I haven't made an update in a while, and I will make a legit one soon, but ...

sometimes, I drool over clothes. I mean, thinking about them. Not, like, drool onto them.

Season Inappropriate

I was going to bid on this cute vintage preppy dress on ebay going for only $9.99, but then realized that it was a summer-specific dress, and would probably have to wait 9 months to wear it. That or move to Guam.

I'm looking for an ivory/beige/off-white lacey dress (like a slip, but not as thin). One that's wispy and delicate, but not a creepy Victorian era one that reminds me of dead people in The Others. I'll probably find it on Urban, and then hate myself for wanting and eventually buying it.

A classmate told me she loved my look, and that it was very "sexy grunge, not ugly grunge ... well-fitted, redefined grunge," which made me super happy because that's EXACTLY the look I'm going for these days. That or "too busy to give a shit and thus sloppy and fucked up."

oh, damn.

i am actually kinda diggin' some of this stuff:

WANT. (!!!!!)

WANT.

WANT.

from peeps.org. and it's so cheap! and also seems to benefit charities! O_O
(not to mention the pieces are nicely shot, and are modeled by women whose diets appear to consist of more than decaf soy lattes and Parliament Lights.)
