why yes, the end of the universe was rather interesting, thank you for asking.







I'm baaaack.
And so, I thought, what better way to celebrate than to provide a condensed picture-story of how my fashion/hair has progressed.
The pink was the result of a brief bout of immense boredom.
Now I sport blunt bangs, and walk around sans glasses.
Contacts just make life so much easier, and now I have one more accessory to play around with.
SUNGLASSES. Oh yum.

I'd like to say I will be starting to post frequently again.
But who knows.
I work almost non-stop, and I've been so darned frustrated with my clothes as of late.
So we'll see.

Ciao bellas.

glitter mixed with a little bit of rock & roll







i realize that these pictures just scream "myspace",
but i was so in love with these boots that i simply had to have an in-room, unplanned photo shoot right then & there.
as an added bonus, there's even a story attached to these boots.
&i adore being able to tell it everytime someone asks about these heavy-duty beauties.

storytime!;
my dear old papa is in the military, & as a young teenager i often complained about his inability to get me a pair of combat boots. i'd long since forgotten about my persistent request, but he hadn't.
when he was home for the holidays, he pulled these out of his closet & said "i know it took me awhile, but i came through!"
&these are even better than the real thing.
they were given to him by a friend who brought them over with her from england in the late 80's, early 90's.
they're so deliciously brit-punk.

£70-£100.

ch-ch-ch-ch-changes







i got my hurr did over the xmas break.
bye-bye ginger, hello natural hair colour!
the plus side; no more roots & no more getting kicked on 'kick a ginger day'. : )
downside; gingers really do have the most fun & vibrant hair excites me. : (

p.s.
formal dress-age due to my old high school's winter formal!
haha, yea.
i'm cool.

dress; vintage

ringin' in the new year.



a new year has always meant a time for change,
&as i'm not one for new year's resolutions i tend to focus all that change into my wardrobe.
i forsee many a cozy sweater/cardigans, skinny jeans & high boots, bright colours to make my days less drab & yummy scarves to wrap myself up in.
once again, polyvore has allowed the mish-mash of fashion floating around in my mind to find it's way onto the internet.
