inaugural ball

here's a good old picture: this is me at my school's party for obama's inauguration. the purse is a
treasured little marc jacobs thing i got from my cousin a few years ago. the belt is vintage.

recessionista 2

this dress was sheer craze. the colors are a bit wild together but the whole effect was incredibly rich-looking.


wish i had clearer pictures than these!

pink rainy day

dressed for a rainy day, from february or maybe early march:

two pairs of tights to brave the cold, of course.


here are my earrings...they are little wolves. every female science teacher i've ever had wore things like this. good stuff.

recessionista

the student fashion show this term was called recessionista. i've been involved with most of the shows since i've been at university so it was nice to just watch. i got front-row tickets. here's the view of attendees from my seat:


i went with glynis. my shirt is my mom's from a while ago. glynis is wearing beads that my friend got in bhutan.

the best look in the world

i am back from an excellent spring break! i was camping, so there wasn't much going on in terms of style beyond not showering and wearing the same clothes the whole time...but just in time for april fool's day, check out the best look in the world.

random:

the first girl in the latest post by garance reminds me beyond any shadow of a doubt of one of my friends. uncanny.

taking a breather

sometimes you just have to give 'em a rest...but it's worth it.

these shoes are essential, no? h&m, i believe.

yet another tea 1

so apparently this is the year of tea parties. my friends threw a ladies' valentines day tea. everyone dressed up.

naiara, 19.
she has a great collection of dresses and flats--i wish i could photograph her every time i see her, but that would be weird. i love the print, and i love going to parties in my building because then people can wear delicate non-winter shoes.
also, i'm wondering if the dress is vintage...?
