sweet and sour



The colors I wore here were inspired by Danielle's outfit in her guest bartending post on Making Nice in the Midwest. I love the way the aqua and mint look with mustard yellow and peachy orange! Also I hope forever 21 sells these cardigans again at some point, because they're my absolute favorite. I got one in each color they offered last year, and I'm so glad I did! In retrospect though I would have stocked up on white ones so I could dye them a bunch of different colors.

I had to include this next photo, just because I thought it was hilarious how my pose and expression look exactly like my painting of Anna Karina on the wall behind me!

une femme est une femme

scathingly brilliant outfit post with modcloth dress and we love colors tights

dress - modcloth
tights - gift from we love colors
shoes - h&m
belt - forever 21

The last time I wore this dress, I also wore it with blue... not very creative, but I just think it matches the black and white so well! These particular tights were a gift from We Love Colors (excitement galore!!) and I thought that this shade, paired with the red belt, was very Une Femme est Une Femme, no?! (Am I going overboard on the French this week?)

Speaking of movies which star Anna Karina, I did this painting a couple weeks ago, based on a still of Anna in Vivre Sa Vie. I feel like such a stupid goofball when I like my own artwork, but ugh.. I kind of adore it :p It just fits in my room so perfectly (see it peeking above my head in the outfit pictures, in the top left corner?) and I love that I didn't have to pay $90 for a poster of her, when I could paint one instead :D
