Hair Appointment, Let's Try This Again.

I'm getting my hairs chopped off again today, let's hope it works out better this time...

Ink Love: Beautiful Mess

I adore this tattoo. It's too bad you can't read it but I just love this picture. The cut of the shirt, the messy messy hair and the tiny, subtle tattoo against the dark city background. I love it. That's all.

Brooklyn, Brooklyn, Take Me In...

Headed to the city for a weekend of music and revery. Have a great weekend everyone!

The Halsey Sisters

I am going through musical withdrawl. I don't think I mentioned it, but over the summer my roommates and I formed a casual but very fullfilling band which we dubbed The Halsey Sisters. We wrote a few songs, covered a few, played in a few parks and it was frankly fantastic. I am missing that outlet terribly now.

I just found out that a friend of mine, who is not a musician per say, sang at her bars open mic with a friend. The wave of jealousy that washed over me was not only overwhelming but surprising. I was intensely jealous of that oppurtunity and really wanted the same for myself.

My old roommate and have been attempting some long distance song writing and she's coming up in a few weeks to record some stuff for my recording class and I'm heading to NYC this weekend to play a bit and see some friends. But I'm itching to have some people to write and play with on a more consistent basis, and also the time with which to do so(dare to dream).

College Does Not Look Like This

College is taking over my life. I had incorrectly assumed at the beginning of the semester that my senior year would be a piece of cake. And not that it's the hardest thing I've ever done but it's not easy either. The combination of 30 hours a week at work, full time school with some hard ass history classes and a rather tragic case of senioritis is leaving me pretty pooped. I feel like I have no free time to myself and I would KILL for a day off. Or even just a day to sleep in. How do you guys deal when you feel as if you're stretched just a bit too thin? How do you remember to find time for yourself but also make sure you get all of your work done? I'm not gonna lie, I'm very much looking forward to graduation.

Newly(and officially) Single? Bring On the Leather...

Nothing says hot piece of confident, sexy, so-over-that-other-dude ass quite like leather. My new roommate has brought something lovely to the house...
A pair of leather leggings that I did not have to buy. I'll be honest, they aren' the sort of thing I would buy myself, but if they're laying around well hell, I'll indulge my inner rockstar. They are perfect for heading to the bar and picking up that cute, scruffy musician looking boy at the end of the bar. And yeh, ok, my confidence is a bit lacking and maybe they'll only allow me to muster up the courage to look at said cute boy, but hey, it's progress.

My only question is how would you wear your leather leggings? Tips for me anyone?

Currently Channeling: Toast

I love the Toast catalogue. Love it. It always makes me want to run off to some pretty old farm house on a moor with a yet more pretty slightly shaggy man. The looks form this years catalogue is just as lovely as the seasons before.
I adore those little lace up shoes, and how sweet are all the wooly tights and boots? The sweater dresses aren't bad either.

I also love the wellies and the muted plaids. The layered shirts are pretty great, but that's never been a look I could pull off. It always feels very high school to me. But I am lusting after that pretty yellow coat in the top picture.
