SPOTTED: 2NE1 - I AM THE BEST Choreography Video (Also some rambling and Nail Art)
For 2NE1 related section scroll until you see... 2NE1.
I'm back! Well ACTUALLY, I came back maybe a couple of days ago but you know... my blog is only 1, we're not power-bloggers :D. When we turn two maybe we'll blog on our phone the moment we land in JFK but this time around I had to wash plane ick off and take a random nap and then hibernate. I also ate Lemoncello cake which was mind you, very good and I'm still craving it :O. Seriously, I need to get back into my workout schedule or I'm just going to keep eating Friendly's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and painting my nails (true story). Water marbling actually. Inspired by...
and then sent here...
At this point I was lost and am still lost. It's just so much fun and I when I do my nails normally I always bang them somewhere while they're drying or something mysterious happens and they get screwed up. Or they get the fabric print of my comforter embedded on them, you know when I go to sleep because I think they're dry? Not so with this method. Sure my expensive $10 Sephora by O.P.I. nail polish remover is half gone thanks to my experimentation/addiction but I mean I think I only used half of the half and the other half was already used by my nieces, sisters, and once in a while, me. Also that sunny sheet set I got from... hm... from one of those department stores, they all blend together in my mind because I associate them with suffering and getting lost. But anyhow, the sheet now has a seemingly unremovable nail polish streak. Well a few, fine. Oh and the rug is also a casualty. That's the second nail polish stain on my rug. My niece won't forget it which would depressing if I liked the rug but I don't. She claims that I dropped the nail polish which I did not, the nail polish fell. There's also a cup which I may or may not be able to remove the nail polish off of but I've just decided it's my water marbling cup.
That said, I've been considering posting my current Youtube tutorial obsessions on this blog too since there's a lot but that's for another post.
As for taking pictures while on vacay, heheh, that didn't go too well but the huge post part I can cover. Anyone (anyone out there? lol jk ;P) who reads my blog can attest to that.
Anyhoo...
I was watching the 2NE1 Choreography vid for I AM THE BEST which is the best thing since my last 2NE1 obsession (Go Away), and I'm sure someone has put this on their blog centuries before me but I couldn't remember if they did so I just searched it up and decided I'd put it here.
Kreepsville 666 - Skeleton Print Skinny Jeans - $73.58
CL was spotted wearing these in the video and aren't they awesome? Didn't Jeremy Scott do a pair of sweatpants along the same lines? I think I prefer the skinny jeans though. Definitely a good way to make a pair of plain black skinnys pop.
S College Letterman Jacket White (Yes, I'm also scratching my head) - $?
This one it might be better to see in motion cause aside from the fact that it's name is uninspiring (maybe because I found it in the catalog), it looks very boring here...
That was fun, wasn't it? I think the pushing around backup dancer thing tends to be overdone in choreography overall but hey, it's better than making irritating cutesy faces/expressions which seems to be the other popular option. But yeah I've been on the hunt for a letterman jacket and naturally Adidas has the perfect one. Of course I can't find it on their site; they say to look for it in a store. Maybe I'll check out the Soho store. I mean it would be nice to get a price on it to begin with.
And now I'm going to have to do an Adidas post. And an Asos post but that I blame on the fact that I decided to check my email.
Ta!

Fashion Inspiration Pics since last post (April 21)
It is not even a secret that I hoard fashion inspiration images. I have tons and tons of pictures on my hard drive.
So here's what's new :)
(Image from Allkpop)
I love suits. Many people associate suits with Wall Street and monotony but this picture makes it clear that it doesn't have to be boring to wear a suit. I mean what you do in your suit is your call but while the corporate world may limit your options, outside work there are plenty of options in terms of colors, cuts, buttons, prints, vests, etc. And then of course, there are tons of options when it comes to the shoes. You can opt for the expected dress shoe or an oxford or a loafer. Or maybe boat shoes but just hit up any Aldo and you'll have plenty of options. They have some of the most awesome men's shoes. Just finish off with a Kurt Hummel hairstyle and you'll look supa fly ;P
Oh ok, so it says Allkpop on the pic so you know where it's from. I should have cropped this since the only reason I saved it is because of Heechul's pink blazer. It's a very nice look pairing the pink blazer and tie with a white ensemble.
(Image from the "GOOD HAIR" blog)
This is a super pretty braided updo. I especially like how the front is left curly. Considering my hair braiding drama this morning, I'm far from being able to do something like this but that's why it's an "inspiration pic" ;P I also recommend checking out this blog, it has a lot of useful info.
(Image from... somewhere? :O)
This is the Burberry Ad I was talking about on Twitter. I saw it in Harper's Bazaar at the public library (did you know they carry stuff like that? :). Studs and leather? Supa fine.
(Image from The Fashionisto)
Another blog I recommend checking out, especially if you hoard fashion pics like some people I know... :D This outfit in general works for me. The jacket is a nice color and fit and it's a nice contrast to the khaki pants. The sneakers, shades, and hair just seal the deal. As for the magazine, I do that to books when I'm clearly not getting any reading done, heh.
(Image from Allkpop)
I suppose it goes without saying that I like formal wear as casual wear. First the suits and now this. But isn't it cool how they tied the ties together like that? Also that's a nice somewhat nautical (or Nautica? :O) belt.
(Image from Allkpop)
In my first (EVAR) inspiration image dump, I put a picture that featured a similar style outfit. It was the one where they had the female models tucking polos into tulle skirts and suggesting that it was rock band wear. If you say so... But anyhow, in my opinion, this outfit always works. I like the hair too, Kurt Hummel with tamer bangs? Yes, I'm a big fan of Kurt Hummel :P
(Image from... again, somewhere? :O)
I usually don't like this type of dress but I will make an exception for Halle Berry because she looks foine in it. I'm also usually skeptical of the type of sandals she's wearing but they look good on her and with the dress. Her hair on the other hand is just super cute :)
(Images from Allkpop)
The first pic characterizes the way I find (read: hoard) fashion pics. I don't actually have to like the outfit but I have to find it in intriguing in some way. I do however like her belt and her lip color. As for the second pic, I like how the scarf is twisted and used as a headband (it looks like a scarf but who knows).
(Image from Allkpop)
This is here simply because I like her ponytail. I like ponytails.
(Image from Eiffel In Seoul)
Interestingly enough I'm in no mood to talk about hair today yet this picture is here because I like her hair. The vest is also a nice color.
(Image from Allkpop)
See pics 1 & 6. But as per my discussion of pic 1, see how versatile this style is? Otherwise what would possess you to buy fern colored pants? (That is provided you're not my philosophy professor... -_-) And vests are a staple whether you like this style or not. A staple that is on my list of staples that I have yet to buy. For some reason I can't find one I like...

It looks so soft... :O
Ta!

ASOS Men's Sale + BEAST inspired outfit
So, in the process of helping my friend shop, I have been led to do this post.
Gio Gio Threes Perforated Print T-Shirt - $25.10
I'm not sure what to say. First time I'm truly blogging about menswear and I'm not sure how to go about it lol. I can't say it's a cute shirt because... it's not. It's a nice shirt. I like how the brand name is slashed across the front. And the green looks good on the black.
Amplified Run DMC Its Like That T-Shirt - $32.27
Yes, I am one of those people who only knows about Run DMC through fashion. A crime, I know. A crime for all seasons, actually ;) lol
Diesel Bone Fire Rescue T-Shirt - $28.69
Do I need to explain? Okay fine. First of all, it's an orange shirt. Second of all, it's an orange shirt that says Fire Rescue. I overanalyze the universe so I love this shirt. I feel like writing it into my novel.
And in honor of my friend's style...
Superdry Technical Jacket - $116.55
Gio Gio Betallion Lightweight Nylon Jacket - $28.69
Superdry Royals Tin-Tab Hoodie - $98.58
Superdry Grass Track Blacklabel Hooded Sweat Top - $98.62
G Star MCintyre Hooded Sweat Shirt - $125.51
ASOS Dark Wash Slim Jeans - $53.79
G Star 3301 Straight Jeans - $143.44
River Island Padded Hi-Top Sneakers - $80.67
River Island Hi-Top Sneakers - $62.74
So apparently I like Superdry. Now I'm going to have to visit their store in Noho rather than just looking at it curiously and thinking of laundry.

Jackets
Why jackets now that it's coat season? I still wear a jacket under my coat. Nice coat but when it gets to be 17 degrees and windy... a wool coat is not going to cut it. It's usually wearing a couple of shirts, then the jacket, then the coat.
Imitation leather, pile collar according to H&M UK. I'm sure you can find this in one of the millions of H&M's in NYC. Or outside of NYC. Yay to the collar! Shearling obsession :)
Luxirie Varsity Jacket - $54.99
I've been wanting a varsity jacket for a while. This one is cute but it's pink and blue. I'm not sure if I'm ready to make that leap. But H&M had one that I can't find on the UK website that I might look into. This one is pretty cute though.
American Eagle also had one but it's out of stock.
