m e o w

Since the last time I updated I've really been having a music-filled summer - went to Pitchfork, VEVO Lift and Lollapalooza. I'd like to say that out of all the acts across different festivals/concerts, I'm still blown away that I got to see Lana Del Rey live and pretty f*ckin' close. 

Now I can finally ease into really setting up my room/the rest of the apartment - decorating is hard and expensive. I've also been trying to find a good place in the apt. to shoot some quick OOTD's, and I think I found a decent lil' spot. 

I threw on my cat lady dress that reminded me of my little white cat, Mila. I'm one of those people.

M E O W | UNIF Part 1 of 2

I was contemplating on whether or not I should get the "meow" sweater by UNIF, but I bit the bullet and bought it off of Dollskill and love it so much! The material is heavy without being too hot, it's slightly shorter in the front, it has a cat on it and the best part of all: it has fringed sleeves! Such a unique twist to a sweater. I wanted to shoot an outfit for it as soon as I got it but I ran out of ideas on how to wear it/style it (which is weird because I now have thought of a million). I ran to my comfort zone: all black. Paired it with my newest obsession: my Jeffrey Campbell 'Tardy' shoes.

I loved this sweater so much, I also got a similar one that I'll post tomorrow!

So cold shooting in 20 degree weather!

My Babygirl, Mila

Some people know, others don't, but on April 1st, Lisa gave me the best birthday present ever: my kitty, Mila! I wasn't expecting it because 1) It was two days before my birthday 2) I never thought I'd get a cat! Mila - pronounced like the actress, Mila Kunis (aka - me-lah) - was the name she had since she was at the Anti-Cruelty Society in downtown Chicago and I thought she should keep her badass name...it suits her. She's been the best addition to my life and I love her like no other. It's been 4 months since I've been lucky to have this little girl with me and she'll be almost a year old. I'll always remember my sister and Lisa walking in with her to my apartment back in Champaign and the way she looked at everything with her huge eyes. She loved the roomies, Ian, Krystal and Lisa and anyone she met, even though she can be a diva. So here's my cat appreciation post, from one proud momma', & trust me, I have hundreds of photos, but I just chose some easily accessible ones at the moment. Her photoshoots should make it on here in the near future :)
PS: Happy 1st of the month!
