July...

Shoes; Irregular Choice | Shorts; Lucca Couture via Buffalo Exchange | Top; c/o a friend

Yes, I am aware these photos are two months old now. Yes, I am aware that is pretty dang sad. But, better late than never, no? My absolute favorite shoes. I love the architectural aspect of these Irregular Choice Annabelle Trolleys. I don't think I've ever been more obsessed with a pair of shoes. I had literally wanted these for a year and a half, and finally gave in and purchased them. Best decision. The shirt I recently cut into a crop top. My friend, Corey, had gifted me this shirt while he was in the process of forming his new band, Storm Circus. I'm sure you all remember these shorts from a more recent post. Love them. They're the most comfortable things ever, and I love the bright colors.

So, it's September now. This year is flying by. It's also still incredibly hot here in California. I don't normally complain, because I hate being cold. But... I've recently purchased so many A/W pieces that I just want to wear already, which I can't in 100 degree weather! So, California. Cool down some, if only for my new clothes... Ha.

Hope you all are having a great week!

First off.. I really, really, REALLY miss my longer, healthy hair. PLEASE GROW FAST!!! I mean, I know I didn't have much of a choice, as I gave myself a chemical cut, and I know me rocking short hair is nothing out of the norm, but.. I really do miss having a bit of length on the sides. Sigh. Now I wait (not so) patiently for it to grow out again.

Secondly, I must thank my good friend Corey Martin, musician and frontman extraordinaire of the band The Radiance Effect, for giving me this t-shirt! If you know me, you know I love cats. I did DIY the shirt a bit, and cut off the sleeves and collar to make it more of a muscle tank. Be sure to check out The Radiance Effect, and you can download their new album for free here.

Corey is actually launching a new band, Storm Circus, on September 1st with other members of  The Radiance Effect, so be sure to be on the lookout for that!
