WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

In order:

1. Tiered dress, stolen out of a dorm donation bin. Originally H&M. Awesome t-shirt Wang-esque material, kind of want to sell it but don't have anything like it.

2. Chocolate for my sadnesses

3. Gold Bond for my sunburn

4. Sum boots I bought on store trade @ Buffalo Exchange. (story) I found a pair of huge chunky wedge Jeffrey Campbells at LF today, and they were probs super expensive, so I didn't buy them, but later I found these for $11.50, and I thought yes.(/story)

5. Strapless dress/beach coverup from Target. Love it. It looks good with my eyes, not so good with the sunburn. Can you see the sunburn? It's bad. Really bad. And Gold Bond smells.

But other than that, summer in NYC is the shiznat.

(thrifted dress, Target bra, grandmother's gifted wrist rosary, hair elastic, brother's--costume--glasses)

My broski (check out his blog, over there on the link list ==>) wore these glasses for the purpose of playing Bernard in Death of a Salesman. They are coming to NYC with me (college roolz) for the purpose of augmenting my expansive glasses collection, sun- or otherwise.

I am a pretentious douchey hipster and I dun care

All thrifted, except for the black hair elastics (Walgreens) and the purple sweater (mom).

Why I like these things:

-Rumi of Fashion Toast is selling this same wrap cuff bracelet for $35 bux, and I got it at an antique store for $3. Woot!

-The cloth cuffs (50 cents each) are actually DIY bracelets made out of ties. I'm considering trying it myself, but I don't know how to attach pearl snaps to things, so for now I'll stick to the ones I bought.

-I feel like a pretentious douchey hipster in this charcoal gray scarf (see above). I even looped it around my neck in the pretentious douchey hipster style. I saw Weezy do this at a concert. It made me question his street cred. Oh well. It's cute and surprisingly warm.

-Navy blue Fayfarers (fake Wayfarers, but you knew that)! Love them. So funky. Forget that I once made fun of a friend for being "super original" in his Ray-Bans. I can be a pretentious douchey hypocritical hipster if I want to.

-Oh, and the sweater's really comfy. It doesn't show in the pictures (damn webcam) but it's a lovely lavender with a nice V-neck. Also, it's a medium and is thus nice and slouchy on me. Just like the real fashion bloggers (I am a fake--I never update and I take shitty pictures.)

The Bella jacket (see below) is treating me rather well too, despite being slightly tight in the arms. Now I just need lots of colors to pair it with. Too bad I only dress in dark neutrals.
