Summer!

Summer is here! My last day of school was today, and I am excited! It still hasn't totally set it that I won't have to go back to school for a while, but I'm sure It will settle in soon.
Lately a certain look has been popping up in my head, and I very much hope I could possibly find something like it.

THE LOOK:
Cardigan, with floral dress, awesome sandals, and an over the shoulder bag.

The floral dresses:

I found this on ebay.

An Anna Sui Ruffle Dress. Not the best floral, but it still fits into the picture in my mind.


This is probably my most favorite floral dress, It's Stella McCartney. I'm in love!

A different kind of floral, but still, nice. Moschino Cheap & Chic

This is the Elizabeth and James "Petunia Dress." If I'm not mistaken this is the the line from Marky-Kate and Ashley Olsen. I've seen some of their pieces, and they're really quite nice, like this dress, especially the back of the dress (below).






Free People "Pretty Poppies" dress, and I agree, very pretty.

Another favorite of mine, this Kimichi and Blue "No Direction Home" dress. It also comes in a pale color, but I love the bold colors on this one, it looks so classic. Something I would have seen at a wedding.

The Sandals:
Alberta Feretti

Bally

A pair from topshop, that I don't believe they carry anymore, bummer.

And of coarse the gladiator sandals, beyond gladiator sandals. Ohh, how beautiful they are, one can only dream!

I really like this pair, and they really fit the name, the "Everyday Gladiator." They seam versatile enough to wear everyday.

I also love these, because of the leathery, authentic look they have, they're awesome. "Sunset Hurache Sandal"

The Cardigans:
I'm just choosing some I like, not that will necessarily be right for the dresses above, though I’m sure some will be.

I didn't know Shopbop had their own line, but this is a piece from their.


A Vince cardigan.

This is the Simply Vera line Vera Wang did for Kohls

Also the same line and same cardigan, but I love this color so I had to post it.

The later days cardigan.

The once and for all cardigan.

Basic long cardigan.

American Apparel will always have great cardigans, in any color you can imagine.

The bag:
This one is great if only it wasn't $225



On another note:
Saturday Night Live has been so funny for the past 3 weeks! Last week was the season final and it was with Jim Carrel.

Digital Short


And the week before that was Shia LaBeouf







Oh SNL makes me laugh.

And for the last note, a film: THE G0-GETTER
I usually go to the movies page on Yahoo and watch new trailers and today I saw the trailer of "The Go-Getter."



As for a story line, I have no idea. I don't even know what to think of it. But I want to see it anyways.

This is my first post of summer, and it feels great. Now that I have more time I can post more often, and of course that leaves more time for thrifting (I've just now realized that we bloggers have made thrifting a verb, impressive the power we have!), and I will defiantly keep you updated on my finds!

Until next time, have a great summer bloggers!

The Wackness

I haven't posted about an independent film in a while, but I have finally seen previews for one that looks WAY good.



The movies is called "THE WACKNESS."
I don't know much about it, except that it's based around a teenage drug dealer, and a therapist along with his daughter.
The film stars some pretty familiar faces.

Josh Peck

Who you'll remember from Nickelodeon and a favorite of mine, Mean Creak.

Ben Kingsley

Famous name, who's been in many films including "House of Sand and Fog"

Olivia Thirlby

The girl who played Juno McGuff's best friend in the recent "Juno."

Method Man

I've never heard of this guy, but from the photos I saw of him, he seems to be some sort of rapper.

Mary-Kate Olsen

And no doubt we all know who this, though I'm not exactly sure how big her part in the movie is.

I heard about Wackness from a friend, and I also am way interested because Josh Peck, who turned out way better looking than anyone would have thought, is in it, and the title is neat, though I know the whole "don't judge a book by it's cover," I think it looks good. The trailer is below.



I can't wait until I see it!

Oh how time flies

Since Finals are nearing closer and closer this post will be short and brief, but I felt the need for it today.


Because of all the work I have to do I don't get a chance to watch very much TV, unless it's Saturday Night Live. But good thing I have a close friend of mine who keeps me informed on all I need to know. Just the other day, she told me of an indie film coming to theaters (actually it opened the 5th). JUNO, is the name of the film, and after seeing the trailer I fell in a deep, deep love.




juno



And if you're wondering what the very raw sounding song in the trailer was, you were listening to "Anyone Else But You" by the Moldy Peaches.

And for the last bit of this post before I am off to conquer my work is a pair of boots that I have been eyeing for quite a while





I can picture my self in these boots. Oh, how I lust over them. But they a bit on the pricey side,not too much, just a little, but just enought that these boots will have to wait.

Well its goodbye to me until after finals, but not before one big announcement: GUESS WHAT BLOGGER IS OFFICIALLY PROTECTED AGAINST OVARIAN CANCER?
Me! That's right I've gotten my gardasil shots, and am now worry free about ovarian cancer (not that I was ever worried about it). Just thought I would add this for some laughs.
