My masterpiece- Room 303

Like my room? You'd better, 'cause I spent nearly two weeks getting it to be perfect. It's cozy (code for small, but welcoming) and people love spending time in it.

Why is my room featured on my fashion blog? I've planned this for days more than any outfit and it also represents my sense of style.

Back to school, end of summer lameness

Mint blazer: Thrifted at Tzedek

Undershirt: J Crew

Shorts: Forever 21

Shoes: BDG

I am back at school now and have loads of amazing wardrobe pictures to share. Promise I won't abandon this blog again, unless I have good reasons, like I did during the summer (i.e. fellowship application, hot boy, lots of great comics from the public library, biking).

Turqoise formal

I bought this dress in Once, at a Hippies-R-Us. Well, not really, but it did sell a lot of unflattering peasant shirts. The woman who sold me the dress was nice, but very dumb. She praised the dress, but was shocked that people in the United States speak English. She also thought I was a native Spanish speaker, from Columbia, until I told her otherwise. She asked me ridiculous questions, unashamed by her lack of knowledge- if I was scared of flying on planes, if I had a boyfriend, etc. But I guess it doesn't take much brains to help someone pick out a beautiful dress.

And my new scarf!

I bought this baby in Salta, during a visit to the small town of Purmamarca. It's not as soft or versatile as my other scarf, but it's colorful!

RIP: Scarf

Last photo with scarf

Last week, I lost a dear friend: my scarf. It passed away on the 9th of July in La Chacarita Cemetery around 6pm. Probably taken by ghosts. Lived a long life, keeping me warm and accompanying me on trips throughout the United States, South Africa, Argentina and Uruguay. No services will be held.

Sunny Salta

Shirt: Zara
Cardigan: Forever 21
Pants: Guess
Shoes: Clona

Went to Salta (Northern Argentina) this past week. The colorful mountains, the salt flats (seen in these pictures), and the quaint little villages make Salta one of the most beautiful and interesting regions in the country. If you have a chance, go. Also, they have great handicrafts. Post to come.

Winter Coat

Coat: vintage

Dress: vintage

It had gotten really nice in Buenos Aires in the last few days, but today it started to hail! Chunks of ice the size of quarters fell from the sky. I was at the Feria de Mataderos where I bought a llama hair wrap. It was probably way overpriced, but is so warm and beautiful. Pictures to come.
