move

I am no longer going to continue posting on exquis illusiore, however I have created a new blog that will have virtually the same subject matter, probably with more writing here and there. I just needed a fresh start. The new blog is called wanderlust, and you can read it here.

sleeeeeeep

There couldn't possibly be a better feeling than lying in bed in the summer, with the windows open, and the perfect song playing. Here is what I've been listening to to fall asleep.

After Hours - The Velvet Underground
Come Pick Me Up - Ryan Adams
Dear Prudence - The Beatles
Drinking, Thinking, Sinking, Feeling - Slow Club
Folding Chair - Regina Spektor
Going to California - Led Zeppelin
The Greatest - Cat Power
Home to Me - Madeline Adams
I Believe - Cast of Spring Awakening
I Will Never Love You More - SoKo
New Slang - The Shins
Samson - Regina Spektor
Shadows - Au Revoir Simone
So Much Beauty in Dirt - Modest Mouse
The Song of Purple Summer - Cast of Spring Awakening
Used to Be - Beach House
Whatever - Elliot Smith
The Word of Your Body - Cast of Spring Awakening
The 59th Street Bridge Song - Simon and Garfunkle
Childhood - Beach House
Tomorrow Tomorrow - Elliot Smith

This summer has been amazing. So far haven't regretted much, probably because I haven't gotten caught sneaking out yet.. impressive considering my track record with such things!

This blog is creepin up on the 100th post.. I'm trying to figure out what to do since there aren't many apparent readers or commenters. Part of me wants to delete, but the other part wants to keep it for the sake of having a place to put whatever I want. Hmm...

Stella really killed it this year. I need all of these things asap. I especially love the beaded pants and jumpsuit, and the flowered tunic. Miss Stella, you have outdone yourself.

(mostly from tfs, a few from random blogs, Seinfeld has been sitting on my desktop for a thousand years)
I hate being home alone. I refuse to let myself sleep.. 2 pots of coffee last night/this morning. My body weighs a thousand pounds, my brain is awake but weak from lack of sleep. There is something wrong with me haha.

blastin' Fresh Prince's Summertime

Image and video hosting by TinyPic sunglasses-vuarnet, shoes - UO, dress - selfmade

All I do is ride my bike, and all I wear are dresses with the occasional tank top and jean short combination. I'm much to lazy, and it's much too hot out to muster much else.
I'm particularly excited about this dress, which I sewed myself last night based off of an Urban Outfitters design. I'm lame but proud! :]
P.S.
My bike is badass. No lie.

Fucking gorgeous.
I first saw these images in W on the plane ride to Paris. Something I don't think I'll ever stop loving are thin fabrics, etheral flowiness and pastel colors, soft cardigans, long natural hair and no make-up. So beautiful.
One of these will be my new header in the near future.
