Target boy's blazer, American Apparel tee, Forever 21 skirt, Kinque.com (website mia) lace leggings (also worn here), vintage boots & sunglasses, Kate Spade bag, necklace - made by friend







A few things I noticed in these pics:
  • Mister has an odd habit of cutting off feet when he takes photos. I suppose it's better than cutting off heads (although, he's been know to do that, as well).
  • I need a trim. My hair's already grown a couple of inches and it's at the awkward stage where it's doing weird things.
  • This is the longest I've gone w/out darkening my hair and the closest I've gotten to my natural color in a long time.
  • Tried got2b's curling spray for the 1st time and it left my hair crunchy and limp. Not pretty.
Last week Mister and I both had meetings and errands to run in Koreatown and when we were done, we decided to treat ourselves to Korean bbq (when in Rome...). Unfortunately, I was too busy eating to get photos of the meat on the grill. But I can tell you it was delicious. (Btw, the restaurant is called Soot Bool Jib on 8th Street)

P.S. I just re-launched my Femme Rationale Shop...ch-ch-check it out. :)

Oooh I am seriously digging those lace tights and that bag. Accessories are so fun, aren't they? And Korean food? Augh yes, please. I miss it. GOOD Korean food, that is. Austin Korean food = crap.

Just from looking at the pics and BEFORE reading what you wrote, I was thinking "Your hair looks oh so fabulous!".

Food looks yummy.

Hungry,

You look amazing in that outfit. I can't believe the blazer is from the boy's department--it fits you so well!

Aleutie said...

This stuff lookd delicious! He's probably tall that's why he cut off legs - my hubby has the same problem.

i'm glad to see you again !

Vanessa said...

Love your tights! And that Korean food looks great-- I've never had Korean food before. The soup kinda looks like a Vietnamese soup I got a couple times. I couldn't tell you the name of it, though: I always go out to the restaurant with one of my Vietnamese friends, and he orders for me. I'm a little pathetic, I know.

WendyB said...

Oh no! Crunch and limp is no good.

TheBeautyFile said...

I personally think you look gorgeous, but for non-crunchy curls try all Fekkai wavy hair products....at Sephora...they're unreal.

What kind of camera do you use?
