Super Supreme di-ba-be-di-oh



I still have Fall fever!

The leaves changing, scarves, tights, and all those rich jewel tones! It really puts me in the holiday mood. First, Halloween, then Turkey-day, and finally Christmas (or whatever winter festivities you partake in)! It's so exciting!

One part of this season means that it's almost NaNoWriMo time again!! NaNoWriMo means, National Novel Writing Month (ie. November)! This year Cara and I are going to write novels again and I am getting keyed up for the entire process! I have been brainstorming for a few months now, just wating for November to start!

My novel is called "Hearters" and it's a young-adult fantasy novel about a human family who lives in a world where the Hearters are second class citizens and how a series of events leads to thier family being torn apart. It's basically a story about all sorts of fantastical beings; like all the nerdy things to write about: witches, wizards, vampires, shapeshifters, beasts, and a race called the Fairen.

So, I look forward to the 50,000 word challenge! Unfortunately, I know that my schoolwork is going to become harder to keep up with and that my blogposts will become less frequent or just shorter...sorry in advance!

What I Want My Life To Be

A Day in the Life of Kelly:
Today was a great day!!
I woke up at the crack of 10ish! And then I stumbled to the coffee that I now drink every morning! I think I sing "the best part of wakin' up is Folder's in my cup" every morning. (Probably to my roomies annoyances)
Then I watched TLC, What Not to Wear - love this show!! Then we decided to photoshoot it up...I got to play in the leaves with Cara and embrace Fall-time! :D Okay, so my hair was not cooperating at all, but I embraced my wildwoman/Amazon hair and let the leaves fall where they may.
It's not all butterfilies and roses, I had to go to class; I went to Western Civilization and learned I got a B on my midterm. Not too shabby. Then I went to Technical Writing, learned a little somethin'-somethin' about Graphics and got to go home early!
When I got home I ate some of my Dad's lasagna leftovers (Yummy!) Then all my friendzies came over and we watched Project RUnway!! I am so excited for the finale next week! I hope Anya wins! ANd I love that Zoe Saldana guest starred today! Loves <3
So, that's my day!! Now, I need to get ready to buy FLorence + the Machine tickets tomorrow!!

Better Lock it, in your Pocket

This is my favorite Fall look! It might look like I'm going to a square-dance or a harvest hoedown, but I like to mix the country/floral sweetness with a bit of nerdy and edge. Hence, the big spotted black and brown glasses (or as Cara says BCGs) and the Madonna lace black gloves.

In reality, I would probably wear this if I was going out with some friends or even out dancing (probably not a farmer barn dance, but possibly...maybe some where like Pitchfork Festival, though)!

Another reason I really like this dress is the print and coloring. It is a peachy color, but has bright pops of purple, orange, and red for the floral print. If you look really close there is also little Roman-esq structured domed buildings on it too. The lace around the edges give it some frill and make it sweet, but also a bit folksy-old-fashioned!

Overall, super cute and fun to spin in circles in!

I am the Iron Batman



Pretty strange for a fashion blog to have something as casual as Tee's right? But while fashion is a statement of who you are- Generally mine tells people I like frills and girly things- when I wear my favorite comic book t shirts people now know what a total and complete geek I am. It often sparks conversations with fellow geeks or with complete strangers which I why I love my T-shirts so much.
