The end of days.

Welp, summer is over. Kind of, the Twilight Concert Summer Series is over, school is starting (for some, not this loser right here), and Memorial Day weekend is just some days away, there is nothing else left of the fun in the sun. Its been good, dont get me wrong, but it has all gone by way too fast. Always does.
At least I will be able to enjoy one little last morsel of all that is summer.
I can't wait for tomorrow...

Halloween is about 86 days away.

This may seem like a lot of time, but I can assure you right now it is not very much time at all when it comes to the kind of costume changes I like to make over the halloween weekend. I need to start planning asap!
Here are some ideas I have been scoping out... Maybe they will workout and maybe not, depending on what I can find.

1- Trashy, in a fun way.
Inspiration: Dolly Pardon, Amy Winehouse, Kat Von D, etc
The look: BIG hair, lots of makeup- red lips, blue eye shadow, fishnets for sure, some sort of shoulder pads/big jacket, short skirt, fringe?
Easy factor: Very easy

2- Lady Butcher
Inspiration: Mrs Lovett from Sweeney Todd
The look: Victorian, big dress but not fancy, "milk maid hair", knives &/or rolling pins, apron, homely makeup
Easy factor: Fairly easy

3- Queen of Hearts
Inspiration: Alice in Wonderland
The look: Big fancy dress, black crown, heart staff, pink flamingos, striped tights, fancy shoes, pretty makeup, curly (ringlet) hair
Easy factor: Depends on if I want to buy the costume or make it.

4-
Seven deadly sins (obviously a group effort)
Inspiration: Evilness
The look: depends on which sin. I had thought about Wrath before and I would want to wear tight pants, loose shirt, tons of jewelry (Mr T-ish) tough/punk look. Smokey eyes and pale makeup
Easy factor: Easy if everybody cooperated

5- Super hero
Inspiration: Comic books
The look: Tight outfit that shows off all curves. Bad ass weapon like a gun, knife, nunchucks, etc. boots of some sort, mask &/or cape. Black
Easy factor: Depending on if I want to be a specific hero and also if the costume is available to buy.

More inspiraton to come.

I've been slacking.

I dont really like the gym.
1- Lots of weirdos.
2- I dont understand the get ready to go to the gym style.
3- It smells bad
4- Yuppies
5- Other peoples sweat all over everything
6- Everyone trying to one-up everyone else
7- Id rather be outside

BUT these are all excuses. No matter who or what is at the gym I really dont have any excuse not to go work out.
I just need to play some good fast metal and start running. Yeah thats what I need to do. Starting today.

:)


I. need. this.

Im such a sucker for accessories... my favorites are all of them: jewelry, shoes, bags, hair stuff... this list can go on forever. Well since I am addicted and I have no desire to fix this addiction I am always on the look out for super cute stuff that I cant ever afford, because if I could afford it then that would take out all the fun of being a bargain shopper.
This is my recent discover. I am in love.
Juicy Couture Houndstooth!
