Better Eject




I always tend to feel like a little girl when i'm wearing tights, even if they're not patterned and brightly colored.
But on a chilly day like today they're the perfect remedy for not wanting to wear pants... and apparently my remedy for youth.

An 80's party is in store, and my way of concluding 2011.

Happy New Year!

Basic Space



Other than decor i have not been feeling Christmas colors. I'm still on a pink high and i don't see it fading anytime soon.

This month has been so much fun! LOVing the new job (accounting is my cup of tea), comfortable now as a new makeup girl (new fabulous job #2) and the shopping, ohhh the shopping has been fucking fantastic.
Tomorrow morning... much anticipated.

Merry Christmas!

Oh yeah



Everything has been going so well.
Girl just got a dream job, for this point in my life.
There will be a small party at my place. Let me know if you're in the area and i'll get you the details.

I'm still, also, working on my undergrad but as soon as the dust starts to set in i plan to be back here on a regular basis!
I haven't been happy with how the inside shots are turning out compared to the pictures taken outside and this time of year in Seattle it can be tricky timing outside shots since the sun barely shows up when you wake and completely disappears before 4:30p, but that's no trouble.

So tired right now.
I'm off to pour a glass of red, draw a hot bath and set Pandora to jazz essentials.
Goodnight!

Rose






This blush, chiffon blouse is my newest love affair.
Don't know how i've gotten by without it. I'll try not to abuse it too much in following posts, but i apologize ahead of time if i do.
Maybe you'll begin to love it as much as i do.

I've been spending time hanging around the makeup counter at a local spa; an artistic haven for someone with a serious love for the fashion world, not to mention luxurious body care.
It's such a golden experience i hardly consider it work.

Turkey in the Oven




I woke up today toward the end of the a.m. ready to cook pancakes. Pumpkin pancakes topped with simple yogurt and a slight maple syrup drizzle.

Despite whatever really happened years ago between the people of the land and the people who found the land, i'm just happy to have a day devoted to cooking, eating and relaxing on this American holiday.

And when it's rainy and cold outside, staying in all cozied up is all the better.

Life on Mars





Yes, this is almost the same outfit as yesterday. I just had a rush of inspiration for this shirt as i walked back to my closet and suddenly realized how many clothes i have (and more i could accumulate) that can be pared with it.
This shirt goes with everything, i love the fit and neckline.

Last night I watched Insidious.
I'm a pretty big fan of scary films and it has topped the charts as one of my favourites.

I have been a fan of the Paranormal(s).
Freaky as Hell.
I try to catch them while they're in the theatre so i don't have to watch them sitting on my own couch in my home of safety.

Maybe it's not so bad





I am 100% dog person, i miss not having one around.
That will have to change at some point in the future. And a real dog at that, not an addition to my purse. I need one that's athletic and outdoorsy.

Although you've seen Ok Go here before this video is just too good to pass up.

Holiday Dressing



Wow, sorry about that. Had to set everything down for a minute to take on a temporary full-time project.
All for the greater good.

I've been feeling very hostess-ee lately, getting really excited about the holidays.
This is always such a fun time of year!

Land of Ice and Snow





Who wants to do homework when you can go play in the low tide?

I have to say, finding something at a serious discount when you would be willing to pay retail is quite the high. I was hoping to get a pair of the pastel pink Dr Martens but stumbling upon these at half price... and in my size?
Yes, please.

A big, chunky knit sweater would be my splurge right now.

Warm Feet



I have this weird thing about not being able to wear something right after i buy it. I need time to bond with it first. Takes a few days or so.
Though occasionally there is an instant connection, like a void has finally been filled.

Scarves are my favourite addition to fall.
It's so nice having them cozied up around you neck.
