Finals May Make You Ugly, but Winter Break Doesn't

Jacket - Grey Antics
Dress - T by Alexander Wang
Shoes - Pour La Victoire
Necklace - Laura Lombardi

The best part about the holidays... dressing for them. I wore this number for my (ex) work Christmas party and after two weeks of straight studying for finals, I was relieved to actually wear something other than smelly, Fabreeze soaked baggy clothes. I just bought this jacket, even though I have absolutely no money due to my lack of employment, and am currently obsessed with wearing it with everything. One good thing about not having a job and my own money to spend, is I actually have gotten to be more explorative with my existing clothes instead of going and buying something that looks just like what I already have.

Speaking of finals, they almost killed me. Not because they were too hard or I didn't have enough time to complete them, but, rather, I spent far too much time Facebook stalking. I only bring it up because everyone I talk to about finals pretty much has the same issue. I know when I was sitting on my computer with only my name typed on what was supposed to be a near completed 12pg document on women's history and the Feminine Mystique, I was on my Facebook home screen literally watching for new posts to roll in. Not good. Then I came across this article that tells about a way to actually suspend any use appropriately called "Anti-Social." The first step is admitting you have a problem, and the next is taking action! Next quarter I'm quitting my stalking habits cold turkey.

Before the Right One



Sweater - Nastygalvintage.com
Pants - Vintage
Shoes - Doc Marten

My friend Hailey made me buy these snakeskin print pants. They are not something I would normally wear, but for nine bucks, why not? I really love them now and am trying out different pieces with them all the time.


I feel like all the songs I post never actually have music videos. Maybe I will just make a mix to download soon.

Such a Fool



Blazer - Unknown
Shirt - Vintage
Skirt - Vintage
Shoes - Surface to Air

I have been trying to not wear black all the time. It becomes so easy. So now, when I do wear all black, I try to mix it up. Different black materials, faded black as well as pairing it with light lipstick. Don't get me wrong, I love a head to toe black uniform (including black lipstick). I just know I need to change it up sometimes so it doesn't get boring for me or scare the kids in my neighborhood. :DD


This outfit's song is Never Come Back by Kas Product!! Mona's voice is perfection.

Baby, Baby



Coat - Vintage Christian Dior
Top - Club Monaco
Trousers - Vintage
Heels - Modern Vintage

I wore this outfit to an interview the other day. And, I didn't get it! Whaaa! Oh, well. Afterward I cracked two bottles of wine.. so it wasn't that bad of a night!




This live version from the Big D Jamboree is my all time favorite!

We have been getting weird tropical weather here. I don't understand it, but it gives me an excuse to show a little skin (not that I need one).

Lately I have been focusing on how much music really influences my style. So..
