way overdue outing w rahmid

he's looking cute as usual

set out in search of black shoes but no luck. i got these Tin-Man oxfords on sale

the highlight of the day was finding a tiny lil restaurant surrounded by factory looking buildings and huge over-priced loft apartments that overlook the east river. its called "1980"
proally 1 of my best hot chocolate experiences, and yes good beverages and food are experiences
baked pear and blueberries, perfect for a cold winter day
rahmids great looking sandwich

speaking of amazing delectables, my arms are turning into sausages. brace yurself, i'm actually considering joining a gym. yuck, but desperate times call for...well you know

Lots Of Black

my fav street purchase for $1: featured shirt
i think this is a dress...too 90's Beverly Hills 90201 for my taste so i've only been wearing it as a long shirt

I'm really not back

laptop is home with all of my beloved bookmarked style blogs. Thank the stars and clouds...or thank you michael actually. Long story short my internet is all messed up. getting a new modem this week so wish me luck. i really do hate that i just used the word "modem"

sweatshirts at work are not grown-up

but what the hell

Raglan pullover junkie

finally scored the gray american apparel shirt (already have cream)! altho this pic doesn't show it - these shirts fit so perfectly. i think the black one will be mine next week! sincerely, the junkie

High

waists n thick thighs
i was told my torso looks midget size. lol.

I'm SO NOT Back but here Are A Few Pix

growing jessica simpson boobs and NOT xcited!
jbrand jeans makes 2 gray skinnies for me - these will be cut into shorts

no more mens plaid shirts. i'm done i say

I Am Alive

but my laptop isn't! well i'ts very sick...who am i kidding i killed her. And no, i will not reveal how (but yes, sadly - illegal behavior was included). So anyway life without a blog is odd and life without the internet is horrifyinggg. i guess i can try to upload at work but i feel like every entry will be angry if i do that. so it's project save money to take lil apple to the hospital and get fixed. stay tuned people or person :/

met up with james today...

and joined his world wind shopping spree in prep for the almighty trip to trinidad. we saw this kid walking on lafayette...
once i saw the LEGWARMERS the camera came out!
james, patiently waiting for me
i'm always tempted to add this this dress to my sell bag but it hasn't made it yet. deep down i like the deer and nature scene on it.

Boring and Warm


sorry for the scary picture with the fake smile. but i need to document how i butchered my bang. the good thing is that i can actually see past my hair after 2 years the bad thing is it's mucho feo.

300 Degrees Below Cold Today

AND today is my rottenapples 1 year anniversary. yay! no major style evolutions or epiphanys to note right now. i forsee a lot of black, navy and gray for me in 2008...o so boring to some but frenchy, casual prep to me:) neways, thanks for all of your comments, keep em comin.

Juno Juno Juno

Grannie sweaters are the best

AND in regards to my disgusting office...my goal is to clean it before '08!

Slips

time to grow up and buy slips like a real lady. my dress was static clinging so badly to my uber thick tights that i had to cut a silky nightgown thingy and wear underneath. sheesh!

Vintage pok-a-dots


i really like small pok-a-dots. want more.

Can't get enuff of the furry coat


this lady from my job (her name is friday- so cute) asked if i got my shirt from a vintage shop because it reminded her of her something her mom had. i wonder if i'm wearing friday's mom's old lingerie...vintage does float around.

I Miss Music

haven't been to a show in a while :(
The Go! Team - Huddle Formation

Allow Me To Introduce...


margot, my new best friend. my Fairy Vintage Giving God-Mother, courtney spotted it at a vintage clothing swop this summer and i've been dying to wear it ever since. she's named after margot tenenbaum and her favorite fur coat from the royal tenenbaums, duh. peta friendly and warm (real fur grosses me out - i don't eat meat and i'm not wearing their fur, thanks) - happiness!

p.s. i'm wearing the tights we got in LONDON, remember the drama involved court? hehe

Missing Gray Cardigan Found

omg, i wore like 3 layers of long sweaters today. never again - i was way too toasty.

American Apparel Skirt

u can't see it here, but it's the high waist one with pockets on the front
maybe i should clean my office next week

Mainstream is so bittersweet

Get ready to share lil leslie with the world - Feist was nominated for 4 grammys!
Feist- 1234

Kinda forgot I had these boots

wore these for a while then i was over them. maybe i'll start wearing them again. the top part can fold over and they slouch. i remember these boots cracking - like cracking in 1/2 while walking home in the rain :( way too 2nd hand.

Ariel, you went on vaca in the desert?


ariel (my lil sister) lives in sandy eggo right now.

I'd totally live on this sandy hill if I was 6 years old. i want to eat it!!!!

so it turns out, ariel and friends were on their way to see their friends submarine race (like a car race but with model submarines) and they stumbled upon SALVATION MOUNTAIN in Slab City (the desert!). A cute lil man has spent the last 25 years creating this "magically quaint" desert art with donated supplies...for god so he says. some "pit stop"

Parisian Flea Market Find

jacket: some people hate it and others love it. whatever, we found in in a flea market in paris a few summers ago.

walk softly


these patent leather honeys are past vintage, they're just OLD. i hope they don't fall apart on me.
