clothing post for the first time in ages

[fahye]

Today I accomplished absolutely nothing in the realm of study, BUT, I had fun! It was bizarre! It was like a real weekend or something! ryokophoenix and I shopped for many things, and I spent waaaaay too much money on green eyeshadow and clothes from Review (<333).

I bought the same top in two different colours because it is a magical top, I swear to God, it is a top with superpowers.





See?? MAGIC. Reduced from $89 to $15, of course I had to buy two. The other one is purple.



And this jacket, reduced from $250 to $75. I do not think it was ever worth $250, to be frank -- Review is a lovely brand but FIENDISHLY EXPENSIVE -- but it is pretty smashing for $75. My mission to own mostly clothes that can best be described as 'smart' continues! Also, check out how much volume this haircut gives me, whoa. I have a better picture of how fair-and-vaguely-curly it is at the moment:



My hair straightener has been tossed aside with a cackle of gay abandon! I have WAVES! It's awesome.

Anyway.

What were we talking about. RIGHT.

After the shopping we saw Scott Pilgrim vs. The World which I enjoyed the hell out of. I mean, I had a couple of big problems with it which I will discuss with you if you so desire, but they did not interfere too much with the overall enjoyment.

And now I'm alternating between staring at my WIP and watching Dara O'Briain clips on YouTube.

Good day :)

magic top is magical. *nods* the clothes and hair look great! :)

That jacket is SWEET. It reminds me of something Janelle Monae would wear.

Scott Pilgrim! So many problems, and yet. Mostly I just love it because it's a movie about my city.

I enjoyed Scott Pilgrim, too, but I would love to hear what problems you had with it.

I LOVE that jacket! And also your magical boob-delineating top.

If that top doesn't have superpowers then I DON'T KNOW WHAT DOES.

Scott Pilgrim was really fun :D it was the sort of movie that was just so enjoyable to watch that any problems sort of breezed by me, in a way.

That IS magical. :DDD It's so lovely on you.

And now you're reminding me I need to do a Stuff Wot I Made post!

How are you so pretty? And you have fantastic taste in clothes. :D

Dara O'Brian! \o/

Wow, I LOVE your hair right now!

Your hair is so pretty!

And that shade of red (in the shirt) is beautiful.

I *heart* the new jacket.

(Also completely agree re: Review pricing -- they have some lovely stuff but completely overpriced considering the quality. Definitely on my "only buy if on sale" list.)

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World which I enjoyed the hell out of. I mean, I had a couple of big problems with it which I will discuss with you if you so desire, but they did not interfere too much with the overall enjoyment.

Scott Pilgrim was one of those movies where all the problems I had re: characterisation could be ignored in favour of Ridiculous Fun. In any case the comics, perhaps obviously, are better as far as character and relationship development go.

Oh my. That top. Um. Spectacular. Yes, spectacular is the word we need here. Although the camera angle is probably helping, too.

Review is such a strange brand. I find the sizing rather odd, and the mixture of clothing pieces which I've seen/owned from them is rather mismatched. The skirt I bought for K (second-hand, six dollars) was Review. Plain grey serge skirt to mid-calf, with *pockets*. Just this side of frumpy, really. And yet they do tops like this one of yours. STRANGE.

You look totally gorgeous. I love that hair.

[littledust.livejournal.com]

I LOVE YOUR HAIRCUT. Also your clothes, but HAIR. *_*

Re: Scott Pilgrim, the comics are better. They're not perfect, but the movie gave Roxie another character's weak point, f'r instance.

You look FABULOUS. Love the top, jacket, and hair all three!
