something picasso yard sale

So I'm joining the legions of fashfash bloggers out there who have already set up e-shops, by creating my own... yard sale?

Summer is upon us in full force and I find that staying up until the wee hours of the morning, then waking up at 2 in the afternoon (and doing scarce little during those in between hours) is probably not the most productive use of my time. Therefore, I've decided I'm going to try to tame the monster that is my closet, and I hope that some of you may benefit from it.

Mmm and that's the story behind SOMETHING PICASSO YARD SALE.

PS: There's a graphic on the sidebar that links to my yard sale. Yes, its the yard sale sign, smart cookies you guys are, ez access whooooooooo!1!!!!!!11111111!

dannijo

I am mildly obsessed with Dannijo jewelery! I first saw their jewelery while scouring the web for neat armor-ish rings and found this one, which I've put in a few outfit posts because I just can not get over it. And now that I've browsed through the entire collection (well, actually three collections), I want it allll. Mmmm I only wish I could see this stuff in person and marvel at its wonderfulness.

PS: Oh, the Dannijo Jacinda ring is in the post below, ta-da. Don't forget to drop a comment there for a chance to win an Elizabeth&James tee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

middle kingdom

A roof that took no nails to build, undies and jeans hanging out to dry, paint-splattered stunnas that I wore nonstop, Coke vanilla gone foreign, and an inspirational quote written on an old wall. Say hi to China!

monochrome

Back from China! Blogger was blocked so updating was nearly impossible. Prior to leaving, I was in dire need of easy, walking shoes so the day before jetting off to the middle kingdom, I picked up these black monochrome Converse. I've noticed that the quality of Converse has gone down in the last few years, there used to be thicker laces and Chuck Taylor used to be printed on the aglet, mmm among other things. It's good to be back, expect more updates about the trip I took 2000 photos so there's plenty to share...

packing

Trying to keep my wardrobe to the bare minimum. And picking only things that I will be guaranteed a good wear or two. I just hope my flights don't get delayed because of swine flu inspectors, gah what madness.

must magazine

The platform shoes, the structure,the locations, just everything, everything. Here's the source, to look at the rest.

Oh and did I mention, this is the last day of finals? And the last automated most you'll see from me in a while. And now I have to move back home, pack pack pack, get my shit together, and the next time I update (read: in real time not in automated posts from mid-April) will be from Shanghai!

swirls

It should be a crime to make stuff this good, really. Blackberries, raspberries, mango. Mmmm a little bit of heaven.
