Forgot to add this to the last post, but here’s my new ZARA dress! It makes me look so tan!
Hot New Finds
Here’s a little look of my newest purchases! I’m obsessed!
New Shoes! Pair of simple black heels from H&M and a cute pink and nude pair of sandals from Zara. Also bought a really cute white dress, but it’s not photographed here.
My H&M heels! So Obsessed!
New scrunched sweatpants from H&M
The whole look. All H&M.
I hate season finales…
The next week will be a very depressing time for me, this is because television seasons are coming to an end. I just finished watching the season finale of Revenge, and it was good and sad and ended on such a ‘fuck!’ moment. Next week The Vampire Diaries will end, which makes me sad, because it’s the only show that cheers me up. And I believe tonight is the series finale of my beloved 90210. I hate this time of year because all my entertainment is gone. Now I only have Game of Thrones once a week until True Blood and Pretty Little Liars start up again in June. And to be honest True Blood has begun to lose my interest. I’m not sure how much longer it can go on for, like Eric and Sookie should just stick together and Bill has gotten so whiney. As for Pretty Little Liars, three seasons have gone by and we still no absolutely nothing….Does anyone else notice this? They’ve spent all this time diverting suspicion as to who ‘A’ is and it’s just been one dead end to another. I’m getting a bit frustrated, they better quench my curiosity this season, I’ve got a long fucking summer ahead of me, and I’ll need these shows to live vicariously through since my own life is so mundane. I hope all these finales will be a satisfying end to keep me interested in the coming months.

Blonde Hair, Don’t Care
So while this blonding (play on words like bonding and dying my hair blonde) experience with me and my hair didn’t necessarily go the way I imagined. It’s kinda more blonde on the tips and roots of my hair god knows why, I wouldn’t recommend the shit I used which is L’Oreal Pre-lightening creme. When I return to PDX next week I’m just gonna find a professional to finish it off for me, otherwise, I quite like it. It’s different and kinda cool. Trying to go from black to blondish is a tedious process. Don’t ever dye your hair black…
When in Doubt
Hey all, right now I’m sitting in some posh-ass hotel in the Middle East, aka the place where no woman wants to be. First off, I would just like to say it is way to effing hot outside to tan, so much for my plan to get some colour while I’m here. Everytime I step outside I feel as if I’m walking straight into a goddamn easy bake oven. Right now, I really want to cradle a fifth of whiskey and some cigarettes. I’m not feeling too great. I feel like I’m suffering from PTSD or something…However, when in doubt, I try and turn my pain into sassy, witty blogposts so that I feel like someone is actually listening to me and I can take my frustration out on my keyboard. Also, a bright side to this is that I’ve started this terrific new diet, where I have completely suppressed my appetite. It’s really quite effective. I’ve already lost 6 pounds in two days. Still, my confidence isn’t exactly at an all time high, even if that black guy in the white Bentley just smiled at me.
Anyway, today was my first day out, so here’s a look at my outfit. I paired my Prabal Gurung blouse with my brand new nude Kurt Geiger sandals that I picked up at Heathrow, and added my favorite mustard marc by marc jacobs purse.
Tomorrow’s Mother’s Day so appreciate the lovely lady who gave birth to you. Now if you ladies and gents will excuse me, I’m about to attempt to blonden my hair and watch the latest episode of the Vampire Diaries.
Peace bitches.
2013 Met Gala: Best Dressed and Biggest Flops
This year’s Met Gala had a theme that I especially loved and was super excited to see how everyone would interpret it. The theme of course was Punk: Chaos to Couture. Badass. One of the most common names circulating the red carpet were none other than Givenchy. Givenchy exudes that dark gothic chic style that totally fit in with the theme. And while some stars thrived with their punk-inspired couture, others either completely failed or just did not understand the theme itself. Here are a few of my favorites and some of the lamest.
Faves:
Gwyneth Paltrow rocking a hot pink custom Valentino gown
Rooney Mara looking sultry in Givenchy
The older Fanning sister Dakota prevails in a sexy peek-a-boo Rodarte number
Cameron Diaz looked statuesque in this gorgeous grape Stella McCartney gown
Kerry Washington looked super cutting-edge chic in custom Vera Wang
Sienna Miller perfectly combined sexy femininity with a badass rocker edge in a white Burberry gown and a cropped studded moto jacket
Nina Dobrev was probably my favorite of the night. This is her best look yet, she definitely pulled off her edgy bustier custom Monique Lhuillier dress/jumper. Epitome of punk couture.
Fails:
For someone who prides herself in being so punk Miley Cyrus kind of shat the bed with this awkward nude/mesh Marc Jacobs dress.
Kristen Stewart looked awkward and creepy in a Stella McCartney jumper.
Elle Fanning is known for her fashion risks, and they usually never turn out well, and this Rodarte dress was no exception. Learn some style Elle.
End of the Year…Finally.
Hola
It’s been like months or something since I’ve been on here, I’ve been so busy doing that whole college thing. In four days I will officially have finished my first semester of university. Only 7 more of these puppies to go through. Even funner is two weeks after I finish this semester I’m diving right into another one! Summer school to catch up on my lateness.
Anyway, there have been several highs and lows of living here in the UK. One high I would say is it is very beautiful, despite the horrendous weather the past few months, another would be I get to spend copious amounts with my best friend and order take out and drink beer legally. Lows? Well, for one, having a roommate who redefines the word ‘obnoxious,’ never leaves the room, sheds like a dog, mouth-breathes, and chews like she’s chewing on gravel. Definitely going for a single next semester. Also, there aren’t an cup o noodles here, or pickle flavored chips. Which is really difficult to live with. When I go to America this summer I intend on filling a bag with just snacks like dill pickle lays, cup o noodles, and wasabi flavored almonds. Brits can do many things, but creating suitable flavors for chips is not one of them.
Also chicks here need to realize that spikes and studs everywhere are not in anymore. I was rockin that shit in 7th grade, then everyone started dressing all ‘badass.’ I’m really sick of the clothes here, everything looks the same. I miss nordstrom. I also miss avocados. I miss going to CPK. I am so ready to have a nice relaxing trip home.
I’ll try and keep everyone updated on my painfully mundane life…just kidding my lifes more interesting than Beyoncé so keep checkin up on me angels.
-Your friendly neighborhood whatever…
