My cat is snoring. Loudly.






Eyelet Cropped Tank- Free People, Scarf- Free People, Swing Skirt- Aritzia, Solvang Clogs- Jeffrey Campbell, Long Spike Necklace- Urban Outfitters

After what felt like a pretty lengthy shopping drought, I did some major damage this afternoon at my local Free People. That was nice. But I feel pretty shallow talking about shopping, as today Illinois finally abolished the death penalty! How unbelievably beautiful is that? Fifteen states down, a shitload (including my own) to go. I am pretty consistently horrified by the crimes that Texas perpetrates against it's citizens (google Cameron Todd Willingham), and know that (barring some kind of federal moratorium) there really isn't any hope for us Texans to join the modern world anytime soon. But I am always excited when other states do the right thing. I don't know who this blog reaches, but I do know that not everyone agrees with me. Quite honestly, I don't care. If you believe in the death penalty then you are wrong. So don't try to change my mind in the comments- it will be a waste of time for both of us. If you need an outlet for your (misguided) anger, then just call me fat or something, ok?
Strangely enough, now that the lavender in my hair has faded to the exact shade I was going for, it doesn't seem to show up in photos. Conundrum. Ok, that's pretty much it, but I did want to show you a small feature I have in this month's NYLON Korea. I get way too excited about these things, then I feel guilty for being excited. Oh well, goodnight!

    Beautiful! I was just eBay searching for a bustier-style top today.

    And you know, I used to try to be PC, but then I finally decided that certain issues have very clear cut lines of morality, and there is no point in "tolerating" opinions that fall on the obviously amoral end of that spectrum.

    Also, I am very pleased that all of my favorite ladies were in Nylon Korea. I need to pick copies up for y'all from LA Koreatown!

    Bahahaha I hate "tolerance" for stupid opinions. I got in a fight with someone about gay marriage and finally I was just like, "NO YOU'RE WRONG." And they got mad and called me ignorant- HAHAHAHA.

    I love that scarf. I wish I knew how to work a scarf, but I'm too damn awkward. And I can sort of see the purple, I think it looks really good.

    Haha sorry I should probably clarify that I got in a fight with someone who was against gay marriage and they called me ignorant.
