absurdly peculiar

I have officially moved back to Los Angeles while I wait for my working visa. This also means I do not have as much closet room as I used to and has prompted me to clean out my closet. As a result, I decided to sell a good chunk of my clothes to create more room in the place I am currently living in and have also decided it would also be a great way to earn some money while I am waiting for that visa. Getting letters about the loans I will be having to pay back in approximately 3 months has made my very weary about spending money and has got me thinking about how to make some. So please check out the Moving Away Sale  link on the side below the picture of me. I will try posting pictures of what these clothes look like on an actual person on this main page.

I was on the materialgirlsblog.com site and I love how this space was decorated. It is simple and even though black and white are the main colors it does not look boring at all.

I am in love with these two pieces from H&M's sustainable clothes collection. They are both priced at $34.95. 

So this has to have been the craziest quarter ever, but in less than 5 days I will be graduating. So when I do graduate, I've decided that since I will be getting my Master's and you don't get a special title in front of your name... I demand that I be referred to as Master Young. How great would that be? I think I deserve it, especially for all that stress I've been through... of course I am just joking, but I can dream can't I? Anyways, I was recently on the GAP website. I  remember many years ago, everytime I would walk in the store I would love the outfits on the mannequins. Then a few years passed and I'd walk into their stores and I wouldn't like anything. BUT their designs have seemed to have greatly improved. Take a look: Seems like the perfect outfits for Fall!

I was really inspired to make something out of safety pins after the Safety First post, so I decided to make earrings. I went all out and bought some gold color wire, hooks for the earrings, a bunch of safety pins and all the tools required. After figuring out how exactly I was going to connect everything for the first earring.. the 2nd pair took me no time at all. I wonder if I could legitimately add jewelry maker to my resume now. Haha, I only kid.

This weekend I went to see Saint Motel play at the Bootleg Theater. They are an indie-pop band with catchy beats and were pretty awesome to listen to live. You can really feel the energy of the band when seeing them in person. You should check them out here: Saint Motel . My favorite songs are  Butch and Dear Dictator !

Even though the weather has been really dreary lately... I'm excited for Fall. I think I've been exposed to the strong rays of the sun too much this summer due to my 29 day trip to Europe, so I welcome this weather with open arms. My favorite colors for Fall this season can be found in the form of OPI nail polishes: This season I'm loving grays, taupes, nude pinks, and dark reds.
