if i could wear your clothes, i'd pretend i was you and lose control

I'm okay with being seen in public in this outfit. It's what I wear for when I go on walks. The kind of walks where I do random interpretive dance moves depending on what Kylie song plays on my first generation iPod Nano. Yeah. Those kind of walks.

hoody: San Jose Sharks store.....tanktop: Target
shorts: Target
socks: Target.....Nike sneakers: Kohls
baseball cap: Target

so, all you fly mothers, get on out there and dance

July 31 - This is what I've worn in 80-degree weather. No, seriously.


sweater: H&M.....top: Nordstrom Rack.....skirt: Target
socks: Target.....shoes: Converse

Lately, I find myself covering up my arms but letting my (ghostly) legs get some sun.

you played through my mind like a symphony.

July 25, 2011 - This was my attempt to look a bit more polished for work:


sweater: Ross.....dress: Ross
mini-socks: Target.....shoes: Nine West

Rachel and I had gone to Ross the week before. The dress was $6.49. The sweater was $12.99. Before the insane CA sales tax, the outfit's total was $19.48. I can't pass up a deal like that.

i feel the night explode when we're together.

the late afternoon of July 17, 2011 - Brian and I walked all over downtown San Jose. I brought along my camera to photograph my outfit. Why not.

sweater: H&M.....top: Gap.....denim leggings: JC Penney
socks: Target.....shoes: Converse Chuck Taylors
purse: Liz Claiborne, gift from Brian's mom

I seriously wore this outfit to an A's baseball game earlier that day (along with a leather jacket). Rachel and I endured the heat to see the A's beat the Angels. It was 80s weekend, so we were treated to Taylor Dayne's divine singing of "Tell It To My Heart" and the National Anthem, MC Hammer bobbleheads, MC Hammer throwing out the first pitch, and vintage A's commercials. Also, our tickets were $19.89 a piece, to celebrate 1989. Awesome blossom.

Both Rachel and I hadn't been a MLB game in FOREVER. We definitely had a fun time!

What's the matter, Colonel Sandurz? Chicken?!

Wednesday, July 13 - Brian and I attended the Starlight Cinemas showing of Spaceballs in San Pedro Square.

I will always love this movie. I saw it in the theatre when it first came out. I saw it last year in Berkeley. I had to see it under the stars!

I got to take a pic with the person with theee best costume. His Barf costume was awesome! It came as no surprise that he won the costume contest!

candy, candy, candy, i can't let you go.

I kinda sorta really don't have summer clothing.

Case in point?

This outfit that I wore on July 4th.

sweater: Old Navy.....tank top: Nordstrom Rack
skirt: Target.....leggings: Target
flip-flops: giftshop @ The Mirage, Las Vegas

I think the weather was really warm that day.

Also, check out my bangs. I love having fringe to hide my big forehead. One late night, boredom and a pair of sewing scissors met up, and this was the end-result.

everyday, i'm shuffling.

I haven't reviewed a 10-dollah wine for the longest time.

Truth is, I've been drinking wines that are over $20.00 a bottle. Some, I even purchased in Napa while winery-hopping with Dorena. Ooo, gourmet! Ooo, chi-chi!

Back in June, on a first-timer trip at the awesome-blossom Whole Foods Market Blossom Hill, I took notice of this $8.99 bottle of sulfite-free table wine called Our Daily Red.

Maybe my fine arts background and my religion inspired me to pick it up. Or maybe my cheap-skatedness did.

Either way, I'm glad I did. The stuff tastes good! It went down rather smoothly, and what do you know? I didn't have a sneezing fit while drinking it. Could I be allergic to sulfites?

Check out the back label:

and the sky was made of amethyst.

This is how I looked on Sunday, May 29:



sweater: Old Navy.....t-shirt: San Jose Sharks store
denim leggings: JC Penney.....socks: Target.....boots: Avenue

I wore this outfit to two movies, Bridesmaids and Thor.

I go to shows.

I went to three shows last weekend.

May 19 - Prince @ HP Pavilion, San Jose

May 21 - Kylie Minogue @ Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, San Francisco

May 23 - Rival Schools, Suedehead @ The Blank Club, San Jose

When a show puts me in a good mood, I buy merch. However, I didn't buy any merch at the Prince show because none of the shirts really caught my eye.

The swag:

Kylie Minogue

I bought this shirt because it has the tour dates on the back
and because I love how Kylie looks on it.




Suedehead

The fact that I can see the hanger through the shirt means I'm wearing a tanktop under it.
No biggie.

Rival Schools

I can't wait to get a hoody with this same logo. Love it.

good things are coming. don't be so selfless.

Monday, May 23 - Rachel and Shawn came down to see Rival Schools at The Blank Club in San Jose. Because I live so close to The Blank Club, I got to hang out with my dear friends.

We had such an awesome time! Dinner at Pizz'a Chicago and then rocking out to Rival Schools!

This is how I looked that night:


leather jacket: Wilsons.....sweater: H&M.....t-shirt: Gap
jeans: Steve & Barry's.....socks: Target.....sneakers: PacSun

Here's footage from that show.
My big noggin can sorta be seen -- I stood in front of the bassist.
