Sunday Night Confessional

i'm totally bummed that i missed smu homecoming this weekend.

i'm pretty sure it was the smartest thing to do though, considering that none of my out-of-towner besties were going to be around for it either.

this is the kind of thing i see in my dreams.

i've been having some serious rollercoaster weekends lately.

last night started out so fun. jon & jt picked me up & we went downtown to alan's trump tower apartment for a beer tasting party - everyone brought something different, alan & his gf made a ton of food for the "beer pairing," i saw childhood friends i haven't hung out with in years, everyone was having a blast.

then we left & went to kingston mines. despite the fact that we had to pay a $15 cover - shit's weak! - it was pretty fun. but it started getting a little awk when a bunch of other peeps showed up (friends of friends & what not). so we left & took a 3295728075 minute cab ride to a korean karaoke place in lincoln park where, after a hilarious start, things got even weirder, people started dropping like flies & peacing out without saying anything, people were getting it on in the bathroom? ...let's just leave it at that. anyway, i got all of like 3 hours of sleep last night so i've been feeling prettyyyy miz today. & i'm sure next weekend will be just as wild.

speaking of next weekend, i'm psyched for james to visit!

holler baller.

i forced myself to do a mini bootcamp style workout the other day. & i took this totally sweet photo.

i went on a major music downloading binge yesterday.

looooooooves it.

i really need to figure out my life.

namely, my career path, my boy sitch (or lack there of. tears.), and my financial everything.

You had me at Chanel

the most perfect coat in the world.

BANANAS Amazing

looking oh so rachel zoe for alyssa's week before halloween party tonight!! this pic is pre sequined beanie & pre fur, but i think you get the idea. :)

i'm extremely proud of the fact that i already owned everything i'm wearing except for the sun-g's ($7.50 at party city). woop woop!

Just dreaming my money away...

i don't know what my deal is, but i've had shopping on my mind non. stop. lately. since i'm tryingggg to save up some money to get an apt, i obviously can't spend a fortune. but as luck would have it, there are some major sales going on right now. and some majorly cute stuff available on the cheaps! check it.

{all from forever 21, bakers, & dsw. except for the nasty gal blazer}

i actually bought that "young rich sexy & free" tee & a cute little black skirt with tulle sticking out from underneath yesterday - both from forevs. & the most adorable ruched sleeve top from h&m.

next up, those platform heels. looooooove. :)

happy friday!

When The Leaves Come Falling Down

i so love fall in chicago on days as pretty as today!

p.s.

check out maxikins watching finding nemo with me last night.

wittle angel. :)

also notice my new, much larger (borrowed from margaux but mine for now) tv. hollerssss.

I die.

i would give anything for these tights.

{studded hearts}

maybe i could wear them with these boots?

which i very well may be purchasing, by the way, unless i can find a pair more similar to the balmain buckle boots that i am still oh-so-in love with.

speaking of boots, did you get the fall nordstrom catalogue?

i'm obsessed with half the outfits in there! it was so much cuter than the stuff in the neiman's catalogue. i'm especially loving these & these.
