not really hammer time →
i am a proud owner of harem pants and i rock them whenever possible. they allow my upper thigh and crotch region to breath, whilest allowing passersby to reminisce about the days of m.c. hammer. don’t knock it ‘til you’ve tried it.
not politically correct

Thought of the Day:
obviously i would be going, since i live one mile away, but don’t expect to see me in a bikini. rockuboff: I usually have a big pool party at my house on Long Island over the summer. I was thinking of maybe having a Tumblr meet up/pool party if people would be down. I’m only an hour by train from the city and 45 minutes by car from most points in Brooklyn. Thoughts? It would be bad ass…

for god’s sake, ladies, dress conservatively on interviews. once you get hired, then you can wear your garter belts and crotchless panties at the workplace. try to maintain some sense of decorum, please.
i haven’t listened to it in a while, but i’m newly obsessed with my muxtape. call me a self-promoter, but it’s the bomb. i can’t help but rock out with my _____ out (?).

dress for less and less →
the title says it all; prices on clothing has dropped. i would know, since i purchased four pairs of shoes this weekend and my wallet never saw a dent.
styling: mary's boyfriend
mary, whom i styled a month or two back, asked for some advice to help her boyfriend. she wanted to help him experiment with color and find some well-fitting clothing. the man is tall (6’6”! almost two feet taller than myself!) and skinny, so i was definitely delving into unknown territory. but never you mind, i’ve said many times, i love a good challenge. recommendation: check...
the use of an online journal
i recently came upon a tumblr who really exemplified what an online journal should be; pastnotes. these are the published thoughts of a girl looking back on her teenage experiences in an effort to self-analyze where she has gone in the past and who she will become in the future. all posts are compiled as reflections on found photos, poems, quotes, and even songs of inspiration. in a way, her...

my dad asked me to assist him on a photoshoot at the madagascar exhibit in the bronx zoo on thursday. i wish i had a better camera to document the lions and monkeys in full form.
is recycling your old clothes worth it? →
now that more and more people are finding ways of saving money by shopping and giving thrift, but “the volume is increasing, while the quality is decreasing.” i say, just check out some tutorials and diy it up.

what kind of shopper are you?
a few weeks back, i had mentioned to someone that i preferred to shop alone. the person took this to mean [and said] that i was “anti-social”. i felt that, not only was it a rude and insulting statement, but also completely untrue (i am a social butterfly, thank you very much). when i shop, i almost always have a goal purchase in mind, and i tend to partake in an inner competition with...
