Holy Ghost People








Hype me on Lookbook!

But in other news, today I played dress up with my new 1950's thrift store find. Curled hair, red lipstick, and saddle shoes complete the picture.

Vintage Throwback

It's ok to dress slutty if you look vintage-inspired, right?



My gentleman friend needs help moving out, so I figured I would dress impractically and watch him move instead of contribute. Yay warm weather!

La La Love You



So back in October of 2009 I was lucky enough to see one of my favorite bands, The Pixies, live at the Aragon Ballroom. Since the first time I moved to Chicago and saw the Aragon off the red line I've wanted to go to an event there, and when I found out a band I actually love was playing, well I got pretty excited. Crazy outfit excited. The Aragon is beautiful inside and out, so I included some pictures* of that too. Have a happy spring break time! We just got back from ours, which is sad. Let this make it better.

*Pictures taken by a friend, not me.

East Meets West


This is a beyond amazing shirt my good friend Sally Johnson made in weaving class in high school. The assignment was East meets West, so she made a kimono style top out of denim with beautiful rainbow silk. I modeled it for her so she could submit it to a contest. I still think this is one of the most innovative yet wearable designs I've ever seen.

In addition to the Sally Johnson original top I am wearing Urban Outfitter's jeans and vintage cowboy boots. Photography done by Sally Johnson, make-up and hair done by Allie Moore (2007).
