Hard Sun

Dress - F21 / Socks - H&M /  Denim Vest - LF /  Boots - Kelsi Dagger

When I walk beside her

I am a better man

When I look to leave

I always stagger back again

Once I built an ivory tower

So I could worship from above

When I climb down to be set free

She took me in again

There's a big

A big hard sun

Beating on the big people

In a big hard world

- Eddie Vedder

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

Runaway Train

Sweater & Shorts - LF Stores / Sheer Blouse - H&M / Boots - JC Tardies from LF

So tired that I couldn't even sleep
So many secrets I couldn't keep
Promised myself I wouldn't weep
One more promise I couldn't keep

It seems no one can help me now
I'm in too deep
There's no way out
This time I have really led myself astray

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like i should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here no there
- Soul Asylum

I am obsessed with these boots!!
I can not explain that enough... you can literally wear with them with ANYTHING!
I was so use to wearing these shorts during the summer BUT now I'm able to layer them with chunky
sweaters boots and a jacket if I choose =)

Hurt

Plaid Top - UO / Tank - American Apparel / Beanie - LF / Boots - Marc Jacobs

I wear this crown of shit,
Upon my liar's chair,
Full of broken thoughts,
I cannot repair.
Beneath the stains of time,
The feelings disappear.
You are someone else
I am still right here.

What have I become
My sweetest friend?
Everyone I know,
Goes away in the end.
And you could have it all,
My empire of dirt.
I will make you hurt....
- Nine Inch Nails

There is such a homey cozy feeling when you are in the mountains...
It makes you dress warmer.
We found this location by driving thru the mountains and letting ourselves
get lost.... It was the perfect scenery for this outfit!

Doll Parts

Dress - LF / Cardigan - Urban Outfitters / Boots - JC from LF

I am doll eyes

Doll mouth, doll legs

I am doll arms, big veins, dog bait

Yeah, they really want you, they really want you, they really do

Yeah, they really want you, they really want you, but I do too

I want to be the girl with the most cake

I love him so much it just turns to hate

I fake it so real, I am beyond fake

And someday, you will ache like I ache

Someday, you will ache like I ache

- Hole

I have been waiting to wear this dress and I don't know why it took me so long because now I'm already wanting to wear again!

It was one of those magical finds I found at LF.

I wore it to a wedding this past weekend up north in a little town called Occidental.

It was beyond beautiful so I was excited to shoot in a location like this.

It was fun that the wedding was low key and outside, it gave me a reason to pair this delicate dress with my chunky JC Tardies (which I will be living in all fall)!

Manic Monday

All products from Threadsence

Six o'clock already
I was just in the middle of my dream
I was kissin' Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream

But I can't be late
'Cause then I guess I just won't get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made

It's just another manic Monday
I wish it were Sunday
'Cause that's my funday
My I don't have to run day
It's just another manic Monday
- The Bangles

Here are a couple shots from super fun shoot with Threadsence.
I loved all the outfits I was able to wear and can't decide what to get....!
If you click here you can also see my lil interview I did with them too...

Happy Monday!

Low

Dress - Gifted by Shoppalu / Leather Jacket - Matix / White Sweatshirt - Hurley / Belt - Vintage

Boots - Chloe Sevigny x Opening Ceremony / Sunnies - F21

Sometimes I go and walk the street

Behind the green sheet of grass

A million miles below their feet

A million miles, a million miles

I'll be with you girl

Like being low

hey hey hey like being stoned

I'll be with you girl

Like being low

hey hey hey like being stoned

- Cracker

It was a super gloomy day,

so i went with very muted darker colors for this outfit. 

I like layering jackets with one another because I feel it gives the outfit more of a warm fall look.

Maxi dresses are just as great for Fall as they are for summer so I was very happy to receive this awesome olive colored maxi from Shoppalu....

Maxi dresses are so easy to throw on and layer this dress will be one of my go to pieces when I don't want to think to hard!

Running into trouble

running into trouble

you got heavenly eyes

a thousand highs

always on a mission

don't worry for me

i'm just writing

my side of the story

just like jackie

i'm biting my lips

scoring on my mind

with whatever I can find

i'm going down the coast 

to M.E.X.I.C.O see you

- The Kills

Now I wasn't exactly in Mexico but it felt that way as I strolled down LA's famous 

old Olvera St...

It did make me want to plan a trip and visit the real place BUT

 it held me over nice until my real vacay.

Oh and can you believe it's OCTOBER??!!

And I'm wearing shorts!

Rebel Rebel

All clothing - Dainty Hooligan

You've got your mother in a whirl
She's not sure if your a boy or a girl
Hey babe, your hairs alright
Hey babe, lets go out tonight
You like me, and I like it all
We like dancing and we look divine
You love bands when they're playing hard
You want more and you want it fast
They put you down, they say I'm wrong
You tacky thing, you put them on

Rebel rebel, you've torn your dress
Rebel, rebel your face is a mess
Rebel rebel, how could they know?
Hot tramp, I love you so!
- David Bowie
