Shiny Stars






Fall means Thanksgiving, which makes me think of Charlie Brown. I love my new shoes. I think Charlie Brown would, too.

H&M vest. Elizabeth & James t-shirt. Cheap Monday Skinny jeans. Kimchi Blue brogues.




+++ I got this blog award from
drink tea be content,
one of my lovely followers ♥
its such a lovely blog award, thank you! :)
*I tag any one of you wanting to play, lovers!*

  1. I always develop a crush on guys who can either make me smile, or have really short hair. Some examples? Adam Brody (Seth Cohen), Christian Bale and Brendan Fraser.
  2. Sunbelt cereal is my new favorite "go-to" snack, I always have to have a "go-to" snack around, another is Chex Cheddar Mix.. yum!
  3. Thanks to Knightcat I have gotten re-hooked onto My So Called Life. It's all on Hulu now and all for free. Angela Chase & Jordan Catalano* = FOREVER. sigh.. (*I feel like Jordan Catalano is the most beautiful boy on Earth. The way he slowly let his thoughts sink in and simmer before even uttering a word.)
  4. Lately, I find myself constantly checking for updates on these photo blogs: FashionStorm, CartoonStyles, fashiongonerogue and Fashion-Canvas.
  5. The first thing I want when I wake up... is to be alone. I like the quiet.
  6. Chinese restaurants are always so cozy and I find myself most comfortable in them.
  7. Heard a delicious rumor that H&M is planning to open up shop in North Carolina. YAYYYYYYY! Miami never had one...

OMG you've got the longest hair ever. And it's so gorgeous!

wow!

cool outfit!

Denise said...

ps,

did you just say Brendan? i fell in love with him more than a decade ago, and i still love him now. It's just so nice to see him again, even for a little while in G.I Goe.

Love this post. The pictures are fabulous, and I feel instantly connected to anyone who loves Charlie Brown. =)

"My So Called Life" was one of my faves back in the day. I still think Claire Danes is wonderful. I also really loved "Felicity." I can't help but still be in love with old favorites. =)

It's true, H&M is opening at Crabtree Valley Mall.
I think it's rather unfortunate, seeing as I always went there when I went to get my brother from school, but now everyone is going to have my clothes :(

Carolyn-- said...

I love your shoes! i've been considering getting them for a while and they are so beautiful!

Lissa said...

If they gave out awards for blogs with the best music you'd definitely win. I find myself charge-charge-charging away on my itunes account every time I visit your blog, but it's a good thing, since my ipod was getting sad and lonely before Fashion Chalet. ;)

Oh and YES the shoes also make me credit-card hungry hahha.

Cat! x

hana said...

Angela Chase was so precocious, smart, thoughtful and a great analyzer. everything before her time. Her thoughts narrating are so sublime. I miss that show. Thank you for the Hulu link.

And happy Fall to you. Beautiful weather and leaves and hair. :)

Isabelle said...

The new shoes are brilliant! I am really feeling ribbons right and working on a post of shoes with ribbons. They're so romantic, like if you wear them something slightly fairytalish might happen.

Aww, love the Charlie Brown shoes, too! And love the way you did this post, with the tape and the kind of vintage/polaroid colours.. you're really rocking the North Carolina/autumn look, just when I thought you were so quintessentially Miami!

Thanks also for sourcing other great blogs. Was just looking at fashion storm and to answer your question, St. Martins (in London) is the big art/fashion college. It's most British designer's alma mata. xx
