elvis ain't the rage and polyester ain't the look.

vintage Levis jean jacket - etsy.com, checkered blouse - Uniqlo, various printed T-s (fleetwood mac, stevie nicks, elvis costello, kut vonnegut) - etsy.com, sunglasses 1 - Karen Walker, sunglasses 2 - ebay.com, straw hat - Uniqlo, faux leather moto vests - Uniqlo, cuffed chinos - Urban Outfitters, striped pants - Wood Wood @ Opening Ceremony, cuffed shorts - Wood Wood @ Opening Ceremony, cropped sweater - Top Shop, spoon bracelet - labyrinthvintage at etsy.com, safety pin nose rings - hotwired on etsy.com, long-strap suede bag - Master-Piece for Opening Ceremony, tree stump ring - Digby & Iona, creepers - T.U.K. apologies for the extreme random order i went about doing that.

this is what i would like to be wearing in the next few months as it starts to get warmer (and that darned snow finally starts to disappear for good!). somewhat inspired by early 90s punk rock, MxPx circa Teenage Politics, Green Day circa Dookie, Rancid circa ...And Out Come the Wolves. but clearly super girlie and fairly 2010... not-to-mention... not so sure if Tim Armstrong or Mike Herrera would sport a Stevie Nicks shirt. i am serrrriously considering buying a new creeper-type shoe though. the selection they have at Trash and Vaudeville is insannne!! a millions styles and colours!

a little less conversation, a little more action.

(Kogepanic flickr - something tells me this is not actually human-sized, however).

my roomies and i have been discussing our big move out of our apartment come June/July, and we have decided that this time we need to set our priorities straight as to what we truly need out of an apartment. we want to pay less rent, live in the same area, have sufficient storage, good natural lighting, decent sized rooms (including the kitchen, bathroom and living spaces), etc. we've all agreed on those. now i just have to work on getting the two of them to agree that it is essential... nay, VITAL, that our new place comes equip with a built-in conversation pit.

conversation pit def'n

–noun

a usually sunken portion of a room or living area with chairs, sofas, etc., often grouped around a fireplace, where people can gather to talk.
