absurdly peculiar

I have been and will be busy with phone interviews, turning in apps, and ebaying lately.. but I guess it is better than not being busy at all! While procrastinating, I saw this article on the NY Times Fashion and Style Section entitled Brothers at the Wrist . The article claims that after Kanye's performance at last years Coachella music festival, fashion and music blogs referred to these bohemian wrist tangles as "Kanye Bracelets." Kanye at Coachella 2011 As a result, there has been a surge of sales in these types of bracelets. I was totally unaware that they have been deemed as so and I first noticed a bracelet trend among DIY blogs like Honestly WTF , but more about stacking different types of bracelets (not solely "bohemian wrist tangles"/ "kanye bracelets"), which inspired me to create my own DIY bracelet . Honestly WTF I had no idea that this bracelet trend had become/has been popular among men. According to the article, there are sighting...

I was looking up images on Google because I was thinking of using safety pins for this wall art idea I had and then I came across this picture:  Chioma Nnadi's (Vogue Fashion writer) wearing a Vena Cava Necklace And this other one: Vena Cava I am SO thinking about making one of these.

I've been wanting to make this MARNI Necklace for a while. The only way I could think of making this for as little money as possible was using polymer clay. So I went to JoAnn Fabric's and picked up all of my supplies ( Thanks for the giftcard NT!). Things You'll Need:   polymer clay, ribbon, jewelry wire, scissors, jewelry wire pliers/cutters, glue, an oven

I decided the apartment needed new wall art that didn't cost me much money. So I headed to Home Depot and picked up a bunch of paint chips. I seriously thought I needed to be stealthy because I was taking around 6 chips of the same color, but now that I think about it... I doubt anyone cares I am taking too many free samples. And here is my finished piece: Things You Will Need To Do This Yourself: posterboard (for the background/the thing you will paste the chips on), glue (i used tacky glue), scissors, a ruler, a pencil, and lots and lots of paint chips (found at Home Depot, Loews, etc.), a frame This project cost me zero dollars, since everything I needed was either free or I already had it. So I would definitely want to make another one to go with the one I just made. Here are some other paint chip diy art projects that I would like to try: How About Orange Home and Garden Hopefully, I get it done soon. Maybe after I turn in anothe...

So I ended up going to Target at 8am on a Sunday just so I could "look" at the Jason Wu collection. The only thing is... there is no such thing as "just looking" when the doors open. You basically see a bunch of ladies speed walking to the collection and just taking things from the rack. So of course, you join into this orderly mob like mentality and just start taking things off the rack as well. You don't really think, hmmm... would I wear this? Nope, there is no time. So instead of just looking , I ended up taking home a couple pieces (this does not include the items I ordered online because they were not sold in the stores) that were never on my list of things to get. Then a couple hours later... guilt sets in. Seriously, what have I done? This is the point where you really think about how much you spent and I seriously blame it on the orderly mob.  I decided I am only keeping 2 things and the rest needs to make its way back to Target. I need to promise ...
