who knew this song was so creepy

FRIENDLY PSA:
if you were planning on consuming acid/mushrooms/magik brownies today, i would hold off until after you've watched the video posted below.


at first it's a little slow and "ooooookayyyy"-ish..and i thought, do i only like this because wayne coyne is so foxy?

then it goes kinda craycray (around 2:30), and i got serrrrriously into it.

dig it!

get out of my dreams

pretty sure this is the first time anyone great has ever been featured on racked's streetstyle thing. (except for chuck!).
of course 85% of the readers gave him a "who did this to you"..LET'S HAVE SOME VISION, PEOPLE!

i mean...dying. kinda want my bangs like this? (jk..not jk...jk-ish?)



ps, his name is PAISLEY.
of course it is, what else would it be.

thx, stevie

broken heartbeats sound like breakbeats (or so i have heard)

sigh.



issue #2 of M/M era interview..still a bust. (design-wise)
the cover is, again, the best part...comme kisses.

tiny heartbreaks.
i miss you, fabien !

yo, i said i'm callin you baby



i posted this on my tumblr yesterday to commemorate the thriftacular but it still makes me laugh and so...HERE YOU GO. retro mondaze, fer sure.

ps, my 16th birthday cake was a cookie puss.

sequinsanity

as i am not really looking to spend so much cash these days, i tried to be tough on myself yesterday whilst among all the second hand treasures that long island had to offer.

apparently, being tough yields neil diamond records & multiple sequined items.



jacket.



polky-dotz (gonnna be so good under my overalls dress, and maybe with gaga hairbow? for when i go to...mars? gay bars? the key foods? all of the above?)



cummerbund (and gaudy rhinestone belt i couldn't resist)



crazytown



obsessed with this shirt already.
SUMMER OF SEQUINZ, COMMENCE.



monday face, hiiiiii.

my life would suck without you, thrift stores

on sunday it was 90 degrees up in here..maybe you fools went to the beach but me, brendan, and steve & brendan's puppy remdog climbed into the bitchbasket (aka brendan's electric blue honda fit) and rolled out to long island for some liesurely thrifting and drive-thru action.



it just feels so good, ya know?



steve basically raped the place of mom shirts. they look great on him, dunno what to tell you.



a brendan find. i say: don't tell me what to do, hippies.



it was remdogz first time thrifting, he did some light reading while we tried stuff on.



steve basically won with this.
MAUVE TUXEDO JACKET THAT IS "MIAMI VICE FOR AFTER SIX". how the fuck do you top that?

with this?



not even.



brendan found a jesus trinket that matches his tattoo.



we tried to get him in on the leather daddy scene (he passed) (big mistake).



steve incognito, swine flu mask + gaga bow + sequined cummerbund = so hot right now.

i will do a separate post bout my haul, spolier alert : IT WAS ALL SEQUINS.
dunno what came over me.

how does one end a day of driving, thrifting, gaga dance partying & taco eating?

one word.



mcflurries.
(dairy queen was not available, although preferred. we did however, find a DRIVE THRU DELI. what in the what? the suburbs can really blow your mind. they have so much!)

yaaaaayyyyy awesome days.

2 legit 2 quit

ohhh hey nowwww...shit is realer than real deal holyfield!

please change your links and bookmarks to:



click that sweet ass, it'll take ya there.

thanks, graham!

i missed you, dorota.

GOOD MORNING BLOGGYBLOGTOWN
i don't know about you but this on and off relationship that gossip girl is having with me is making me CRAZY.
on one week, gone for the next three, back, gone, spin-offs..jeeez. relax.

how great was this week though?
even dan was funny!
let's start here:



someone in their writer's room loves a fantasy costume sequence, danghole.
blair doing a 'guvnah' cockney thing made me hide under the blankets on kat's couch, it was so mortifying.
IN OTHER NEWS: that hat is tres gaga-esque, and ANY EXCUSE TO GET MAH GURL UP IN HERE makes me happy. blogaga.



inconceivable stepdad is back! avec awesome apron! yaaay! please invite me next year?



how HIDEOUS was everyone at that table? dudes, i mean, i know that serena's boyfriend status is a LIFE ALTERING NEWS ALERT but like..this is a fucking religious holiday, mabes we can KEEP A LID ON IT until after dinner.
as a non-jew, i was terribly offended.

also offensive:



serena's nastyass rat's nest. what in the WHAT?! who approved this, you're fired.

what was this dumdum up to?



tell me again...why was LIL J at the van der woodsen's playing monopoly with that poorly cast uncute kid and a mound of sliders n' bendystraws? he can't get to DUMBO?
chuck confrontation over a year later..empowering or feeble attempt to provide peroxyteen with a purpose in this ep? you decide, dear readers.

SIDENOTE: lisa said lil j came into her store the other day and was, to quote, a "horrible creature". not a cute look, tay tay momz!

this whole situation:



was retarded.
first of all? why dont you RUIN SOMEONE ELSE'S SPECIAL EVENT with your own drama? why don't you? oh. you did. WAY TO GO.
also : yale, columbia, cry for me argentina, TOO MANY IVY LEAGUES. waaah.
when nate and blair make out it the most chemistry-less thing ever. they must loathe each other.



heartbreak? cmon. not really. chuck is your true love, nate is boredom boning.
serena's wedding / not wedding love affair with dude who broke up with girl 5 mins ago is like..baffling? what's the point?



intrigue? this part got very 24...as the last few seconds ticked away..ALL IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS! do we care? unclear.

ohhh. hello:



hi.



hey there.
sort of a wasted chuckisode BUT:
"i'm a 17 year old billionaire with great stamina" was pretty spesh.

as a parting note,
i am not sure what to do with this:
"baruch a ta adon-ay dis mio" ??!? spangbrew? hebnish? WHAT?!
gossip girl is SO MULTI-ETHNIC!!

bang up ep, josh schwartz. theeeenkz.

so everyone:
what're your thoughts on the upcoming spin-off? are we watching or no?

Wednesday, April 22, 2009

it's entirely possible that i am just bored.

brendan inked me up over dinner tonight with a bic...possible practice run?



yes no maybe so?

tattoos scare me but if wes would do it, then i would mabes go for it.
cool or dumb. tell me.
i'm full of bad (great) ideas lately, wait til i share my crazy news (soon...).

what i do when i'm supposed to be doing other things

my most recent foray into irritating my pals the fashion department..i tried on the following 2 items in the past week or so:



1. black walter van bierendonck crazyface tee (which was basically an epic teeshirt dress, and sort of DIY-able?). i want. so bad!
EDIT
omg graham is so right, it's totally MIGHTY BOOSH fashion! amaze.

2. miu miu pre-fall black velvet and superchunk wooden platform heels with ankle strap. so so cute. so so HEAVY. not really something i could see myself actually walking anywhere in? but adorbz fer sure.

also super awesome but too teeny to try: vena cava for via spiga (!) moire satin (ish?) black oxfords with studs on the back. i think you want them.

i hope the car comes with

god damn.
get your fucking act together, boys.



this guy is winning, and in a serrrriously major way.
catch up.

pic from glamcanyon

wait, there is a god? is that possible?

JULY 14th WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE



mtv is FINALLLYYY releasing THE STATE on DVD!!!
holy effing hellballz.
i do not think i could be more excited about any one thing everrr.

v. v. timely, mtv! only 15 years late. bravissimo.

warning: michael ian black is unsure whether or not the DVD will give you scarlet fever. eh, totes worth it.

Tuesday, April 21, 2009

clearly i have failed you

how have i missed all of the episodes this v. v. important dramatic series?



for some reason i thought you could only watch these on verizon phones.
nopes, this thing called the "internet" has them all!!
i have failed miserably.
i must catch up, tonight, POST HASTE.

did you all see the commercial last night? COUNTESS DOROTA?

i need to get to the bottom of this.

Monday, April 20, 2009

i'm not really like that, except when i am

last night i watched pump up the volume with marlow and um..it was great all over again.



when's the last time you watched it? SO GOOD! so fucking RACY for a 'teen' movie.
smoking, titties, swearing, darkness, naughty naughty naughty.

nowadays all the kids get are vampires with a staring problem and boys who wear foundation singing in the class play = not hot. i feel for you, youth of america. i do.



samantha mathis' character is so hot....NORA DINIRO, new style icon. lots of long black layers and dark red lips. "the eat me / beat me lady" !



you COULD remake the movie for today, but make it about blogs?
it all works, seriously...one kid's blog incites the boring minded vanilla brains of the small town teens to TALK HARD and then...they LIVE IT UP. and start their own blogs...wait a secondddd..treatment idea?! (gonna make my millionz!)

the b-side version of 'wave of mutilation' in the movie is what got me all amped on the pixies the first time i saw this (at age 12? what was wrong with my parents??



ONE LAST THING; how fucking OLD is seth green??! he was in the movie! as a student! it was almost TWENTY YEARS AGO! deal with the devil much?

rough gem

on saturday i finally made it out to this "fort greene" to check out the flea market that they got goin on over therrrrr.
what a scene, dios mio.
there were like 9 bajillion people.
but it was actually pretty fun.

met up with a posse and perused all the wares.
this lunatic was still around new york, spreading all her SPAIN around:


ece rocking the spanish trend of DOUBLE INTRIGUE

i told myself i would only buy the MOST NECESSARY THING of all time.
for a minute i thought it was this:



i mean, it was SO GOLD.
there was an underdress of sparkly gold and then this CAGE-Y OVERLAY of more sparkly gold..all for 20 bones.

but then i saw these?



and they were so cray-cray? that i couldn't say no?
don't worry, i asked 900 people's opinions before i actually did it, still unclear as to who i think i am but TOO LATE, DONE AND DONE. (oooooooooooopsydoops)

there was much discussion as to WHAT exactly you wear these with.
some ideas:
white leather skirt
neon leggings
american flags
king haile selasse tee-shirt dress
a tuxedo
a prom dress
your mom

...in the end i went with the black and white checkz f21 dress that is a surprising new fave.



i like them a lot.

Saturday, April 18, 2009

you're gonna drive me crazy



i very well may just wear this for the entire summer, fuck it.
ATOMIC SUMMER. (mmkay, that's every summer but this one has special plans in the works....stay tuned)

listen up new york: get outside, shit is HAPPENING!
bust out yr seals & crofts and some icy caffeination and do it up.

okay, time to take my own advice.
see yous in the sunshine.

Friday, April 17, 2009

been waitin for some good to come my way



today makes you realize that the seasons do actually change..it's a little intoxicating (although that may be the lasting effects of last night's vodkas, unclear.)

Thursday, April 16, 2009

it's my blog, i'll be nuts if i want to.

there is really no reason for this post other than to look at this face right here for a while:



hiii mark, hiiiii.
where you been?
i mean..be more handsome why don't you.
sigh.

this concludes today's short episode of bonkerstown theatre, enjoy your day.

fickle fickle. i, for one, am so over it.

dear mother nature,
i have a wish. it's a small wish. a teensytinybaby wish. a teenymctinerson-supersmall-miniscule wish.



i just want it to be warm enough that i can wear my supershiny black penny loafers without tights. IS THAT SO MUCH TO ASK FROM MID-APRIL?

IT'S ALL I WANT.


please stop fucking with me.
xoxo
W.L.

pump up the jamz

what is the sound of a GAUNTLET being THROWN DOWN? hmmm???

ok, i don't know either BUT if it has a noise, you probs heard it yesterday.
i, dear readers, have been served with an epic challenge, one that i am NOT AFRAID OF.



last night derrick & i decided to make each other dueling mixtapes.
but none of this bullshit burned playlist CD..on a real CASSETTE.
no computer anything allowed, and anything goes as long is it's audio.
also all labeling has to be hand done.
he will probably beat me, since he's older and maybe cooler. but NONETHELESS... i accept the challenge.



i used to be a mixtape champ. sigh.
remember when you'd have to tape the tape together cause you listened to it to many times it broke? or your walkman ate it?
dannnnng it
I MISS MIXTAPES.

i was all nostalgic and got superobsessed with the old cassette graphics...i posted a whole bucnh a shizz over on my tumblr..check it!!

Sunday, April 12, 2009

they don't love you like i love you, bowlcut

i would say that i am a casual yeah yeah yeahs fan and an AVID karen o fan...fair assessment? they were on SNL last night and of course her costumes were sick:



i'm not too cool for school..they played maps last night, and it made me happy. i still love that song! you do too, don't lie.

it occured to me as i was watching that i would like to state for the record-

IF I COULD, I WOULD:


clockwise awesomosity: karen o, yokoo, ysl f/w 08, tootie

supershiny black bowl cuts are so seriously dopeshow.
i WISH dear readers, i WISH.

the closest i can get is to grow my bangs long enough to keep me from seeing things properly. i'm aboooooout 2 weeks away.

yokoo, i stole that pic from your flickr, hope it's ok...
