A Birfday Bag!

Well, it's about time I started sharing my obsession with Marc Jacobs again... I am the biggest fan of the cross the body bag- particularly because I usually have at least 5 things in my hands at all times, (jump to: coffee cup, cell phone, sunglasses, hat and or scarf, dog leash?, liquor, and energy bar of sorts, and if i'm feeling real crazy my kindle)- but just your everyday necessities... So, naturally the cross the body bag is a must!
I've recently been stuck between these two....

Oy, Oy, Oy.. It's just so fun and camel and leather, oh and is that a red stripe I see? Not only is that my favorite beer, but it just adds that perfect pop of color!!

But this ones sooo cute too!! I mean, virtually they're the same bag, but this one is LEATHER and I LOVE LEATHER! I think this one may be the winner....

I've been sending these to my boyfriend in hopes that he'll finally get a hint and get me one for my upcoming birthday in a month- however after he saw them he simply asked if I would actually spend $300 on a bag. So clearly we have bigger issues on our hands- maybe the fact that he has no idea the type of person I am.. Oh man, now I'm reevaluating our relationship all because I wanted him to think he picked out the perfect gift for me when secretly I picked it out myself..... this plan has seriously started to backfire.

Help, Girl Lost in European Coat Frenzy !!

So now that my passport is finally in the mail, it's looking a little more promising that I'll be studying abroad in January... so naturally i've started looking for the perfect jacket that screams "I'm an American in Europe but don't want you to know I'm an American so come ravish me Italian men".... or something like that? I just snagged this wonderful coat from Free People (which by the way I would HIGHLY recommend shopping at for ANYTHING and EVERYTHING you need for fall because it is ALL superfly and I want it all, so you can send your donations to aleone24@gmail.com, thanks.)

So cute, I know.. But how could I possibly wear this jacket without that WONDERFUL hat? That's just it, I CAN'T! So, now i'll be heading back to the Free People website (after I receive your donations of course).

And then as I was reading the amazingly terrible US magazine with Lauren Conrad on the cover explaining how she "got her revenge!" on MTV and all of her fake best friends (which, I don't understand what the hell she has to complain about, and what she could really have against MTV when they made her rich, famous, kind of prettier and portrayed her to be a little less boring than we all know she really is) when I found a jacket that made me think, hey, did I go wrong with my perfect European purchase ^^ ??

Now, I have NEVER... EVER shopped for clothing from Victoria's Secret- but I think I should start? I'm really obsessed with this jacket, and now I feel like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.  I can just imagine myself parading around Paris on a weekend getaway- with a coffee and cigarette and little hat and leather gloves and my Chie Mihara grey suede shoes! oy, I just got so excited- enough of this. (It's also on sale for $129, which makes it THAT much more appealing)

Now, I need your help- which one should I return, keep, or purchase?? 

(PLEASE SAY KEEP BOTH, PLEASE SAY KEEP BOTH)

I'm Just So Confused...

I guess I can try and start on a nice note. Umm, Katy Perry's hair looked kinda cute?

 

Ugh, I can't even say that... I don't want to lie to you guys and have you thinking that it's okay to walk around looking like you've just streamed your hair with cotton candy... or possibly silly string?

But enough of that, I'm feeling a little sick looking at this picture and need to make this as quick as possible before I ruin my computer with vomit.  I thought that Bjork did the whole- I'm wearing a dead swan as a dress- thing back in 2001?? Oh, that's right, SHE DID and everyone hated it then, just as much as they do now.  Except as I continue to look at it, I realize that she's not only wearing a semi dead swan, but she has somehow managed to make her outfit look like a figure skater got raped by a burly biker with tats and this mistake came out.

Seriously, I understand that you're marrying the newly incarcerated Russell Brand- but if anything, that makes you more of a joke than you already are.

Get it together, and fast- I'm sick of this shit.

Boots Boots and more Boots!!

Soooo I am the last person to shop at Steve Madden or Aldo Shoes because, as we all know, they rip off EVERYTHING from actual talented designers... However, Mama needs some new boots, and by Mama I mean me, and by me, I mean broke ass college student- sooo I just got these because they are reasonably priced, and ummm, kinda cute!

$70 from Aldo ain't too shabby- not to mention I'll look so badass in these.

Now on to the good stuff.

Ohmygod. How killer?

Dear Stuart Weitzman, I want these I need these ooh baby ohhh baby.  These are just the sexiest and probably most dangerous shoe I've ever seen in my life- and will be a main staple of my wardrobe for the next 3 to 4 months.  They're so naughty school girl meets naughty school teacher.  Ahhh I can't want to run around like a little prostitot in these and make my mom proud!

Street corner, here I come!!

Paisley and Plaid... Come On People.

So I'm at the bank and there is this absolutelydropdeadgorgeous Asian woman standing in front of me.. She has these amazing Brian Atwood nude shoes on, that make her already beautiful legs look like a foot longer....

Then my eyes gaze up, I drop out of my lesbian moment and realize what she is actually wearing.....

Tommy Hilfiger plaid shorts, a skanky white lace top, with an orange paisley sweater over it.  My bed sheets are paisley.... Now, if you have the money and savvy t be strutting around town in the middle of the afternoon in a pair of Brian Atwood shoes, then you certainly can afford to dress yourself properly- so go get your head out of your ass, throw a pair of cropped jeans on with a silk blouse and stop looking like a damn fool. 

Oh, and don't even get me started on that bag.

Chunky Necklaces....? YES PLEASE!

I love having pretty friends who like to party and know how to dress well- those three characteristics in a girl are very difficult to come by, but since I'm such a lucky girl I have two friends who can check all THREE of those things off!

Je Love? Thank you for purchasing this, I'll be borrowing it in exactly 24 hours while I'm getting ready for another night of embarrassing escapades.  But seriously, I could be falling on my face and it WOULDN'T MATTER because I'd have this necklace on and everyone would be too distracted by how cool it is to even notice that my elbows are bleeding.  This mystical magical chain heaven was paired (and quite well might I add) with a deep V bodysuit (and we all know how much I love me a bodysuit) that was totally open and totally sexcellent in the back. Good work girlfriend.

Oh and what's this you ask yourself? (other than a whole lotta boob... sorry) Another wonderful necklace that I can't wait to wear and run around and pretend I'm a princess! Now this is some BLING, AND I LIKE IT.  Jewelry like this makes me feel like a mix between P Diddy and Cinderella- pimp, yet classy... and what's wrong with that? Nothing.

What I find truly most astonishing about BOTH of these necklaces is that they are from J CREW... Your jaw just dropped, right? I know, my reaction exactly.  

Who knew that the Crew had it in em!

Oh Hello...

This is a beautifulperfectamazingfantastical Stuart Weitzman shoe in which comfort DOES NOT matter... For reals, I would make sweet sweet love to these shoes all day long, if that wasn't weird or anything.  What's wrong with them? Oh, nothing. They're leather, scaled, have laces and a peep toe.. now if you don't already own a shoe with all of the above (which I totally understand if you don't because the chances that you just checked everything on that list off is slim to none) I must INSIST that you go out right now, yes, RIGHT THIS INSTANT, and get yourself a pair- and if you can't go out and buy a pair right now because it is past 7 PM and most stores generally close at that house, go on Zappos.com and find a pair and order it.

That whore of a mother of mine just purchased these and made the HUGE mistake of gloating and sending me an email with these attached... I can just imagine her giggling over her blackberry thinking that she's rubbing it in that they're HERS and not MINE- but hello, we're the same size and yes, I will steal them.

Naval Action

Okay, I understand that the state of Connecticut currently thinks that it is ACTUALLY located upon the equator, however it is not and I think it needs a serious reality check because I can no longer sit in my non-air conditioned bedroom, with a fan in my face and sweat dripping from my body.  However, just because this weather is absolutely intolerable and disgusting DOES NOT mean it is appropriate in anyway to wear a belly shirt to class- with booty shorts to boot.

Said belly shirt is meant for da club, not da class.
