Spring into a New Do'

With the new season approaching, I'm feeling the need to give myself a make-over. && this make-over will first consist of a new do'. If you know me, you know that I am the most scissor-happy chick around. I cut my hair, I let it grow, only to cut it again & of course miss it lol.

I've been wanting to get this look that you see on model Tao Okamoto for a minute now and sooner than later, I'll be going for it. I love the way it frames her face & I know it'll look cute because I had something a lil' bit similar, though shorter, last summer but those bangs...I need!

I'm gonna cut it and rock my natural color [which is now dark brown] for a bit but that's gonna change a few weeks in. It'll be a bit drastic for me, seeing as though I'm either a deep brown/jet black kinda girl but I've fully thought this out & I'm pretty sold.

Can't wait for you to see!

..::Look of the Day::..

I love this look, there's just something so necessary about an all black ensemble.
& besides my obsession with her pants [ii must get a pair!] I think I chose her look because it's such a reflection of my style.

I'm one who would at one point where heels only when it was imperative. [basically when my outfit called for nothing else] & don't even get started w. dresses.

Now, I can't get enough of heels and will still only do a dress when it is necessary or if I can dress it down. :/

I often find it hard to define my style being as though it's a mix up of looks, usually depending on how I'm feeling. The most consistent thing about it is that...it's most often a relaxed but chic look.[however I don't think 'relaxed chic' should sum up the whole thing lol]

ANYWHO...I'd wear the hell out of this outfit. It isn't doing much but enough.

I <333333!

..::SNAPS::..

Afraid to express her self
& be exposed
Though she wears her heart on the sleeve of all of her clothes
With hope that none of her feelings will ever show
She’s angry, she’s upset.
& on herself, she just told
With no regret, she’s done things cause’ at the time she was bold
But now regrets, those done things
A warm heart is now cold
& closed
It may still be in business if in her brain, her feelings were enclosed
But like most love shows
The brain isn’t the star until the big heart is broken
&.. it’s forced to take the role while the sad heart is choking
It’s hoping that its performance is potent
Enough that someone will notice & think…
“The combination of head & heart is dopeness”
Before they think to stroke this
I’m refusing to hope less.

I don't do 'running in heels'..

...but I might've done so to land a spot on The Style Network's new reality show.

It's called "Running in Heels" and if you've seen the CW11's show Stylista, you should pretty much have a clear conception of what it's about. Just as Stylista, it's a magazine focused reality show for the fashionable, pertaining to interns who move to the city and grind for a position w. a publication, which in this case is Marie Claire.

From this show, I'm expecting loads of drama. It seems that interning for a fashion magazine is hell. I mean, that's how it's been depicted in Stylista, The Devil Wears Prada [poor Andy] and [kinda but not really] in several episodes of The Hills. The best part about it all is that in the end, it's soo worth it. You go through the works to maintain your position and out of nowhere you're in a much higher position, w. car service and company cards..and finally someone is fetching YOUR Starbucks delight [soy chai for me :)].

I wasn't even aware that the show was being put together. I would've loved to audition. The experience would be crazy as well as the exposure [you'd wanna be seen too...so don't even]. Watching me under pressure? Comedy. I of course wouldn't find it funny but I assume the world would.

If you're interested in running along with the chosen 3...it airs tonight at 8/7c.

::sidebar:: "Life in the Fab Lane" is showing at 10. Has anyone been following? [prolly not lol but if so...how good is it?]

Ray Tintori [continued..]

So, according to the info that I’ve gathered on Mr.Ray, I’ve concluded that he’s a 24 y.o. from Brooklyn who got his start by directing “Death to the Tinman”, his undergraduate thesis film for Wesleyan University’s Film Studies Program.
[First of all, who the hell would’ve thought he’d be that young and soo close to home?!]
Proceeding…
He is said to still reside in The Big City where he is writing his next film as well as scripts for several major motion pictures. && as we already know, he is also directing music videos for pop groups like MGMT, Chairlift [as mentioned in a previous post] and he’s done business w. The Cool Kids for “Delivery Man”.

I plan to follow his work, he's seems pretty dope to me.

Can you say the same?

Today is only March 1st but shoot, I'm excited!

Soon, I can say goodbye to my winter coat, bid farewell to my Uggs and embrace the beautiful spring weather && fashion.

We have exactly 20 days until it's officially spring and I cannot wait.

With a passion, I despise the bitterness of winter and I'm truly loving spring because I plan to take a cute lil' vacation sometime during the warmer months and it's arrival only means I'm getting closer to my dreams [at last!]

I was thinking Puerto Rico, I've never been to Florida either..smh I'm probably the only one who hasn't..but it's all good. All I know is, I'll be somewhere for at least a week.

What are your warm weather plans? [I know I'm not the only one making a list]

Ray Tintori

Welcome to Heartbreak is a dope song but the video is pretty crazy. I've never heard anything about Ray Tintori prior to this video. I watched a video that he directed for Chairlift a few minutes ago and I'm very interested in knowing how the heck he's doing it. I've seen great work by many video directors but nothing as bomb as this.

Enjoy the vid [if you haven't already] as I continue my research!

I'm writing this w. one eye open. [grrrr]

I swear, I could kill Optimum cable right now. {& you can tell em' I said it...ioncare! lol}

I'm in my bed..completely [ZzZzZz'd]..when I'm awakened by the sound of someone pressing my annoying a** doorbell over & over & over. [ugh!] I ignored it once, I'm saying it's 8:30 am. I don't need to see ANYONE that early in the morning, so I'm thinking to myself: Someone made a mistake. The only person coming to see me, was Optimum Cable but @ 5:30...PM.

HA!

I ran off of my bed after peeking through my blinds at the fooly who was soo rudely disturbing the peace....and you won't believe who's on the other side
.......
......
.....
....
...
..
.

OPTIMUM DAMN CABLE.

I mean..they fixed the problem but... REALLY?! why make an appt. if your going to come when you please? I hadn't even brushed my teeth yet. I had to jump str8 out of my bed & run to the door before they left for allll of eternity. & then what if I hadn't been home? My mother would be sure to ruin someone's day/night because she was definitely going ape shit!

So Now...my sleep account is showing -2 hrs, which I am in dire need of. BUT! will not see until later on tonight when I'm struggling to stay up for w.e. it is that I plan to do because there's no way I'm gonna go back to sleep now.

• The Sun is alllllll up in my face!
• There's construction going on outside!
• && I'm finding myself UUUBER excited that I can now sit back [pillow up] with my LAP-top on my freaking lap. I swear I was suffering from the most horrible back pains because this BRAIN from Optimum didn't give me enough cord for my DSL [& refused to do so..when I complained] so I was forced to sit at the foot of my bed [hunched over!]

sigh.

Hope Your Life's Great lol.
I'm going to destroy my fridge now [starving!]

ttys!
