Hey! It's a skirt for people who live in a city like mine!

 Holy cow!  This YMC culotte-chambray-circle-skirt contraption is pretty awes!  I'm totally into the idea of a quote-unquote denim skirt that does not require a pair of heinous black bike shorts underneath as wind protection.  Freedom. 

If you would have told me 5 years ago that I would have been interested in a pair of culottes, I would not have been pleased. 

Too Much?

I have wanted a pair of Osborn oxfords for quite some time now.  And, I think this dress is way far cool, too.  A + B, and I kind of really want to WEAR THEM TOGETHER.  Omg.  Too much?!

This is prettttty.

THIS HOUSE IS AWESOME.

 Uhhhh, teacups?!?

Ohhhh yeah. Just one more.

 

Ohmygod!  Finished!  No more, Lindsay!  You're no thousandaire!!

Also, while I'm thinking about it.

I guess there are a few other things I might like to possess this season, too.  Want want want.

Uh oh.

Welp.  It's the spring.  That means that I want to buy things.  Shit.

Pops & I went to Seattle!

   I've been a bit on the absent side lately, as life has become rather busy.  Between finishing the semester at school and taking the first vacation with my father since I was 15 years old, I've had a bit to do.

We visited Seattle & Bellingham, wherein we saw lotsa flowers, hiked, ate lotsa food, drank lotsa beers, laughed with old friends, took a couple of absurdly backlit portraits, bought a pretty cool old fisherman's vest, and endured weather, dare I say, more miserable than Chicago's.  It was a totally awesome time.

Stuffs for the iPhone.

I have finally joined this century!  I now have an iPhone!  

Of course, within 9 days of owning it, I have managed to drop it on the pavement and crack its LCD screen.  Today, on day 16 of ownage, I am thinking I should probably invest in some protection items.  I reallllly want that Clare Vivier pouch, but then a blue pen will probably explode in there, and all I'll have to show for myself will be an ink-splattered leather bag and a semi-useable phone.  A day in the life of a klutz.

Calllll meeeee.

Welllll, lookee here!

 Stephen Eichhorn's at Urban Outfitters!  I might just have to purchase this very affordable piece, paint that heinous silver-y distressed frame white, and add it to the collection.  Way far cool.

I have just applied to grad school!

Ladies and gentlemen, the application is in!  Not 5 minutes ago!  I am officially an applicant!  Gaudy, adjective-driven essay written!  Financial aid form completed!  Resume impressified!  Master of Social Work, here I come!  Hopefully!  If you let me in, Programs!

(This is not a picture of me applying to graduate school.  This is a picture of me making pizza.  No pictures of the former exist.  Such is life.) 

WHAT are these new Mociun items up on Totokaelo?!

 

How have I never seen this stuff before?  Those asymmetrical tanks are totally, way good.

PS.  Cute model, I love you.

I have a gigantic, mayoral crush on Miguel Del Valle.

Mr. Del Valle came to the community center a few weeks ago to talk to our students about his mayoral campaign, and I am here to tell you that he is a mayoral dream boat.  Like a giddy little schoolgirl, I am really looking forward to checking his name on the ballot tomorrow, whether or not I think he has a chance at winning this election.  And, yes, that's me, front and center, grinning like a mega-nerd.

Love Party

 We spent most of Rachel's party on the floor, delighting over each others' valentines.  It was pretty good.

Happy Love Day! Past Tense!

This year, my valentines featured prominently the beloved fifth member of my household, Dorka.  Dorka holds a dear place in both my heart and my dining room walls, and she did a lovely job modeling for her valentines and hand penning each.  On Sunday, Rachel held a little love soiree wherein me and my pals brought handmade valentines to exchange.  We also made little valentine-mailboxes, which was my favorite part.
