Savage Beauty

Went to Alexander McQueen's exhibit, "Savage Beauty," at the MET last month. Can we say holy sensory orgasm?!?!? Upon entering the exhibit, my friend and I immediately had goosebumps and chills. It was incredible to read about the late designer's influences, as well as see these AMAZING, unimaginable pieces/works of ART up close and personal. I plan to see the exhibit again before it's run at the MET ends - it was THAT amazing! You have until July 31st to see the exhibit... Get yo' ass over there and GET INSPIRED!!!


You can see this SICK dress created by robots (?!?!?) during his 1999 show in the exhibit (do yourself a solid and watch this video!! It is what EVERY fashion show should be - a SHOW):





I wasn't allowed to take any pictures inside the exhibit, but here's some pictures of me acting like an immature idiot in the prestigious museum. As you will soon learn in these few photographs, I love men in uniform, phallic photo ops, guacamole and Vespas.

I'm rocking Valentino sunglasses (sale $120 from $300, Nordstrom), an H&M blazer (sale, $20), an Urban Outfitters skirt (sale, $10), a bought the wrong size cropped Hanes tank, Joyce Leslie necklace ($8), Free People anklets (sale, $10 each), M. London leather bag (graduation gift from Mama Turka), and never worn men's brogues $3.99 at Goodwill. 

Rock & Roll Queen

 Here's a short outfit post showcasing how I tend to dress in my daily life. Today, I was running errands like crazy! Though daily activities may seem daunting and mundane, just by adding a little animal print, you're ready to take on the day. This song is on one of my driving playlists, which also gets me going ;).

"You are the sun,
You are the only one,
My heart is blue,
My heart is blue for you"

(I'm rocking a mens Hanes tank, Forever 21 pencil skirt, Express studded belt, mens H&M leather cuff, and Minnetonka moccasin booties)

Be myyyyy,

be myyyyy,

BE MY LITTLE ROCK & ROLL QUEEN

(Love this song by The Subways...SO fun! I especially heart it when he lets out that rock and roll screammmmmm)

“We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams”

 Sometimes a piece you buy can serve other purposes than originally intended. For example, this blue one piece jumper I bought last year in Soho is awesome for its royal blue color and ease. However, sometimes I feel like Violet Beauregarde from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory in it. So, I've decided to lower the strapless top to my waistline, hence creating a perfectly baggy harem pant. Though it works either way, I love this inexpensive item even more now that it's more versatile!

 (I'm rocking Dior sunglasses, Banana Republic necklace, mens Hanes tank, blue one-piece jumper purchased in Soho last year for about $25, Zara shoes)
