Victorian Love

I love anything about the Victorian era... and that's exactly what this outfit reminds me of! The frilly shirt, the lacey skirt, and the cameo just make it a modern victorian ensemble!

Candles Should Inspire All

Saw these shoes in Vogue this month and instantly fell in love. They're Nicholas Kirkwood for Rodarte.

Check out the amazing candle wax design on the heel!candle 04

I personally love candles! There's just something almost mystic about them! This is a photo I took in the cathedral in Salamanca.

Anyway, I hope you had a great weekend! I've got some outfit posts for later this week... then an explosion of nerdiness for you next week! Just wait and see what I have in store!

House On The Rock

Wisconsin 707 Wisconsin 668

This place was so crazy! The house was really built on a rock... it incorporated the nature perfectly! There was also an amazing museum! They had everything from suits of armor (above) to scale-models of circuses to a myriad of automated music players!

Wisconsin 698 Wisconsin 425

Wisconsin 661

A fully automatic orchestra! The instruments really play!

Wisconsin 526 Wisconsin 535

I took over 400 photos in one day here! If you're even in Wisconsin, make an effort to go here. It was worth the steep admission price (although, as short as I am, they charged me the 17-and-under price, tehe)!

Back From Wisconsin!

Sorry for the long break, but I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to connect to our hotel's wireless internet! Anyway, I went to Wisconsin for a quick trip with my parents! I took so many photos! Here are some from the trip!

Tomorrow I'll post photos from the amazing House On The Rock! It was the craziest house/museum I've ever seen (this guy collected everything.... I mean everything)! Hope you had a wonderful week!

Star Wars In Concert

Last night, I went to see Star Wars In Concert! I personally had never seen any of the movies, but just in case some of you are fans, I thought I'd post some photos.
The whole experience was very good, even for a non-fan like me! The guy who voiced C3PO narrated the entire thing, and did a very classy job. They also had a ton of exhibits to look at in the lobby, although in all honesty, it was more fun watching all of the fans in costume mill about.
Not the best photos in the world, but it was very crowded, so I just snapped quick photos to let the true fans through!
Otherwise, yesterday was a crazy day! I drove 6-hours round-trip to school to spend all of four hours there! As soon as I got home, I went to the concert, then I was so exhausted that I pretty much just went to bed! Trying to catch up on a few things today... probably a run to the library is necessary.

My World

I thought I ought to do a feautre of my own home towards the start of this blog! My favourite thing about my house is certainly my backyard! It had this lovely wooded area full of birds and squirrels.

I have a million things to do today, so I'm keeping the post nice and short! Hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July weekend!
