Nothing Gold Can Stay

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

~Robert Frost

Randomness

You know you're a Minnesotan when you go outside in 30 degree weather in a tank top and run inside screaming hysterically that it's WARM out there!!...

On another note, I leave you a photo from the random folder on my computer...

When Jordan attacks...

That is all.

Snowfall

The same leaves over and over again!

They fall from giving shade above

To make one texture of faded brown

And fit the earth like a leather glove.

Before the leaves can mount again

To fill the trees with another shade,

They must go down past things coming up.

They must go down into the dark decayed.

They must be pierced by flowers and put

Beneath the feet of dancing flowers.

However it is in some other world

I know that this is way in ours.

I'm trying to find the beauty in nature today, the snow is making it hard. Vanessa Bruno video's and Robert  Frost poems are helping though <3

24 Reasons I Love Little Doe

Headpieces, Jewelry, Lingerie Oh my...
Dear Little Doe,
I consider my mind officially blown...
If my profession of love did not convince you, dear reader, of Little Doe's awesomeness just let the pictures do the talking.

yeah, thats what I thought.

Dissatisfied

Went through my clothes today.

Realized suddenly that I will be 20 soon.

No longer a teenager...

Wanting something more elegant...

I realized today that even though I had the original intentions of posting photos on here I rarely ever do.

Maybe it's because I feel sometimes a picture is formed when you read a blog. Of what that person looks like or sounds like. I think it may be I just don't want to dissatisfy expectations.

Or maybe it's simply the fact that I wish I were more polished like these ladies and less like a broke college girl. Whichever makes me feel better I guess ;)

Clothing's version of a bandaid

I wear a piece of clothing until it is dead. If I love it it will be with me until it is a tattered whisper of what it once was... Today I had to throw out my old favorite black flats, unfortunately it was their time =( And at the same time I discovered a huge hole in the elbow of my trusty cardigan. This cardigan has been with me through the transition from high school to college, I wore it on my first date with Jordan. I just couldn't bring myself to throw it out, so I came up with an alternative. This is where you come in dear reader ;) What color elbow patches should I get for my lovely black knit cardigan?

Brown Suede

Fawn Suede

The passion lasted for an hour

Once in a green time a flower...

Oh, fell in love with the sun...

The passion lasted for an hour...

And then she wilted from her loved one...

First snowfall...

Ive lost all desire to do anything that doesn't involve sitting here with a hot cup o joe, and blogging because it snowed for the first time this morning. 

When I woke up, the green grass I fell asleep too was completely covered in a blanket of snow a couple inches deep and there is not a sign of it letting up.

But I have a plan you see. An ingenious one.

I'm going to sit inside and lounge around... I probably wont wear a ball gown. Or maybe I will! Why the hell not? At least Ill feel pretty like Sofie ;)
