{I Want} Free People

Everything in the new Free People catalog is amazing. I want to be in it and wear everything. Also I want to be warm, because I'm far too cold with this winter weather and my lips are chapped.

Sparkle Time

I just spent 6 hours going over outlines with Vivs at Urth and then we followed that up with a glass of wine at Cork Bar. Definitely needed. I can't really talk right now because my brain is so tired. But yay sparkles?

Sometimes You Just Need a Pick Me Up...

This week has been full of ups and downs and today was a little easier as far as that was concerned. I just had one class, came home, did the Starbucks BoGo with Gillian, napped, did yoga, had delicious saag for dinner and a glass of red wine and worked on my research memo. Now that's done and I'm breathing a little easier and am thankful that I can relax for the rest of the night. Tomorrow, I have a "business meeting," with my girl Karly at Intelligentsia (yay hipster boys!) and then planning on a "cheap ethnic dinner" with Priyah. I don't know why everything is in quotes, but just go with it. Apart from outlining this weekend, I have some wonderful things planned, including brunch with Scott and his gf on Saturday, trying to make macarons, and hanging out with Cass. Also debating the Blue and Gold Week Rally on Monday?

But back to business, more inspiration - because sometimes you just need it :-)

{Inspiration Wednesdays}

1. The new Black Keys song/video, Lonely Boy. Put me in a good mood this morning :-)


2. My friend Lorna sent me this article from The Atlantic, "All the Single Ladies." Uh, it's not what I would call inspirational, but certainly thought-provoking on the issues of single women, dating, and balancing one's career.

3. Angelina's directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey, now has a trailer. Must see.


4. Refinery29 posted about this personals website, n + 1 personals, which is sooooo funny and yet somewhat understandable, but then again also hipster-y and slightly pretentious. The blogs says: "This is a project of @nplusinterns for all you people smart enough to place an ad in the nyrb but maybe just a bit too young. We at n+1 are true believers in love, especially that which is fostered over books and, uh, beer." And some of these ads are priceless.

5. Check out these gorgeous photos from Laura Makabresku

6. I want everything from Ganni found via Wit + Delight

7. Pretty photo from Lyla and Blu

8. This fabulous dandelion installation via unruly things

9. Some seasonally appropriate photos from Folkloric. Gorgeous. Also makes me miss Santa Cruz.

10. Some pretty photos from Confetti Garden.

Pre-Hibernation Friday

I'm about to go into hibernation to study for my midterm, minus the 12 hours I have set aside to celebrate Tawsh and Jen's birthday. They are having an alter-egos and drag themed party tomorrow. I'm going as a nerd. You may ask if that is really my alter-ego, but that side of me is one that I tend to downplay for whatever reason. Plus, I have some great tweed pants and my JC flats haven't gotten nearly enough wear. Add those to some fishtail pigtails and my Warby Parkers and I'm going to be the cutest geek on the block.

Currently finishing up my property outline while eavesdropping on my mom and brother watching Bill Maher. I've missed a lot of news this week while I've been obsessing over property. Next is to memorize said outline and work on future interest problems. Also looking forward to my study sesh on Sunday with Vivs and G.

Also I've been collecting pins of outfits that I will so enjoy wearing when working on international human rights on capitals around the world.

Twinsies!

You know when you've become friends when you're on the same caffeination schedule, you make eye contact during class and know exactly what the other is thinking, when you're boy crazy but have totally different tastes, when you finish each other's sentences and when you show up to class wearing coral tops, loafers, and straight legged jeans. Which is exactly what happened to Gillian and me this week. Lolz.

{Photography} toi et moi Lookbook

via Daydream Lily.

I love everything about the Toi et Moi lookbook. The styling, the lighting... I want to be able to take photos like this... hmmm inspiration

VMAS - {Fashion} Inspiration

I don't actually like Katie Holmes all that much. But her VMA outfit has me drooling. I love her hair and dress and those mustard colored shoes are to die for. Also Beyonce is pregs!!! I'm so excited, it's kind of weird.

Fashion {Inspiration}

Pondering summertime outfits and so excited to go through my closets when I get home and rediscover some things :-)

Chillin & {Inspiration} & {Music} Tennis

Paper back. Another final down. Chinese in SoHo and a virgin apple mojito at the Breakfast Club. I'm about to pass out.
Meeting my advisor tomorrow and then hopefully will see if my ankle can make it through a normal run, although I tried today and it didn't end too well, lol. So I'll leave with you with some summery inspiration. Sleep time.
