Excitement!!!

It all started in 2008, with Youth Novels her sweet voice and simple lyrics gave my ears serenity.

Her Music was like my virus effecting every inch of me. Her lyrics were like my life scriptures, getting me through the day. the soundtrack to my life if you may say. But know Lykke Li has grace the world with another album coming soon. This Album has more stronger lyrics. She said she wanted to show the world " pussy power" that female can have a strong present on stage ; throwing things and being topless.

I cant' wait for her new album to come out! Its going to be amazing!! I hope at one of her shows she throw jack Daniels at me again :]

The classics and Throw Backs

The Cosby Sweater

Bill  made America care about Jello Pudding fun again and these geometric pattern sweaters are making their way back into to American closets. Great things about these fuzzy bad boys is there easy to find for under $10. I can't put these sweaters on with out laughing there cute but i believe i will laugh when i see picture of myself looking like a geometry text book.

Oxford Flats

I swear..I swear..I swear I loved these shoes long before they were one everyone manicured toes. If you didn't know this from before is i love vintage fashion from 1920's-1970's (I'm not super crazy over the 80's).
These shoes are so cute , the fact that there flat makes me love them even more. I'm not a fan of sneakers, normal flats make my feet smell, and heels doesn't always work with my daily routine. These shoes are comfortable and they can go with many occasions if your going to the park or a job interview.


Bow Tie

I love men in white collared shirts, Black trench coats, and bow ties but i must say us girls can pull this trend off too. I like to wear bow ties with blouses and skirts making me feel like a classic school girl. Plaid bow ties are great with a layered look. Boys a great way to make you bow tie look even better is play around with the 1930's look for a fun way to play it formal. here is a link to show you how to take that old neck tie into a bow tie but you may want to mute it . htt://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ruG-jgVLv20&playnext=1&list=PLF8E4644C63399022&index=3 

Black And White Stripes Shirt
I'm not a little European girl from France but the black and white stripes makes me feel like it. My friend  Is obsessed with stripes. He has a million stripe shirts and he still buys more like all the time. these are a stable in a wardrobe your bread and butter if you may. it a simply accent shirt. Its the kind of shirt you never need to toss out since its always fashionable to wear .

Fringe Bag
Flowers, Head bands, Natural waves and fringe bags the hippies of the  60's  had it all figured out. Either in suede or leather these are a great funky bag to have. I'm a 2nd generation hippie so of course i get happy when I see more and more of these on the streets. I didn't think i would even start seeing fringe vest and purses from forever 21. I like how fashion is an ever repeating cycles. i can always reuse and recycle


Scarfs
Wether your just having a bad hair day, wanting no one to recognize you, or just wanting to look like and old hollywood movie star, scarfs are a great item to have. scarves can be worn in so many ways: the neck or the  head ( like a hood or a head band). Im the lazy type who doesnt want to start the long process of doing my hair so I just put on a cute scarf. I also like getting really long scarf and make a faux turban. of course in this season you need scarves to keep warm or just to be cute of course. i love the cute selection that melrose vintage in whitter california.

These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things

The Turban:
A Turban is a great head dress. It not just for traditional uses in the middle east. It can dress up any out fit. The seasons are changing so why not warm up your fall/ winter wardrobe with an elegant turban forget the old beanies and berets. A turban is the old but new thing to wear. If the full turban isn't for you, just try the turban head band like these>>>

  The Velvet

It maybe the fuzzy feeling the fabric has against your skin but i love this fabric. I remember when I had a pair of navy blue Pj's made out of velvet. I would wear these bad boys all over the house my mother would call them my bear skins. Whatever your velvet memories are about velvet fabric I just want to tell you there back. I was shopping and i began to realize velvet is trying to make a comeback. Its not just for  the mid-evil times anymore . I seen this fabric as cute naval length shirts and as one sleeve dresses.
                                                        







 Horseback Riding Pants
I live very far from the Kentucky Derby but I love the look a nice pair of horse riding pants give. I get tired of seeing the plain old jeans or leggings but these pants give a nice polish appeal. It  has a clean sleek look to them even with a basic tee. I hate that its so hard to find these pants as easy as it is to find skinny jeans for $8 bucks. I have only seen pairs in American Apparel and believe me I know there pricey. The only shopping I do at this store is window shopping. These pants are on my Christmas list, but if you have the cash for them there located at American Apparel for $72.00.


Parachute / Jumper Pants
Ask your mom and dad to borrow there old hammer pants because there back. Maybe not in full force but you can spot them sometimes on the streets. These pants are as comfy as pj's but as fashionable as black skinny jeans. I love I love them. At first I tired thrift store hunting for these pants and I had no luck except at American Apparel for like $80. But recently I found some at Forever 21 for $24.00 so there affordable. I been seeing these pants on alto of lookbooks.  I can't wait for my paycheck I'm gonna get these babies.




Aviator Jacket
These Jackets make me feel so fly like a G6. This is a true classic I believe this jacket is the jacket you will want to wear from years to come, unlike a lot of trends in fashion. This jacket can dress up your simple jeans and T-shirt look. It's so great since it has the bad ass  leather look but in the inside it has the soft feeling like your wearing lamb chop or something ( but faux is the way too go).

High waisted shorts

I love shorts but I hate how i feel so skimpy in them. Since I have a curvy bottom half my shorts  give the boys to much of a free show. With high waisted pants it complements my curves and makes me look more sexy then skimpy.I love wearing these shorts even in November I just wear them with  thick wool stockings, knee high socks, or nice black stocking with patterns.



Over sized Sweater 
Fuck Snuggies. When your in a lazy mood but you gotta go out and about an oversize sweater is your true friend. It can look so simple and comfy but with a pair of stocking or leggings with boots it can look like a cute outfit for quick errands or just for a run on the town. don't spin tons on these just go to your local thrift store or goodwill.

Chapter 5: This Loneliness

Sometimes I feel lost. Like I don't know who the hell I am or what will become of me. I'm Secretly afraid of everything and everyone. I am afraid of waking up ten years from now and wondering were it all went. I'm afraid that each step I take is the wrong one, all the people I love will soon be the ones I hate. Staring upon the unknown but at the same time familiar stars gives me  no comfort. Thinking back to the past puts a smile on my face but drives me closer to insanity. "Its the change" they say, But I have one question When is it coming? I been in this so called transition stage, but when will I take flight? When will it be the next chapter in my life? I'm so young but already feel like I cant go on much longer. No one to hold my hand no one to walk me through it. Solitude only if you can kept me company. I miss the company of this someone ,the joy it brought me, the feeling of trust, Security, and serenity. For now I guess my only friend is this loneliness.

BE.....

Be the incubus of the night crawling your way into my dreams.
Be the ashes of  bliss the absent of light.
Be the wrath in my heart
Be the sorrowfulness in my voice.
Become my vile words
Become my troublesome psyche, just a twisted thought.
Become my bad, my ugly, my everything if you please.

One Year Ago

                                                                                             
              
It was one year ago..
one year ago since the winter breezes brought me warmth.
one year ago since the crinkle on my nose was a sign of beauty.
one year ago since your voice was my serenity.
one year ago since I had someone as sweet as you.
one hell of a year..
