My Big Bang Theory
I've recently come to the conclusion that I need to spice up my hair for fall! For the past year I've actually been very satisfied with my low-maintenance, naturally-textured hair and I really love it the way it is. However, I'm beginning to think it needs a little revamping, especially for back-to-school season. Plus, I am in desperate need of a trim for my split-ends! Although I have thought of going with a drastic change like cutting off several inches, I don't think I can part with my length just yet! I like being able to let my hair air-dry into my natural curls/waves, so I don't want anything I'd have to blow-dry or straighten everyday. I've decided that getting bangs would be a great route! It's something a little less extreme than getting a new style all together and they wouldn't be as hard to maintain either. For hair-spiration I seem to look to Emma Stone quite often. One reason is probably because her facial features are similar to mine (round nose, freckles, squinty eyes) so I figure that if a hairstyle looks good on her it'll do the same for me! I really love the side-swept bangs that she's sported most often and I think they would be a good basis for my new 'do. I'll post pics as soon as I hit the salon!

A Midsummer Night's Dream
Summer is halfway through! Every other year of my life I wouldn't be saying this with such an upbeat fervor, however this is the first summer I've wanted to be over! Don't get me wrong...I love swimming, the hot weather, week-long trips, and sleeping in...but there's nothing more I'm looking forward to than starting a new phase of my life at college! I've been doing everything I can to prepare for move-in day, including going through my whole wardrobe to figure out what I'm bringing with me (the hardest part being my shoe collection). I've done most of my shopping but I'm still looking around for a laptop. I'm so excited that it seems college is all I can think of! However, sometimes I realize that I should just step back and enjoy the relaxing summer I have because it won't be around forever. Here are some summery things I'll be dreaming of tonight...
Sweet dreams!
Elie Saab's visionary Fall 2011 Couture collection.
Chanel's latest and greatest nail hue.
A breathtaking ocean view from a white-washed beach house.
A design for the engagement ring I'll have someday.
A bookcase full of fashion history and designer biographies.
Kissing a frog so I can turn him into a pair of these Lanvin wedges.
Minimalistic necklaces with a touch of dazzling stones.
Eating tiramisu in Rome.
New ways to style my hair for the summer heat.
My plans for the future.
Sweet dreams!

TightsPlease
[Promotional Blog Post]
I received these funky tights in the mail a little while ago and have been meaning to post about them sooner, however it's been a fairly busy summer for me so far. But anyway, tightsplease.com is a really cool online store where you can find any style of hosiery you fancy! This pair of Pamela Mann Freesia tights struck me because of its unique floral print and vibrant colors. Putting them on, they are so comfortable that they felt like a second skin on my legs! The only thing was that they didn't fit quite right in the feet so I cut those parts off, turning them into footless tights...which works out perfectly so I can show off my summer pedicure!
