one of my new books, Flowers.
When I was 16, I found out that I have a half sister. It was a very shocking surprise.
You can find out the craziest things in a short second.

A few of you asked if I dyed my hair...I did! It was ombre for a few months but now it's back to normal, a little better for the cold winter. I can't wait for december and a little break.

also,
happy thanksgiving! I'm so thankful for your kindness and all of the wonderful people I've met through this blog. I'm working midnight-9am for black friday, best of luck to anyone else who is, also!

frequently

here are some things that I use frequently, as of recent:
cable knit sweaters from american apparel
lip butter by KORRES (it's natural and made in athens!)
all over shimmer in "kitten" (how could you resist with that name) by stila and
"silk road" by nars
nailpolish by american apparel in dance and bronze


speaking of frequency, it's been so terribly long since I've posted here!
I've been so busy with schoolwork and I have many projects to show very soon.
I promise not to stay gone for so long ever again!

what kinds of posts would you like to see more of?

goodbye summer

Just wanted to say a quick hi.
School has been pretty busy, as it's my last year ever.

Spending time working on projects, bundling up for the new cold weather, and listening much to the newer Elected album (which I would almost advise against buying the physical album because the images are so repulsive and make me nauseous when I have to flip it over, but the songs are so beautiful).

superior

pz silver shade spectra at lake superior

Some people believe there are whales in lake superior
I wish it were true
especially if they were belugas.
We only saw one chipmunk and a bunch of rocks, and statues of norwegians.
There's such great history there, but we didn't find leif erikson's sword or anything exciting like that.
We did however find the best caramels and the smoothest sitting rocks in existence.

my final year of MCAD starts this monday.
last first day of school forever!

mountain in the clouds

Mount saint helens.
I thought it was a mountain. how strange that it's a volcano.
a stratovolcano.

fascinating!

Getting inspiration from these lovely ladies, as I'm missing my long hair. I have to remind myself of how insanely thick my hair is and how hot I would be had I not cut it.
Who do you think wears it best? Audrey looks beautiful no matter what, especially with short hair, but I've always loved Chantal Goya's cut.
