#55: thoughts and things



Love this chalk board wall...

So in order to give my little mind a break from the logical annoying bits that one has to deal with in life, I left my responsible internet chore work for something way more fun! Yes, Closet research :) Hope you find yourself taking a break too as you look at these few simple ideas.



Man... isn't this a cool little way to spice up the white blazer and worn in jean look?!  I wonder if there could be some non-tacky way to re-create this outer wear and make something similar without it looking home made?! Normally I would say tears/rips, on the back side, not to classy... but these... well... I like em!  Its probably b/c the jean is a looser fit, and light colored.  Hmmm... may need to think about making my own version somehow.



Emmanuelle Alt. I have blogged about this chic before... but saw this picture and was reminded about what amazing style she has!  So easy, chic, and simple... classic! But yet so "up-to-date" hip.  Love her!

Yes, I had added her to my list... of style icon love...

what my brain feels like today.

reminding me to keep up the art side of life :)

ok... I know, I know... I keep finding and being drawn to spring and summer looks right now, instead of finding winter ideas for you and myself, but fashion designers are already doing their fall 2012 shows, so come on... It can't be such a bad idea right?!

One could definitely get this look from almost any source...




ok... back to the chore stuff...

#53: I'm bringin...somthin back...woop!

Hi all!  I'm so happy to be writing on mi bloggity blog!  I've missed it!  And your sweet little notes!  I've been busy away at school and looovvveeeing it!

I haven't had much time to goodwill, or put together interesting compilations of clothes, (partly because all I can wear now is black, and partly because my brain is on other things, such as hair... I know...) But I still love finding little bits of inspiration and compilation ideas!! Even if I can't put them together myself at the time.

I'm craving spring time right now. Partly because its so bloody cold right now, and partly because, this is the time of year when I get really sick of covering up an outfit with as many layers as possible just so I feel as though I won't die by frost bite.

I love this little look... so much.  I can't wait to wear the little white skirt that I have, and find a little top like this.  Very simple and easy to put together, so long as you can find just the right pieces.  Thats what takes it from ordinary "gap" to fabulously simple and chic. Pinned Image

This little art piece reminds me of taking design or drawing class with one of my art professors during my undergrad.


This path makes me want to wear a straw fedora, sexy, low, white button up shirt and your best rolled up favorite pair of boyfriend jeans.  I know right?! Makes you want 78 degree weather!  


Always good.

So I've just started school yesterday!  Eeeek!  I little crazy... I'm not used to complete career changes and what it's supposed to feel like.  I am having so much fun already though!  I feel a bit old since most of the gals around me are around 18-19 years old, but there are a few that are around my ripe old age :)

Since I don't get internet at my home anymore, its to the cafe I go to get online, study and of course blab away on here!!

This week is all about shampoo's, head massages, and haircuts!  I'll be cutting on hair tomorrow already!  Eeek! (again).  I am a little nervous, but only because everything is so new and it feels extremely strange to be back in school again.  But I'm loving it so far.  Wish me luck!
Until next time,

                                                                 +Ciao Friends+

ps- I think this girl has a super cute little pixie face, and love her hair on her.  I may have to try in on one of my mannequin girls:)
