I am not going to be afraid of color this Fall/Winter. My usual habit is to wear all black, but I am going to mix it up a bit with yellows, reds, greens...lots of color. I am excited for all the jumpers, bibbed dresses, bows, ribbons, little girl inspired details in fashion this season.
2)I have a crush. Duh, I always do, but this is the most fun crush as of yet. He is interesting, smart, funny, and sweet. Just like crushes should be. And does he know? Yes.
3)Today I spent money I shouldn't have on clothes. But hey, I needed clothes. I now fit into the smaller sizes at Forever 21, and while that makes me happy, it sucks, because now all the clothes I already owned are too big on me. I really need to figure out a good way to alter my clothes, so I don't have to go buy a whole new wardrobe. I got super soft t-shirt with puffy sleeves, a bow hair clip, and a grey hoodie with eyelet details. I almost bought this amazing, navy blue jumper, but passed. It fit almost too well, I want room to have it move a little more when I walk. I also purchased the latest copy of Nylon to read on the train for the 30 minute trip to Target, where I was dissapointed with the selection they had to offer from the current "hip" designer Paul and Joe(the collection on the actual site is great, but the stuff in the store sucked!)Target's guest designers lately seem to be hit or miss.
4)Last night, I bought a bottle of wine and creme brule ice cream. I need to do actual grocery shopping very soon. When I got home to drink the wine, I realized I didn't have a corkscrew. Now my pinot noir is sitting there looking sad at me, saying, "Drink me Amy, drink me!" Diet Coke will have to do. I am pretty much addicted to it again, and am usually hyped up at work from it. I still lay off soda for the most part, but I don't feel as guilty when it is diet.
5)Work sucked this week/weekend, but last night went fairly well. I was cut early because I was at 40 hours, but I was ok with going home at 9:30 instead of midnight. Friday night was terrible and ended in me crying my eyes out at home. I know I need a new job, but I just feel so dedicated to it, that it's really hard to just quit.
6)I had another amazing sushi lunch with Calvinyesterday, followed by coffee, the art supply store, and hanging out at his art studio for a little while. I started painting and collaging some things the other day, but then lost my inspiration. Hanging out with him brought it back, and now I am ready to go!
7)I find that writing lists always makes me feel better. Whether I am writing things I like/don't like, or making picture posts and wish lists, I always feel better afterward. And speaking of lists, here is my Amazon wishlist. I can search on there forever.
8)I have declared tonight, Philip Seymour Hoffman night! I rented Capote, and Love Liza(that Calvin recommended I watch). Phillip S. Hoffman is my god, I swear. I love any movie he is in!
9)I have Monday off. What should I do? Bubble bath and watching movies? Sewing and decorating? Hanging out with friends?
10)Oh, and I went to Corey Smith's show at Backspacethis evening. I wish I could afford his stuff!
11)I am actually really excited about seeing Marie Antoinette this month. I was wary at first, but now that I saw a longer trailer, I have more faith in it. Besides, I have always been faithful to Sofia. Sure, it's a period piece, but you can't expect Sofia to not make it fashionable and updated (soundtrack with Kevin Shields, Bow Wow Wow, and New Order, anyone?). So, who knows. I hope it is good!
12)What is something you are really into right now? A new artist or designer? What's your favorite thing to wear this time of year? Post a pretty picture!
