white stripes







(vintage stripped....)

I am not exactly sure what I would call this article of clothing that I am wearing. I picked it up at a consignment shop (Elizabeth's). It's not a poncho, or a wrap. It's actually very interesting, it has no tag, I'm pretty sure it's handmade. It is the most conformable and versatile piece of clothing I own.

Today was yet again cold and rainy. Went to Northern Light Espresso Bar after a full day of school to get some work done. Currently reading The Crucible for American Literature, such a great play. I decided to broaden by horizons from the usually chai, so to my delight I ordered Cafe Au Lait (after endless times of failed pronunciation) which ended up being delicious: coffee and steamed milk. I usually drink my coffee black, but surprisingly steamed milk has a much better taste than regular milk. Eh?

p.s this is insanely ridiculous

I have finally hopped on the 'shoulder pad' bandwagon, as has everyone else since Balmain's debut. I found this blazer while thrifting, knowing that most people probably kept walking after realizing that the shoulder pads were underneath the lining and incapable of being easily ripped out. I usually find shoulder pads everywhere on the floor of the Salvation Army dressing rooms. It is still cold and rainy in Scranton, yes like The Office. It's making me want to finally bring out all of my sweaters. Maybe I should do a few posts of my favorite sweaters? Any thoughts?

I came across this beautiful sweater at the salvation army the other day, 
it is the most perfect thing to let engulf me on this cold. rainy. day.

Good morning. While sipping my coffee this morning I stumbled upon the London designer Mark Fast. This is his Spring/Summer 2010 collection. I think the texture is beautiful. You can find more of his designs here
