and there is only the dance

American Apparel tank top, Flying Tomato shorts, Miu Miu bag

Home again after five days out seeing shows, a personal record I'm comfortable keeping. Cute dresses every day are fun but it's nice to be back in my room, lying around and catching up on internet things. Dragged my friends to South Coast Plaza so I could see the Miu Miu store, and found that this bag I'd been eying finally went on sale. It's light to carry and the perfect size, love it. My friends thought I was weird for cuddling it but hey, it is printed with kitty cats...

five ways of looking at a Miu Miu shirt

Okay, basically this post is fashion porn. I've been obsessing over this collection since the runway show last fall, and I'd consider this my first ever real investment piece purchase. As Carrie Bradshaw once said, "I like my money where I can see it...in my closet." But, actually, I like it in my wallet and bank account too. So I'm gonna let it chill there for awhile now. Unlike the rest of me, which will be DYING OF HEAT. 106 already, Vegas? Really? California's calling my name in more ways than one.

Tomorrow I fly back to LA for a record store performance, then back here to hang out and do some work, then back to California for a couple more shows, then to Oregon to visit my grandparents. I will probably wear this shirt everywhere.


Shirt, Miu Miu. Skirt, vintage. Sunglasses, Buffalo Exchange.






Sweet wall, bro.



This is pretty much my outfit of the summer...I'm super into this skirt right now, it pairs well with a ridiculous number of things, plus it's floaty and pretty and light. (Did I mention the 106 degrees thing?) And though heat rises, I still can't resist a nice pair of platforms to send me skyward.

I do want to shoot this shirt again at some point, maybe when I'm not wincing from the heat. Maybe I will take it to LA (again) and see if I can't coax a friend to take some halfway decent shots of it.

Hope you are all well, and staying cool. ♥
