New Shoes


My mom and I have been searching through my Mema's old pictures as a young girl for a special project, and I have been falling in love with loafers and socks. I went consignment shopping today and found this Cole Hann loafers for $1o bucks! Lucid dream, eh? Tom Cruise, your imagination doesn't have anything on these shoes!

Florida




A brief interlude before my new job begins. It's been wonderful being home. Amanda came to visit which made this trip even more special. Gosh, Florida, you're pretty.

Never Let Me Go

Do yourself a favor and see this movie. This recommendation comes with a warning. It's incredible, but sad. It's Wonderful, but so damn sad.

Nico



Another incredible German female singer.

Track Number 6 of my Fall Mix



The incredible Sibylle Baier. "Forgett"

Forgett came in my house yesterday
  my house that's on decay where roof and tapestry is rotten
  where the fire place isn't getting hot and everything is forgotten
  
  Forgett came in my house yesterday
  don't know if he wanna stay
  he lays him down like a child
  in garden that's run pretty wild
  and we laugh at each other's smile
  
  I understood in my life
  that never anybody else could change one's drive
  but you have to prove by your own heart and hand
  and though I know that I'm not out of the woods yet
  I feel so good
  
  Forgett came in my house yesterday
  my house that's not for sale since we had that
  sweet tea together since he sits in that leather sofa
  since we're together
  
  Forgett came in my house yesterday
  my house that's on decay where roof and tapestry is rotten
  where the fire place is'nt getting hot and everything is forgotten
  
  Forgett came in my house
  Yesterday

Apartment Therepy




It's clementine season again! If gorging yourself on them is simply not enough, you can try my old college homesick-for-Florida trick. Boil the skins for ten minutes, add your favorite spices, then sit it by a window to waft and billow. Pretty soon your apartment will smell like a zesty clementine dream.

Goodbye Summer. La fin.

Kinda. The heat is relentless.

Oublié 002


Reunited and it feeeeeeels so good!! My heartbreak is over. Yesterday, as I was packing for the great move (which will take place in under 10 days) I thought I might try to turn on my broken laptop (which 304 days ago I spilt tea on and RUINED). VOILA! She lives. My old gal is back and my replacement Dell is brooding in the corner. My apple, my loverly apple is back!

Oublié 001




Okay, we're going to try something new! Oh, and in new I mean old, old, old. Every week I'll be bringing you something so deliciously old/forgotton, it's new, new, new. To start, "Aging Spinsters" by the 6ths. The 6ths was started by Stephin Merrit (aka Magnetic Fields) in the 90s. Enjoy!

but when the city's so hot
the windows burst into flames
when the jesus freaks
collapse with the weight of their claims

Housing Works Cafe Bookstore



I found my new favorite bookstore. I bought so many amazing vintage books for a dollar, it put my heart in a flutter. I also purchased an antique Mary Poppins book with gorgeous cover art. The best part about the store (besides the rocking aesthetic, and that they sell beer in their cafe) all proceeds go to housing programs and HIV prevention. Confusing, but oh so beautiful. A picture of our buys above.
