I found this kick ass image online...I love the colors:)

The Raveonettes

My friends and I saw the Raveonettes last week! They played at The Double Door, which always brings in a few crazies, but is usually always fun. The lead singer is apparently into our Friend Laura Watson, who I am sad to see go off to LA. Dad-socks aka, my fave also came along. It was a fun group, all of which truly appriciated the music. I thought the show kicked ass. I had seen them once before, a long time ago when I lived in LA...I lovd them then, and love them now. I think their sound is totally unique. I could listen to each album in full, I really don't have the attention spand for that with most other bands. I highly reccomend them live!

Debonair Social Club..two thumbs down

After a long night of drinking, my friends and I decided to go to Debonair Social Club. This is the place all the under-age Chicago, herion chic bambinos go to feel like a NYC club kid. This was my third time going. One of the three have been good, but overall it's not my fave. I can understand why people would like there, I just rather something more hubmle..it was way too much of a scene.

What the DOC ordered

Doc Martens are hands down, the most nostalgic shoes I can think of. They bring me back to my early adolecent, rebelious phase in life when I would die my hiar pink, and smoke New Ports behind the 711.

I'll never forget my first pair, I saved my babysitting money for three months. They were red t-strap mary janes "air wair", so kick ass!

The pair below always has been, and always will be my fave. Floral is so rad right now too, I got these at the Salvation Army in perfect condition..too small:( eBay they go, to help fund my teeth. Like the Betsey's, I hope they find a happy home.



My Mom caught to the fact that I decided to jump back on the Doc wagon, she bought me these for xmas..love you mom:)

24

I turned 24 on the 4th. My actual bday was really nice! I was watching my aunts kids in the burbs, so my parents, brothers and sister and some of my extended family came over. We got about 10 pizzas from Girodonos and a Portillo's chocolate cake..so good. We all just sat around and told storiers. It's always nice to share your birthday with family.

My party was on Saturday, my good friend Mary and I did a combined party. We had all of our girl friends over to my place, then met some other friends out at the Burlington. Burlington was packed in the worst way, but overall it was a pretty fun night.

My younger, and under-aged sister came out, she was a total riot. Hands down the funniest person I know. She and all my friends got along really well. It was a fun time:)

I once read that during a recession lipstick sales increaset by 50%. Well, we are enterning a recession, and with in the past two months I have purchased two new lip colors. My new find has become my new fave! It's called Morange by MAC. Karyn also helped me with this one. This is the most vibrant lipstick I have ever worn..I totally dig it.

French Pumps

I adore these shoes, french pumps: Marc Jacobs collection
so pretty!

Cameo Kick

I love <3 Cameos right now! I just wish I had more. Silhouettes in general are beautiful. I have an arrangement of empty frames on the living room wall, and recently filled them with different silhouettes. The color palette matches the room, but I cut the silhouettes from a faux wood grain contact paper! It looks cute:) Now I need to find a way to get my hands on some damn cameos.
