Get Some








These are all pictures from my "date" with myself. Enjoy! 

1&2: I've always loved looking at the sky and the clouds. For some reason it fascinates me that blobs of white can float around in the sky. 

3: Me being a weirdo with my favorite food- Cheeze- Its. I've never been one for fancy and expensive food. Plain and simple is how I like it. (Basically if you get me french fries or cheeze-its, we are married.) I really enjoy listening to music as well when I'm outside. I just makes me feel connected with the earth and myself. These are actually my favorite headphones, they are Marc by Marc Jacobs. I claim to be the creepy girl on the side...

4: My outfit of the day. I wore some overalls with a cropped sweater and some coral socks. It wasn't too cold that day, but the wind was blowing, so I decided a sweater and socks were needed. 

5: My mom has beautiful decoration all over our house, but this is probably my favorite. I always stand in front of it and see which parts of me are reflected in the tinier parts of the glass decor. 

6: This was taken in my parents bathroom. The windows are so cool and I always sit by their tub and look out through the windows. Everything you see, whether if you're looking in or out, is distorted. 

7: I was going shopping and I passed by this field area by my house. So I quickly grabbed my camera and took a pic, while trying not to swerve into oncoming traffic (don't try this at home...) 

I did not feel like going to see a movie or walk around a museum, so I decided to have fun at my house. To me it's a date because I got to know myself better, and my perfect date idea (yes, I have one...) would be a simple picnic with my partner and I listening to music and staring up at the sky. I love to dance, so of course once I put my headphones on, I couldn't resist. So here's a lil' video of me frolicking about:

Advanced Style



As I was browsing the web a few days ago, I came across a website called Teenage Peanut. It is run by a woman who films and edits a multitude of videos, ranging from small documentaries to music videos. As I was watching some, I came across this one. It's a documentary being made about stylish older women in New York. This video is awe-inspiring for me. These ladies are all so unique and beautiful, and of course fabulously stylish. One of the messages I kept getting was that younger people today are too concerned with what society says looks good, and that's not how we should live. All of these women talk about how their style has evolved over time, and just kept getting more fun as time passed on. I love that they have this sense of freedom about them, where they can do whatever they want and are completely happy. One of the women said "Become yourself with a capital S." It just spoke to me, saying that life is definitely way too short, so why not be yourself without any restraints. I definitely recommend watching the trailer for this one, and they have a couple other clips from one on one interviews with some of the ladies. I don't think the documentary has been released yet, but it may be soon, so keep an eye out for it!
