American

I was reduced to nothing more than a silly fangirl upon seeing this (warning: contains some swearing, if you are a pure, innocent child):

I am so incredibly excited for this film to come out. Bill Hicks was one of my favourite comedians/people of all time. (OF ALL TIME!) So it's about time they made a tribute film. Oh goodness am I excited. Every time I watch this I become more excited about this film. Eeeeee!

The Mariner

This set I made has got me in such a summery mood. Basically I saw the shirt on net-a-porter.com and it seemed sort of sailor-ish. So I decided to make an outfit with that theme. Of course I was trying to find those sailor-y shorts, but I decided these Chloé shorts were just too good. So the Paul and Joe shirt and the Tory Burch sandals combined with that are really what I like about this set.

Shirt, shorts, and sandals from net-a-porter.com. For more info on the set you can check it out on my Polyvore page here.

p.s - I'm really starting to get the hang of Polyvore. It's fun.

So I'm a bit late on the collections. Err...more than a bit. But anyways, I thought I'd share my favourite looks from the Miu Miu Spring '10 and Fall '10 Ready-to-Wear collections.

我爱上海.

I love Shanghai.

Really. I do. And I bought some stuff there. Which I like. And I'm not speaking very well today. Please don't mind me. Me and mum raced off to Uniqlo, which is a lovely Japanese store/company. They've got three stores in Shanghai, a bunch more in Japan, probably some elsewhere in China. As well as some stores elsewhere. But alas, their only US store as of late is in New York. Which is far away from me. By a lot. So, my mum and I bought things there first. The things I bought there were:



A lovely blazer-type jacket. Which I've been wearing non-stop since.




This tee-shirt, which I wore to a MUSE concert. (italics, bold..ness, and capital letters for emphasis. maybe a post later on it? If I have decent pictures.).

And those things, along with some socks because I was running out, were what I bought at Uniqlo. I wish I could've bought more things there, but the jacket was expensive enough for me (a whopping 299 RMB, which is about 45 US dollars, if I got that conversion right. So I'm broke. And $45 is a bit much for me to spend. On anything except maybe a concert ticket every once in a while.)


All the other things I bought were from various stores and such that didn't have any websites or online...things. And my camera is icky. So I'll see if I can get those up at some point.

再见 xx

Oh goodness....

See, here's the problem with trying to be an overachiever (which I am not by any measure): stress. This is the most stressful year of my life. I mean, hey, I even got shingles (that nasty version of chicken pox that old people get), which is caused exclusively by stress. Well, that and having gotten a chicken pox vaccine in childhood which had a live form of the virus. Not to mention the stress acne. I'm not one to really stress (haha) about my skin, so it doesn't bother me too much, but come on, life, why does this happen? See, the problem with me is that I get so overwhelmed by the littlest things. It's gotten to the point where I'd rather go home than hang out with my friends, if only so I can have an hour or two to relax before my parents get home and start nagging me. It's terrible. If the me of last year looked at the me of now, I don't know what she'd think. I don't know what I think.

All I can tell is that I really, really, really need a break. And come summer I'll probably be too worried about next school year to be able to relax. Or I'll sit around and do nothing and get depressed. And gain shittons of weight, which is what I tend to do when I have no motivation to go out and do something. Which brings me to my next point, this lovely thing I like to call stress eating. Basically eating instead of doing any work. Because I can. Which is incredibly unhealthy. And add that to not having any time for excercise, which is really a lie because I definitely have time, I just like convincing myself I have too much other stuff, and you get a very unhappy me. Who is stressed about her weight and still has her mother glaring at her and telling her she should get more excercise. 

Phew. Long post. And now I must stop griping.

Au revoir xx

In the Sun

Guess who's got a new single out? Only my favourite people ever. That being She and Him, or Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward. They're fantastic.
Here you go:
