Tights!

That's something I did for my fashion journalism class. Click to enlarge it!

I can't wait for the weather to get colder, just so I can wear tights more often. I really want to take advantage of Urban Outfitters' 2 for $20 deal. Unfortunately, the website doesn't have those total Chanel rip-off tights that are black on one side and pale on the other. So sad! I can't wait for...

1) Ripped tights a la Alexander Wang: (Hooray for cheap drugstore pantyhose!)

2) Lace tights from UO:

3) What do you think about these floral tights from Forever 21?

My autumn-inspired summer look

The problem with living in California is that everybody buys their fall/winter outfits in August and can't wear them until October. This is an outfit inspired by the Gucci collection I've been raving about, but actually worn on a 90-something degree day.

H&M one-shoulder top, thrifted/DIY skirt, vintage Moschino belt, Urban Outfitters sandals, Gap bag.

I'm really not looking forward to going back to school. The only thing I'm looking forward to is having an apartment, but not really, because I have no intention of cooking or cleaning. Okay, maybe cleaning, because that's kind of necessary, I guess, but you know what I mean. Chores. Not cool. I guess I can just focus on the (very few) lovely things about southern California. The beaches, for instance (Newport Beach being the closest):

And LA, I guess. Although I hate driving, so my lazy bum will have to wait for some other people to take me :) Here's a phone picture I took from a car in May:

I'll be winding down my oh-so exciting Sunday night by reading Sam Kashner's Marilyn Monroe article in this month's Vanity Fair. I swear I've seen Gentlemen Prefer Blondes like five times this summer. Now, I'll leave you with a picture of me being my terribly attractive self.
