something simple

here's an outfit that i've been liking very much lately, for university and running errands. it's comfortable and nice to wear, plus the neck scarf makes it a little extra sweet.

the neck scarf is from cozy corner in the city, the shirt has been in my closet for years, and the skirt is from american apparel.

a speedy birthday summary

hello! here is the world's fastest summary of my birthday yesterday. the day was not-so-good for obvious reasons, but the night was very nice. i finally got my beautiful nikon d5000, and wouldn't stop taking pictures of just about everything. i refused to read the manual, so some of them turned out a bit funny. i'll have to show you very soon! here you can see me and my lovely camera, who i have named lola, my sweet boyfriend carrying a big box of presents home, and of course my beautiful review dress that i finally got a chance to wear. around my neck you can probably make out one of my presents, a pretty heart necklace. i got so many nice things, like little paper dolls and tickets to concerts and neck scarves, that i'll have to dedicate a post to them some time. now i must get back to writing an essay on toasters. have a fine day!

neck scarves

here are my very best neck scarves! they're so damn difficult to pick because they look crazy different when actually rolled up around your neck. most neck scarves are quite ugly, really, when you take a good look at them. i realise that they look quite unappealing in this picture, but i'm sure you can imagine that they look a whole lot cuter on. my favourite is the bright turquoise, i think. the third one down is covered in small men on horses, and i found it yesterday at the antiques store. you may also remember the spotted scarf from the suitcase rummage. the rest i have picked up at korean accessories stalls in the middle of shopping centers. soon i'll be the owner of a really sweet floral one that i found on asos. see you tomorrow!
