Today I spent the afternoon with my good pal, Jordan, to have an early birthday celebration for her. We spent many hours at the China Buffet (which is the best buffet ever and I am proud to say I'm a regular there), Goodwill, and Hastings (the best music/movies/books/basically anything store ever). It was just really great, and I'm bummed it's over already... Anywho a little bit about my outfit:
blazer: vintage, shirt worn as collar: thrifted, dress: etsy, tights: jcpenny, socks: halloween
store, shoes: sister's, belt: gift/vintage
I was going for an "if I was in a John Waters/John Hughes collaboration I'd probably look like this" look. My two main inspirations were Wanda Woodward and one of my favorite bloggers, Tiffany. (and this is a warning that this post is kind of really long, because I also mention my current inspirations blahblahblah)
there are no words to describe my love for dim sum

For once I'm excited for summer, but I know I'm going to immediately regret the feeling once it hits 100 degrees. Maybe I'm excited for summer, because that means no school, new job, my dad and I are going to open up a booth in an antique mall, and I'll be filming participants for the Do Not Enter Diaries. I've been seeing so much summer vibes lately (especially from the 70s), and even though the sun will scorch my skin, I'm ready for it. Oh, and my theatre group advanced AGAIN! (my school hasn't advanced this far since '06- IT'S A BIG DEAL GUYS) As you would say in French, c'est la vie, life is good. I mean, yeah, I loathe high school and dread homework and learning algebra and physics, but it's not too bad. (side note: i'm working on a collection of high school related posts) My current music obsessions is BLEACHED. Their debut album just came out, and it's basically the best thing ever since sliced bread.
Have a good weekend!
