yes, it really IS that pretty*

"If fashion fixes are your sugar highs, you'd better be sitting down. Today, Lanvin releases the complete lookbook for their collaboration with H&M, and it's (really) even better than we expected. Cocktail dresses have mesh overlays embroidered with Golightly-esque gemstone "necklaces." Shoes have lush silk ribbons and floral prints. Faux fur is piled high, and cinched with satin bows. This is a Dress Up Box collection for grown-ups and it's kind of a dream.

The entire line hits stores on November 23 - that's a Tuesday, for those planning your "I'm too sick to work" day - and for now, here's a hysterical video and some shots of the outfits seen on screen."

[Thanks, Faran.]

Lanvin x H&M

There are dangerous things I'd do for something from this line. Dangerous things...

it's all fair game*

 tonight's song: he's not a boy by thelike.

 #thingsthatarentfair: alexa chung always looks amazing

 [tonight is one for reminiscing. hello, gossipgirl season two.]

 current obsession: i like.

theresa, it's enough that youre so beautiful.
it's not fair that you have an insanely cool blog, too. #justsaying

xoxo

the battle's in your hands now*

[i would like to be her tonight.]

all im thinking is:

"omg im so bad at math. #butreally

 thank you God for giving me atleast one skill in my love for language.

 please, SAT, please be kind to me. you could make my dreams come true."

i wish: i could sit somewhere with hundreds of lanterns

 in a princess dress, drinking white hot chocolate.

but mostly, my heart whispers "please come back, james. please"

happy tuesday, i guess.

xoxo

let's play a game..*

if i were in america tonight id have taylorswift's new album already, and not have to wait forever. id also be watching the gg episode where lil j comes back. and, if i stayed for another six days, i could celebrate my favourite not-really-a-holiday in a place where they appreciate the brilliance of it. #justsayin 

xoxo

everyone has their own sound*

i want to shatter something. throw it across the room and hear it break. but then i want to dance in a greengreen garden dusted with sparkly things that the sun hits perfectly. and to feel like everything is happening in slow motion.

today's song obsession: let it out now by leeland. currently addicted to calla. the day was filled with: new old bedrooms. writing loveletters. us, just being.together in the best way. longing for: new places. beautiful snow with miss adachi. and our long awaited skype-date.

You ride away
as though it's

already behind you

Lost to marvelous things

discarded

for me to gather

all the broken

skeleton leaves

and torn dragonfly wings

tied together

like soft whispers

shhhhh...

don't let them touch

can't let them see

drowning now
like butterflies

in a honey sea.

reading justagirl. makes me go "awww". and makes me love you even more. and. it makes me realise that maybe (just maybe) i should ease up, bc shame you really like him.

  "I love you, more than blurs on my eyelashes (tinted with eventide) and the summer sunset at twilight and bird faces on the moon. (Your ladder to the stars)"

my world hurts when youre not in it. and that seems like all the time these days...

xoxo

square one is lightness*

i found my truelove today.

on made.

between his ghostchair wayfarers, his love for the 50s and his amazingly preppy outfits..

i can just tell, it's meant to be!

and if for some reason he doesn't feel the same way.. #highlyunlikely

il find love in: cotton shirtdresses, reading in the sunshine, walking across bridges, early morning beach moments, beautiful doorways, being the only one in the street, staring up at the sky, or into the ocean..

waiting: for thursday. craving: lemon sorbet and heavenlyhash. listening to: coldplay.

all i want to do tomorrow is learn to play guitar.

today's song obsession: introducing me by nickjonas.

these photos [via pepperandchips] are exactly how i feel tonight.

xoxo

you should be so lucky*

"yes i own the hotel, and live in it. my life is very much like monopoly"

 ilovethismovie :) two favourite songs so far: big yellow taxi. and magic moments. haha and theyre testing the bed's bounciness. this is a GREAT movie* lovely lovely movie. hugh grant, you rock my world. and sandra bullock rocks yours. ah love* hmmm. shall i watch youvegotmail next? perhaps. tomorrow is simply asia day. i love the concept of i make. you wear it.  and generally im not a fan of those 'fill in your version of the survey' things. at all. but hey. why not...

flowers or shapes? flowers please. in my hair, and in vases around my house like in thegreatgatsby. but if stars count as shapes, stars always win. always.

"but if it's any consolation, i will be dead eventually."

"that's just silly. have you met everybody on the planet?"

my favourite disney villian: i dont like villians. they scare me. i generally scream at them. and the main character for trusting them. every.time.i.watch.it. do they never learn?

my favourite clothing item when i was little: um. how little? i went through so many phases. when i was like.. a baby. my strawberry dress, (HIMYM moment: "her name was strawberry!!") my mommy embroidered it. later on...3/4 pants. and platforms. haha. yes i had kicks. i lost one when we lived in the hotel in atlanta. yes lived. for long. best experience ever. the losing of the shoe ended the phase. but it was okay, bc id just had my pink fakesnakeskin pants made. OH YES I DID.

rightnow, id most like to wear: hmm. the chiffondress blair's minion wears to the snowflake ball.

the worst thing i ever did was: perhaps that time i pretended to have run away and my parents got all the neighbours involved in the search for me. only to find id been hiding in the secret compartment of my cupboard for hours? i dno, that could be it...

where is your cellphone rightnow? on the table next to me. i just got an sms from victoria. reminding me of what id said.

"okay, we obviously can't leave you alone with a stapler"

my hair: NEVER grows. whhhy does it hate me?! don't answer that. actually, maybe do.

"like a bobcat salty type pretzel.. because that's what men want."

when i grow up i want to be: mostly the girl i described yesterday. the girl who sparkles when she walks. and lives in the moment. the girl who lights up a room. who lights up his eyes. i want to always be living out my passion. i want to always be living for jesus. living with god as my centre. i want to inspire your hearts. i want to be honest and trusting. spontaneous and true. to be the most sincere, loyal friend. i want to be an encouragement. to be a source of strength. never to need to run to someone, but to always have people in my life who i can run to. i always want to believe in love, wishing on stars and the beauty of dreams. more than anything else, all ive ever wanted to be, is truly happy. truly deeply completely happy.

"If we want to save anything, we first need to

truly appreciate it"

-Bernard Weber, Founder of New7Wonders

[this morning before work, i sat outside in the sun and read* my favourite quotes from what i read follow]

"For there is nothing heavier than compassion. Not even one's own pain weighs so heavy as the pain one feels with someone, for someone, a pain intensified by the imagination and prolonged by a hundred echoes."

[totally addicted to skins now. and cassie. aka hannah. she's troubled and pretty and dresses like a princess* yes i will spend my days stalking her. im sad that she leaves. but having read her character's full story, i appreciate the happy ending]

"loves are like empires: when the idea they are founded on crumbles, they, too, fade away."

"You can't measure the mutual affection of two human beings by the number of words they exchange."

— Milan Kundera

i had the greatest evening with B lastnight*

driving. yes driving. bc now she can legally drive. stalking her amazing blog. maths. youtube. hotchocolate. skins. actions to songs with dramatic endings. the romantic cd and the song i still have stuck in my head. i will love you forever.

my brother's allangray interview is right now. good luck, tim.

"And in the end we only regret the chances we didn't take, the relationships we were afraid to have, and the decisions we waited too long to make..." i conclude with:

"Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved.” -President Thomas S. Monson

and a congrats to the usa :)
