A Tangent: Monogamy

Lover's Locks from my time in Paris :)

Today I listened to a story on NPR about the study of animal relationships. Apparently mammals are not inherently monogamous. That explains the foundation for the mythstat that claims fifty percent of marriages end in divorce. Monogamy is unnatural to us...so why does it still happen and why do we all want it?
Maybe we're selfish, possessive: I like that that other human and it'll be mine. Forever.

Love is great. And I don't get it.  

Croppin'

$12 crop top from www.forever21.com

Best way to show off without revealing too much? Crop tops are back! Stay away from short shirts that are cut so high that it looks like an adult bib or a boob shade. You can never go wrong with fitted crops like this one :)

Nostalgia

My stay in Orange, France

If you could choose any time in your life to go back to...

Burma Style

Summer Hat from www.rossstores.com 

Satchel from Burma for $10

Tip: If you ever find yourself in love with something like a satchel being sold by a street vendor - bargain, bargain, bargain. This satchel was originally $20 :)

"Street Fashion"

Why do sites like lookbook.nu and chictopia claim that they're hosts of "street fashion". I don't know anybody from the streets that can afford the things that their bloggers wear. I have never seen a woman walk down the sidewalk with a Burberry coat, Chanel bag, and Jimmy Choo's. At least not in my town.

Are Collars still in?

From an asian store Daiso
Cost: $1.50

Basic Triangle Collar

From pacsun.com
Cost: $15.00

These necklaces are my favorite accessories. Collar necklaces go great with dresses that go up to the neck or those trending collared shirts. Wear them now while you can! Like crop tops and high waisted shorts, it'll pass soon like another fad.
