#4: be more beautiful

Image
via inkblot*photography this is my fourth tattoo. i had it done mirrored under my left collar bone, so it looks like gibberish unless you look at it in a mirror. i liked the idea of it being an open secret that i had. everyone can see it, but only i can understand it. after all, very few people will see my bare shoulders. (yes, i'm a prude) i had it done on monday 19th as a reward to myself for getting through the first half of my senior year. i'd been thinking about it for a while, and i'm glad that i got it done.  do you guys have any tattoo? what do they mean to you?

Soundtrack Saturday: Call Your Girlfriend

Image
have not done a soundtrack saturday post in WAY too long, but i've been having a good week and i felt like celebrating a bit. what better way to do that than with music? i've love robyn as a musician for a long time. her music is amazing, and it's that perfect mix of all the genres you just love. if you saw SNL last weekend, then you might have seen Robyn perform this very song. It's basically about asking the guy you love to admit to his girlfriend that he has feelings for you and leave her, but nicely. a little homewrecker-y, but it's a great song! for this set, I really tried to emulate what little I know of Robyn's style. she's very electro-pop, and she tends to wear a lot glammed-up pedestrian items. think bedazzled denim! i started with the bustier, jacket, and hot shorts. Robyn dances a lot on stage, and she' usually wearing some variation of this. I chose the bright salmon colour because I wanted to translate the song into more commercial fashion

via fashion gone rogue Angelina Jolie by Alexei Hay So, I know that opinions are split on Angelina because of that whole home wrecking thing..... but  I love her. She just has such an enchanting face. I can't get over her. She's positively stunning, and her eyes just draw you in. I can't get over it.
