passages

I hadn't yet discovered that I
lived in a sort of transparent balloon, drifting over the world without
making much contact with it, and that the people I knew appeared to
me at a different angle from the one at which they appeared to them-
selves; and that the reverse was also true. I was smaller to others,
up there in my balloon, than I was to myself. I was also blurrier.

I bought makeshift items at thrift stores in each
new location and sold them when I left. I had no tableware. Now
and then I'd indulge myself in a frill - a vulgar colourful vase. a
flea-market curio. I acquired a carved wooden hand holding a sort
of chalice with the words Souvenir of Pitcairn Island on it. I splurged
on a Thirties perfume bottle minus the stopper.
The objects I chose were designed to hold something, but I
didn't fill them up. They remained empty. They were little symbolic
shrines to thirst.

Both excerpts from "Moral Disorder" by Margaret Atwood. She's genius.

You've got to be responsible for your own happiness - you
can't expect it to come flopping through your door like a parcel.
You've got to be practical in these matters. People sit at home
thinking Some Day My Prince Will Come. But that's no good
unless you've got a sign up saying Princes Welcome Here.

Above excerpt from "Talking it Over" by Julian Barnes.

fresh


Awhile back I expressed interest in chopping off my hair and going bleach blonde. Done and done my friends. The photo doesnt do it justice colour wise, but you get the idea. I love it. I definitely needed a change.

Oh how I wish Isabel Marant would deck me out in her goods head to toe, then I'd be off to the Versace x H&M show. Dream.

will i ever learn?


Sorry lovelies for the lack of posts lately! School has gotten busy and in the same day I got rear-ended and my car broke down. However, life happens. So to take my mind off the matters at hand, I am just going to distract myself with some material items. I am planning on picking up some lipstick from MAC tomorrow. I am thinking either red, fushia, or berry. Well, that narrows it down, but I'll update tomorrow with what I find. Nonetheless, retail therapy anyone? Actually, I recently took a Cosmo quiz and the result? Very very suiting...

all blak everything



Just putting this out there right now. The above pieces are freakin' gorgeous (both Alexandra Blak) and although I cherish my skills to find cool stuff, I also despise it because it means I spend money...
Copper is the new rose gold people! Well at least I am saying so.

and the summer countdown begins






I am kidding because I actually love fall and winter more than summer. But this jewellry is so tighttt I probably could give up a cold season just to be able to bust these pieces out. Then again, the only thing holding me back from doing so is me. So, please no judgement when underneath my thick grey infinity scarf that goes up to my ears you see a little neon niceness poppin out. Beauutiful right? Go to her website to see more AMAZING pieces and tell me you are on the choker train this season, because really who isn't?
