Spring Lust
So over the past few months, I've become consumed with certain trends. These are my must have's (or must create) for Spring;
Elin Kling's neck ring design created for H&M (only sold in Sweden, which is a huge disappointment).. but I'm dead set on finding a similar design.
White blazer. I've been unlucky finding this perfect little number.. the ones I do seem to stumble across are either embellished with something, or cropped WAY too short.. one day soon I will have the perfect white blazer.
Crystal bullet necklace. I've found a couple designs on Etsy, but alas all others found via interweb are WAY out of my price range... I foresee a DIY project on the way...
CABLE KNIT SHORTS. Best creation ever made in my opinion. You get the comfort, the style, and the warmth!! Urban is selling a fantastic pair priced at $138 (ouch) which I cannot justify. I'm needing to find a pair of skilled knitting hands to make me my own custom pair!!
Ear Cuffs. Adorned in their own right.. and just plain cool. I haven't seen anything quite like these ones, however.
A leather bustier. So simple & sexy. Paired with high-waisted patterned drop crotch pants.. how could you go wrong?
Candy colored oxfords. So cute, and so fitting for spring/summer months.
Black lipstick. I love the severity of this look when paired with camel/nude pieces.
Leather shorts. I don't really think it's necessary for me to explain why I need a pair of these.
Jeffrey Campbell's Litas. The perfect combination of tough & feminine... can be worn with practically anything.
Velvet dress. I've already a pair of leggings that I wear way too often. I could live & breath in velvet for the rest of my life!
Turbans, turbans, turbans! These head accessories are so fantastic. Especially while you're trying to grow out your fringe like I am at the moment. Or if you're just plain having a bad hair day.
What are your favorite trends at the moment?

Feeling rather insightful as of late
I know who I am, & i'm always me. I am sensitive, I am mildly immature, but I am real. I value my life, and all the indcredible people that have impacted it. Lessons learned from the absent-minded, morals gained from the unconventional. I know that people will tear me down & hurt my pride. Maybe they won't like me, or understand me, but not every chance belongs to me. At least I can say I relished in the moments of being myself & risked being completely cut open. To my understanding, that is freedom.
"...choose to believe in your own myth
your own glamour
your own spell
a young woman who does this
(even if she is just pretending)
has everything...."
-Francesca Lia Block
"There can be a fine line between being courageous in following your dreams and being self-destructive in the service of ego, greed, and approval. But then, my mother never told me that if I did everything I was programmed to do and chased all the things I was supposed to chase-and wear, and be without ever developing a true and unshakable sense of self, I'd crash into a million pieces one day when something went wrong." -Kelly cutrone
Some people have to find things out the hard way.
