Gremlin

(H&M Faux Fur Collar, AA Mesh Dress, AA Harem Pants, Vintage Gloves, Topshop booties, black lipstick)

I got super bored because the husband wasn't taking me out (or playing attention to anything other than his video games) so I played dress up instead... the goth way. I'm really digging black lipstick.

Hot Like Mexico

(Zara Studded Leather Jacket and Lace Up Wedges, BDG Flannel via Urban Outfitters, American Apparel Velvet Leggings [They're actually black. Excuse the weird lighting] and sunglasses)

If I had all the time in the world, I would spend more time sleeping next to my husband and cuddling, eating comfort food, or doing something creative. I really wish I had more free time. But I guess it's fine.

In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I'd like to say that I'm thankful for my health, my heart and the people around me. I'm very happy at this moment with everything. It's a rare occurrence but I just can't help it :)

What are you thankful for?

Some Inspiration

(fashiongonerouge, jakandjil, altamiranyc, stylesightings, tfs, other)

I'm really excited to say that I'm working on a project with a friend of mine that I hope to share with you all. I've got a lot of ideas running through my mind and a lot of inspiration to work with. I hope to get started on it as soon as my work schedule allows because I really don't want to lose momentum. I will give you all more details about it soon.


Speaking of projects, I got an email recently about this photo competition with Jimmy Choo and Elton John AIDS Foundation. It's for Project Pep which helps raise funds for AIDS awareness and supports the Simelela Rape Centre in South Africa. All you have to do is submit a photo with the theme "You, Your Shoes and 72," and get a chance to win the Jimmy Choo VIP experience. You can read all about it here at Project PEP.

Monster

(Forever 21 Faux Fur Coat, American Apparel Sexualitank, Disco Pants, Beret, and Sunglasses, Vintage Riding Boots)

Listening to Lady Gaga's The Fame Monster has brightened up my life. I wish things could be much easier or that I didn't have to worry about the things I do. Such is the process of growing up and trying to find yourself, I guess...

This blows.

Du

Guess who's on the cover of Vogue China? Du, that's who!

Way Out

(Forever 21 Studded jacket, American Apparel Shiny Too-Short Tube Dress, Christopher Kane x Topshop Mesh heels)

It's been more than a month since I last updated. I guess you could say I took a break from it all. After my 21st birthday, I sort of stopped shopping and instead saved my money. Going out also came to a halt. I'm slowly starting to get back into the rhythm of things but I'm doing it with a better approach. I guess getting old has gotten to me.

These Christopher Kane x Topshop shoes were a birthday gift from the hubby. He knew I was drooling over them before they came out. I am in love with them!

Until next time...

Paparazzi

(Zara blazer, AA dolman tee, AA leggings, Zara studded heels)

I went to the Central Library in downtown Los Angeles today. I picked up a book on Chicano art (in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month) and one on art from The Vatican. While I was there, I looked at some Fashion books including those about Alaia, Kenzo, and Balenciaga. I need to make more time for reading especially since I've taken a semester off from school (stupid decision). Sigh.



It's strange how after almost 21 years of living in LA county, I'm barely starting to get to know my city...
