doll face, darling

C'est moi! A m o d e l . I recently posed in a photoshoot as a porcelain doll. It was an amazing experience, and so much fun! I love all things creepy; anything to do with the supernatural. Not that I really believe in any of that, but I love the feeling it gives me. Especially in art. When the photographer told me the concept of the shoot I was ecstatic. An all white background, single white chair, a porcelain-like doll, and a blurred spirit. I adore the symbolism behind this photo; the fine line between life and death. At least that's how I saw it. You can see this photo any way you'd like. Another thing that makes art beautiful is that everyone interprets it differently.

How do you think I did? This was my first modeling job, after all. The photographer told me to sit on the chair, look straight into the camera with a blank expression, and cock my head. I thought I did alright for my first time.

Sorry for such a long-winded post about a single photograph. I'm a bit over excited, I suppose :)

What does this photo symbolize to you?

friday night l i g h t s *

Driving down to Boston to party with all my favorite girls. I'm rather excited as this past week has been filled with nothing but honors advanced algebra and trigonometry, which is hardly my cup of tea (saying I don't like math is an understatement). So, what are my plans for the rest of the night? A dip in the pool, dinner with the girls at my favorite little Italian restaurant, roaming the city streets and hopping around to some of our favorite hot spots. After that, who knows? The night's still young ;) Surely tomorrow will be filled with various spa services, breakfast in bed, hot green tea, and shopping excursions. Then I'm back to reality.

I'm ready to party ♥

What are your weekend plans darlings?

Hello, winter

studded hearts

With winter approaching I needed a little bit of inspiration to get me through the week. This color; I d i e ♥ Oh, how I am craving summer already. Savoring the last few weeks of autumn... I hope you're all having a most fabulous week, and sorry for my absence, I've been quite busy lately and haven't devoted enough time to blogging.

In need of more Halloween inspiration? Look no further than the most glamorous show on television, Gossip Girl. Because like everything else, the Upper East Siders do Halloween a little differently. Picture this (or watch the episode, How to Succeed in Bassness) : A club filled with socialites sipping martinis dressed in sparkling vintage 1920s frocks. Jealous much? I was, as I am quite infatuated with all things 20s. I even wrote and produced a play set in that time period (for more 1920s style click here, for more gossip girl style click here). Anyways, my eyes were literally glued to the screen. Oh how I wish to stroll around in a glamorous sequined mini. Sigh. A flapper would be a fabulous Halloween costume. If you decide to take on the role of a 1920s temptress, do send/post pictures!

For more 20s inspiration take a peek at this Vogue editorial. The Lady is a Vamp ♥ ..

By the way, sorry for the constant Halloween posting.. What can I say, I'm very excited!

I wish I were in Paris, strutting along in stilettos, but alas, I'm not. I have to let go of my fantasies and realize that I still need to go to school and handle all of my day to day responsibilities. So, once again I'm quite sorry for the lack of lengthy posts and/or any posts at all. I hope to return to constant blogging ASAP! I hope all of you are having a fabulous week. Kisses!

CHIC.

Photos from Tim Burton's Harper's Bazaar shoot

Halloween, the one day you can be anyone or anything you want. A sexy seductress, whimsical fairy tale character, frisky black cat, or even the classic witch; no matter what you are, have fun with it. Halloween only comes once a year ;)

There's nothing quite like a steaming cup of cider, a bag full of delicious treats, or crisp air filled with blowing leaves. All of these things give you a feeling that you will only come across on this one day. Halloween brings back childhood memories of sticky candy corn and the visits to the dentist that followed. You remember running down a chilly street, ringing countless doorbells.

I have thousands of Halloween memories, but one that stands out among the rest. After a long night of trick-or-treating my younger sister and I would come home and watch Tim Burton (one of my favorite directors) movie marathons. Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, and Sweeney Todd were among our favorites. As you must have guessed, this is why I posted this Tim Burton editorial; for your viewing pleasure, and my reminiscing.

So, what am I going to be, you ask? Well you'll just have to wait and see ;) I made my costume all by myself and I am actually very proud. It turned out much better than I expected. Previous costumes of mine include the likes of Little Miss. Muffet, a flapper, a lion, a witch, and Audrey Hepburn.

What are your Halloween plans, or memories? And what are you planning on being? :)

one short day in the city;

Ah yes, the city. Of course my heart belongs to New York, but when you live six hours away that can't happen every weekend. So Boston, being only about two hours away, will have to do. I spent a rainy Sunday shopping around the city, sipping hot coffees, and to top it all off, dinner at a small (yet delicious) authentic italian restaurant. What better way to spend a Sunday? I've posted various pictures of one of my best friends and myself. We found an adorable picturesque park and decided to do some modeling. Now of course, we are not in any way professionals, nor were any of the shots good quality (mostly due to the rain). But we had fun. Guess which one is me ;)

perfection.
