HAPPY OLYMPICS!!!

bloody mary

this sort of feels like a disaster. the first few images are all 'haha! you're doing it wrong!' in a way i quite like as a person who can't ever style outside the lines cause ORDER!

and then even when it is tidy. there's something shaken about it. like what my grandma would've worn out on the town in her late 20's if she was a bit more dissatisfied and a bit more drunk.

screeeeeeeeeee

what i will say is:

PEPLUM CAPE!

and now i must excuse myself to go run in circles weeping joyfully and waving my arms with abandon because this is a glee which cannot be contained.

(and if i were forced to say more i would say: double peplum military jacket, bitches!)

ff

olympics edition!!! holy cow olympics.

okay. so. there's this documentary that aired about female weightlifter zoe smith and her teammates hannah powell and helen jewel. and some people on twitter were ass-hats about it and were all about how they weren't very feminine or they were probably lesbians or that they should go back to the kitchen.

and zoe smith wrote this super great thing on her blog about it and i smiled lots.

yay i love it!!! haha! that's part of why i love the olympics so much. physical achievement, guys! what can these bodies of ours do if we work hard enough? AMAZING THINGS!!! and it isn't about looking seeexxxxyyyy (although, damn all that muscle definition sure doesn't hurt on the eyes). it is about strength and skill and overcoming mental hurdles and physical hurdles and yay yay yay!!! i love it. i love it i love it. so excited i might explode.

mommy and me

when i think of diane von furstenberg i think wrap dresses and prints and making people like my mom cool. but this collection is pretty youthful. it might even probably make me cool. like the honeycomb sweater?! and the first egg-speckle suit. and this is good, too, cause my mom is too cool anyways.
