Snooooww!


Awww. Taking a quick break from school to share this. It FINALLY started to snow today. Jade seemed to like it a great deal :3 Good thing I don't have to go anywhere, my tires are effed!

Hope everybody's well! Looking forward to catching up on schoolwork so I can work on other stuff, too!

OMG SHOES.

I've been meaning to share my collection for quite some time, but never felt like hauling all my shoes out of their boxes and bags. I was in a funk over the state of our bedroom and wanted to rearrange some things, so  Jade and I ventured out today and got a super awesome (and CHEAP!) expandable shoe rack from Walmart and took a quick snapshot :D I CAN'T RESIST. I still have so many more pairs at my mom's house for some reason, but here's the bulk of 'em!


The only thing that sucks is that high wedges don't sit on it so well :/ Small price to pay! But one day I'll get all of  my shoes in one place and share (and take better photos, ha)!

Bre's week in links 1-6-12

LOVE. (source)

Happy New Year!!! Got a lot going on these coming weeks, I have a badass commission for another Seattle salon's website that I'll be working on, school starts back up on Monday (AND I'm taking on extra tutoring this quarter as well!), PLUS Jade's first birthday is coming up on the 17th, so I'm hoping I'll be able to keep up with all that AND the blog, as I've grown quite fond of it this past month :D For now, here's what I was ogling this last week!

I love this. Crime breakdown by astrological sign. I'm pretty into astrology and believe in it immensely, so this is totally fascinating to me.

DIY sequin headphones! *screams* I am SO in love with this blog, so many neat (sparkly!) ideas!

How to write your personal mission statement, from Gala.

This is one of the sweetest things I've ever seen. A love letter a day for 2011.

I really love these Andy Warhol prints. I want them everywhere.

Love this post on crafty organization! I LOVE ORGANIZATIONNNN.

A friend of a friend acted as Brad Pitt's character in a remake of the normally tragic "what's in the box" scene of Seven, but reworked it into sort of a dark photographer comedy. I think it's so awesome!

Ever want to listen to music on your phone in the shower, but can't hear it over the water? Here ya go. (By the way, TOTALLY used to record songs off the radio! And I, too, worshiped the Spice Girls. No shame in that! Where do you think my obsession with platform shoes came from?! Hahaha!)

Elycia shares her monthly blog planner. I'd totally benefit from something like this.

Another gem from Gala: In praise of calling it quits.

Carissa Rose is having another sale on her GORGEOUS prints! 30% off with code NEWYEARS30 through this Sunday! Go stock up, I know I will!

In super-duper fangirl news, the one, the only Aimee Echo herself reposted my last blog post to her Facebook yesterday! AHHHHHH I CAN'T BREATHE!!! <3 <3 <3!!!

Until next week! Love you guys <3

Style Covet #2 - Aimee Echo

Live photo by the incomparable Six!
Today's coveted style comes from my favorite singer EVAR, Aimee Echo of theSTART, Normandie, and Human Waste Project fame. Not only does she have the gorgeous vibrato-laden voice of an angel, she is whip-smart, completely gorgeous, grounded, grateful for every fan she has, and socially conscious (she's also a badass yoga instructor!). I. Love. Her. Every time I meet her, she is sososo wonderful.

So, here's my style board. This dress is TO DIE FOR and I immediately thought of her first thing when I saw it!  And you can't forget the fabulous Fluevog hoof boots! <3





Aimee

American Apparel seamed stocking, $17
Lace up boots, 599 CAD

Shoes-day Tuesday #13 - Stripes

1. Christian Louboutin Sing Sing striped wedges $136.50
2. Giuseppe Zanotti striped slingback canvas peeptoe pumps $750
3. Charlotte Olympia striped wedges $239
4. Jeffrey Campbell Lita in black/white stripe $166.00
5. Bebe Clarice in black suede $124.99
6. Pinup Couture Bettie-18 $56.99

I'm not entirely sure what it is about black and white stripes, but I've been obsessed with them since I was an angsty teenager and constantly wore striped tights and combat boots. Hahaha, I was a total Hot Topic goth kid, but of all the atrocious "alt" trends I clung to, the stripe one never went away, and that's perfectly okay.

ACK. In band class, age 15 - 1999!


(I totally still have all my old tights!)
