eye dios mio

Hey gals n pals! Happy Tuesday!
Time for FUN WITH PHOTOBOOTH! FUN WITH PACKAGES! FUN WITH EYEWEAR!

Maybe you wreck-a-nize theeeeeesssseeeeeee:

FROM A LITTLE AD CAMPAIGN THAT LOOK-A-LIKE THEEEEES?????!

Oh, yeah. JUST SOME S/S 2010 PRADA NEON EYEWEAR, ALL UP IN MY REAL LIFE.

What can I tell you? I have some really amazing friends.
Who messenger mystery packages to your desk in the middle of the day.
And inside is something as delightful as THIS.

I sent him this jpg and he wrote back, "Don't leave the sticker on!"

forehead is leaking, my AC squeaks

Even though I am an "adult" (air quote fings to the max) I am not above calling my Mom when she's on vacation in Florida and making her go to her local Target to get some teensy capsule collection situation that gets sold out within 100 miles of New York City in a nanosecond.

MOST RECENT CASE IN POINT:

CYNTHIAS & CYNTHIAS IN FULL EFFECT. DALMATION SIDEWALK COURTESY OF LITTERBUG PEDESTRIANS.

Cynthia Vincent for Target print wedge sandals.

Dying over these. I feel like I haven't seen them blowing up on the blogz as much as I woulda thought? These are way more dope than the Zac Posen stuff, no? La la la, I love my new shooooesssss. (After months of buying next to nothing, I have admittedly gone a little bit INSANE on the shoe buying front. There are gold D&G platforms to show you and I am impatiently awaiting my No.6 patent leathah clog order...)

I wore them with the latest addition to my sorta-getting-crazy-sock-obsession (somebody stop me). 

These are Cynthia Rowley sheer anklets and I want to wear them with everything. 

My sartorial mathematix:

Cynthia x Cynthia = Cramazing.

I got so many compliments on these yesterday, it was outta control. 

Everyone I had meetings with, random DUDES on the street, one of the guys that works in my building and an old lady in a bodega!

Neon Guatemalan prints know no bounds, you guys (words to live by) !

good company

You take the good, you take the bad.

good grief..i can't really believe it, that seems both like the longest time ever and no time at all, right?
the past 12 months have been completely bonkers for me personally and BLOGULARLY.

some highlights: my NYT article on tavi & arabelle & teen bloggerz (over A YEAR AGO, really-ahem), this dude KANYE blogging about me (!), having a pretty mayjah milestone birthday (sigh), getting bangs (like, SO IMPORTANNNNT), quitting my job and becoming a gypsy (in progress)... i mean, it's been a massive year, to say the least.

but you know what? i don't want to look back. (...ok, except to the 90s, obvs) (ok yah, and except in the picture above. but that's all, i swear!)

i want to look forward. FORWARDTIMEZ. SEE THE FUTURE. yahhhh.

this blog has totally altered my life in so many weird wonderful ways. so many cool opportunities, so many great people, so much insanity that is still to come.

allow me to say:



thank you thank you thank you to everyone who reads and comments and compliments and emails and comes up to me to say hi at random sporting events...doing this wouldn't be half as fun without all of you, swearswearpinkieswear.
