Well the year is already a day old, and like everyone else on the planet, I’ve got some goals that I want to achieve this year. The thing is though, that I’m not really good with keeping these resolutions. LOL They usually fade into oblivion by March. I think that happens because I always have this ambitious laundry list of things that I want to accomplish and in the end, I’m just overwhelmed with how much I “need” to do, and end up either half assing it, or putting it off until never. Yeah, I said until never. Down with Procratination!

Yeah, another post about Polyvore. I can’t help it. I’m supposed to be studying for my very last final of the semester (which is tomorrow), and my study breaks are getting longer and longer as I waste precious time creating sets. It sucks so much that I don’t have a doppleganger to either study or polyvore for me. Poo! WHY MUST THE HEAVENS BE SO CRUEL!?!

So, awhile ago, I made a few posts about the fashion disasters of Katie Perry, Lil’ Mama, Raven and Beyonce. I kinda felt upset about it for some time, because I felt like someone was out to get these ladies, and decided to make them look like FOOLS in public. And so, in an attempt to prove to myself that looking like who-did-it-and-won’t-admit-it is not the only look these chicas have to choose from, I went pic hunting. I actually left out Beyonce’s better looks, because, well, I don’t think she’s had that many WTF moments in her fashion choices lately. I did however, dig around for some proof of flyness from Katy, Mama, and Rae….

I think I want a new coat. Something cuter than the old pea coat I currently own, and something warmer than my bubble. I was doing some window shopping online at shops such as Delia’s and Alloy because I’m too broke to actually get what I want right now, and they’ve got a few cute ‘uns in stock.

Every girl has that one something that they wear all the time, with everything, and for almost every occasion. Whether it be a purse, a pair of shoes, or your favorite jeans, it is in the eye of the beholder “the ultimate piece”.

My “ultimate” piece is the hoodie/sweater dress. I absolutely love them, because they’re so versatile. Depending on the cut of the dress, it can be worn in many different ways. I personally like sweater dresses without logos or any other distractions because then I can accessorize in any which way I please. Take for example this Delia’s hooded sweater dress I’ve polyvored. It’s the perfect canvas! As you can see, I’ve compiled three totally different outfits using that one dress. I’ve also added a multi colored clutch that works well with each scenario. The pink option kinda spiffs up the otherwise casual frock into something you could wear out with your special someone to dinner and a movie.

Who says good makeup has to cost an arm and a leg?! As a self-proclaimed lip gloss addict, I can tell you that makeup in general is one of my favorite things about being a girl. However, I don’t like having to put a tube of lip gloss or an eyeshadow on layaway. That’s why I love NYX Cosmetics. It’s like getting MAC quality make-up for a fraction of the price plus I don’t have to put up with the too-busy-doing-my-own-makeup-to-help-you makeup artists/sales people and those hot ass vanity lights.

A few years ago, I came across one of the most talented makeup artists/photographers I’ve ever seen. I was browsing myspace–playing 6 degrees and totally bored out of my mind when I happened upon the profile of Melanie Buslon. I instantly fell in love. She had some of the most amazing photograhs I’d ever seen. Vivid and creative, totally spellbinding.

What I think I liked most about her work, was her use of color in the makeup looks. Bold and peircing was her style, and I was feeling it 100%. It was also raw. Like you could tell she wasn’t coloring-by-numbers so to speak, but that she was producing this art through her soul. I tell you, I.was.in.love.

So I have a list of things to do before I die, and one of them is to become a surgeon. Not necessarily a real doctor, since blood makes me squeamish, but a t-shirt surgeon. Yep, I wanna get crafty. I love it when I see other girls wearing pieces they made, and I get really amped to try to put some of my own creativity to use.

Here’s where OH MY STARS comes into play. I think this website is absolutely adorable! The owner of the site is web designer/craft master, Katie. She started Oh My Stars in the summer of 2004 after toying around with her mother’s sewing machine, and ended up creating the awesomely reconstructed T-shirts displayed on her site. Two years later, she’s moved to London where in her free time, she’s begun to explore knitting and drawing, which you can also check out on her site.
