Ampersand as Apostrophe

These bags are absolutely gorgeous. They remind me of my senior thesis ;)

(I've been so into emoticons lately. What am I, 13?)

These bags are made from 100  year old english mail carrier bags. Their natural wear is just stunning. This just proves that leather goods get more beautiful with age and love.

lashes

I want lashes like these. A trip to the store might be in order.

hair

I chopped my hair off on Monday. Saturday night I toyed with the idea with Sarah and Caryn over a lovely sushi dinner. Caryn thought I should lop the whole thing off and do some assymmetrical sultry boycut type. When I visited the bathroom during dinner that night, I decided that was not an option but a shorter do was in the cards for me. Sunday I told my mother of my thoughts. She thought it would be fantastic. She called me a coward when I hadn't made the appointment that afternoon. In spite, I made a haircut appt for the next day with Chris at Vincent Palumbo. Coward, that.

Next thing I know I'm in Chris' chair after a lovely coffee with my dog Charlie telling my stylist to "chop it all off."
That is exactly what he did.

I am pleased with the haircut, but some part of me feels it's unfinished. Another part of me thinks I want to look like someone completely different. This haircut is significant of letting go of old time bullshit, embracing new experiences and hoping for a new future. I think a new color is in order.

I'll post a photo when I feel satisfied.

Punta di Vista

I know this whole "matte hair" thing is in, but it doesn't mean you need to look like a you just came out of a tornado. I always think its kind of funny that a lot of makeup and effort go into looking natural and unkempt.

I'm especially drawn to the girls with their fly away ponytails and scraggly eyebrows.

I love this girl's lips. I'm also very interested in her blouse. It's the kind of thing I would totally seek out and buy and then leave in my closet for years, just to put on for dress up. 

This girl is my favorite.
