Blue Year's





New Year's Resolution 2012: Start standing on the other side in my photos. Why do I always veer to the left?

2011 has been a year. Let's review:

  • Received my college diploma. Missed magna cum laude by 0.005 points.
  • Dyed my hair red.
  • Turned 21. Did not get crunk.
  • Dyed my hair brown.
  • Started graduate school.
  • Dyed my hair brown with teal tips.
  • Opened a can of soup with a hammer.
  • Dyed my hair blonde. Also chopped it off at the same time.
  • Broke up with my boyfriend.
  • Had my house broken into. Fended off robbers with my infamous scowl.
  • Started a second job.
  • Wore socks as mittens.
  • Quit my first job. Pissed a lot of people off.

    Do you like how half of the milestones involve my hair? Me too.

    In all honesty, New Year's is my least favorite holiday. It's a symbolistic holiday, which works great for idealists, but I'm a realist. Tomorrow will be the same as today, except we'll write "12" at the end of "20" instead of "11." The end.

    Anyway. I'm not going out tonight, but if I did, I'd probably wear something like this. Please note my amazing animal print bracelet from friend Tracy. She sent it a while ago and I've been wearing it AND getting compliments on it like nobody's business. THANK YOU TRACY. WUV U, BABY GURL.

    Oh, and those are my Giuseppe Zanotti stripper heels. Take a good look, because they don't come out often.

    Jacket: Doma
    Dress: Lulu's (I think)
    Heels: Giuseppe Zanotti

    8. I frickin love your stripper heels, whooohoo. This outfit is so badass, love the layered dress with the leather jacket.
      Hair changes are a pretty big deal, your hair has been through a lot this year, we should celebrate that.

    14. Stripper heels -- YEAHHHHHHHH, BUDDY.
      I love how you change your hair so much. I wish I had the nut sack to do the same. But I don't. Because I'm lame.
      You certainly had an eventful 2011. Maybe 2012 will be just as exciting?

    15. I wish I had the guts to dye my hair so often. I really want to try a dark, deep red. Still, I don't want to screw up my current color. GAH. I should just wear wigs. Anyway, love the scowl. I haven't see you with blonde hair like that, so I'mma go creep on your old posts to witness this transformation.

      New blog!

    18. Is it possible that you've coloured your hair again? It looks more blonde! You've had quite the year- opening can of soup with a hammer- that's how you know you're a student ;) Here's to a fab 2012 and hopefully many new hair dos (I'm feeling a hair change myself!)

    21. You look GORGEOUS. I feel like I say that every single time I see your posts. But it's just so dang true. So there, beautiful. I've loved every single hairstyle of yours in 2011 and can't wait to see how you change it up in 2012 although, the way you have it now is my all time favorite.

      I'm glad you love the bracelet and you wear it a bunch. That makes me happy. I love you too gurrrrl.

      One of my 2012 goals is to meet you IRL.

      xoxo,
      Tracy

    26. I don't care if you dislike New Year's as a holiday, I am going to wish you a happy new year anyway. I want you to be happy your whole life really. Not just this year in particular. January 1st just gives people a nice excuse to say it. So there. :P I am completely jealous of you because of that jacket, those tights, and those shoes. They're ridiculous. (By the way, I bowled a 46! Hurray!)
