Let the learning commence!


You know that time in August, when you can't watch a single show on t.v. without seeing at least one back - to - school commercial? Well that time is now. Fall 2010 is upon us.
I just moved into my new apartment off campus; much better than where I lived last semester, my closet last semester can be best compared to a can of sardines... it wasn't pretty.
For me summer ends on the first day of the fall semester, regardless of the weather (still hot!)

For everyone doing some back to school shopping; here are a few things on my list:
1)


Urban Outfitters Slash back dress. Forever21 Straw hat. Aldo steel toe oxfords.

2)








Graphic tee: Nasty gal. Phillip Lim suspender skirt. I would love to combine the skirt, tee, and hat..too cute.
Or..with a cropped leather jacket from topshop and boat shoes.
















3)













J brand Cargo Pants. See through shirt by Nastygal. Messenger bag from Queen's Wardrobe. I have always detested backpacks, this messenger bag is a nice alternative.


















4)


Nasty girl Britain tee. Erin Wasson for RVCA star shorts. Nasty girl thigh highs and combat boots.

Topshop Sparrow Jacket. Forever21 ring.

When school begins, I usually don't have a lot of time to spend on my appearance so I keep my clothes simple and accessorize! Hats, shoes, jewelry, bags, thigh highs,  e.t.c.
That's my list.
What's yours?

it's burning hot



So it has been ridiculously hot the past couple of days, I have completely given up on dressing up. All I have worn the past few days are shorts, shirts, rompers and beachy ankle bracelets. This outfit is from a few days ago, my friend and I were doing "the usual"-bumming in her backyard, eating, prepping to go to the beach, and complaining about the weather. Living about 5 minutes from the beach has given me the excuse to dress like I am on the beach and in this hot weather, that's an excuse I am willing to exhaust.
My friend's backyard is so pretty..I hang out there all the time,  I took some pictures of her backyard.

Romper: Forever21
Ring: Um vintage (can't remember where I got it, it's been so long)
My favorite oxfords: Steve Madden
Earrings: craft shop downtown st pete
bag: vintage

that's all for now,
bye darlings,

THE ZOEINATOR (Rachel's back!)



So if you are like me, you have been patiently waiting by your t.v. for months to discover the answers to some of our generation's most befuddling questions:

Did Rachel really fire Taylor ?
How many bow ties does Brad own?
How many Chanel pieces does Rachel own?
How many times will Rachel use the word "bananas" this season?
Will Rachel's definitions of the words "bananas and die" be included in the dictionary?
Will team Zoe keep it together during award season?
Can we see Rachel's full closet?

OK..fine. Maybe not our generations most important questions but equally important. All of these mind boggling questions will be answered in the season of "the Rachel Zoe project"..answers so surprising, you might just- die.
I saw the first episode yesterday, she never disappoints. Love her!

I also found this video on her website, too funny. I die!

I love this show (I admit that proudly), my tuesday nights from now till the end of the season are occupied. So if you need me, it's unfortunate. Reschedule.

enjoy!
bye darlings,
Sam,
