“Gave it Up”

“Still Love”

Saw this band on Wednesday night at the Roxy.  They’re awesome.  Think high school marching band misfits who had the last laugh because they make some really freakin’ sweet music.  It works.  Well.

If you’re looking for crazy bright, heavily pigmented eye makeup, might I suggest Sugarpill?  They’re relatively new on the block (you know how I love indie businesses), and how can you deny this packaging???

Thank you to my favorite Cosmonomad/artist/all around badass Zoetica Ebb for the tipoff.

I’ll leave the real reviews to the beauty bloggers, but this stuff is nothing short of amazing.  The color reads just as brightly on brown skin (YAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSS!!!), goes on smoothly and blends really well.  Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

I find myself more and more attracted to rectangular knee-length dresses.  Pretty soon, I’ll have one in every color in my preferred palette (I shouldn’t be typing that, but there is something on ebay that needs to become one with my closet).  I’m grateful to have finally figured out the silhouette that suits me because my jeans are getting tired.  T-I-R-E-D.

wearing:  thrifted vintage dress, F21 cardi, hat from Target, Talonalia & Instant Vintage necklaces, vintage shoes

This lil’ green vintage number (which makes me feel like a rouge Girl Scout) was found in Goodwill (of course).  I maintain that it is THE best place to find decently and predictably priced vintage clothing.  Sure, you have to dig, but it’s there.  It’s always there.

The shoes I found on etsy a couple of months ago.  James Rowland has some great shoes in that shop.  I was looking for a non-heel in a universal color (brown) and more “dressed up” than my Chucks.  The topstitching was a bonus.

The mini grenade necklace and hawk talon necklace are my own and can be purchased here and here, respectively.

In other news, I’ve been seriously thinking about cutting my hair.  You guys know I can’t stay with one thing for too long.  I get antsy.  I crave change.  Right now, I’m getting up the gumption thanks to Solange Knowles who is rocking the hell out of her TWA…and I still want this head decoration…which would look fantastic on top of my closely cropped head.

I have no idea when I’m going to do it, so try to act surprised when I do.
