Standing on a corner in Winslow, Arizona











I ordered this coat a few months ago from Urban Outfitters, but it's been on back order for so long that I just finally got it. It's another one of those things that is just plain ugly, but totally. Fucking. Rad. The print has a very southwestern feel if you ask me, and it totally makes me miss Arizona. Oh, yeah, and just to clarify: these pictures were not taken on a corner in Winslow, Arizona. I wish! But I'm thinking of planning a little retreat to the area in January...it's my favorite vacation spot!

I've been crazy busy for the last few couple of days, and it's not going to go away any time soon. In the next 38 days, I will: finish a moderately large independent study project, complete my two remaining classes, put in 115 more hours at my internship and do the necessary assignments for that to receive school credit, make Christmas presents (that's right, bitch. Make.), *hopefully* apartment hunt, and work 15-25 hours a week. Confused about that last part? Yeah. I got a job that I actually get paid for. I start Thursday! I'm super excited but a tad bit stressed at the same time. I'll still be blogging throughout all of this, but be warned that posts might be just a little more sparse than normal for the next month or so. Luckily, once school is over (December 18th), about all I'll have going on is a part time job, so there is an end to this craziness in sight!

  17. I am thinking that this. Is. The Best Coat Ever! Embrace the busyness!

  18. You're right. That coat is butt ugly-hot. Ugly-hot. I think I have a pair of boots that fit into that category. You pull it off really beautiful. I honestly think you should model because you manage to sell me clothes I would normally never wear.

    I also think great minds think alike. In this case, very, very alike.

  19. Take it easy... take it easy...

    I have relatives in Tucson and visited AZ for the first time recently. Having never been to the desert, I wondered why nobody had a lawn in front of their house...

  21. I've been absolutely craving a southwestern patterned bag with a pint similar to your coat. I want one with leather trim... like the old school Pendelton bags. Lust. Adore. Such a clear hit!

  22. pint = print. (Though I could use a Pint right now, too. haha)

  27. It's good to be busy but not stressed-out busy I think!
    Re: EM-I've used it for 3-4years now and couldn't be happier with how it feels on my skin and doesn't break it out.It comes in different finishes like Matte,Glow and Intensive. And the best part is they give free samples for you to try before you buy.
