MSTRKRFT

Thursday night I joined some friends for the MSTRKRFT concert at Dante's downtown.

It was a late night considering the group didn't come on until midnight!

Work on Friday was a little rough...

Billie Jean meets Judy Garland

Can you imagine wearing these??!
Christian Louboutin lace-ups.
Channeling both Michael Jackson and Judy Garland.
I already have an outfit in my head :)

Daydreaming about holiday parties...

I wouldn't quite consider it the holidays yet, but it's close enough that I keep catching myself daydreaming about various holiday activities...pumpkin pie, presents, Christmas ornaments, but most of all...PARTIES.
Holiday parties are my absolute favorite to dress up for. Red lipstick, sparkly jewelry and party dresses make any girl giddy.
These lovely dresses caught my eye on ModCloth.

Movie Monday

It's very rare that I see a modern movie that I really adore. Most of my favorite movies were made before 1985, but last night we went to see 'An Education' starting Carrey Mulligan and Peter Sarsgaard and it was amazing. It had all the subject matter a movie needs to pull me in...love, Paris, fashion, heartbreak and strong intelligent women -hooray! Carrey is particularly believable in her role as Jenny, and I must say that I fell in love with her entire wardrobe.

Miss Natasha Kahn

This chick is just about the coolest kid on the block.
She never fails to impress me with her style and music. I've even heard her referred to as 'The New Stevie Nicks'!
If you haven't already checked out Bat for Lashes, you should do so right now - you will not regret it. Her music is the kind of melodic, folksy tunes that I can listen to over and over again.
Oh yes, she may or may not be the reason I decided to get bangs...

It's Official

Daylight savings is here...the light is leaving me. Soon the only daylight I will see will be on my lunch breaks and on the weekends.
Sigh.

Halloween

This Halloween was spent in Eugene (my home of oh-so-many years ago) and was the second year Scott and I have done a couples theme. My original idea (which I still want to do at some point) was to be Brett and Jermaine from 'Flight of the Concords', but when I went to the Red Light to help my roommate pick out her costume, I was completely swept up the the flurry of Halloween-mania. I found an incredible baby blue prom dress from the 70s. It has tons of tulle and is just about as princess-y as it gets. After trying it on, I really didn't have a choice, I had to buy it. A few days later I went back with my brother to get his Borat costume (which was awesome!) and I picked out the rest of Scott's outfit. I think we make a pretty cute 70s prom couple (the only problem being that he is sans crown.)
