QUESTIONS:
MUSE? Kristina H. I thought about this for a good minute and Ms. Kiki is the only person I get style inspiration from on a regular basis. Other then that it changes from week to week.
FAVORITE ITEM? At the moment its a c and c black tanktop. It's so comfortable and goes with everything. So boreing I know. Besides that it would be my new very high wicker wedges that have lavander ties on them! My gold heels are pretty amazeing too!
GUILTY PLEASURE? discount shopping!!!!!! Ross and TJ max. I ussually go every week. I'm also addicted to the most random websites. Apartmenttherapy.com, ohnotheydidnt, perezhilton, flickr. I love celeberty gosip! Magazines! The OC! Laguna Beach! Anthing dramatic with beautiful looking people. I also like looking at beautiful peoples myspace pages!

PICTURES TO COME!!!!!!!!!!!!

PERFECTLY PERFECT PERFECTNESS...

DEAREST JAMIE-O,

for me, the blog looks perfect....shiny and new and contemporary. the colors are gorgeous...it is perfect. love it. now if only there could be more purpose....like the fabulous Yvan "FACEHUNTER" he is seriously the most amazing character of fashion I have come across in a long time (character, because he dresses himself in a neuvo 19th century gentleman style, top hat and all)...and so many look to him because he shows 'EYE CANDY TO THE FASHION HUNGRY.' which all on its own is quite a fabulous statement...but i am very hungry for style candy...so that's perfect.

I have become obsessed with fashion bloggers...online trend spotting. if only i myself could be worthy of being photoed for any such online blog. that would be hilarious....i think my style is still too comfortable.......I blame the united states!!!!!! Many of the photographed stylish people are completly whack...there styles are waaaaaay out there...it is a way of dressing that we don't see too much of in Tampa....flip flop, A&F, AE land. blah blah The styles of the northern countries are most interesting, Stockholm, London, and Reykjavik....my theory...it is so damn cold there nearly the whole year...they spend so much time inside to come up with fantastic clothing combinations, they make outradeously fantastic art, and the best music.....music from these cold countries is ridiculously well made and amazingly fresh, new and unique. love love love

so if I was interviewed by the Face Hunter what would I say....

QUESTIONS:
MUSE? Brigitte Bardot....understated as well as obvious sex appeal. Love the fluffy ponytail look and gingham fabric.
FAVORITE ITEM? my red high heels, paired with matching red lipstick. guys can't handle this look...they ask me to tell other girls that this look is over the top sexy.........why should i share my secret???......that's my allure
GUILTY PLEASURE? stalking friends and strangers on myspace...it is crazy how much unnecessary information you can learn about people....but sometimes you come across some interesting. also reading random people's blogs...there are a few I have to check everyday or so...Kittygenius.com, and camillaengman.com (hers is the best....i have gotten so much inspiration and been introduced to so many artists and art sites because of her)

Jamie...how would you answer? and what are some more interesting questions that should be asked to complete stranger fashionistas? hahaha how much fun would it be to run around stopping interesting people at cool events or on the street!!!

oh p.s. have you seen letterstomarcjacobs.blogspot.com .....this lady is too sweet writing letters to Marc Jacobs...cute.

kisses from kiki

NOSE GIRL WITH A PEARL EARRING

deer kristina,
The movie "what dreams may come" made be cry like a baby for a couple of hours. I hate when movies do that to me. Have you seen the Pursuit of happiness. I had the same boo hoo reaction. I have been watching awesome movies lately. I saw 'Infamous" today and Nathan and I loved it and highly recomend it. It's the movie about truman capote. We also have volver, but have not seen it yet. I will try and hold on to it and maybe I can take it to you for you to watch.

I watched the show about the pussy cat dolls tonight. I think I'm hooked. I used to dream of being a pussy cat doll about 8 years ago, back when all they did was naghty dancing.

I took off from work today. I'm still recovering from being hit over the head with one of those glass plates that go inside of a microwave. Damn 10 year olds!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw grindhouse this weekend. Watching two movies was just tooo much. So of course I took a lil nap during the second film. They were fun movies though. Basically cute girls kicking butt. I think you would enjoy.

I leave you with cuteness!!!!!!!!

WHAT DREAMS MAY COME...

I want to dancing around in paintings when I die. That movie is so beautiful. I just haven't decided yet which painting I would want to live in....hmmmmm

oooo and I just found a Stockholm Streetstyle website. Stockholmers are so dang cool.
http://stockholmstreetstyle.feber.se/feber/ check that out Jamie!!!!!!! I can't wait to go there again. I hope I get into grad school there so I can live there in the cold north and where stylish winter clothes and coats. You can't wear coats in Florida...it just seems so strange and unnecessary.

thecobrasnake.com ............I haven't yet figured out this site yet. who are these wacky people? all i know is that it is going to become your new obsession Jamie...on the same level as Perez Hilton.

p.s. I spend far too much time obsessing over other people's artwork and style and don't work on my own. I went to the library yesterday and got books on Vermeer and the Mona Lisa. Lately I have been very interested in the traditional painting style. 'Girl with a Pearl Earring' is such a beautiful painting.

I think I would like to recreate those two paintings. I haven't painted in oils in forever and I crave it. I just need to find a time and place. My room is too nice now to paint with oils in. but blah blah yay for art.

FAR TOO MUCH

I have come accross so many wonderful sites and photos this week that it will be impossible to remember them all.

check out the cheeky shirts and accessories from LOCHER'S (http://www.lochers.com/index.html)......I enjoy the 'WILL FUCK FOR SHOES' shirt.............just brilliant mix of clean/dirty girl

and the amazingly cute bags from EMMA GORDON (http://www.emmagordon.co.uk/) they are just precious.
also I just now realized how wonderful anthropologie is...they have some really beautiful items (http://www.anthropologie.com/jump.jsp?itemID=0&itemType=HOME_PAGE)

and photos..... I have been busy fiddling with some photography lately. I even posted some on ETSY...so we'll see.




I have really been interested in photography lately...I even considered purchasing a manual or toy camera such as the Holga because they produce such delicious images......but I decided it is just as fun to manipulate them in photoshop...so I gave the above images dark edges and some blurring to look similar to a holga photograph...yet possibly a little more polished.

other people's photos that I have encountered are even more delicious....but flicker won't let me show them to you...i'll get back to that later.

JAMIE-O HAVE YOU SEEN H&M'S LITTLE ONLINE FASHION MAGAZINE...it is quite loverly! (http://www.eyemagonline.net/core/main_hmmag_2007.php?PROJECTNR=100015&SITEID=9b69b&market=en_US) check that out!!!


hmmmmmmmmm what else? I haven't posted anything in forever...I am such a dingdong...i was just not signing in correctly so I got a little frustrated and gave up. I shall have to clean up my room so that i can post new pictures of how it looks since I painted my furniture gold and put up new frames and photographs.

ciao ciao
