contrastic fantastic

(Yeah, I made up the word "contrastic." I'm pretty linguistic... )

Is it just me, or does it feel like forever since my last post?! Although it's only been a few days, it feels like it's been forever. Forever since I last wore normal clothes, forever since school even began... I always think it's funny how, at the beginning of the school year, it feels like time goes by so slowly. Then, all of a sudden, it's Christmas... March Break... Summer again! I'm always afraid that that's how my life is going to feel - like a continuous cycle.

Speaking of cycles (kind of. Not a really) - fall is coming around! Well, actually, there is no visual proof of this, as the leaves have yet to change and the weather has yet to cool. But (I just realized) my blouse is in fall colours. At last, a sign of the season to come! Hurrah! Hurrah! (I'm obsessed with fall. And signs. Refer to the last post. I think that's pretty much all I talked about.)

Oh snap. Fall colours and a bow-tie? This is everything my blog stands for. (You know. Except, not.) NOTE: I don't even know why I'm referring to this outfit as "fall colours" when it's really not. Fluorescent fall leaves? Come on! But here's a wild thought: What if the world was made out of neon colours? Like in a Dr. Seuss book? I imagine it would be quite fun.


And, is it just me? Or, when you buy things second-hand/ thrifted/ vintage, you kind of expect that no one else will have it? Well, you can imagine my surprise (a few months back) when I was browsing fashion toast's shop and found the EXACT same bracelet that I have! Needless to say, my mouth literally dropped (which, really, isn't that unusual as I am a pretty expressive person...)

This is Daisy. Daisy is a dog. She likes to watch other dogs, eat cheese, and and squirm away when I approach her with open arms and a camera.
Daisy, this is reader. Reader is a seriously awesome human being. Enough said.


I hope you guys have had a good week! I'm really sorry I haven't been able to post. This is on the account of, well, my uniform (which, by the way, I always get in trouble for it. Dear teachers, get a grip. A necklace does not distract from my appearance. Nor does an unbuttoned top-button.) Thanks so much for the comments. Honestly. After a long day, it's so awesome to come home to your nice words! :) I promise I get back to all of you!

Have a good week! Um, also, speaking of weeks.. Hellooooo, New York Fashion Week! Any favourites thus far?! I'm in love with Preen's Spring 2010. I don't know why it's getting hatin'... I want it all! What are you currently lusting over? Do spill!
