Channeling Sports as Promised

Well, here we are. I know this is super delayed, but hey, as much as I know you sit there in front of that glowing computer screen and wait for me to share my thoughts on life and some photos of interpretive dancing with you, I've also got a whole other set of things I have to attend to. But then again, doesn't everybody? When you have a blog it's almost like having another little world that you've created for yourself and that caters specifically to your interests only. So switching from the world of "sporty-chic is so hot right now" to the world of summer, and being a teen, and eating ice cream and plowing through books like it's nobody's business can get a little bit confusing. Just like everything else in the world. I'm almost one-hundred percent positive I was a philosopher in my past life, by the way. Just saying. Anyways, as I promised yesterday, today we are channeling sports. I think I look like some sort of derelict tennis player, but thats just me. 

Sah-ry

Big apologies for failing miserably to post the outfit I was hinting at yesterday. There aren't any excuses except for the fact that I'm a large butthead. I could have used much cruder language there but chose not, for my and your sakes. Anyways, it's coming later "fo-realz" if ya know what I mean (jellybean). Fasten your seatbelts and relax until then. Colonels orders. Okay getting my haircut now...talk to ya again this evening when the long-awaited promised post has been delivered. Peace out home skillet.

Hint, Hint...

Guess, guess, guess...ready GO! Soo...what do ya think the theme of today's post is going to be? No, it is not Isabel Marant, I'll tell you that up front, she just provides a good example of it here. Sorry for the ambiguity, if, ya know, you're not into that sort of thing...

Oh Bohemia

I think the title is pretty self-explanatory, that's just the overall vibe coming from these, in my opinion at least. These are of me by the way, in case you were wondering...

Now go enjoy the rest of your weekend, it's beautiful out!

This, I Can Get Behind

While perusing Hanneli's blog a while ago I came across this photo and was especially struck by it for some reason. It's the kind of look that I'm usually drawn to, put together in a way that makes it look like it wasn't, I guess normal people would call that effortless. Anyway, it is most certainly a look I can get behind. So, because I love you all, I scoured the interwebs for a way to recreate this stunner for yourself. Everyone wins, boomshakalaka.

Recreate: 
shirt- cut the sleeves off this zara number
skirt- this (it's similar kinda/sorta)
sunglasses- here
fancy-fanny pack- I recommend going to the drugstore and attaching some coin-pouches or mini-sized makeup bags to a thick belt...DIY, anyone?

Sooo did you miss me yesterday? I missed you. I also wanted to take this moment to let all of you know that I read every comment and that I really am more appreciative of your feedback and time than you could imagine. On that note, let's transition over to what I wish I was wearing right this second. Actually, that's a lie considering I'd really rather be naked right now because of this heat wave. It's the kind of heat that's really heavy and oppressive, that's the closest I can come to describing it at least! So my plan for today is to hide out in the air conditioning. Ah, summertime...

On Keeping My Word

Here's the rest of that outfit post I alluded to yesterday afternoon. I kept my word, hence the title of this post, and now because of it you get to enjoy some interpretive dance poses and faces that I didn't even know I could make. Any ways, here it is, I'm not sure why my right leg looks so distorted in the first one, but oh well. By the way, a little backstory on these, we (my friend and I) went on a mini road trip to the tiniest, sleepiest little town, that was right on the Hudson. It was hilarious because among all the antique stores and old tavern kind of places, there was an "artisan ice pop" and bubble tea shop, that was anything but old and dated. So thats where the bubble tea is from, that I'm holding, a piece of irrelevant information for you, courtesy of me. As usual. Okay, enjoy!

See what I mean about my right leg? Maybe it's just me, I don't know.

Pulling a Manrepeller pose to show off my armparties. That's the face I was talking about, in case that needed clarification...

Don't worry, thats just a mannequin. But when the woman first opened the trunk of that car, I thought the same as you. Creepiest crap ever. 

Thats just me separating the bubbles from my tea. It's summer vacation, don't judge.
