Marc by Marc Jacobs SHOES

these beauties were a birthday present {half} to myself. i just had to take the splurge. and then i just had to wear them everywhere until i got home; this included packing up my dorm room and carting the boxes away and putting them in my second story storage container. in retrospect, that may have not been the best decision, but i just couldn't find any other shoes that would go with any of my outfits. these are them on my last day in New York. i spent the day {after getting my boxes in said storage container} at central park reading in the grass and then at my favorite restaurant- Peace Food Café on 82nd and Amsterdam. a perfect end to the semester.

after these babes, nothing else feels quite right.

today i ran my first 10k

and everything hurts. a lot. i think i need to work on my running form.
but that's kinda besides the point. the Bolder Boulder {i was tweeting the names backwards all day, oops} has so many people in costumes. i saw graduates, bunnies, superheros {the capes seemed to be super popular}, slip 'n' slides, kegs {with free keg stands}, cowgirls, and so much more. it was ridiculous. i was too focused on my running {or lack thereof} to get photos, but i thought i'd at least try to describe the craziness. and brag about something that isn't too impressive, but i still did it.

just keep swimming

so since the freshman fifteen has turned into more {i'm not telling} and thank goodness one-pieces are "in" i am shopping for a super duper cool one{piece}.

i've been looking at wildfox because there the cheapest ones i've seen that are cool. my favorite right now is this one with a cat face, the same cat face, as it were, that is on an opening ceremony sweater i tried on over spring break {sadly they didn't have my size}.

should i splurge on it? whatdya think?

update: i bought it

i'm "home"

being in colorado is the most boring thing ever. i can barely scrape by at any of the restaurants in town {thank you moral eating} and walking up and down stairs is kinda taking the wind out of me. all i want to do is lay around and read and catch up on tv but i don't just want to lay around. and none of that makes sense. and the weather, like always, is incredibly bipolar. par exemple: this morning {while i was still asleep} it was sunny, then it SNOWED {IT'S FUCKING MAY- though this always happens, i don't know what i was expecting}, and how its overcast/sunny. i don't know what to do with myseld. maybe i'll paint, take photos, make some necklaces, hem a dress i've been wanting to hem.

AHHHHHHHH.

i did make this wonderful photo for a friend because she made one for my birthday. i miss my friends from school and the city {i'm homesick, co is no longer home to me...}.

and i really just should stop bitching and make the most of my time. i really should. and i will.

i'll lose the HUGE amount of weight i gained at school {or at least some of it, i can't physically lose it all} and make lots of art and read lots of books and drink lots of tea and visit with a few friends from high school. it will happen.

enjoy my love with alexa chung {and the wonderful isabel marant bekket sneakers via vogue.com}

i've been busy

so shoot me. it's now summer so maybe i'll come back to blogspot and away from tumblr. maybe. we'll see. i really just need to stop procrastinating packing, but a food coma is emerging from the fog. eating while packing is not advisable. be warned.

gah i'm going to miss new york city, and i'll only be home for 6 weeks.

i can make it.
