Princes Street

صورة
A couple weeks ago I was invited to LF's "secret" sale, which made everything 70% off. Of course I took advantage and picked up these beauties by Sam Edleman. They remind me of something a prince or princess or Alladin would wear, if they weren't stuck in their particular time or setting. When I was in Edinburgh a week ago for the Fringe festival there was much talk of a place called Princes Street. I never visited, but thats where I got the post title. How has everyone been? Summer is drawing to a close. Im getting on a plane in the morning. Ive just recently seen a healer and visited the doctor and had a mani/pedicure and am feeling increasingly relaxed and creative. Hopefully this new inspiration and well being lends itself to the blog. Im also watching The Royal Tenenbaums for probably the 5th time this month. Wes Anderson is some sort of genius.

Last Days of Summer

Such an easy, go to outfit. The tank is actually a bathing suit. I absolutely love these American Apparel denim shorts. Finally I got the Cambridge satchel on the blog, it is so cool, and extremely bright. I had the initials TSW (the blog's) engraved on the bag since I thought it sounded way more mysterious than my real initials. Mysterious like those vintage leather bags you find in antique stores with gold lettering on it like E.M.H or something. And you wonder what person with those beautiful initials owned it. I stole this watch from my friend Zeke. I had had my eye on it for a while and when he came back from two weeks at Brown University I grabbed it as soon as I could. After two weeks of my own, I had to return it. However, by the time you read this my personal one will have arrived in the mail. Huzzah! American Apparel bathing suit and denim shorts, Cambridge Satchel neon bag, Timex x J Crew watch.

Bought this jacket at the flea market after my birthday. Its officially the best thing to wear to a party with jeans and a vintage shirt. Actually, one of the best nights this summer was at a party with this jacket on. The boys really liked it. So did the girls. This is actually a scheduled post since I am on a trip to Europe with a bunch of friends. I'll try and see if I can get photos! Vintage sequin jacket, American Apparel chiffon shirt, Anthropologie bra, American Apparel corduroy skirt, Jeffrey Campbell heels, The Stylish Wanderer x Mr. Kate bow ring.

Notes On The Surgery

I dont know why it took me so long to write about it, since it happened way back in June, however Im finally getting to the part about my surgery. All throughout elementary school sports and theatre class exercises, yoga poses and swimming, I had trouble breathing and inhaling deeply. Finally, in February we went and visited a doctor, who told us that the left side of my septum was 80% deviated. On top of that, because of the extra pollution in Los Angeles and the irritation caused by insufficient breathing, the other side closed up the remaining passageway, so virtually no air was coming out of my left nostril. This is why I had elongated sicknesses, headaches, occasional trouble sleeping etc. etc. The doctor told me the surgery would change my life. And so we scheduled an appointment, and there we have it. He went in and straightened the septum, and I came out with a slightly different nose. I am fully healed now and enjoying breathing fully for once. Hope that wasn't too much of

The final chapter in the series. This was the last crown I made, and my favorite. Paired with this white maxi dress from Urban Outfitters I couldn't have been more summery. Urban Outfitters dress and boots, Casbah cafe leather backpack.
