So, after my long-overdue post last week, a friend sat me down for a serious conversation about my lack of posts. In between her berating and me cowering, she made a diagnosis: that my laziness is due in part to, well, laziness, as well as a lack of topics to discuss. I obviously cannot argue [...]

It’s the End of the World As We Know It (& I Feel Fine)
July 24, 2009
Wow. I am horrible. I think instead of apologizing, I’m just going to go ahead and pretend that it hasn’t been more than two months since my last post. Lalalalala I can’t hear you!
Here are the promised pictures from my recent life;

Sorry I’m so behind and irregular with the postings; I’m actually leaving again tomorrow, so it’ll be at least another 10 days before a new post, so here I am with a farewell update.
Two nights ago I went to see Brett Dennen open up for John Mayer at the PNC Bank Arts Center, which is [...]
Guess Who’s Back, Back Again?
July 12, 2008
I can’t believe I just quoted Eminem. Wow.
Anyway, I’m home! Did you miss me? I had the greatest time these past few weeks; I have so many stories, it’s ridculous. But back to business. Last night, as a welcome home party sort of thing, my friend Nicole (who I have previously mentioned, have I not?) [...]

Inspiration
June 15, 2008
I was recently asked to describe my style without comparing myself to a particular brand or celebrity. This flummoxed my mind and still weighs heavily on me now (my answer at the time was ‘If Lucille Ball and Johnny Rotton/Ramone had a love child at Woodstock”) However, after much pondering, I think I’ve managed to [...]

Argyle (& Alter Egos)
May 9, 2008
I’ll admit it, I’ve always been a fan. Even before we saw Luella put the chic back into comic-book-freak during the Spring 2008 RTW shows, I’d been wearing the classic, yet slightly dorky, but unbelievably flattering print with thick framed glasses and neutral wool blazers (the perfect camoflauge to go hunting for cute academics hiding in the Harvard [...]
