I'm sad to admit that once again I've let far too much time pass in between posts. However, I do have a somewhat valid excuse. I recently packed up my entire life and moved across the country to live with my boyfriend in Michigan. There has been a lot of change in a short amount of time, but needless to say I am so very happy and things are finally starting to fall into place (more on that later). The horrible news is that my computer crashed the first night of my cross country road trip with my mom. I plugged in my laptop in our motel room, it blue screened, decided to be a stubborn tird and wouldn't let me access system restore (or anything besides a blank screen for that matter) and it's been hasta la vista computadora ever since. BLAH. As if it couldn't get any worse, my boyfriend's MAC crashed literally two days later. I wish I was making this up, but apparently technology hates us right now. THANKFULLY, Brandon is letting me use his sacred work computer to get some blogging in while we try and figure something else out.
SO HERE I AM *awkward lipless shmiegel smile*

In other more exciting news, I was recently contacted by Nastygal to do a little blog collab! They sent me these perfect, beautiful, psychedelic dream leggings a couple weeks back **WHICH ARE NOW ON SALE HERE!!!** and since I was a little delayed in posting, I thought I would include two different looks. everybody loves a twoferrrrrr. I wish I could have an entire body suit made up of rainbow velvet, I'd wear it every day and smile at myself in the mirror whilst saying 'you are the epitome of cool, dudette.'

ALSO. The choker I am wearing in the first look was hand made by my genius boyfriend. These photos do it no justice whatsoever so I will have to do a proper post about it separately. His new site for DARKER is under construction so I will share a link as soon as it's up. He is literally the craftiest person I know, and constantly inspiring me to keep pushing myself and to never stop creating. SERIOUSLY GUYS. MAKE STUFF. doesn't matter what, or how, just do it. It fills you with a sense of happiness and fulfillment nearly nothing else can touch.

MAMADOUX

everything mamadoux-designed and created by elliott beach

styled and photographed by palma wright

hair by heather rose harris

makeup by me

I recently met up to shoot and hangout with my friend Palma, we started talking on instagram and have been trying to meet up for almost a year. we finallyyyy set a date and she was even more sweet, hilarious, and talented than I had imagined. She is the president and face of Mamadoux, an amazingly original clothing line. All of the pieces are designed and made by her boyfriend Elliott Beach (who is incredibly kind and humble). She does everything from makeup & styling to photography and model scouting. Together they are a creative force, and the fact that they are so awesome and fun to hang out with kinda just seems too good to be true. Check out their facebook page here and follow them on instagram! @hateboy2 @elliottbeach @_mamadoux_

also check out my friend heather's work. She is the sweetest, and such a great hair stylist and makeup artist.

in bloom

(wearing: vintage harley davidson tank, vintage skort, thrifted sunglasses)

The past few days have been really amazing for me. I am actually following through on my goals and it feels good to work at actively being the best version of yourself. I've been sewing like a madwoman and I can't wait to share some of the results soooon. Today I woke up and listened to some music, sewed a few things together (that will be up for sale on my etsy soon), enjoyed a delicious organic juice [[cucumber, lemon, mint, & honey]] my sister made for me, and spent the rest of the afternoon swimming in the ocean with my mom and sisters. It was so beautiful and perfect.

I'd forgotten the beauty in mornings at my dad's house. My bedroom aglow with dim purple light. The air is calm and warm, and there's this stillness I wish I could contain in words. Mornings used to be the hardest for me when I was sad, because it's then that you are reminded of whatever sleep allotted you to forget; but now, it's the nights. Trying to soothe your tangled mind and quiet your thoughts enough to rest your eyes. Mornings are the promise of something new, better. I've been trying to look deep inside myself and discover the part of me that invites in negative energy from others, and then why I am so sensitive to it. Noone has the power to shake your inner state but yourself, so am I weak because I am so rattled by external turmoil? I don't think so. What I am realizing is that we are all more connected and knowing than we realize. We sense things, feel things- some of us are more intune with that than others.

But I know I am going to stop beating myself up over my innate tendency towards sensitivity.

I'm a feeler.
