These were shot by Tommy Ton of Jak & Jill in Paris. I loved all of the shots on style.com but these especially.

Tavi looks awesome with her hair colour and cut, and her Yokoo chain scarf. I love the textured black dress with the silver/grey leather jacket.

I don’t know how the lady in the second photo bikes in those heels, but I admire her skill and aesthetic.

I wish I could pull of grey hair. I think it looks so great. I love this editorial from Dazed and Confused.

The grey hair perfectly matches the overall light and mute tone. Chiffon and structured garments are what I neeed.

I love the pieces Rodarte did for men. If you like their women’s knitwear, then you like their men’s as well. It’s their famous knitting done in classic men designs. They’re so delicate and intricate, sigh if only I had a SPARE $2,760.oo lying around I would get myself one of these!

I’ll be starting my last semester of my second year of college soon. This will be the third college that I attend in the past two years. Yes, decision-making doesn’t come easily to me, especially crucial ones like choosing a major or a career path. I don’t have any idea of what I want to pursue, well, I have a slight inclination but it’s not substantial. It’s just an experiment, something I would like to “try” and see if I like/am good at it.

I’m still lost. I want to discover a major that I am completely passionate about, to have a distinct direction to guide me, to finish college by 2012, to be content, to find a decent paying job to survive comfortably–if that’s even possible. UGH, another school means another set of requirement classes I have to take, a new environment, different people and professors. I only hope that I figure out what I want to do with my life, and soon.

Is it common to never figure out what one wants to do with their life? Do many of us just go along paths without the motivation of interest? I’m not sure if I ever will figure out what I want to do. I admire those who have paths and a sense of direction, because I lack in those areas. These days I feel as though I haven’t been doing anything. I haven’t been pursuing any keen interests, thinking about potential majors. I have been relaxing, sleeping, watching movies. I wish I would do all of those things for a living, wait no I don’t. Then they would all lose their value, their comfortableness.

I am lost, still. I never was found, I was only under the illusion that I was. I need/want to find myself, figure out a major suitable for my wants and skills. I’m not searching for affluence, just to be content.

Beautiful oversized tweed blazers, gorgeous Ash Stymest (oh what a dream boat… hehe), long legs striped shirt zipper skirt, another double-breasted blazer and Alexa Chung.Things I would love to own and people I would love to trade wardrobes with/people I would love to be. Sigh..

Lately, when I wake up I don’t want to get out of bed. Nowadays I wake up around 12:30pm or 1. Seems like a bad sign but I don’t really care at the moment.

I’m immediately compelled to play this song the instance I open itunes. It’s quite depressing but that’s just the mood I’m in. I may have been swept up in the melancholy of winter.

Double-breasted blazer

I really like Dree’s outfit here. Very casual and comfortable with the black skinny jeans and white top with the perfect oversized double-breasted blazer.

I want you

(fashion squad)

I’ve been hunting for an affordable armour ring but can’t seem to find one. This one is from h&m; I haven’t seen this is any of the h&m’s here ARGG.

I’ve also been considering getting a pair of these Marais army boots. The miniscule heel and length of the boots is particularly appealing, especially since there are on sale on gilt fuse. But I should save up money to spend when I go to SF.

Hmmm, decisions decisions…
