Girl Panic!

I love this video! It`s so stylized and glamourously edgy.

Duran Duran were one of the first bands to start using models in their music videos and their newest single features the Supers! This is rock and roll.

Need more curls.. (The first words that came to mind when I started reviewing these photos) Please forgive my napped-on hair. I snapped these photos behind the bar on the main floor of my house, look at me trying to be sexy! I completely forgot all of my faux-model skills but all together I think this look is a little bit Marilyn Monroe, a little bit Jessica Rabbit and a little bit Dita Von Teese maybe?

This is what I wore for 2011's year end festivities and to be honest, the shoes cost more than the entire outfit. You must be thinking "that's quite impossible, she's got her fur on!" but I bought it secondhand for a measly $35. I know right!? What I love about this stole is that it actally has structured shoulders and it's a great length. Don't you think it makes the whole outfit look so much more lavish?

Now while my shoes were one hundred, I purchased them way back in September. They are Guess and this is the first time I've actually worn them. The dress is totally 80's with its giant shoulder pads and even though it has sleeves, I think the sweetheart neckline brings all the sex appeal. It was also a thrift find and with the way it fits me, you can imagine how stoked I was to see a ten dollar price tag. TEN DOLLARS!!! amazing.

So. What did you wear? 

Here are my resolutions for the new year:

1: Actually go on a trip (my first ever trip). Finally leave the country and go have some fun somewhere.

2: Find a better paying job. Enough retail, I gotta find a better way to support my habits.
3: Get active. I have a closet full of beautiful clothing that don't fit me anymore, what a waste..
4: Try more trends. I make inspo boards on Pinterest based on runway, now I gotta take it a step further.

5: Get some really good content going on this blog and build a readership.

I'm usually a total Grinch from November 15th to December 28th but the holidays were very different for me this year. I was completely broke even though I worked 3 jobs. I was able to relax and keep to myself. My ears did not bleed from all of the awful renditions of Santa Baby playing in the malls. And it was overall less stressful. Christmas came and went with absolutely no fuss. And even though I didn't really have an extravagant wishlist (or a wishlist at all) I was pleasantly suprised with all the wonderful goodies I received from friends and family.
