The weather has dipped below 70°, school is in full swing, and I can finally wear my boots and cardigans again. All is right in the world!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If you know me at all, you know I'm in love with bright colors, and wear them despite rainy or wintery weather, when the universe seems to have this power over other people, telling them to dress as dreary as the weather is. It makes no sense to me, really. Why wouldn't you want a bright yellow umbrella to brighten up a rainy day? What is the point of a boring, black umbrella? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then again, I've been recently obsessed with darks -- rich, "fall" colors -- and wonder to myself if this relationship with brights and prints and color on color can last forever. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As a supporter of open marriages, perhaps I can convince bright colors that I need to have an affair with the dark side, but that it won't mean that bright colors aren't my one true love.</div>

Still trying to find a good place to take photos in my new apartment - the windows are tiny and not so plentiful, so lighting is hard, but we do have a backyard, so when I have time and a buddy, outdoor photos are totally happening,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Stay tuned for before and afters of all my apartment decor projects!</div>

Things I became obsessed with this summer:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
below-the-knee skirts</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this skirt (which is even more neon in real life, I promise)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
flatforms</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
neon</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
this watch</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
buns</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Haven't taken an outfit picture in almost two months! But I'm heading back to Providence tomorrow to kick off SENIOR YEAR with a BANG so I'll be taking more outfit pictures, I swear! (And hopefully I'll have stories to share and some real writing to post.)</div>

How do people come up with creative names for dishes? I'm not a chef or even a cook - I mostly just throw a bunch of things together and call it a day. But since the apartment I'm subletting is so well-equipped with the quintessential white bowls and plates necessary for food photography, I thought I'd give it a try.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had some leftover turkey from our turkey sliders, so I cut them up into bite size pieces and sauteed them with some mushrooms and the frozen grilled corn from Trader Joe's. Then, I added balsamic vinegar, dijon mustard, tomato sauce, and white wine to create a sort of gravy.</div>

Yesterday, my roomie and I ventured to <a href="http://www.brooklynflea.com/">Brooklyn Flea</a> in Williamsburg, shopped around at <a href="http://www.artistsandfleas.com/">Artists & Fleas</a>, and then did some thrifting at <a href="http://crossroadstrading.com/">Crossroads Trading</a>. All amazing places to shop, especially Crossroads Trading, where the clothing is great, and the prices are actually affordable.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The one thing I miss about suburbia is the endless amount of amazing finds I always take home with me from Salvation Army. And for extremely cheap prices. But in cities, large ones like New York, and even smaller ones, like Providence, the Salvation Army stores are too often ransacked by hipsters and vintage store owners, leaving nothing good for the rest of us who don't mind browsing for hours to find that one amazing sequin blazer for only five dollars. I refuse to spend eighty dollars on a dress that I could easily find for four dollars in my hometown.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Does anyone know of a good, real cheap thrift store in New York/Brooklyn?</div>

And actually, the hotter it gets, the more I'll wear my favorite blazers and jackets and cardigans, because it'll be so chilly in our air-conditioned offices.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My roomie and I did some collaborative cooking tonight and made extra delicious turkey sliders, with caramelized onions and mushroom relish. And lots of sriracha on top, obviously.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There was the juicyness of the turkey, the sweetness of the onion, the sourness of the lime juice (in the mushroom relish), and the spicyness of the sriracha. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Today I'm black and white all over in honor of my monochrome friend slash co-intern who only wears black and sometimes other neutrals. And it was so hard. I just had to throw on a neon necklace and put on some bright lipstick. SO HARD, I think I'm going to have to over compensate for the next week and wear CRAZY COLOR.</div>

Today, I:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1. Had a pretty good day at work.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
2. Got to leave from work early......so naturally I bought a pair of shoes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3. Went out for dinner and drinks with friends at a Korean fusion/bar in Alphabet City called Fat Buddha- I wouldn't recommend it for dinner but maybe for drinks later in night- it's got a cool vibe and they play great music.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
4. Got cupcakes at Georgetown Cupcake Soho! Best cupcakes in the world, duh.</div>

I really missed working at Hearst Tower - it's amazing to be back. It's a beautiful building, and I got to have lunch with my friend from my internship last year, and my boss is so nice, and I hope I get the chance to work there for real when I become a real person.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's oddly cold for June, but at least that means I won't be nasty and sweaty on the subway platforms, at least for now. And it's the nice kind of cold where any clothing will do - it's (mostly) warm enough for all-out summer clothes, but it's cold enough for winter clothes too (a guy in the elevator today was wearing a puffy coat!).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And, today, the <a href="http://sweeterynyc.com/">Sweetery</a> truck was giving out free desserts to Hearst employees at lunch time! It was amazing - cookies and mini cheesecakes and other yumminess, all made with Maker's Mark bourbon. </div>

I moved into New York on Saturday with the help of my dad, who drove me down from our home upstate, and carried my heavy things up to my 3rd floor apartment, and took me grocery shopping. (Thanks, dad!) And of course, we went to Flushing, Queens for dinner (and so he could buy lots of Asian liquor to bring home).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We ended up ordering far too much food for just the two of us, so I brought home the leftovers. One was a lamb dish, seasoned with cumin and cilantro. So salty and overseasoned - perfect to make into soup.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>HOW IT'S MADE</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
boiled some water</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
threw in some noodles (spaghetti) and the lamb</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
added a touch of soy sauce and a lot of sriracha</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
wilted some mixed greens into the broth</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cook until noodles are done!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
add more sriracha, duh.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
eat. with chopsticks.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't graduated from college yet - I still have another year - but I stuck around for Senior Week and Commencement this year to work, hang out, and most importantly, say goodbye to my favorite class of '12ers. They had one final week to party hard, make mistakes, and check off all their unfinished college bucket list items, and then suddenly, they became real people.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On Saturday, I moved in to my summer apartment in a beautiful Brooklyn brownstone, and it's crazy to think that in a year, I'll be moving to the city for real (I hope). I can't wait to be a real person. I have plenty of goals in life, but the most important one is to live in New York. I can do any number of things, get married or be single, have kids or don't, be rich or poor, whatever, but I <i>have</i> to live in New York. That part doesn't change. I'm dying to graduate so I can finally move here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But of course, I'm also excited for senior year and all that comes with it. And this is my last real summer!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I start my summer internship tomorrow, so real outfit posts are coming, I promise.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Congratulations to the class of 2012!</div>

<b>OCCASION </b>none/class/field trip to local painting studios</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>DETAILS </b>Old Navy dress, UO shoes, thrifted blazer, freebie necklace</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>THOUGHTS</b> something about this dress was twisted weirdly so i had to keep adjusting it, but overall, this was comfortable - all these pieces are common go-tos for me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, in painting class, we went to check out a couple studios of local painters, <a href="http://www.martinsmick.com/">Martin Smick</a> and <a href="http://www.nitsrik.com/">Kirsten Lamb</a>, (Brown and RISD alums!) which were both really awesome to see, and it was also cool to meet the artist and hear them talk about their work and especially what it's like to actually be an artist as a career. I highly recommend checking out their work! </div>

Somewhere between middle school and now, I forgot about jewelry. But I LOVE jewelry. I used to wear earrings every day without fail. But that was before I even turned thirteen, and I must have gotten lazy or boring. But I missed them.</div>

My mid-semester (or whatever) resolution is to be more daring in how I dress. Test the boundaries of what I can and can't pull off. Dress like a fashion editor. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That goes for jewelry and accessories too, whether it's piling on necklaces/rings/bracelets, or wearing crazy shoes/scarves/hats/bags, or investing in some gorgeous statement pieces.</div>

After majorly ditching this blog for the last 3 months, I had a serious itch to watch my fingers dance and hear the clacking of a keyboard again. (As if I even wrote that much before.) But I miss this whole blogging world - I've been away from it for so long, hardly even checking my Google Reader this whole time. </div>

What have I been doing? The first half of this semester has already come and gone (I'm on spring break right now!) but I've been doing a pretty bad job of documenting it:<br />

This week, I'm relaxing, cleaning, watching TV, and making art! So excited.<br />
<br />
I'm also working on building up my jewelry collection - photos to come :)<br />
<br />
missed you!<br />
