Marc Jacobs t-shirts!

All these shirts are available at Marc by Marc Jacobs stores for $28! 100% of the proceeds go to the Provincetown Community Center. Aren't they just the most darling t-shirts you've ever seen? Well, maybe, but they're still pretty darling! I especially love the blue fish t-shirt, red heart t-shirt, and the mermaid t-shirt! Hopefully, I'll pick up one the next time I visit San Fransisco.

Target x John Derian

As you guys may or may not know, I am a huge sucker for home decor, interior design, whatever you want to call it! I am really obsessed with Sherry and John's Young House Love, and since I was a kid my favorite part about The Sims games series (I know, kids shouldn't play The Sims, but hey, I'm older now) was building and designing the house! I got so into it once, I spent hours searching up on ways to have a split-level house, blueprints, and other things... But anyways, I saw Target's latest collaboration with John Derian and AH! I was floored.

The collection itself is really nice, but I don't feel a need to buy ALL of the pieces. Just these that I've posted up here! I love the prints that look like they come from an outdated 1970s science textbook. There's something I feel that is so... golden about them? I don't know the word I'm looking for!

Tight Obsession

[1, 2, 3 - all from ASOS.com]

Ooh! I am so glad fall is coming along nicely. The weather becomes increasingly colder each day (not that we had a hot summer this year anyways...), which allows for thicker clothes, layering, and other cold weather styles! I love cold weather clothes. Especially tights! And this time around, I'm fancying tights more than I ever have. I'm even willing to spend $30 on a pair (not that I have)! Honestly, I've been going through so many stores, online or in person, looking for lots of colors and patterns that interest me. So far, I've purchased none, but I plan on purchasing a haul from ASOS. Good bye, summer money. Sob!

My dear friend Frances, from Hansel&Petal, even wrote a nifty post on tights as well! We're on the same... adoration wagon? I don't know, haha. Her post made my hosiery-lust even worse! Ah! I need to go shopping.

Backpacks

[Urban Outfitters - Ecote Classic Canvas Backpack]

For a while now, my interest in backpacks have been increasing! I do like purses and bags, but sometimes backpacks seems more convenient. For example, when I have to bike miles to my friends' houses and deliver a few things to them, it's always inconvenient when all I have is a bag! The weight on one shoulder (while on a bike) really bothers me; or if I have a messenger bag, it always gets caught under my seat or beats against my bike.

[Alexander Wang Sydney Backpack]

But when I say I want a backpack, I don't mean the typical Jansport school backpack! Those actually bore me. I'd say most of my schoolmates sport those, and if not - these. I do prefer Northface over Jansport, though. I think it looks more "urban". But anyways, when I say I want a backpack, I don't mean those. I mean the backpacks as featured in this post! I like the foldover look, and I like how it's more buckles and buttons.

See by Chloe Winter 2010/2011

Can I just say that I really do enjoy the See by Chloe Winter 2010/2011 collection? There's something about it that I really like. I have to say, it makes me think of the new millennium. I don't know exactly what makes me think of the new millennium. Is it the colors that look like it comes out of the "bold" pack of Crayola markers (did anyone else have those aside from me?)? Is it the turtle necks? The chunky socks? I reminds me of old Teen Vogue magazines I used to take from my sister when she was still in college (she went to college the first few years of 2000, I can't remember which. I'm pretty sure it's from 2000-2004).

One of my favorite elements of this collection are the mustardy army green chunky socks. Worn with the heathery grey... I think it looks really nice. I also really like the turtle necks! Generally, I'm not a huge fan of turtle necks, but I really like (wow, I keep saying that) the second photo I posted up there. The pink looks great as well... and I usually think pinks like that are too tacky or scene queen 2005 (a la Audrey Kitching). All the coats in this collection are absolutely fab. Yeah, I said "fab."

Erin Featherson Resort 2011

[Photos off Here Comes the Sun]

I saw this collection off of Here Comes the Sun and my friend Frances' Hansel&Petal! I can't say that I'm in love with the collection, but I do like it. I particularly like the color scheme. In all honestly, it makes me think of The White Stripes. It also makes me think back to 2006, when I was walking through a mall with my sister and Forever21 had all their mannequins dressed in black, white, and red. Random, but it's true. I think my favorite outfit would have to be the one with the nude satin blouse with the Peter Pan collar and ruffled skirt... Or the patterned dress. I do like the off-white blouse with the large bow, however.

Another thing to note that I do like is the make-up! I really like the natural face and orangey red lipstick! Personally, I would have made the eyebrows darker and thicker, like Ali Michael's. But I guess that's just me. I love the dark and full eyebrow look... just not on myself!

Summer

Summer is finally here! To be honest, I haven't really been inspired in the "fashion" category, thus my lack of posts! I haven't been looking at any designers since... Oh gosh, February? I also haven't been shopping much at all. All I do is go onto Forever21's website and look at their new arrivals. No, I'm not lying! It's actually sad how my "fashion depression" is so deep. My school outfits were terrible (while school lasted).

Is it bad that I really want those socks?

I think a huge reason why this blog has been lacking posts is my new interest in beauty.

I've stopped reading a lot of fashion blogs and have been reading a lot more beauty blogs! Also, I think the negligence of this blog is due to my laziness. I've been too lazy to get my camera, take pictures, upload them onto my computer, edit/resize/etc. photos, and then host them on a website! I'm sorry, my few remaining followers, and I'll try to be more active!

... Here's a polyvore set. YES, I know this won't make up for I've abandoned this blog!
