Imma update you!!!!

I'm leaving for school tomorrow, and I am so happy to say that I'm slightly more excited than nervous!!
I was so worried that with my short summer I wasn't going to get to see some of my bestest friends and visit some cool places that I've always taken for granted, like the MET, but I did!


Since it is a new school year, I'm thinking a few changes!
-cool pics from a Lower East Side street fashion show
-secrets reveal in "dear diary"
-very.sexy--look for the first post really soon
-college life
-more piccs
-and although black is my favorite color, a new more colorful layout!

so yea.

Superheroes

I finally got a chance to see the SUPERHEROES exhibit at the Met last Monday.
Yes, the museum is closed to the public on Mondays, but I have a friend, Vlad, who works there and he was nice enough to take me and to give me a tour of the first floor and the roof.
The exhibit is amazing, and they had actual costumes such as Linda Carter's Wonder Woman, Christian Bale's Batman, Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man, Michelle Pfeiffer's Cat Woman, Tobey Maguire's Spider man and even the little bits in Rebecca Romjin's Mystique.
I wish I could take pictures because the designers , including Jean Paul Gautier, Moschino, and Alexander Mcqueen did an awesome job. The details of every costume is just fantastic.
If you live in the NYC area, I recommend seeing it and many other exhibits, although my friend told me every exhibit is always crowded.
and I got to use the exit that celebreties exit in...
so yea.
Speaking of the Met, I'm so excited for Gossip Girl to return!

All Dressed Up Girls

Studying for AP Euro + Annie Get Your Gun rehearsals until 9PM+ reading both 1984 and Light in August+ too much time on AIM= reason for lack of postings

On Wednesday, I woke up and decided to wear a dress to school, something I don't think I've ever did in all my four year of HS. I layered my blue bubble dress from American Rag on a black tee, and dressed it down with the bluebird printed Keds . (no pic, camera still broke)
I got comments like, "Daphney wearing a dress to school?", "pretty dress", and " dressing for a boy".
I thought, I don't dress for boys. I would never dress for boys unless that boy was Philip Lim, Andre Leon Talley or any other male in the fashion industry.
The point is, I dress for me because if I look in the mirror and don't like the way I look, I WILL change my outfit over and over again. If anything I'd dress for other girls-they're probably the ones who actually notices stuff like your accessories looking wrong with your dress.

Speaking of dresses, with the exception of Christina Ricci's dress (and very few others) how boring were the dresses at the Met's costume ball?


This Givenchy dress is PERFECT, and the fact that she stayed true to the theme, MORE PERFECT. I want to buy it and frame it.

but yea.
I have yet to buy my prom dress.
