On Loan

T shirt; boyfriend’s, orange tights; American Apparel, Vintage Leather Purse; Monster Vintage, Vintage Mexican Circle Skirt; Monster Vintage, Wedges; Jeffrey Campbell

Monster Vintage was nice enough to loan me some items. I requested three different hand-painted Mexican circle skirts and was ecstatic when they provided me with all three. The detail in them is beautiful. The condition they’re in, is incredible. And their versatility, is slowly dawning on me…

I'm currently obsessed with lipsticks again. I go through phases. I like lipstick, then I don't, then I like lipstick again, then I don't. It's similar to my Good 'N Plenty phases. First I think the pink ones taste better, then I think the white ones taste better, then I think they taste exactly the same, but then I get an exceptionally good pink one! ohmygoodness

I got out of bed today to go to Strand Used Books to feed my sci-fi fluff need. Of course they didn't have what I was looking for and I left the store disappointed. I ended up going to my favorite fabric store and buying some buttons for a jean jacket I bleached forever ago and haven't gotten around to finishing. I love buttons. I'm currently obsessed with trying to find a way to make my most awesomest buttons into rings. I can't seem to find a quality band I could super-glue or cement these things onto. I need ideas.

P.S. Next season of Big Love is on it's way! It'll be here tomorrow and I'm dyyyying. OH the humanity!

About face

Came across UK cosmetics line Illamasqua. Why haven't I heard of this name before? I love when people can color outside the lines.





They have some great tutorial vids also. None of that stupid drawing on a paper face w/pics of products in containers. You know what I mean (ehem, cough, MAC)?
Oh, but speaking of: check this shiznit out -->

Ok, I'm still yo bitch, MAC.

it's like the capulets and the romulans

Currently, i'm obsessed with lip colors. I'm liking these crazy bright colors that aren't exactly kissably cuddley, but who wants cooties anyway? I want a lime green but can't really find it anywhere.

The orange, lilac, and bright red are all mac. The red is mac pro longwear lipcolor, which is seriously prolonged wear. You know the commercials with the lady kissing the baby and the dude and it doesn't come off, well this is like that for reals. I can't even take it off with soap and water. Fuck. Good thing i like it. And put it on last. The magenta is prestige. p.s. the glasses are real prescription, they are awesome... are you lucky enough to wear glasses?
