what i'm wearing † like a skyscraper

it's been so long! i was traveling a lot/feeling sick a lot/generally full of ennui and the first things i tend to abandon when i feel that way are the things i really love. unfortunately, those are also the things you really need, so.

so much color in this outfit, especially for me! the dress is a little bit too short to wear without something underneath it, so i paired it with the most neutral leggings i own. i like the yellow/green & pink combination -- may revisit that in the future.

what i'm wearing † think of me as programmable soda

i was in dire need of a haircut so i sat down with a pair of kitchen scissors and took a few inches off my hair. no regrets, and $20+ saved. if i was to have a style maxims, they'd be something like: 1) when in doubt, overdress. 2) diy before you pay to have someone else do it. 3) never ever sleep in makeup oh my gosh do not do it ever do you understand ok NEVERRRRR. 

it's the kind of hot outside right now where you can see the heat rising from the pavement. long days, lots of sunlight, sleep as a series of cat naps. time slows down and gives you all the reason you need to take long walks just because.

since we haven't figured out how to encapsulate that feeling, i'll just listen to "call me maybe" a lot so i can play it later in winter and trick myself into thinking that it's warm outside. i'm totally programmable like that.
