when i was young, younger than before

yay! i finished my first roll of film on matt's old manual camera and i was a little worried about whether or not i could actually take pictures without a fancy camera doing all the work for me but it turns out I CAN! now g'wan and have a look-see.

just sitting in the kitchen with my fortune and fame

hmmmm how do we feel about these alexander mcqueen for puma sneakerheels? at first i was like "whoa i'm in love" and then i was all," really, sneakerheels? what exactly is the point of a heel that looks like a sneaker?" and then i thought, "go with your gut alexandra. you personally might not ever own and/or wear them, but let's go ahead and like them."

i'm pretty sure i won't be able to sleep at night till i know how everyone else feels so let's put it to a vote. 

after pondering long and hard, how do these sneakerheels make you feel?


to go away on a summer's day never seemed so clear

i have tentative plans to do nothing at all this weekend (after a busy stressful {ick i hate that word} workweek) but so far my weekend non-plans are getting filled up with more and more shopping plans. first, there is target for cynthia vincent shoes and maybe some basic v-neck tees (you can never have too many and i like the $8 price tag). then maybe this awesome-sounding-fashion-school-sponsored-for-a-good-cause CLOTHING SWAP in downtown sf (see flyer below). and then maybe off to painted bird for some new (to me) vintage dresses, with a stop by goodwill, thriftown, and salvation army since i'll be in the area, obvi.
i also kinda wanted to sit around and read and draw and take pictures and clean and nap and blah blah blah i'm guessing one to none of these things will actually happen, but ohhhhwelllll.
what are your plans for the weekend?
