Muffins

Ahh yes, the foibles of winter. I am standing in a huge snowbank, layered like a lumberjack, trudging onwards into the exam period. Life couldn't be better. I am finally getting to wear these massive heifer Sorel snow boots that I bought on eBay this summer in anticipation of this weather. These boots are pretty harcore and obviously built to last, which is a good thing since I probably won't be able to wear any other shoes until next March!

In other news, this internet cartoon sums up my life exactly right about now.

Padded Cell

I am currently doing just about everything in my power to avoid screaming like a banshee at the top of my lungs, before crumbling into a large heap of failed potential. Normally I don't have a problem with scream therapy, but I am in a silent library right now and that would be socially unacceptable and just plain rude. Its just better to scream it out in your head while listening to Black Flag on your headphones.

Yep, its kind of hard to say 'this outfit was inspired by Missoni' with a straight face when I'm wearing a classic hippie sweater/"drug rug", but I'm all about the humour.

In other (not) exciting news, I found LEOPARD PRINT EARMUFFS while thrifting last week.

Make History

Now that its finally December, the Christmas themed parties are in full force! Last Friday, I wore this to a friends party titled "Santa Bros and Ho Ho Hos". Not a huge fan of the name (women aren't always hoes!), but the party was a really good time anyways. I'll take basically any excuse to dress up! Also, classes for the semester are over already and exams are in full force next week. Wish me luck, friends!

Dudes, I made another painfully akward video blog! Watch it on youtube or here.

Apparently I am quite prone to saying 'you know' when I talk to myself.

Also, you can watch my oher video blogs here, here and here.

Decent Pay

Taking a good picture was just not happening this morning - first the camera ran out of batteries, then I accidentally knocked over the tripod, then when I actually took a picture I ended up looking like some windswept tool with a goofy grin. But what the hey, I am a bit of a goofy tool, and at least you can see the sequin/lace detail on my outer shirt better then you could the last time!

I look like a total student from the waist down and a tranny hooker from the waist up. Just keeping it casual, y'know?

This is probably the most badass tattoo I have ever seen. I'd rather just wear my Joy Division shirt though...

This Charming Man

So, I don't really know if the 90s grunge revival is considered 'not trendy' anymore or whatever but I continue to be inspired by it on a daily basis. I love me some visual mess, Nirvana, Angela Chase and Morrisey. Honest.





Pics from Nice and Shiny, I forget where else.

Christmas is coming early...

OH FATE GODS, YOU SMILE UPON ME

Are you serious? Is American Apparel actually opening a new location a five minute walk from my apartment? PLEASE PINCH ME. No, even better. PLEASE HIRE ME. I am seriously considering attaching this picture to the back of my resume. I know what job I'm aiming for this summer...

This is probably not a big deal for anyone who lives in a major city centre, but I am a hick and the the closest American Apparel location has always been at least one hour away.
