Today Was Great And Here's a List

And I will give you readers a bulleted list:

• Use Somebody video was on VH1. I don't like VH1....I don't like the whiny music videos they play in the morning, and it actually makes me sad that KoL is SOOO mainstream that they're on VH1's morning Jumpstart, however seeing Caleb before 7am will make me forget all that.
• We had a rep lunch at Ra Sushi in Midtown. I've been dying to get sushi for-e-ver, and this was delish. And free.
  
• Another rep meeting at Starbucks this afternoon.
• A representative I've been in email contact with re: a work project called ME just to tell me she thought it was cool that I was emailing my contacts from the Agency asking for networking assistance to find a job. She said she admired my balls. Nice.
  
• I got to work on my project for a faaaaaaaaabulous fake client, Bloomingdale's.
  
• I had 4 cups of coffee in total for the day and was bouncing in my seat all day, giggling at everything. I usually have one cup in the morning and stick to tea. I was literally vibrating.
  
• We sang Miley Cyrus "Party in the USA" in the office.
• After work drinks with co-workers before an Association event.
• At said event, there was a hot guy with a beard.
  
• Pizza for dinner.
  
• I loved my outfit today. Narcissistic? Guilty.
  
• I get to sleep in tomorrow.

peace and blessings

Loves It

Recently received mass email from office manager:

What could be more perfect than this fall weather? Cake! Here’s why:

• It’s been a while
• Nancy’s birthday was the 8^th
• Resident fashionistas have not sustained back injuries from the September issue of Vogue
• My car’s sunroof is working again

Morning Commentary

When I leave my house 5 minutes late, I am 25 minutes late to work. I'm telling you, traffic BLOWS.

I had the most bizarre and kind of unsettling dream last night. It was about my best friend from high school who has become estranged the last....3 years. I don't remember the last time I talked to her. There was no big blow-up, just kind of a phasing out of communication, and no one knows why. Anyway....so in my dream we were together, and it was really weird....another kid I know in high school was there, and we took and walk together. Just strange all around. I definitely woke up in a funk.

In happier news....tights weather is here!! At least the the mornings. I wore a skirt with bare legs yesterday, and my teeth were rattling as I walked from the parking garage to the office building. So this morning I broke out my PURPLE tights. Today's ensemble is a black, form-fitting jersey dress, black fitted blazer, purple tights, light blue pashmina scarf and gold jewelry with black satin ballet flats. J'adore. I have a work event later tonight, so it took me more time to decide on an outfit this morning than most. Maybe that explains my tardiness....

I will need to replenish my tights supply for the fall/winter. I wore most of my pairs to bare threads last season.

Random...but does anyone see the resemblance here:


Or is it just me?

Obviously

Eleven days 'til Kings of Leon. What better way to celebrate than with a sexy, sweaty, hairy Caleb?

There's no better way...you hear me?




And for good measure, I'm going to throw in a
picture of older bro, drummer, Nathan, who describes himself on his Twitter page as "a drummer, lover, smoker, drinker and a thinker." How is that NOT attractive?

What a talented, good looking family.

Hot French Bitches

1. Catherine Deneuve. Another one of my fabulous femme role models. Look at this photo. I die over it. Louis Vuitton luggage, looking fabulous at 60+. She is too fierce for words. My first experience with Madame Deneuve was in French class when we watched "Les Parapluies de Cherbourg." It's a musical. In French. What else to you need to know to tell you it's simply magnifigue?
Catherine is hot, even at 65 years old. She's never had work done....she's just French.

2. Yoann Gourcuff. He plays football (soccer....) for Bordeaux. I don't really have a whole lot else to say except for......duh. French football players; there's not a lot of explanation needed.

"And You Miss, Are No Lady"

Not a whole lot to report on. Well that's a lie. I've been doing things, just not big things.

Yesterday I went to the Road to Tara Museum in Joooooonesboro, Georgia. Jonesboro is an interesting place, to put it mildly. The old railroad depot of the town has been converted to their Visitors Bureau, as well as the "official" Gone With the Wind museum. Very much a small Southern town, where the War Between the States is taken quite seriously. I think I read the phrase "The Civil War" ONCE. Every other time it was "The War Between the States." Because there was nothin' CIVIL about it. Welcome to Georgia.

Here, learn:

• Margaret Mitchell wrote GWTW as a literary tribute to her ancestral home
• Margaret based her description of Tara on her grandparent's home, The Fitzgerald House, which was located in Jonesboro county on Tara Road. *connect the dots, people*
  

I brought a camera, but when I arrived I discovered there was no memory card, sadly. I wasn't too heartbroken, though. The costumes on display were only reproductions, which were lovely but I wanted to see the real green ecru silk organza Barbeque Dress, the green Portieres Dress and the Burgundy Velvet Birthday Party Dress. There were still neat things in the little museum, though. Original props from the film and personal items from Margaret Mitchell.

I watched Gone With the Wind for the first time on a rainy Saturday when I was in 3rd grade. I remember it completely. My mom has a brick from Loews Theatre in Atlanta where the 3-day premiere event was held. She's read the book 6 times, I've only read it once. (Though now might be a good time to re-visit it). I ADORE Gone With the Wind.

Scarlett is all the woman I want to be. Tough as nails, opinionated, not afraid to work hard,not afraid to be ungraceful and not afraid to use her feminine wiles to get her way.

She was the original Fierce Bitch.

Bow down.

Cameroooooon

Perez had a tweet about the First Lady of Cameroon, and I was intrigued.

Check out this fierce bitch
Shall we recap? Homegirl...

• is wearing a purple & green floral printed suit
• is carrying a royal purple Chanel handbag
• is sporting pearl earrings the size of gumballs
• has long Bon Qui Qui style nails
• what is there to say about her HAIR? Straight up Tina Turner. Work it.
  
• has drawn-in eyebrows
• and bright pink lipstick

.....and is still considered a dignitary. She's my new hero. Go 'head girl.

Just. Sex.

Jak + Jil Went Up a Hill to Find Some Fabulous Clothes

Jak + Jil is one of my favorite fashion photog blogs.* I especially love the shots of models in between shows, because one of my dreams is to someday look as cool as an off-duty model. I digress....

Recently, this fabulous shot was shown on their site

Do you die? I die.

Distressed light denim and VELVET BLUE LOUBOUTINS. Do I need to explain to you how fabulous this is? It truly is fashion for f*cks sake.






*Other great fashion photog blogs include The Sartorialist and Garance Doré who is a fantastically witty French fashion journalist. Click for links. I linked you to Garance's French site, because you half-asses need to learn.

WHY IS SHILOH JOLIE-PITT WEARING BOY'S CLOTHES????

I Ain't Sayin' She a GoldDigga

Readers, meet Amber Rose. She is Kanye's.....ladyfriend.

I don't know what it is about her, but I want to be her. She's a brick house and then some. And she's all famous for nothing and a total fame whore and I admire the bitch for that.

(isn't it obv how bored I am?)

Fave Seinfeld Moment

OMFGG

Time for Gossip Girl, friends and lovers!

As you know I watch my episodes Tuesday nights on iTunes, and this week was no different.

We saw the return of the diabolical Georgina Sparks (wooooo) played by Michelle Trachtenberg who makes me want. to. vomit. In my personal opinion she cannot act, and I don't think she's pretty. There, I said it.

Nice to see Vanessa got rid of the dreds. Maybe it was a "look" for another gig?

Serena is wearing considerably less makeup this season than past. I notice this because last fall I sat at my vanity stool asking myself, WWSW- What Would Serena Wear? (on her face, that is). I always liked her eye makeup. Snaps to the makeup artiste. Now she's doing this....fresh faced "natural" look which is cool and all, and I went through that phase, but then I quickly exited it when I realized it would be a shame to waste all the fabulous makeup I have accumulated. I told you I was a makeup whore.

Chuck is looking less....swarthy lately. I read somewhere that Ed Westwick is hoping to lose weight. THANK GOD. Have you seen him without a shirt on? Pillsbury, straight up, y'all.

Bree Buckley still irritates me. What show is that actress from? Ew. Nate is being très boring. Speaking of boring and ugly, UM SCOTT WHAT GROSS. That's all I'll say.

I have 2 problems with Dan in this ep. 1) uhh, headbands are for whenever you damn want, loser. 2) Waking up next to Georgina is narsty.

I've been re-watching Season 1, and I can't wait for it to dip into cooler temps and I can break out some colored tights! I was allllllllllllllllll about some colored & patterned tights last year, so much so I had to trash some of them because I wore 'em so often. J'adore.

C'est tout, mes cheries. Now go frolick and walk children in nature.

Do Yo' Thang, Honay

Lady Gaga was recently photographed for OUT magazine by famous photog Ellen von Unwerth (Google her if you're ignorant) who is known for her risque erotic-inspired shots.

You know that Lady Gaga helps my world go round, so don't hate, 'preciate what the Lady has done.

Sassy MotherF*cker

Making sure the beard is up to par.

It is. I mean, look at it.

I'm seeing these beasts live October 9th.

Who Else Wants to Be Rihanna?

uhh, I want to be Rihanna. I want to be that fierce, and be the hot girl in a rap gang. But I'm white, and not up to her level of fierceness, so it probably won't be happening. Like....look at her motherf*cking glasses! And her hair! You can't deny this shit is great. And Kanye, I'm real happy fo' you, and I'ma let you finish....but Jay-Z is the best rapper of all time!

I'ma Let You Finish Rainin' Buuuuuuut

So Atlanta is being swept away. Actually, (fingers crossed) everything is fine right now, but that was not the case yesterday.

I woke up Monday morning and it was raining men outside. I was upset because all I want to do on rainy days is watch bad tv and eat bad food. Not drive to work and get my feet wet. So it was surprising when my local NBC news station was over-riding the Today Show with weather coverage! Some lanes were blocked on one of my routes to work, so I just went in an hour and a half late not thinking anything of it. Then around 2pm, I'm notified that I can't get home. Repeat....I can't get home. There is no street going in to my neighborhood that was not flooded. So I had to stay downtown last night in a hotel. I thought it was going to be fun at first, but it was just lonely, and this very expensive hotel did not even have BRAVO or the CW! So I couldn't watch RZoe or Gossip Girl. I was forrrrrrrrreal pissed off. I had a bizarre night's sleep. I dreamt I was hanging out with the Followill bros from KoL, which I suppose is not so much bizarre as really f*cking awesome. Then I decided to take the day off from interning. I didn't feel super and I wasn't sure how the weather was going to turn out today.

Roads are still flooded, and it's supposedly going to still rain this week. Lord have mercy.

But I will leave you with these masterpiece:


How could I not?

Oh Gurl YES I Did Gurl

Abercrombie & Fitch is suing BEYONCE over copyrighted fragrance name.
(click for article at WWD)

See, what had happened wuz..... Beyonce announced she is releasing a fragrance named SASHA FIERCE, after her diva-is-a-female-version-of-a-hustla alter ego. Did you know A&F had a fragrance called FIERCE already? Actually I did, but we won't get into why I know that.

Well...
Abercrombie gets all up in her bidnazz and goes, "oh girl no you di'nt"

and Bey swivels her head and snaps her finger and screams, "oh hale yes I juss DID!"

I'm pretty sure that's how it went down.

she will probably cut you

In related news, homegirl worked it like the rent was due for her VMA performance:

Beyoncé - New Music - More Music Videos

Tine Turner, is that you!?!?

Papa-Paparazzi

I just watched my iTunes ep of the Gossip Girl season premiere. It was...good. I love the show, obviously, but I wasn't floored. Maybe I'm becoming a cynic. But you know I enjoyed zero commercials!

All the boys have swept-back hair, did anyone else notice that? Dan looks like he beefed up, too.

UGH "Bree Buckley" are you joking? I can't.

Vanessa's dreds look....dreadful. Sorry, I couldn't help myself. As Dwight from the Real HotMesses of ATL would say, "how dreadful." Thanks Dwizzle.

I want Blair's brocaded dress. I will hunt for it later. Serena is still Serena....boobs to her chin with lots-o-hair extensions.

LOVE Jenny's hot pants in the beginning. If I were 15, in a rock band and oh yeah, had legs a mile long I would totally wear them too.

I'm just....not inspired. Sorry this post isn't exciting. Don't get me wrong, I'm completely obsessed with the show....I will have watched some of all 3 seasons in within 24 hours tonight: I watched season 2 on my iPod while I worked out, I just watched s3 premiere, and I watch a few eps of season 1 on DVD before I go to bed. I'm fan.

I'm just too bored to have a moody, snarky Braditude right now.

PS: Lady Gaga's song Paparazzi has been in my head all day.

"I'm Drunk at Voooooogue" -Carrie Bradshaw

holy god, Carine. You look like a crack whore hustlin' for her next hit, but I don't care, je vous adoooooore.

VMA WTF OMG INBD

Just un petite commentaire sur le MTV Video Music Awards.

Can MTV even legitimately have a Video Music Awards? They show videos at the buttcrack of dawn in the morning. I only saw half of the videos presented because I wake up early for work and turn over to AMTV. Moving on....

I haven't watched the whole show. For several reasons. If I had a DVR, I would have recorded it then skipped through commercials. I know I know...I'm a marketing freak and supposed to be CooCoo for Cocoa Puffs over commercials, but damnit, during my shows they made me batsh*t crazy. So I don't have a DVR, so I just catch reruns whenever I can. And you KNOW MTV reruns every awards show until you've memorized it. At least I memorized when I had to catch the reruns of the Movie Awards so I could see Kings of Leon perform. You mean you don't do that too?

So far I've seen Janet "Miss Jackson if ya nastay" 's muthaf*cking awesome MJ tribute. She really celebrated MJ. One of my bff's & I celebrated MJ everytime we went downtown for about a week after his death. That means we got drunk and danced to Billie Jean a lot in bars. Everyone caught up on that?

I also saw a video of Kanye's little bitch fit w/ Tay Swift. I think Taylor Swift is squinty and that Miss Bey's Single Ladies Video was revolutionary, but Kanye stepped the line. He is a habitual line-stepper.

I tuned in tonight to see Kings of Leon lose to Green Day for Best Rock Video. You don't need me to tell you how I feel about that.





I was also blessed to see Lady Gaga's magical performance. Homegirl is CAHRAZY but I f*cking love it. Like, she really looked possessed, did she not??






Shakira and Pink wore the same dress which is hysterical and every girls' worst fear realized.

I also wanted to include a pic of Katy Perry for no other reason than I read in an interview she gave that her & I share the same bra size. Holla back sistah.

WARNING: Do not speak to me about Gossip Girl until Wednesday morning. I'm buying the ep on iTunes tomorrow and watching it tomorrow night. I want to compile the season on my iPod like I did last year. If you spoil it for me, I will wish bad hair upon you. You've been warned.

Japanese Dogs are Silly

Someone Saw Serena Getting Off the Train at Grand Central!

9/14/2009 tomorrow Gossip Girl starts again! Like every other red blooded female in America I can't wait. You KNOW tomorrow everyone's facebook status/twitter/blog will be dedicated to Gossip Girl. YOU KNOW that shit is true.

I didn't watch the first season of GG. I was a junior in college and thought I was so above any show about high schoolers showing on the CW. How bourgeois. Then I came back from Paris and was bored out of my mind and decided to watch the first season online. Cut to four days straight of me laying on my bedroom floor on pillows watching my laptop. Uh, obsessed. Then season 2 started, and my sorority had chapter Mondays. At 8pm. Natch. So I bought all the eps on iTunes and watched them Tuesday nights. I even bought season 1 on DVD as a bday present to myself. I will probably buy the eps on iTunes again, because I like to put them on my iPod and watch them while I workout. You may steal that brilliant idea from me, if you wish.

Obviously the costuming of GG is amazing. It has revolutionized the fashion industry, to be honest. No show has had teenagers in multi-thousand dollar designer duds. And Blake Lively was on the cover of Vogue. Many designers have admitted to being fans. And once a piece is worn by a character on GG, it sells out immediately. Anna Sui is debuing a line at Target, and has said the line is inspired by our GG lovelies. Speaking of which....I will be heading to Target tomorrow after work to scope out the goods.

You know you love me,

ex oh ex oh

Merci, Sundance Channel

Staying in has its benefits, especially when "The Day Before- Gaultier" and LAGERFELD CONFIDENTIAL are both on tonight.

"The Day Before" is a documentary series following several designers in the hectic 36 hours before their runway shows. J'adore John Paul Gaultier. Yes, he's responsible for Madonna's cone-bra monstrosity, but he's SO versatile. Didjya know he's the head creative designer for Hermès? Bet you didn't! And nothing is further from cone bras than Hermès. Nothing.

And I shouldn't even have to explain my adoration of Herr Lagerfeld. You should just know.

Thank you, fashion gods. I feel the deities smiling down upon me.

"Where's the Glamour? This is VOGUE, Okay?"

Bored out of my ever-loving mind.

I worked Thursday, so that was one less lazy day around the house. I've been in contact with several families about become their after-school nanny. I need a pt job to make some cash money dollas while I'm still interning. T-minus....not that much time until my birthday and my parents cut me off. It's all so fabulously tragic.

Did nothing Friday. Worked out. One productive thing. I went to see The September Issue Friday night at a 9:55 showing. For you poor souls.....The September Issue is a documentary film following Anna Wintour and the rest of the American VOGUE staff as they prepare the largest issue of the year......yes, the September issue. I was the only one in the theatre. Imagine that.....small Georgia town, no one wanted to watch Madame Anna slash editorial shoots from Vogue? Quelle Surprise! Well, I adored it, bien sur. I got teary-eyed when the group was in Paris, scouring the couture shows for pieces to shoot. Especially because I figured out the documentary was about the Sept. 07 issue, and the couture shows are in July. I was in Paris in the summer of 2007 gallivanting through the streets and shops. Or studying....whichever. I remember trying to skip school to go to one of the couture shows, but it was impossible....at that time I was taking an intensive 3hr per day language class. Alors, pas des défilé pour moi cet été. C'etait trise.

Alorrrrrrrrrrs. Yes, The September Issue was amazing, and ignited my love for fashion. When I was in high school and up until...oh, a few months ago, I was convinced I was going to work in marketing for a major fashion house, or be a buyer for a department store. Well, then the economy took a sh*t on my dream, and reality set in that graduating from a southern state school does not open too many doors into the Fashion World. But my passion has been re-awakened, and as God as my witness, I will never go hungry again. I mean, I will work in fashion. Sorry, I had an out of body Scarlett O'Hara moment. Désolée.

Today I have done nothing again....worked out and did some yoga. I attempted to do a headstand, but failed miserably. Around Christmas last year I could do one, but at that time I was taking 4-5 yoga classes a week. Then I got in a huge fight with my roommate (who happened to be one of my instructors) and hardly ever went back. Then when I was incredibly stressed out during summer school I started up again, downloading yoga podcasts and practicing on my own. I'm trying to practice more often. J'adore yoga. It's so beneficial to me. It teaches me patience (if you know me, you know I lack any sort of patience), it's great meditation and of obviously it does wonders for your body. Core strengthening and arms and butt. Great Great Great. I highly recommend it if you've never tried it before.

I just ate a salad and watched a rerun of the Real HotMesses of ATL, and I have zero plans for tonight. I don't know what everyone's deal is. But alas, I have a pack of sour patch kids, the CURRENT Sept. Issue of Vogue to get through, and maybe I will watch some fashion documentaries on youtube. Or just watch Season 1 of Gossip Girl for the 18th hundred time.

peace and blessings

One Month From Today I'm Seeing These Sex Pots Live

That's The Ugliest Effing Skirt I've Ever Seen

Oh my God, this is too tragic for words.

Lindsay Lohan to become "artistic advisor" for UNGARO.

That is grosssss. UNGARO is a legendary Parisian couture house. LiLo is.............LiLo. Says La Lohan, "To be in a position where I’m working with a fashion house in Paris sets it apart from every other celebrity brand."

UNGARO is not a celebrity brand! Haute Couture is an ART, not a passing trend. Thousands of hours go into creating one of a kind garments. It is sanctioned by the French Government, for Christ's sake!

Sorry, I get very combative about couture. Don't get me wrong, I actually adore Lindsay in all her f*cked up glory. But this is too much for me to handle.

You Have Like, a Major Braditude Right Now

Gahhh Rachel Zoe I loooove her.
I mean, come on. She's 95lbs, has huge ginormous hair, bigger sunglasses, wears tranny shoes and has like 12 Birkin bags. What's not to love? I wish I could wear the shoes she does. But I'm like 5'9", and homegirl don't need to be boppin' around in 6 inch heels.

Uhm, her and Bethenny from The Realhousewives of NY are having a virtual bitch-fight via Twitter today. How random. And immature. Really ladies, really?

Anyway, I wish her assistant Brad liked girls because
I think he is cah-ute.
Well I can think he's cute even though he's gay. There's nothing wrong with that. I kind of have a crush on the 1987 version of George Michael. But that's another issue for another time.
But let's be honest, I could never date someone with better fashion sense than I do. And boyfriend's got a bangin' wardrobe. Ah well, c'est la vie.

I just love Rachel's style, and how it fluctuates between 60's boho crunchiness, and 70's Studio 54 cocaine goddess. AHHHHH I just figured out what I'm being for Halloween. And her voice absolutely KILLS me. Dead on the floor. Her inflection and tone sound EXACTLY like a girl I'm friends with from back in college.

Can't you just hear her now?
"Tay. Tay. Like, what is happening? Like, I can't even comprehend this insanity-banana-ness. Tay. Fix this. I can't.....even deal with this right now. Tay."



gah J'adore her.




Okay enough about RZoe. Work is slammed. We're supa busy. I still need a big girl job. I watched a great ep of Law & Order SVU tonight and worked out AND did yoga. Go me!

kay peace out lovelies. xoxo

Roll Tide!

I moonlighted as an Alabama football fan this weekend. Bama played VaTech at the Georgia Dome, and the Crimson Tide descended upon our fair city. A's roommate & friends went to Alabama, and several of their sorority sisters and other friends came into town to stay at their apartment.

Friday night was mexican + bars (per usual). A & I met up with a new friend of ours and had some wine at his apartment before headed to the B-Head bars. The bars were slam packed. Sex on Fire came on in Churchill's, and I texted my bff T. "your sex is on fire," and she told me it made her entire night. T is flying down to go to the KoL concert with me Oct. 9th. I'm so excited I can barely contain myself. But I digress.....

After a slight mishap Saturday morning regarding me shacking and my phone not cooperating, there was some drama revolving around a grill needed for the tailgate. But everything got sorted out, and there was just some minor violence. Kidding. We piled in cars and drove to the MARTA station to ride downtown to the GA Dome. Drinking on public transportation is always a great idea. We brought liquor drinks in cups, no joke.

We schlepped our gear down the street to the tailgate park, and HOLY HELL. Alabama football is just on a whole other level than anything I'd experiences before. And I went to a Southern School, y'all. These people are FANS. People calling out "Roll Tide" to strangers on the street. We set up our tailgate and the drinking began. "Bama Bombers" are maraschino cherries soaked in Everclear. Vodka soaked raspberries. I start in too early on the vodka raspberries and was a little touch-and-go at about 2pm. I seriously considered taking a nap in the back of the car, but then realized that was totally lamo and I needed to play like a champion. I chugged 2 bottles of water, took half and Adderol and 2 Aleve and I was ready to rock and roll. I brought my own bottle of wine, so I decided it was a better idea to stick to my own poison. At around 5pm was when shit started getting sloppy. These Southern boys love their bourbon, and it was starting to show. Dark liquor hits me like a ton of bricks, so I usually stay away from it. Our tailgate spot was perfection. Everyone in the park was around our age....most were out of school. Cute cute cute boys. Seriously.

Around 7 we packed up camp and headed to TacoMacs, a bar near the Dome to catch the game and drink more. I was kept in a steady stream of vodka + tonics thanks to our bomb-ass waitress Tina. She's amazing, everyone. If you're ever at TacoMacs, get Tina. I ordered french fries and only ate about half. I don't think I had a solid meal that yesterday. I snacked on pound cake for breakfast, and some cheese straws at the tailgate.....and that was about it. I did force-feed myself a hotdog bun.

Alabama won the fball game, and we had a hell of a time getting a cab back to A's apartment. We were wandering around downtown Atl with the herd of displaced masses, and FINALLY found a cab. Praise Jesus. Then I slept on the floor in A's room, because there was nowhere else to go. Literally.

So now I'm back after my short little "vacation" to B-Head this weekend. Ready to relax and detox. Such a fabulous weekend! Roll Tide!

It's the Weekend!

Time to Rock and Roll, bitches

(some) Drugs Are Bad, Mmmkay? A Pictoral Lesson:

This is a lesson in reverse.

What have we all learned here today?



*disclaimer: I would like the state for the record I am fully attracted to all manifestations of this man. 70s mustache, coked-out skinny weird hair phase, and this latest SEXY ASS GRANOLA BEARD phase. Thank you for your time & attention.

Don't EVEN Call Me a Recessionista

Ugh. So i'm obv not impoverished, but it's how I feel at the moment.

I'm currently an unpaid intern at a fabulous Marketing Agency. However my darling parents informed me I was being cut-off on my birthday, which is in approx 2.5 months. So I will not be purchasing the Louis Vuitton bag I had previously died over. I'm going to ........*gulp*.............save..............my graduation money, until my employment situation is more stable.
Gross. Fiscal Responsibility is too disgusting for words right now. The really sad part is, everyone else thinks I should save it too. I just need ONE person to support me and say, "Go E! Go buy your Louis Vuitton! Hold your head high knowing you're a walking contradiction....an unpaid intern with a fabulous bag! Do it!" But no one is saying that. Maybe I need to find new, irresponsible friends.

Speaking of employment situations, I humbled myself and went trolling for part time jobs to, as my parents put it, "contribute" to supporting myself. I don't even want to talk about it. I came home with a migraine.

Anticipating, Waiting

Ohh Wednesday. Hump Day?

Alright. Dreary morning, as it has been the last 3 mornings now. Dreary morning that turns into a dreary day. Doesn't bother me too much, except some mornings on my drive in, all I want to do is turn around and stay in bed watching shows on Bravo all day.

So last night we had a fabulous dinner at Pozole in the Highlands for A's bday. I had friend shrimp tacos which were dece. Before dinner I killed some time in Lenox....bought some nail polish and cheapy sunnies à la Rachel Zoe, who happens to be my current life idol. I also paid the Ralph Lauren store a visit. A woman in there said she liked my earrings, holla.
Then I went and played in Louis Vuitton. There may be a new addition to my family in the form of a Louis purchase. I'll keep you updated.

Happy Hour after work! Weekend plans in the next post...

keep it real everyone
