NO FURNITURE SO CHARMING AS BOOKS


I used to love to read.
I'm not sure exactly when it was that I fell out of love with it,
but I know it definitely had to do with me being in college.
Being a Creative Writing major,
both reading and writing are inevitable and inescapable....
and the fact that I want to write for a living as a fashion journalist someday allows me to predict that much of my future will be mostly spent with my head buried within a book or magazine.
Since I've been in school, reading has became such a drag.
There are sooooo many amazing stories out there,
yet due to having professors who are obsessed with the world's most uninteresting authors, lol 
I've been in a reading rut...
stuck with the boring, the abstract, the overly theoretical, and the non-captivating.

My delay in posting lately has largely stemmed from the fact that I have craploads of reading to tackle.
Thank God the materials spark some part of my interest, 
or else my money spent on Amazon to buy the books would be a total waste.
I don't think I'll actually be able to indulge in something of my choice until I graduate...
since most of my free time is spent dissecting class materials.
But until then,
I'll just have to deal.

FANCY SCHMANCY


A few weeks ago, Natashia from She'sFancy.com approached me to be part of an mini editorial feature!
Despite her cold and the even colder weather, we duked it out and had an amazing shoot!
Be sure to peep the article! :)

NO PARKING



Wearing Denim Levi's jacket, DIY vintage floral top, Black & white striped tank:: H&M, 
Maroon cargo pants:: Forever 21, Brown combat boots:: Forever 21



Things are looking quite promising for my online store! :)
After much consideration, I decided I'm probably going to go with Ebay as the selling platform...
but depending on my progress, I might switch to BigCartel.
We'll see...

This week is already ridiculous,
and it's only MONDAY!
As far as school goes, I have tons of reading to do...
a lot of which I'm already behind and it's only the second week of school.
For one of my classes on Ethnic Politics, my professor wants us to read one 
of the three books he's assigned for us by this Thursday.
I wouldn't have much of a problem with this if I didn't have four other classes to keep up with...
plus the fact that I have A LIFE! lol
But hey, I guess that's the beauty of a multi-tasker:
making it work.

Since we're on the subject of my college life,
I found it disgustingly hilarious that in my Religious Studies class today,
my professor farted.....
TWICE!
mid lecture. lmbo!
I tried soooooo hard not to laugh, 
and yet the majority of my other classmates continued to pay attention
nonchalantly, as if the woman didn't just let one loose!
The only person whose face seemed to share my disbelief 
was one of the students who had just added the class.
He happened to be sitting right next to my professor,
and contained himself while putting his head down. lol
I waited for her to at least say "Excuse me,"
or even lie and say it was her shoe or the whiteboard marker....
but she just continued rambling on like her gassy mishap was non-existent.
What a way to start off the week. lol

THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH


While I'm sure most people spent New Years Day sleeping in 
or recovering from the previous night's hangover, I was at Disneyland! lol
It's been about a year since I've last made my way to Mickey and Minnie's humble abode....
and before that, not since my high school grad night back in '07.
My sisters and I had park hopper passes, courtesy of my grandma's generous Christmas spirit.
And after tackling Disney's California Adventure {referenced as DCA by some visitors we ran into},
we spent the remainder of the day at Disneyland.
We rode as many rides as possible, watched the Christmas parade, 
& seen Captain EO {which I hadn't seen since I was a kid!} 
I did grow to become annoyed by all of the untamed kids 
that were running all over the place like headless chickens,
and have a newfound appreciation for kiddie leashes. lol
Though I'm confident I won't have to use them for my {future} kids, 
I think they are an excellent tool for everyone else's. hahah
But aside from the menacing tiny tots,
we had a blast. :)

THE ICING ON THE CAKE




Tom Ford's S/S 2011 collection nailed it right on the money.
And I'm loving the fact that there are so many cameos of some of fashion's most gorgeous gals...
Not to mention Tom Ford, in all of his dapperness. ;)

THEY TRIED TO MAKE ME GO TO REHAB


Hi.
My name is Kameron, and I'm a shopaholic. lol

I need to stop shopping.
Seriously.
I know a closet full of clothes/shoes/accessories is expected
 for most blogging fashionistas to have,
but unlike many of them,
I'm not down with being in debt because of my fashion obsessions.

A chill pill is definitely much needed when it comes to my spending.
And because of the fact that I don't have daddy's credit cards 
{or anyone else's money for that matter} to fall back on,
I have to be smart about this shopping biz.
Paying my rent, bills, and car insurance are amongst my many expenses....
oh, and food. lol
Homelessness is NOT an option, regardless of how chic of a bum I would be. lol
Plus, it's too friggin' cold!
And with me trying to go to London for grad school next fall,
I need to clench tight every penny I've got!

When {not if} I go to London, it's going to suck to have to ship all of my stuff!
So I need to do a whole lotta downsizing in the meantime.
As far as clothing goes, I'm dunzo.
But when it comes to shoes, I can't call it completely quits until I get my paws on
some Jeffrey Campbell kicks that I've been drooling over...{Lita's preferably.}
THEN I'll be done. lol
