As you know, I monitor my only three style muses: Vashtie, Solange and Kelis. 2 out of 3 have thigh highs. I keep seeing them on American Apparel and Urban Outfitters, and I'm really wanting some. When you say thigh highs, most people think this
But I think this...
IDK, but I'm not sure if they would work for me. I'm have a working girls body and I don't know if a working girl should put her big legs into an American Apparell model's thigh highs?

Ever since I was about 13 years olad, I've longed for the classic quilted Chanel bag! The preppy girls at my school would tote them around, but me being the 'anti' girl wouldn't want to admit that I was seduced by it's charm. Then I saw Vashtie donning her (absolutely perfect) Violet Chanel bag with thigh highs, leggings, a camo jacket, a vintage Smith's tee, and vintage cut offs. She was the perfect inundacion to my new love for Chanel.
Then there was Solange.
...and recently Kelis
I'm totally going to admit that these are my 3 favourite women in the industry EVER! As we know I've loved Kelis for over a decade now, and Vashtie is my favourite video director, and Solange is my ultimate style muse. I 've decided that I'm going to eventually buy all of these bags and buy one white one and have it custom dyed Magenta. But hey, I'm 16 so I have some time.

I'M ABSOLUTELY MAD FOR SOLANGE!
Okay, I'm going to post some pictures of her so you can see what I'm talking about!
(AHHH KELIS...that's another post)

YOU SEE WHY I'M SO CRAZY ABOUT HER?
She has a great Blog, and has beautiful pictures to accompany it. For an art nerd like me... She's a dream come true.
...plus her lipstick is SO pretty!

My inner-grunge, white girl is attracted to musicial geniuses. So, now that I've discovered the raw power of Nirvana, I'm totally in love with Kurt. Many of you might be thinking " 2010 and you've never really listened to Nirvana? What the FUCK?" But I'm just now embracing that inner grunge white girl...and sometimes we'll venture outside of N.E.R.D and Hole for something new.

Early Friday morning, Justin and I loaded up the car and headed East on I-10. Before long, we were in Louisiana! I have never been to Louisiana so I was really excited for this trip - mostly for the food! This trip was to celebrate our 2 year wedding anniversary, which was on Monday.
Friday night, we began our LA experience with none other than Bourbon Street. It was wild and crazy enough for me in the "off" season; I have no desire to experience Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras. We checked out a few places I was told were good by a co-worker who is from LA. We walked in and right back out of several places...
Of course I had to walk in the voo-doo store. What trip to New Orleans would be complete without it?
And we stopped in Harrah's for some gambling - my first time to do that too. Justin and I decided we would each play with $100. I got $60 in chips and sat down to play Blackjack. After losing 6 straight hands with a minimum bet of $10, I was down to $0. I decided that this wasn't any fun, so I didn't even play with my other $40. I'm such a risk-averse finance person.
Taking a seat after being in the smoky casino. I can't stand cigarette smoke - it makes me sick!
And now on to one of the best places I have ever eaten. Adolfo's is above the Apple Barrel bar on Frenchman Street. Talk about a hole in the wall. One thing that did amaze me about NO, is that almost every single place we went was cash only. Even these nice restaurants where we spent $50 - $60 a meal. In addition to Adolfo's, we ate lunch Saturday at a place called Mandina's, which we found by a fluke. It was also excellent!
We found the best music on Frenchman Street. This guy was playing at the Apple Barrel while we waited for our table upstairs. He was pretty good; reminded me of Old Crow Medicine Show.
The trumpet player at The Spotted Cat (far left on the mic) was 82 years old. We hung out here for awhile - I really liked them.
One of the many street bands; these guys were playing up the hill-billy look. I mean, c'mon, the singer/harmonica/banjo player was in a dress and hat and the celloist was barefoot and shirtless. Where else but NOLA?
Another band we heard while walking by that drew us in for a listen at a place called BMC. They were more of a funky band.
We bought day passes so we could ride the trolley's around everywhere. That's how we found Mandina's restaurant. We were riding one looking for a place to eat when before we knew it, we were really out of the tourist area. But there were several other older people who were obviously tourists still on, so I told Justin they were obviously going somewhere so we should follow them. If nothing else, when they got off the trolley, we would too so we'd be in a bigger group until we could catch a trolley back. Well, it turned out they were going to eat at Mandina's, and since we were looking for something to eat, this place looked pretty good - and it was! Apparently, it is one of the best places to eat!
For dinner Sunday night, we made reservations at NOLA, one of Emeril Lagasse's restaurants. It was delicious! I had the grilled pork chop and Justin had the duck. Bam!
And finally, I couldn't leave NOLA without stopping at Cafe du Monde and eating some beignets. So this is the last thing we did Monday morning before getting on the road back to Texas.
I can't wait to go back and eat some more!

You Would think that in school, people would act and become more rounded individuals. But in actuality people just come here to be RETARDS! I'm so serious. It's not even funny. Kids nowdays are retarded...I sound like an old lady but it's true!!! RETARDS!
Now in school you have your basic cliques.
The Norms
these kids blend in and acquire some traits of the popular crowd, they are generally clean,
have nice clothes but will wear the occasional sneaker...but really they are the minority.
.jpg)
The Popular Crowd
Generally look like Ralph Lauren Models and wear Polo. Most of the girls are whores
and wear too much makeup. The guys are Cute, dry, viod of personality...some have the Clap.
These people makeup the smaller minory.Are incredibly stupid. And run the school (as we all know)
...Then there are what I like to call...
The Downtowners ( Urban or Hood in nature)
These kids mohawk there hair...wear all the street brands and astronaunt shoes and date the short girls with the kinky twists. They are amoungst the majority...If not the majority.
The Boyscouts.( "nerdy" or "smart" in theory)
Ahh, they are the most extreme majority. You think, " Nerds aren't everywhere. That's why I can pick on one" But the misconception isn't in the numbers...it's in the proud. So few are true nerds...and proud. So that leads me to my last group
The UsPlacers ( Me and my Friends)
You would think that I'm going to say that we're the coolest batch of kids the school has ever seen.
But we're not! We're so legitly insane with our Indie free will...that many including the norms and the boyscouts DON'T GET IT. We are the artist and musicians and photographers of the school. We provide such culture and we are the kids that wear the Darfur, Che Guevera and Smiths tee shirts with cut offs and skinny jeans and VANS.
We're the filmakers, magazine editors and graphic designers of the PLANET! You would think they would love us. But they simply don't get us. That's why I call us the UsPlacers ...We have no real place in society so we have to place ourselves. Too lofty? I know I'm so corny...but it's true. So when we're watching me accepting my oscar for director, screenwriter and movie of the year you'll look back at this!
