No more sweaters, no more plaids, no more

shopping for me now. those were the only two things i could think of recently shopping for, haha, sad. no more gap sale rack, i lied. no more american apparel-or-equestrian-replacement leggings or ae replacement pants.

i just bought what may be the most magnificent clothing* i've bought since last spring. *not counting shoes, of which i got one perfect pair- tall, metallic, pewter docs -in december.

Despite all my looking for an exaggeratedly huge, chunky, long, body-encompassing, cable-knit, soft, good-quality, maybe faux-fur accented sweater -honestly, i was willing to compromise soo much, and still found nothing between 0-$80 -and comfortable, everyday boots of a low price, and tops to make my thighs appear less huge....

I came upon a beautiful, stylish, edgy, hot, flattering, PIECE

and it is of a price range i feel would shock a certain person, but would not anger said person! and within the realm of being perfectly fine to buy if i don't really buy much for the next 2-3 weeks..except a thermos for my tea, because that's what will allow me to stop buying stuff.

now here's how i found said item. i was on barneys.com sale, looking for the elusive SWETAER- ya that's right! im leavin u spelled like that, bitch! -and low, in the sale section, was this ENLIVENED PIECE OF FABRIC THAT BELONGS ON AND WITH ME FOREVERMORE:









and it was originally $400. and is still $280 on other websites.

here's another dvf one going for $500. i don't even find this that flattering or understand why it's $100 more



and it's navy

mine is going for $200 in white gold


that's really, really cute but i guess i'll be able to wear the black one constantly



a puffier, silk version came out spring09. i don't know if mine was the same season, but i doubt it bc mine is still selling, and $400 where the one below was $345.





mine is better, prettier, hotter, etc.

on net-a-porter there's 10+ black sleeveless jumpsuits.. all very expensive

One of my idols

, martin cohn, is a non-male kinda guy. i was thinking about/looking at him earlier today. just now, on a blog, the thumbnail of this



made me say, ohhh that person is a perfect picture in this street. wtf so rare. and i open it, and it's him!! so stunned! i had perused his tfs thread today, and no one had posted that..i guess it's my duty to now but, w/e.. god that picture is more perfect than any editorial. he is such, a complete, piece of art perfection.... IN WORDS THAT DON'T EXIST..

On a sad note...

Why is this $500 from 1,250? and small? i want this dress so badly for summer i can't even.. like i can't even...


Now comes a real-life dilemma.
(you pretend the fur for fall can be fake, because you aren't going to purchase it anyway so by DEMANDING it be fake fur in order for you to purchase it is perfectly fine and decent.)

i've seen a lot of big, chunky, knit lately and never decided i could/should wear it, but did contemplate the whole thing a little bit. (i don't usually want some style of item unless i've had a HOLY SHIT moment about it)


When this walked up the mj lane, i immediately wanted it, just it, on me.. just it and me! this grl who's a rare great-dresser in my class yesterday walked in w/a beige chunk sweater bigger than her on, and i immed flashed back. i even told her so which meanz bizniz. all fackin day today i've been looking for something that can fill into my void and help me out of this wantin feelin..
here's a great hq of it http://img59.imageshack.us/i/9673000710.jpg

many pieces in the collec followed suit and here they are in GLORYYY (imagine them in faux which IZ possible to be made, frenz)


it's the way he used fur to show off the pieces that was so, so good this season. something i don't ever really see. and proenza followed suit by doing so on wednesday..i hate when designers do this because i can't help but admire their cutting and pasting of it i just don't fucking get why customers don't demand fake fur..


ooooh my fack.. i can't possibly look at this (right pic) and not imagine myself in just this in a flat world that goes on for miles and miles of greenish-sage grass(es). in an instant of perfection in an unreal life that does exist when me and the dress do.


dyyyyyyiiing for this^




ah my god need to see the dress underneath (right pic)



and here's the other pieces from the collection that went bajacobzez in goodness (ignore any fur in these i H8 it)








if i had to justify my liking it, i would say i don't wear leather or eat animals or much dairy, so just liking this is about as bad as if i were like "omgz i want those suede balenciaga boots but they're too expensive," mkay?
