so i’m re-doing my last post

i’ve added on a moschino zipper cardigan that i think alexander wang would approve of and boots that have not been worn every winter for the last two years (and were a $25.05 steal)

i mean.. everyone is more than welcome to send me the prada version of these boots that are on sale at barney’s right now.

so it’s black friday… i don’t think i like the idea of going to the mall today.

alexander wang is my constant inpiration this season without a doubt. this is the closest thing to love i’ve ever had i swear.
i’m really the last person in the world to wear a tight mini skirt or anything bandage-y since i’m always afraid of looking too waif-y but i couldn’t resist the urge anymore. the AA bandeu pencil dress was the closest thing i could find to match alex’s tulip skirt. i tried to use my circle scarf for it but it was win in the front and fail in the back. i’m also wearing an AA recycled acrylic beanie but you can’t really see it here. and socks with my boots. and a really big run in my tights. i should invest in a better camera… upgrade d40 -> d300.
i WISH.

i’m so in love with my american apparel circle scarf. ian was kind enough to take the last black one off the mannequin for me and the girl at the register was kind enough to give me my employee discount!

i’m going for the lanvin f/w 07 look here with the bare legs, black dress, and obvious lanvin shoes.

i went shopping in this outfit today with a couple friends and we walked into Ed HaRdY for the lols and i blurted out “OMG IT EVEN SMELLS TRASHY IN HERE. WAIT. AM I AT L.A. FASHION WEEK?”. i’m sure the employees there were thinking “what is that crazy goth bitch talking about”. i also went to barneys and stared at the new jil sander shoes and drooled everywhere. they’re so beautiful. the dark, bent lucite heel is genius. everyone should pitch in and buy me a pair i’m serious i really think i need them. but my next purchase is probably going to be a furla bag that i saw at nordstroms today. it’s perfect and $345, which is still out of my current spending range but definitely worthy.

i REALLY need to get my hair colored wtf i’m sorry for this eyesore.

my next update should be soon for what i wore on election night and to spill beer all over my blackberry and ipod :(
oh yeah, i should do a halloween post.. but.. some random girl took the pictures and my friends and i don’t know who she is so those are kind of lost forever.

it’s been a year and i’m still obsessed with this photo.
i don’t even like ali.

but hello, new go-to/fail-proof fall outfit.

i really need to take a shower. this is me testing out the 7/8ths crop pants but with really old jeans. like, first pair of skinny jeans i ever bought old. i’ve gained weight so i was hoping these bad boys would fit me better, but alas, forever 21 denim quality sucks/sucked. they’ve gotten better, i think. i picked up a pair of dark grey skinnies from there a month ago and they are pretty nice, but i don’t understand why there’s polyester in them. i actually thought about buying a pair of heels from there but the thought of horrible quality heels made me want to cry but they were really cute so i might just break down and get them.

are fedoras over yet? i hear bowlers are in now but i really don’t think i can do it without constantly having charlie chapman on my mind and how ridiculous he looks.
and..
are leather bomber jackets over yet? i just got one and i feel like it’s already dated. why do i do this to myself. i need to never go to the mall bored again.

i think this looks kind of super hipster but i’m pretty sure i’m not too worried about it. everyone needs to get a shade of dark red lipstick for fall. i transitioned from MAC RED to DIVA last night and i loooove it. mac is kind of my hero, and a lot cheaper than nars. i’m down with that. ALSO, get purple nail polish. mmmmmmmm.

excuse the pale legs. i don’t mean to.
this outfit is inspired from looking at too many new york fashion week street photos.
