Current mood...

I've been lacking with my posts lately due to my current commitments at interning with a buying company (super valuable experience if that wasn't already obvious).  But I will get back on track ASAP.  Til then...

Feels like...

Monday

While I was in Indy, I had a haircut and dyed my hair 'electric' blue, but as you can tell it came out jet black :/ Also, for a first timer, I loved having fake lashes on! if they weren't so high maintenance, I would still be all over those lashes.  

Here is to Monday and making it a productive week, with the help of Icona Pop, All night.

You say hello, and I say goodbye...

This was last weekend when I went to Greenwich with my lovely tomato.

My dress is from Goodwill.  I got it recently while I was on my latest shopping spree fest in Indianapolis, worn here with my T.J.Maxx bargain boots that I also found while on a shopping spree rampage with my sisters.  

Lots more to come soon! X

Woman

With the new year approaching, I can't help but reminisce about how good this year has been to me and how being 24 has honestly been the best time of my life so far...I didn't achieve some things I set out to, like signing up for that break dance class and losing a whole stone, but I managed to keep track of my studies and my finances (even though it was so difficult resisting those fierce heels).  But I've done it :) and only hope to keep growing positively and stay humble and grounded as a woman in this sometimes chaotic city.

A couple of days ago, I came across this poem of 'Frida Khalo to Marty McConnell' and it inspired me beyond my wildest dreams.  Here it is, hoping it inspires you as much as it did for me...

Leaving is not enough; you must

stay gone. train your heart

like a dog. change the locks

even on the house he’s never

visited. you lucky, lucky girl.

you have an apartment

just your size. a bathtub

full of tea. a heart the size

of Arizona, but not nearly

so arid. don’t wish away

your cracked past, your

crooked toes, your problems

are papier mache puppets

you made or bought because the vendor

at the market was so compelling you just

had to have them. you had to have him.

and you did. and now you pull down

the bridge between your houses,

you make him call before

he visits, you take a lover

for granted, you take

a lover who looks at you

like maybe you are magic. make

the first bottle you consume

in this place a relic. place it

on whatever altar you fashion

with a knife and five cranberries.

don’t lose too much weight.

stupid girls are always trying

to disappear as revenge. and you

are not stupid. you loved a man

with more hands than a parade

of beggars, and here you stand. heart

like a four-poster bed. heart like a canvas.

heart leaking something so strong

they can smell it in the street.

JFK

I stumbled upon this email that Proud Camden dropped in my inbox.  Surprisingly, this one was not about finding a horse's tail and getting free drinks for the rest of Thursday night.  Oh no, but on a sweet note, it was the photos of the late President JFK and his family.
Just how adorable is this one! melts my heart...
 
 

I couldn't access all the photos but here is the link to the vintage photo timeline, from Proud Camden to me, and from me to you.
