denim jacket. chai tea.

Yesterday I made two very important purchases. One for the fall weather, and one for the new apartment. A beautiful, studded denim jacket from Zara and a kettle to boil water! I'm thinking about bleaching the jacket, I like a lighter denim, and it'll definitely make it more 'my own.' We'll see!

I'm off to make chai tea in my new kettle. :)

The Legend of Zelda... Fashion!

I really, really love video games, but unfortunately, it's always hard to find video game merchandise that's flattering on females so when I found this top on Etsy, I had to have it. Good thing there's always Etsy and other fanmade merchandise.

My sister and I are going to buy some fabric paint to try and experiment with making some of our own stuff. I really want to get into some DIY projects with clothing, but working with my hands like that has never been my forte. Maybe my sister should just handle these things, (she's a seamstress)! Still, we're going to attempt to make some Final Fantasy and Elder Scrolls themed shirts... For girls!

MMVA Afterparty

Ready to party!

Last weekend I went to the Much Music Video Awards afterparty with work. I had a great time there getting to know some of my coworkers outside of the office and just enjoying the celebration for a very well-done award show.

The DJ set was spun by Far East Movement and LMFAO, and I had the privilege of meeting with and talking to some bands, and their staff. There were also some songwriters and local musicians present, and I really can't remember how many people I met!

I'm really glad that I don't come into the offices on Monday though, because I was out until 4:00 in the morning, and I was really, really happy to be able to sleep in.

I didn't take many photos at the party, because it's a nightclub and nothing really turned out well, but I do have a photo of the DJ booth here on my instagram and the view from the VIP booth, here.

Below I have some photos of what I wore, since... I feel like it's obligatory to post them. (click to make them bigger!) Everyone loved my manicure! I got so many questions about it, which made me pretty proud because I've never used charms or decals before. I posted a photo of it in my last entry.

Wearing my hair like this makes me want to shave it again!

Brash wedges, because I'm really short.
