've been at school...), but expect lots more from the blog once finals are over.

So... My half-birthday is coming up in June... In case any of you are into celebrating half-birthdays, these would be... a cool gift.

Day-Glo

When I was little, I used to declare that my favorite color was neon.
Okay, so neon isn't exactly a color on its own, but I was seven and it made sense at the time (I was a true child of the nineties). Jump forward to 2011 and... I'm still enamored with all things acid-toned, day-glo and florescent (further evidence can soon be seen in a post about Ultra), and these bags by The Cambridge Satchel Company certainly appeal to my lifelong obsession with colors that simply do not exist in nature--Plus you can have them monogrammed. Too perfect for words.

Just a 'smidge fascinated/enthralled with this video from New York-based band, New Villager. 
(I feel like there might be some breed of fashion storytelling in the film as well. Well, maybe.)

Ghosts

Thanks Eddie for the heads-up on this!
I absolutely love the soundtrack and the poodle-skirted dream-quality of the film.

One-Off







*

The concept behind Of A Kind is quite simple: Support and promote new designers through one-of-a-kind collaborations that are sold through the site's online shop. I love this idea, and the pieces born out of these collaborations are simply stunning... Definitely take a peek.
