Cutest little snow angel EVAH.

Strangely haunting, isn't it?

I wish this photo were better; she's got the layering so down.

Which, in Berlin, is so necessary.

She's beach ready, too. That ink, though, is so sick.

From Vogue Nippon 2003.. I think. Shot by Tom Munroe, I'm fairly certain.

no i don't... feel no pain..

Last night at George McConnell & the Nonchalants in Memphis.. Rodarte for Target navy lace tee: I may never take it off. It was on the clearance rack at size XL, as was this double zippered wristlet from Jaye Hersh's Hollywood Intuition line, also at Target for a whopping $4.98!

Sunglasses at night, at a show. YES. Please, don't ask me to take them off, don't tell me I'm hiding my pretty face, don't you dare take them off my face yourself. Shades indoors for me mean that I don't want to be seen. By you, or anyone. In clubs, this most often is regarded as me being the most f*cked up one there, when ironically, it's usually the opposite. As it was last night; not even a drink, yet the entire dance floor was making sure I was okay via my dance partner. Why not ask me, btw? 

strangers are so annoying when drunken and trying to help meddling.

on a sunday.. but it was really saturday.

Shooting this outfit was fun today.. Normally it's kind of work, but today it was like playing a video game. Which is wierd I know, but in the breakroom I had to dodge villians, outside I had weather obstacles and in the hallways the lighting was bad. Which isn't a video game type debacle, but you get the picture.

Get it?

valentine's day? pssh...

This lovely's prints are absolutely my top purchase priority right now.

Visit her site, here, that links to her etsy shop.

it's the little things, really... that make life, well, life.

Ah, my lovelies, I've been expecting you...

and to my delightful surprise, you're even taller than I'd imagined.

Thank you, shoes, for making my Wednesday so much better.

Now, if only the snow would melt away...

i HATE old media.

OH NO!

The tabloid world in a frenzy over Lindsay Lohan's handbag contents!

Here's the photo in question, Yes, there is a prescription bottle in it.

Get the F*CK over it, media. Reallly.

Lindsay Lohan is a talented actress.

I understand she perhaps is bringing this media frenzy on herself (and she did make Labor Pains), but it's been going on for years now that Americans (I can't speak for the rest of the world) eat this tabloid shit up. Which sells them. Which pays their salaries. Which makes the process start all over. Week after week. Mischa Barton fell to it, Lindsay Lohan's fallen obviously to it, countless other starlets have really had to fight, and still do, to get through their constant documentation, even Princess Diana (they say) ultimately fell to the paparazzi.

Imagine being an Olsen.. Sheesh. Total bummer.

In this particular case, I think she's looking pretty good, something she wouldn't if she had a nasty 'script problem, as her own father would have you believe. Maybe, just maybe, if they'd all leave everyone well enough alone people could live their lives and make a living doing what they love and have been given the glorious opportunity to do.

Maybe she's just fighting a cold or has a heart condition, but we wouldn't care about her actual well-being, would we, TMZ? Though, I will say that blonde long haired surfer man is hott. With two t's, even (and to be fair, TMZ didn't report this, they're just the easiest acronym to type).

If only the paparazzi read Alice D.
