WE THE PEOPLE BLOG

Hello lovelies, I was going through my archives and your comments, whilst coming across this ah-mazzz-ing blog. I prefer to call it the precocious Jak&Jil, which I believe is quite the compliment. Jessie, the blogger of WE THE PEOPLE STYLE, has a great eye for street styles and bloggers. I recommend this blog for any avid lovers for fashion blogs. Brava..XX

P.S.: IT HELPS TO LIVE IN AN AWESOME CONTINENT ;) 

i'm an UNDERFED BITCH.

 

The city is receiving such sticky beautiful weather, it's kinda pathetic. An excuse to wear a fishtail flower dress from UO paired with Jeffrey Campbell Groovie's. All I needed was a fruit basket or fruit necklaces..or fruit? I felt like a fruit flower queen for no reason (teehee!) 

Updates: A few of you have e-mailed me asking if I've been accepted to FIT yet, and in response, I do not know :'(. I know a friend has been accepted for FMM, so if you have any other questions I'd be happy to answer them via twitter or email. 

Topics/Controversies: WTFFF!! Lady GaGa's album is really sick. Yes, in terms of achieving 700 no.1 singles in a row, Born This Way may not be this album, but it has such great depth and vocals. She is killin it, and I love how she commercializes all types of genres. A few potentials would definitely be Marry the Night, Hair, and Edge of Glory. My faveee would have to be Americano, because of it's latina/italiano flaveee, but all her pop ballads are soo orgasmic. Yummsies!!  

Senior Year: I will be graduating in a few weeks, and I've been soo antsy in terms of graduation/prom. A friend makes really gorgeous dresses, just for the experience and to explore in the construction of dresses, and is creating a dress to add to that collection. Hopefully, I'm able to wear it, but if it doesn't fit...(don't want a nip slip), do you guys think a nice poofy vintage dress from the 50s would suffice? I would so go for a nice chiffon from BCBG or something, but I'd prefer something...timeless? Leave your comments or responses to that idea.

VOGUE UK MAY 2011 COVER

Freja Beha Erichson in Oscar de la Renta.
 Quite frankly, she doesn't capture the "bridely" esscence I thought Freja should go for. But,  it's Freja, hello!! She gives brides a whole new spectrum; sexy and edgy, as opposed to pure and perfect. 

Lara Stone in Bruce Oldfield.
So awkward, so angelic, so magical. Yup...magical. 

Natalia Vodianova Vivienne Westwood. For some reason, I see raw and delicate. hm..

So...whose your fave? I instantly fell in love with Lara's cover, but each one of them contribute something different, so it's hard to choose.

SUN+WARM WEATHER=HOTTIES.

 

 

I love vintage or thrifted shoes. Especially the gold ones on the far right. If only the platforms were thicker, and it was a women's size 7, then I can pass them off for a swaggin version of Prada's platform woven oxfords. 

You better hide yo kids, hide yo wife, and hide yo husband.

Also, I freaking hate it when I write a long paragraph about my new celebrity crush from Ireland,  add some hot photos, and then, accidentally delete it. Plus, blogger thinks its helpful to save as you keep typing and deleting things on your blog post. Now, you all must wait for me to reveal him, because I can't think of the nice quirky things I said before...

EMMA WATSON

“I find the whole concept of being ‘sexy’ embarrassing and confusing. If I do an interview with photographs people desperately want to change me - dye my hair blonder, pluck my eyebrows, give me a fringe. Then there’s the choice of clothes. I know everyone wants a picture of me in a mini-skirt. But that’s not me. I feel uncomfortable. I’d never go out in a mini-skirt. It’s nothing to do with protecting the Hermione image. I wouldn’t do that. Personally, I don’t actually think it’s even that sexy. What’s sexy about saying, ‘I’m here with my boobs out and a short skirt, have a look at everything I’ve got?’ My idea of sexy is that less is more. The less you reveal the more people can wonder.” -EMMA WATSON

CHANGES.

 

 

 I'm wearing a Chloe vintage blouse over an H&M maxi dress, with Jeffrey Campbell boots, Calvin Klein pleather newsboy cap, and borrowed sunglasses. Wow that sounds like a mouthful, WOO. 

The past 24 hours has been one of the craziest days I've ever had. Seriously, it was a crazy bomb waiting to explode (me being the bomb of course). Yesterday, I received an e-mail from Fashion Institute of Technology, informing me that I was put on the wait list for Fall 2011. I was completely shocked. After all, I felt I had a large chance of getting accepted immediately. My grades were average: I couldn't complain, because I tried to the full extent of my ability to get As and Bs during my last two years of high school . I definitely wasn't lacking experience in fashion: I interned as a production assistant for a show during NYFW, plus I worked backstage in a few runway shows, AND I attended shows to blog about. So, I pondered last night. I pondered. I slept. Pondered some more. Slept some more. I repeated this cycle a couple of times last night.  Plus, I added some crying to that pathetic cycle. 

 I knew that I couldn't cry to solve the problem. So after a load of advice coming from different sources, I decided to fight for something I felt like I deserved. Normally, I would throw in the towel, and say, "C'est La Vie," but this time I didn't want to. I wanted to try to improve the situation and make sure my voice was heard by the admission office. I walked in, asked why I didn't get in, and bam! I felt so much better. I felt a huge load of rocks have been lifted off my back. I can finally breath.  

Ok, I wrote a whole Dr. Phil synopsis of my current life story. Normally, I wouldn't write these long personal journal entries, but I wanted to reflect on one of the biggest life lessons I've learned; never give up and always fight for what you believe in. Never take no or maybe for an answer, because you're worth a whole load of yes's. And even if you try hard and still get a no, move on to the next project or opportunity.  

Like my friend, Jose said to me last night, "keep your head up high," so that is what I'm going to do.
