4 ways to wear your fringe
i’m quite boring when it comes to my fringe (bangs). when they were straight i always wore them straight, and now that they’re side swept, they’re usually side swept. unless i’m too lazy to wash them, then i twist and pin them to the side.
with a little bit of inspiration from these photos, i’ll finally try something new. please excuse the gaudy hair...
not sure how i feel about the new layout. don’t like that there isn’t a spot for a title or banner. what do you think?

Nomads Travel Safely
“The work of David Vandewal and the photographer Mark Segal. Yes at first glance it looks as though puzzle pieces are falling from clouds. However, take each individual item and recognize the eye sore that will conquer winter layer boredom.” {amongthewillows}

little monsters.
d and i went to lady gaga’s show last night, and it was amazing! i wouldn’t call myself a devoted fan of her music but after seeing her perform, i’m sold. gaga is a fantastic performer, and needless to say has an amazing voice.
she engaged the audience quite frequently, had tons of costume changes (and integrated it into the show well), incorporated a story into the...

good dag.
george is finally learning to be a good dag. we started a “growly dog” class last week. there are 7 dogs in the class who can’t handle being around other dogs. by the end of the 6 week course george should, hopefully, be able to see other dogs and not want to taste their blood. and possibly in the distant future, he can make other dog friends.
stay tuned for his weekly...

lazy sunday.
{wearing: the usual sweater, f21 sunglasses}
i’ve been obsessing over braids for some time. i especially love the heidi look and my hair is almost long enough to replicate it!
the boyf and i had the rare opportunity to have the deck to ourselves. sipping some rose and reading a book in the sun is the perfect way to end a weekend.
now its time for some true blood and madmen.

there are a few types of clothing that i’ve always deemed as forbidden. the above are all on that list. double patterns, denim on denim, and tie dye.
