PRE-THANKSGIVING

Hi everyone!

Happy almost-Turkey Day!  I know I haven't been posting much lately, but I just finished with exams yesterday.  Hopefully, I'll be posting a video and some beauty and outfit posts later in the week! 

Tonight I'll be going to my friend Todd's house for our pre-Thanksgiving ritual (you can never have too much food, am I right?), so I'll be sure to take some pictures and give y'all an update soon!

Have a great holiday!

Music Monday 2

Welcome back everybody!  Last week's Music Monday is a song that I would listen to if I was at a party or really pumped up and happy.  This week's song is a little more down-tempo, as most of my music is.  

This is Hozier's "Take Me To Church," which is by far my favorite song at the moment.  If you turn it up loud enough in your car, you can feel the beat in your chest.  I also really appreciate the religious nuances in it.  The music video is interesting to say the very least.  I really believe in the gay rights movement, and I think this video is a beautiful commentary on the mistreatment of these people in communities all around the world.

All in all, Hozier is on track to make more fabulous music!  Check out his page on iTunes and Spotify! 

What is yall's favorite song?

Pop Art Love

For those of you who don't know me personally, I am very interested in art.  Although I will never be an artist (because I can't draw to save my life), I love to look at inspirational art.  Recently, I've been really interested in pop art and art imposed over images, like magazine pictures.

Do you guys think this is cool?  Something you would ever try?

Hi everyone!  Hope you are having a good week.  
On Saturday, I took a trip to the High Museum in Atlanta for my AP Art History class.  I had such a wonderful time!  I went alone (because I'm a loner), and it was very relaxing.  I was there to see a Cezanne exhibit (see his work here) which was really cool, but I found myself more drawn to the modern art, especially things with reflective surfaces I guess.  How vain. 

Do you guys like going to museums? 

MUSIC MONDAY

I've decided to start doing Music Monday posts! Music is a huge part of my life.  I can't imagine going a day without music playing at every moment.  I even listen to music during class. 

My taste in music could easily be described as eclectic.  I love alternative rock, classic rock, EDM, chillwave, underground, witchhouse, and many others!  Music is one of the things I love to talk to people about.

This week's Music Monday song is Wick-It the Instigator's mashup of:

Buddy Holly by Weezer

Shout by Tears for Fears

Hustlin' by Rick Ross

Groove is in the Heart by Dee Lite

Boyz by MIA

What kind of music do y'all listen to?

HOMECOMING

All these pictures are from our Homecoming After Party.  I brought a disposable film camera because I hate how people take so many pictures on digital cameras at parties.  It makes me feel like I'm being watched or something.  Anyways, these pictures finally got developed and I'm really happy with how they turned out!  The camera I used was from Urban Outfitters, and had a bunch of really cool sayings on the film.  My personal favorite was "no regrets" which you can see (sorta) on the picture of me and my boyfriend, Carson.  I would definitely recommend these cameras to anyone looking to have a fun photo souvenir from a party or event.  My one hang-up was that the text was off-centered, but I actually think it looks kind of cool.  I love them :)

NOVEMBER WISHLIST

Heels - Nasty Gal

Cape Dress - Nasty Gal

Hat - Urban Outfitters

Jacket - Nasty Gal

Boots - Doc Marten's

Whenever Fall rolls around, I find myself leaning more towards blacks and grays.  Even though this season's racks are filled with fur coats, I'm leaning more towards leather.  Then again, when am I not leaning towards leather?  I feel like a good leather motorcycle jacket is  always in season, either over a pair of wine-colored skinnies for Fall or a presh crop top/shorts combo in the summer.

Both pairs of shoes I picked are easily wearable, but also fun, easy staple pieces to build a variety of outfits around. 

The dress and hat are here because I'm still feeling the fashion inspiration from AHS Coven.  I mean did you see Jessica Lange rocking the black peplum dress? Literal perfection.

xoxo, Leena
