down by the river





I was flipping through the Early Spring 2010 Urban Outfitters catalog and fell in love with the cover photo (top photo, duh). Hence, this is the horrible reenactment that followed.

In other news, I've been receiving a lot more attention to my hair lately (probably because I've recently acquired more time to actually care about it) and was wondering if you guys would be interested in a how-to post for my curly/wavy thing I have going on most days. Yes. I'll even entertain the thought of a (gasp!) video post!

Scary thought. I know.

But for you guys. Anything.

(No sarcasm in that last comment. Honestly, you guys brighten my day and I know I'm cynical most of the time, but I really mean it. So thanks. For that. Truly.)

Happy almost weekend!

Jacket: Fatigue jacket, Forever 21
Shirt: White button down blouse, Abercrombie & Fitch
Shorts: Jean cut-offs, random pair of Levi's
Tights: Black sheer tights, Target
Boots: Black motorcycle boots, Dirty Laundry

  19. A video post is a great idea. It gives a touch to the blog, and only the first three ones are scary, later are super easy to do. And fun!

    Happy 2010, btw!

  27. yes please on the hair tutorial!
    plus i know this is super pathetic
    but i've been trying to wear my hair in the type of bun pictured here,
    and i can't, like i said pathetic
    hah do you think it might just be because i don't have bangs?

  28. A post on how you tie your hair up like it is in these pictures would be brilliant too. Like saracaver, I can't seem to do it properly - either it's too tight or severe or it's too loose and just falls down. :( I think I'm going to get a fringe again, or 'bangs' as everyone outside Ireland seems to call them!
