rottenapples: December 2008

Got this thrifted dress hemmed a few weeks ago. the lady at the cleaners insisted on keeping the ruffle trim. the bottom feels big. and it feels girl.

what he wore today: m

trying to sell my life away

on ebay. so over it.

saving a few fun tid bits for the long-awaited etsy store.

i hate stuff

i think i'll start wearing this amber ring again. i've been borrowing it from my mother for about 6 years now.

thrifted this dress last week and spent too much $. has holes but the cotton is really soft. since its like 70 degrees in new york today no tights for me just AA knee-high socks compliments of ariel.

christmas morning

mills (millie) and a squeaky toy. love her.

why are paw prints so cute?

even the dirty kind

and poor scout stood (like LITERALLY) and watched with envy :( he wants to play with the girls so bad. do you like his christmas necklace?

double your pleasure...

double your fun? i think that's how it goes. here's 1 of the dresses x2 from my h&m spree last month:

2 of my favorite things - - stripes and pockets!!!

snow globe central today. embroidered dress and thick tights kept me warm.

last friday: i wake up and think to myself that i've outgrown my blog. style diary - i get it. my style aint changing so what am i looking at? shall i evolve my onlineness? or just do something else?

saturday: go to my aunts house for the weekend and forget my canon there. is that a sign? (i also left all the jewelry i was wearing and ariel left her nalgene bottle and my mom left pictures. that part can't be a sign - i just think we are all a bit crazy).

monday: my aunt says she'll send my camera, i don't miss it. hmm...altho i did take a few pics down there that i want to post.

today: it snowed :) wasn't the good kind, it was a wet mess and my hair got wet and ugly. but whatever it was still exciting. couldn't really capture the pretty fluffiness of the snowflakes with loaner cam.

i did my recession proof christmas shopping today: less people on the list and the people who made the list are getting a lot less. easy! i think this is my favorite gift that i bought. its a turkish evil eye with elephants. i imagine it hanging on the window or a small scrap of wall. i always want what i buy for others. blahhh.

school uniform for reals. just kidding, but it could be.

question, does this jacket stay or go? ( quick background: need to consolidate badly butttt it is vintage leatha and one of my older finds) keep or sell? help.

i don't really wear graphic tees too much anymore but this rabbit in hi-top sneaks with fangs was a gift from costa rico. thanks ariel, its super soft and i like the way the sleeves fit.

old dress from last year. its like a halter top and heavy because nothing holds it up, that's what i get with f21.

blast from the past.
(before rottenapples was born).

obsessed with the streets and buildings. all of them.
