Just Call Me Diana.


Hey guys! Happy Monday :)
I've just recently rediscovered my Diana F lens for my digital camera, and I forgot how much I absolutely adore it. I just love how dreamy the photos come out. GAH! I think this picture of me is just... I don't know how to explain it. I feel like it has a story. New favorite lens? I think so.

What is your favorite kind of picture? Mine is definitely dreamy and full of color or black & white. 
Stay lovely!

Groovy, Baby.

Hey guys!
Long time no see.
I have come to you with not one but two outfit of the days! How exciting!
*yay Megan you're the best*
Anyway, the first one I want to show you is a school girl inspired outfit, and the second is 70s inspired.
I just want to point out the ridiculous weather patterns of Chicago, first.
This was on Sunday: (10 degrees)



And this was yesterday: (50 degrees)

Shoes are thrifted, socks are American Apparel.


The last of the snow.

Me dancing to Françoise Hardy and eating my avocado wrap after it started raining. xD

Rain commences. 

Lucky me, all of this rain will turn to ice when it's 9 degrees tomorrow (as a high)
YAY CHICAGO!
Have a lovely day my friends.

A Day in the Life

Hello everyone! :)
Again, I can make as many excuses as I want about not being able to post but that doesn't change the fact that I haven't been posting!
My room is FINALLY almost finished! We just need to put in the doors, the carpet, and paint the walls. I AM SO EXCITED!
If you were not informed, I am currently living in our "office" on a blow up mattress. It's awful. But hey, at least I have a bed.
Anyway, for my photography club we were assigned to take a camera around with us one day and take a photo set themed as A Day in the Life.

Rather than taking my digital camera I decided to do something a little different.
A while back my friend and I found a Goodwill selling expired disposable cameras, so of course I bought a few.
All of the pictures below were taken on one of these cameras. Some of them turned out so pretty and others look like utter crap.
Here is the result!

Fell asleep with the computer next to me, haha.

An unusually warm December day.

Odie. Not a wiener dog but a sausage.



Picking out a tree.



Thrift store!


Unflattering angle of my legs!

Our weeping angel.

Lunch at a pub.

Crafting at night!

Zombies and Updates

She looks murderous... hehehe.
Hello my lovely friends! Happy Thanksgiving!
I thought I'd take some time to just update a little bit since I haven't been posting as much as I'd like to.
School has been incredibly hectic with Thanksgiving break and teachers trying to throw in tests before we left.
Because of that, I haven't had as much time to do things I would like to :(
Anyway, the other night I had a photoshoot with my friend Nicole and some of the pictures turned out smashing.
The one above is my absolute favorite!
We were just taking normal head shots until we started playing around with her makeup and hair, and well, this was the result. 

Got these from the Flea Market!
We teased the poop out of her hair and put eyeshadow on her legs to make them appear bruised. Turned out pretty creepy.
Another thing I've been doing a lot of in online window shopping...
I need help.
I lack the funds to actually buy anything but I'm constantly looking at it all!
Thankfully I'm heading over to a mall near me to go Black Friday shopping at midnight! I'm hoping I can find stuff at Urban Outfitters and American Apparel. Possibly H&M.
If not, there's always Cyber Monday :D

I thought I'd show you my outfit for today!




Sorry the quality is so bad, for some reason it got altered when I cropped the picture. 
The dress, purse, and blazer are all from F21. (Unfortunately they're all a tad large on me now)
The shoes are from Payless I believe! And I curled my hair with this awesome curling wand my sister brought with her. It did some serious stuff to my hair. I love it!

This week I also bought some stuff on Modcloth.
Well I say bought, but I really got it for free.
When they were doing their whole give 20 get 20 promotion. 


The ring is called the No Conquest Ring: http://www.modcloth.com/shop/rings-pins/no-conquest-ring-in-gold
I got it in gold but it's also available in silver.
The socks are the Space of Your Own socks: http://www.modcloth.com/shop/tights-socks/space-of-your-own-socks
And they are my absolute favorite pair of socks I have ever owned. I want to be an astrophysicist one day, so I thought these socks were absolutely adorable. Anyway, I'll probably be posting later tonight or early tomorrow, so look out for that!

I'll talk to you later!
I'm gonna go eat some stuffing!

This Fall.

To me, fall has officially ended.
In my world it is now the winter.
...even though it's not snowing yet.
Regardless, a great season has ended, and another has started up. ^_^
I love the winter/fall time of year. It is easily the best time of the year.
Taken with an expired disposable camera.
So, I bring to you another installment of my life in photos.

Wednesday Addams for Hallowe'en. Awe yeah.

Ran into the Doctor at the Renaissance Faire. 

Another Disposable camera picture.

Anyone recognize this? No?
I would just like to say that I am so proud of this. It's a Big Daddy from Bioshock that I carved into a pumpki






Rockin' the middle part.






M'wahh!
Toodles!
