Hotel Yorba

The AP test countdown has officially begun. With less than two weeks until the fateful date, my thoughts have left the 'heady' realm and gone abroad.
Not the most opportune of times, yet i shall certainly try to gain them back via cheesy (yet DELICIOUS) romance novels and these pictures of Gemma Ward in Vogue Espania.
I remain firm: it is okay to live vicariously through another, for Gemma is abroad in body when i can only be in soul.

Take comfort that it's over

ah Sunday, a day for collection, relaxation, and a good read.
unfortunately, i must add hating myself to the list for as of now Sunday is a day of jealousy.
"Jealousy won't get you anything that you lost
Jealousy, it will never be what it was
Jealousy, now I'm afraid of what I've become
Jealousy, it feels like everything's come undone"
--I beg to differ BETH DITTO.

Quietly Cool

Alexander Wang's I want it all Ts.
"I sleep in my T-shirts the night before I wear them, so I've always aimed for that look-when you put it on, it doesn't hug your body, it breathes."
-A. Wang

“I’d like to turn the whole world on… just for a moment.” -Edie Sedgwick

makes my heart sing like nothing before it, I'd sell my soul.

“I dress to kill, but tastefully.” -Freddie Mercury

my official love Abbey Lee in Numero Korea.

when titans collide

two of my favorite things joined force of late, the latest BALMAIN collection and THE KATE MOSS (not a thing i know this).
too many words will only stifle the moment.
SCI-FI IS HUGE.

You can't buy what you can't find what you can't buy

Looking through a telescope
Maybe there's a sign of hope
Leaving everything behind
Discovering your store bought mind

Sending everything to the sea
Wishing you were here by me
Shifting through the mountain of bricks
Searching for a store bought fix

“You don’t eat popcorn during a porno!” -Freaks and Geeks

Nicole Trufino, the brilliant and inspiring judge of everyone's guilty pleasure[shall not name names as i am a member of the guilty party]. the aussie makes me listen, that's all i can say on the matter.

magic touch.

i did not make this,
but it is certainly worth sharing.
girl knows how to work a digit.

epitome of superiority

this is the ultimate coachella ensemb. j'ai besoin de la robe at le chapeau, but that goes without saying.
i am officially on a net exploration to find something too similar for words.
p.s. the girl knows she is better than you.

“Cigarette sales would drop to zero overnight if the warning said "CIGARETTES CONTAIN FAT."”- Dave Barry

be forewarned: i am on an outfit binge. more to come.

Carrie, thanks for the karma.

ACT was today. I am ambivalent: clearly. I did not finish the science section. ahh I just really want a 30 but would be okay with anything above 28.

another day, another dollar

White Stripes-"I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself" starring the Kate Moss and directed by Sofia Coppola. C'est un masterpiece!
its not available on iTunes, so don't try.

although new and potentially unfit, worth considering

countdown until next season.

"Do you have to have a reason for loving?"- Brigitte Bardot

Abbey Lee Kershaw in Vogue Australia's Bardot inspired shoot, And God Created Woman. When i saw this i went out immediately to the downtown barnes & noble to by the 11 dolla mag. There it was: Miss Kershaw on the glinting orange cover in Balmain. I purchased. Unfortunately for me, I did not bother to confirm it was the right month..it was not. what kind of magazine puts a model on the cover one month..without an editorial of her on the inside...and then puts an editorial of her in the next month. it is beyond me.
signed: disappointed and $11 poorer.

fleur-de-la-corps.

so about two posts ago when i said the woman at that cafe was my sole diet inspiration...i lied.
a young kate moss amongst countless bouquets of flowers swooped in and stole the title.

a horse of a different color.

Daisy Lowe and musician boyfriend of Blondelle at the Coachella Festival. I am jealous of everything but the gingy petit copain.

As we drive along this road called life, occasionally a gal will find herself a little lost.

this picture is solely responsible for reaffirming my dieting vows. i need to look like this when it comes time for european cafe lounging circa summer 2010 and this picture will work as my road map. life without carbs doesn't seem so hard after all...

low-bot.

The TopShop staff: dress to the nines, it's working time.

"Mother said I should wear the kimono, we got in quite the fight."

I just got done watching Grey Gardens. While it was amazing, it was mostly tragic.

simon nessman, i kinda like you. ish. you're a little too positive thinking for my affection (i like a little pessimism), but for a male model you don't nauseate me.

“It was more than just a pop…”-Anita Pallenberg

Stella McCartney ads: i love campaigns that capture the ideal mix of whimsy and reality. it is just far fetched enough to make the scenarios truly worth coveting. so, to wrap things up, thank you stella. i now officially need a chiffon floral mini, loose tank, light jeans, a champagne sequined mini, and a dominating white horse.

happy friday

off to le gym in an effort to look like mk by tomorrow.
