Mood 13

Well, the most bi-polar immune system award goes to: me!
I've been sick nearly half of year 2011 and now that it's about the end, instead of ending on a healthy, high note, it seems as though I will be spending most of my time in the bed.


But, now that my whining is all done. Time to get puhrettey (pretty). 


I was stuck in bed watching Skins ..UK of course and fell in love with Cassie, again, and decided to copy her style. But I put my own little twist to it and my outfit for the day ended up looking more boho/gypsy:

AGATA POSPIESZYNSKA

Who: A photographer. I don't know much about her but I believe she is from Poland. Subjects of her lens include the lovely ladies Lindsey Wixson, Karlie Kloss, Abbey Lee Kershaw, and much more beloved models. I remember absolutely loving her behind-the-scenes shots of Stella McCartney and Sonia Rykiel spring 2011 shows. 



These are just a few of the photos from the shows that I had saved. I at the time said, "incredible stills and captures" and moved on. But, cleaning out my stash of photos the other day, I luckily stumbled upon these and decided to re-investigate. I have been in front of my computer for an hour or two just searching Agata's photographs and I am completely mesmerized and enchanted. 

I don't know much about photography but I do know that it takes a whole lot of talent to capture a moment as brilliantly as Agata and to convey such a range of emotions with a single photo. 

I wish I knew more about the art of photography to speak more about her work but I am simply not as intelligent or well-versed in that field. So, I can only hope that my simple words of utter awe and reverence for this fine lady will spark an interest and anticipation for her work and a certain admiration and respect for photographers.

Today was a very busy day. Kind of. I had to do a bunch of errands and run around trying to get things together for New Year's Eve and some other events going on early Jan. Bleh. But, I got to have an amazing breakfast with my cousin and mama (: I had yummy banana pancakes that I forgot to take a picture of but think: fucking delicious shit packed in tiny circles. Yup.

Mood 11


Today was cold. Very very cold. I had forgotten it was winter and wore very light clothing out today. Sigh, the stupidity of a college student back at home for winter break. 


But, I looked very lady-like and like a girl for once and I am proud of it. My inspirations? Marc Jacobs and the ultimate sex bomb/icon: Brigitte Bardot. (; fun stuff.

Mood 10

Of course I get sick during the holidays. Typical. I hope everyone is enjoying themselves(: 
I found this image quite fitting for today's "holiday special" 


Cute, eh?
Well. I went to the mall about 10 times and gave up looking for gifts for other people around the 4th visit and then decided to do just whatever the next 6 visits. Very productive. So what did I end up with? Crappy gifts but very sincere letters, which I personally think is much better. But, you know. 

Any holiday wishes that came true? I'm pretty sure I asked for this every chance I could all throughout middle school: 


Funny how things change.... 

Once again, Happy Holidays(:

Mood 9


It's only 5PM and it looks like it's 11PM...one of the MAJOR downfalls of winter. But it is almost Christmas (: weeeee! so excited. I am anticipating ZERO gifts since I did a lot of retail-therapy during my first semester at correge. But that's ok. Today, I researched internships ..bleh. Worked out, went to the bookstore and came back to make more Christmas gifts. I have made 4 paintings and 2 bracelets. I just have 2 more bracelets and three more paintings to go! Fun fun fun.
