Fall tree in fog

It turns out that I cant put pictures from my camera into this computer I'm lending at the moment. This means I can't show all the great stuff I've been meaning to show because they're stuck in my camera. So until December, I will only show inspirational pictures from other people. It sucks in a way, but what can you do? Here are two pictures by Eva Watson Schutze that reminds me of my view from here (trees and fog)

The Stendhal's Syndrome

I didn't exactly celebrate Halloween this year but we saw the Stendhal's syndrome a few days ago. It inspired me enough to at least put up some screen shots as a sort of Halloween tribute. My old and very good friend Robin visited me this weekend and we had a lovely time (I might put up some pictures)

Turning back to elegance

A trend which I'm terribly sick of is the borrow clothes from your boyfriend look. My boyfriend has terrific taste but I wouldn't want to look like his little brother, wearing his clothes. I love androgyny fashion, but wearing oversized sweatshirts is getting old now, isn't it? I'm looking forward to tight blouses and long floating skirts. Boys should borrow their girlfriend's clothes and not the other way around. The grunge trend is cute for a while, but I miss the sophisticated sexy look where showing skin was a turn off compared to an elegant suit. Am I the only one who's fed up with all the breasts in American apparel ads and Urban Outfitters skirts that barely cover your butt? (I realize that I probably am, but I will still express my own point of view!). It's time we get covered up and be sensual, not tacky (men and women!)

*I wrote that this was Ringo Starr first, but the person who commented is absolutely right! Things get messed up when you do things in a rush

Red lights

I was suppose to make a really great blog post this week, but my computer DIED! My parents will lend me their small laptop so that I can use the internet, but that's about all I will be able to do with that computer. I'm using my sister's computer right now, and it's pretty sweet! My sister styled and shot some very classy pictures of me last night, so I edited them for this post. I will post something funnier than my different hair styles soon!

Hair

I cut my bangs the other day. Not very dramatic or interesting what so ever, just slightly different. Carl said that I looked like a little boy from the 1940s' this morning... I like it shorter though, I can't stand the long ones that are so popular these days. After my exam this weekend, I'll post something funnier than my personal pictures.
