*__*
My mother has closets FULL of clothes , like 80s clothes and all her stuff from then up and she wants to give it ALL away and start over . I only got the top of her small closet and the middle part of the rack . this closet is 9 feet long and has clothes all the way down . She has over 237 pairs of shoes last tie we counted them in the attic and she has two whole closets full and some in the basement . it`s crazy she has more clothes than me, my brother and father all put together . i WISH i had this many clothes , i could have a different outfit EVERYDAY for about to years . she tries to say most are dresses and suits but if i had tht many vintage suits and shit . . . i would be a fashion mogul on lookbook ..
Book of Hearts .
This is my Summer 2010 book i made out of boredum one day . i like it , and it`s on my dresser at all times .
4 Things
FIRST , if i didn`t have music . . i would be dead somewhere after a nice suicide because when people piss me off or i`m sad or even happy , Music uplifts the soul and i listen to music when i do everything , i mean EVERYTHING ! some of my favorite music now , if i had to pick 3 (outside of Kings of Leon) would be ; Prince , Thom Yorke and La Roux . i like to dance so what did you expect ?
God now tht I have a phone after a LONG ass year without one , it`s GREAT . i don`t have to call people as much , I can just text someone and get answers and crap . I don`t have to lug around my big ass camera if i wanna have it for some inspirational shots to fuel my pictorials or writing in my notebooks i keep . it has a good camera and i can tweet MOBILE , cause i love tweeting actually and i can do it on the go .g
Photography is another big aspect of my life because you can ultimately catch something how you see it in your eyes . and i also use it for music , if i see something tht buts a beat in my heart i photograph it and i keep it to finish the song later or sometimes i see a print i like and i wanna get some pants or a shirt like it ? i take a picture of it and see if i can find the print somewhere else . i see it as a career but i also see it as a passtime and i work all day everyday .
Magazines and Fashion go into one because i get five magazines a month ; GQ , RollingStones (every two weeks) , Details , Complex and Nylon w/ the occasional Spin . But it keeps me up on grooming tips to make it easier and some fashion trends and ways to style up . also , it feeds me into what they have to say about celebs , movies and tv shows - even books . i read one magazine at least four times before i cut it up and take pictures and make crap cause i do . thts my next post !
Sex Lies and Rihanna .
you cannot tell me she is NOT the best in the world right now .. God . Alright , Nicki Minaj is gorgeous and shit , BUT her wildly colored hair is going nuts . Beyonce losing it . and who else can you really throw at Rihanna at least ? cause i know there are many beautiful women in the world , but not as bad as my godess .
Asos .
a blog i recently read called Rated Raygo had a post about this website in hte UK and i actually found some nice stuff and if i had a FCKING job i could buy some of it , but my mom has a credit card w/ MY name on it , because i need to build credit , but i want it . and it only has a $500 limit so i can`t do TOOOOO much damage . so i need to ask about it .
Huarache .
i have this shoe fetish a little (sounds gay) but i love shoes , and if i could just wear shoes i would . and i want some sandals or sondal like shoes for the rest of the summer and when im on Vaycay and like these are awesome and i`m in love . but the top ones are my favorite . they had some of these at UO last year by Jeffery Campbell and i didn`t like them then and i wish i wouldve gottne them cause they were on a MAJOR sale for like $30 . -___- and i let it pass me by . but i`m about to go ahead and order some when my father returns home .
Girls .
This is another band i found in Spin Mag . They are good , the lead singer had a raspy 3 am kinda voice and it mixes as a opposite with his acoustic songs . They are mostly sad songs , but i mean i love this song it hits home because i feel like this sometimes , i really do . But it`s hard to kind find them on Google because the name Girls is so typical .
La Roux
she was in one of my music magazines and i was like okay , she looks like a good music artist cause she had this style about herself , and i had already heard BulletProof and now i like I`m Not Your Toy . Check her out ! HERE . For Free Downloads and Tour Dates .
Prince Roger Nelson
Well , last nite at the BET Awards he received his lifetime achievement award . i remember when i was younger i used to ridicule him cause he was androgynous and wore heels and kinda screamed a bit . But since i`ve gotten older , i see how he chnaged music and fashion in more ways than one , so i already been a Prince fan , because my mom is a SUPER fan , and went like 80 of his concerts and cried EVERY time . But some of his risks are good and worked out in his favor and he really inspired me to be myself more and wear what i want to despite when they might have to say and now i`m 18 i can do what i want ! but i mean my parents don`t really get my fashion sense sometimes , but i mean my dad is more open to it , my mom hates it . -___-
Here are two of my favoite Prince Songs .
More Ink .
Hand Tattoos are a little over rated and not my style but i still have one i would get ; a small cross on my hand by the thumb , i think it`s original and cool actually . this ink will come when i move out of town , parents think it`s a bad idea and my dad works at the tattoo shop i go to . sooooo , i`m SOL . until i go somewhere else . but my dad is adding his flames and water to complete his two WHOLE arm sleeves ! i`ll add pics later .
Musical .
well , my music taste and styles have changed for the better . i`m more into indie and alternative music now . so to go in hand with that comes a acoustic guitar . I was pawn surfing one day and i came across this beauty , an orange wood soulmate . 0_0 i was in awe . But my father said i have to find a valid teacher before i get it , so he knows i`m serious unlike i was w/ my keyboard and the other instruments i play . But i`m 18 so i know i`m ready and serious , so i`m getting it , SOOON i think i found the right guy to do it .
Hair .
No , can tell but i really like my hair when it`s higher on the top and a train of hair in the back . and i thought i liked it when it was really low . i don`t because i have to retrain my hair everytime . =| it`s bullshit . BUT i`m growing my hair out this time because i mean , why not . all models go through a transition phase so i`m getting my mullet back , this upcoming saturday or next because i miss how it looked on my head . so thts another look update .
Fotos .
since i am a photographer , i have a need for a camera w/ a high quality resolution and a good lens . i have my Cannon Digital Rebel as a first hand man here and i have my phone`s RAPH800 i has a nice lens for a phone . i took a picture of my favorite denim jeans with it in the car . it came out so nicely i have to build a whole photoshoot around denim so i can feature it in there .
Jeans : Gap Jeans 30x30 .
Phone .
this is my phone my HTC Touch Pro , and we are best friends . BUT i will be trading him in this year for an iPhone or a Blackberry . . . What team to join ?My Bestfriend .

Ink .
"My Next Piece"i love tattoos . like i`m going to be covered ( well not all the way , thts a little HOOD ) but i mean , i`ll have to 3/4 sleeves by the time i`m 20 years old . i have three ( lame ) tattoos already , i have a sparrow on the right side of my chest , some arabic in the middle tht says "Shining Star" and -_- my name on my left arm . . . i was only 14 when i got it , don`t judge me . But this here above is going on my upper left arm and leading to my back . And on the back of neck i`m getting a small bat , it`s cool . So Look For Posts Soon on My Ink Updates .
Lost Boys
So as we all know i have this thing for Fashion and this thing for Photography . And since im going off to Nylon this fall , i will have models at my disposal i hope , or i can convince them to let me shoot them . that doesn't sound creepy does it ?
But i watched the movie "The Lost Boys" and got a feel for the story , personality and the plot and i made me think i could do a more modern yet old and classy like this vampire photoshoot minus the fangs and it would be titled the Lost Boys as well . So i`m hoping i can do this really soon , cause it seems like fun or i can do for an editorial as a intern in the magazine . Or just post it here .
An Yes i`m doing the classical pose of the girl on his shoulder . Don`t Judge Me .
