for the best

so, christmas was fabulous. i received some gorgeous jewelry, lots of gift cards, books, and money for skiing and my spring break trip! my father got a wii from all of us, so we've been spending a lot of time playing with that. it's funny watching adults get so into a video game!
i cannot believe new years is on thursday! my best friends and i will be spending it in Boston...we're driving up wednesday to have an extra night to party in the city. until then i'll be relaxing, reading, working out, and shopping!

take me away with you, my love

my friends and i just bought tickets to go to The Estate in Boston for New Years Eve! i am so pumped to be in a city when the ball drops. now the only question is... what do i wear?? i'm thinking something very similar to the second outfit will be my final decision. but nevertheless, here is some inspiration!

i'm kind of obsessed with Taylor Momsen's style recently. i've been dying to find a pair of thigh-high tights to pull of some of these looks. any suggestions on where to find some inexpensive ones?

searching for the thrill of it

this editorial is breathtaking. it makes me think of the child's dreams in that movie, Cube, with Jennifer Lopez.

hands down

sorry for my absence! it was finals week and my internet was restricted yet again. i'm home for the holidays now and loving every minute of it. last night i went to a holiday cocktail party and got the chance to dress up! i jump on any chance i get to break out a little black dress and look festive. now that i'm home i'll have a lot more time to post. i couldn't find anywhere that had seasonal hiring, so the next month will be spent hanging out with family and friends, shopping, cleaning out my closet, and working out.
also, i highly recommend that everyone go see Avatar! hands down best movie i've ever seen.

soo sorry about the lack of posts! my internet at school was restricted for the past week and i literally couldn't load anything. i hope everyone is enjoying the holiday spirit as much as i am. last night we had our first real snow fall and i woke up to a winter wonderland. i wish i could stay in bed all day drinking hot chocolate and watching christmas movies... but instead i have a final exam in a half hour. wish me luck!

even though i love fall, it's always fun to layer and break out the scarves and cute hats for winter. shopbop never fails with their lookbook inspiration. this weekend is the last football game of the year and it is supposed to be 25 and snowy. i'll definitely be looking to these outfits for an idea of something cute and warm at the same time.
