The Guest of Honor

July 30th, 2010 § 3

YOW.

Where have I been??

Picking up Merl’s slack, that’s where!

And although the opinion is bias, I highly recommend reading her biography that I wrote.

It’s one of the best things I’ve ever read in my entire life.

A new classic.

And it features Chuck Norris and Danny Bonaduce so don’t tell me you’re not fucking insanely curious.

Read it.

Every part

of my soul wants to buy this.

Les Enfants Sur La Table

July 23rd, 2010 § 13

Well.

It seems as though I created quite a bit of confusion yesterday by claiming “a new haircut, of sorts”.

All I meant was that I did a slight redesign of the blog.

That is all.

I apologize.

Moving forward:

I have a terrible headache and not much to say.

All of the things I want to say contain many expletives.

And you don’t need to be hearing that.

But indeed,

the time has come.

It’s Friday.

Who knows what would happen if it weren’t.

And to be honest: I took the scarf off.

And switched to a black blazer.

I’m just a mess today.

I should have worn sweats and played hooky.

If only…

Bottom Up:

Shoes: MIA via Nordstrom Rack

Jeans: Forever 21

So friends, let’s all have the most restful, mind-calming, meditative weekends of our lives.

Eh?

A New Haircut, Of Sorts

Whadda ya think?

Cow Town

Whoa.

Who’s that tall lady?

Oh gee, that’s me.

I had this guy crouch because I realized that his stature is makin’ me look small.

This was taken last.

Typically, I keep things in chronological order.

Just thought I’d start out with a bit of a bang today.

See?

That angle makes my legs look smushed.

It’s proportionately incorrect.

So, I’ll probably have to buy him a chair.

The lazy photog.

Ha.

My hair is being strange today.

OH YEAH!

I wanted to tell you that I’m very excited for the weekend because that guy bought us tickets to the Riverfront Park Fashion Show (Sarah, are you aware of this? Are you going?) which will be featuring designs by none other than a certain Miss Betsey Johnson. And Sue Wong.

Huwuuh???!!!!

Yes.

So, Mr. Man sprung the big guns and got us Catwalk Seats!

And you shall hear all about it.

I guarantee it.

The Bottom of a Top

July 21st, 2010 § 9

Halfway through the week.

Take that, week.

Sunny again.

Hasn’t been sunny for a while.

Still cool, though- which is very nice.

Thinking about a trip to the thrift for lunch.

Care to join me?

Hm.

I guess I don’t really have a lot to say this morning.

Not

too

much

goin’

on.

Can you see the actual print of the dress, though?

It’s a large, general zebra print.

With teeny tiny zebras in it!

Double whammy!

Shoes: Seychelles Twistin’ the Night Away

Dress: Modcloth

Scarf: Thrifted

Shades: Thrifted

Also, I thought it was very awesome when my Full House Cirlce day (yesterday) ended up coming full circle itself.

At the very end of the day I got this email:

DJ Tanner.

Allllright!

I’m the Original Gangstah

So.

Hello.

I just wanted to touch base about something real quick, thanks.

First, I am very happy to see happy you are about my Dad’s blog!

I am really happy, too!

He’s an amazing writer with a wit sharper than a tack.

Although I’ve read his posts over and over, I perused his archives yet again today.

Guess what I found?

Comments from me!

Buuuuuuut……

My name linked me back to a ridiculous blast from my past (like… ’06).

Curious?

The Milkman, the Paperboy

Soo…..

Kind of an odd day so far, but I won’t jump to any conclusions.

Perhaps things will iron out and make more sense by the afternoon.

Let’s hope so.

But on a completely unrelated note, I have a tiny rant for you this Tuesday.

And it’s about these guys.

Being the absolute epitome of a child of the 90s I was raised on a strict diet of Full House.

I

was

obsessed.

I wanted to change my middle name to Michelle.

Live in San Fran (with all of my uncles?).

You get it.

I even vividly remember being in 2nd or 3rd grade and driving around with my poor Father who was subject to listen to Mary-Kate and Ashely’s cassette tapes while we garage sailed.

Sorry about that Dad.

I was their biggest fan.

And then the time came when we went our separate ways and I tried my hardest to disassociate from my Olsen-ridden past.

It worked for quite some time.

But today is the beginning of a life come Full (house) Circle.

Here I stand, in my Elizabeth and James flats.

I have lusted over many things in their line, but couldn’t afford a sneeze of it.

These were on super sale.

And they bring me much peace.

After all of these years, I am finally where I always wanted to be:

In the Olsen twins’ shoes.

Cut.

It.

Out.

Bottom Up:

Shoes: Elizabeth and James via shopbop

Dress: Thrifted

Lingerie Robe/House Coat: Thrifted (and knotted)

Belt: Thrifted

Ring: Erin Wasson x Low Luv! (It finally fucking came!)

Hello Monday.

Thanks for letting the clouds hang out and cool things down.

Much appreciated.

Duncan agreed.

Clouds:

A+

See that smile?

That is one happy dude, folks.

With stinky breath.

And hey guess what?

This is my 4th of July outfit!

Finally!

Isn’t this romper just amazing? And obviously perfect for the 4th?

Thanks! I thought so, too.

Bottom Up:

Shoes: Jeffrey’s via Loris

Romper: Urban Outfitters (and it’s on sale right now!)

Cardi: TJMAXX

Scarf: Gift

* * *

Oh yeah, and we did see Inception.

And it was pretty flipping cool.

I would definitely recommend it.

Which I didn’t think I was going to say.

Mind changed.

Movie good.

Hulk smash.
