Harem Pants & Flowers

"MY STYLE — IT’S BLACK, AND IT’S EXPENSIVE." --matt healy



"I WANT TO HAVE MORE SEX, TRAVEL MORE, DRINK MORE WINE AND LOVE LIFE." --Zoe saldana


You know those days when you wake up and are not sure if what's on your head is hair or a giant mass of stringy straw? I like to take those bad hair days and make them seem intentional. With my short hair finally able to get into a little ballet bun, this style makes for a sleek and quick fix to messy hair. Accent it with red lips, bronze blush high on the cheek bones and a chunky earring and you've got yourself a look! 



"I KNOW PRETTY MUCH WHAT I LIKE AND DISLIKE; BUT PLEASE, DON’T ASK ME WHO I AM." --sylvia plath


This beautiful long cut sweater is perfect for almost any outfit. It flatters forearms and balances the inch of revealed skin (and belly ring) from the floral crop top. When the sweater comes off, the best thing about this crop top is the elegantly cut back. 



The sun simply wouldn't allow me to take any better of photos....but I'm in love with these black cotton harem pants. I balanced their billow with some black suede booties.

Glam Fur


A Smoker’s plea to the Universe (and herself)

we smoke down to the filter
as if we have renewable lungs 
but we recycle the empty packs
because we’d rather
kill ourselves
than the earth. 


Picked up this beautiful black fur piece at a vintage store in Belmont yesterday. It was the perfect touch for the art gallery concert I went to last night. It kept me warm outside and feeling glamorous inside!

Wide Eyed & On My Way


"BE CRUMBLED.
SO WILD FLOWERS WILL COME UP WHERE YOU ARE.
YOU HAVE BEEN STONY FOR TOO MANY YEARS.
TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT. 
SURRENDER." --Rumi



It's safe to say that with January a death and darkness has seeped into my life. It's safe to say that some terrible and negative things have been effecting me every second of every day. It is also safe to say that I am doing everything I can to cleanse myself spiritually, love who I am and be happy. For me, part of that is leaving the house feeling powerful (like I could kill a man) and leather and creepers will always do that for me.

On My Way
By: Dana Alsamsam

why is it
that I love you most
at my darkest moments?

why do my fingers ache
after I write you
out of me?

why does my brain tell me
that all the answers are written
on your heart in braille?

I don't have to touch it to know
that the answers lie not
within you, 
but within myself. 

all I have to do
is let the sun shine through my chest
run through every vein
and begin searching

I am wide-eyed 
and on my way.
