Family Thanksgiving
Yesterday we had fifteen, read it FIFTEEN, people over for Thanksgiving. Brazilians are loud, eat a lot and drink a lot.
All the ladies looked very stylish, especially the ones in my family! Need proof? Here’s my mom….
DRESS: Myth (in Brazil) BOOTS: Arezzo (also in Brazil) TIGHTS: Miss Selfridges (U.K)
My grandpa (mom’s dad) bought these for my mom! Can you believe...

Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful Thanksgiving with friends and family. Eat a lot, drink a lot, don’t drive drunk, hug everyone, etc etc.
Before I go downstairs and start bartending (my allotted role for the day since I don’t cook) I wanted to post a little something since it’s Thankgiving and I wanted to say a little thank you to everyone who reads this thing.
I am...
HOUSTON
I’m leaving town for a few days for Thanksgiving, I’m not sure what my rate of posting will be, but I’ll try to get some good stuff up ASAP. I have things to write nd tell! From rent the runway to Stella McCartney and my new cuff!
Although I might just post photos of Thanksgiving feasts…

Art Star
Today was the final day of the East Austin Studio Tour (E.A.S.T) so I dragged myself off the couch and got dressed to go because I really wanted to go no matter how tempting laziness seemed.
I met Leslie and Matt at Primizie for brunch which was absolutely delicious and I’m so glad I finally got to eat there as I’d been wanting to for a few months.
We then went to a few different...

One Year!
Friday was me and Eric’s (sort of) one year anniversary. I say sort of because
1. we don’t actually remember the exact date 2. we were separated for 2 months so this is the get-back-together anniversary
Kind of complicated and kind of dumb, but anniversaries are pretty dumb. It’s just an excuse to eat expensive food! Which is what we did! We went to Buenos Aires Cafe on east...

Stop and stare.
DRESS: American Apparel SHIRT: vintage TIGHTS: WalGreens BOOTS: Amazon
I heeded Alexis’ suggestion and cut up this vintage sequined top to make it a half shirt. I’ve been hesitant about this particular 80s revival because I do not have the type of stomach/body that should be bared with a cropped top, but with something underneath or some high waisted things, I may be able to pull...

Ga ga, oh la la!
Thanks to Garrett and Megan for both linking me to this video WITHIN TEN MINUTES OF EACH OTHER. I guess they know what I want… Ga videos + McQueen shoes which, as Garrett pointed out, The Ga wears in the video:
Is anyone else kind of scared of her while still adoring her?
I like the white pods that say monster on them, it reminds me of ALIENS when the marines are in similar looking...

Midday Sunsets
It’s winter which means the sun sets before I’ve even left work which has made me a glum person for the past few days. I don’t like having 16 hrs of darkness a day! It’s depressing!
So to brush away the midweek blues, I asked Juliana to come outside for a bit this afternoon so I could take photos of her cute outfit and enjoy the gorgeous sunset.
I loooooove those...
Blog Mistress Failure
My apologies, dear readers, for having been a neglectful bloggette recently. I went to Houston and spent a weekend in pajamas and although I now have photos for you all, I seem to have misplaced my camera cable.
Expect exciting new things ASAP!
Love,
Me.

Afrika Tunic
I wore my new AA Afrika print tunic today for the first time. Here’s me at home wearing it with tights and no shoes (I’ve been in bed since I got home from working eating yogurt and watching Bravo, haha).
My DVD shelf with postcards and my totem pole.

"There are three things a woman really needs at...
Although as a 24 year old feminist I don’t entirely agree with Plum Sykes’ assertion, Oprah’s doing quite well without two of those and what about the lesbian community?!, I found her article on the necessity of a long sleeved dress in every woman’s arsenal very clever and, to a degree, pretty accurate.
Now that fall is upon us and the days are shorter, darker and colder,...

Camera Woes and Halloween Ghouls!
My camera and I had an argument earlier which resulted in my losing half my photos from last night. It’s currently undergoing serious surgery at the Precision Camera store/hospital and will be back tomorrow (hopefully!).
In the meantime, here’s some photos from All Hallow’s Eve
