8.19.10 // BACK OF MY NECK GETTING GOOD AND GRITTY


I haven't posted an outfit in a long time. I've been busy trying to find work in California and painting my car (work in progress photo below..), and as a result my blog as suffered. Everyone out here seems to have their own personal style. It's so fun to go out and see so many people wearing styles similar to the ones that I've seen on some of my favorite fashion blogs and have it be normal. There are definitely trendy people back in my home state of Connecticut, but the West Coast style is just different. I love that I can wear prescription-less glasses in California without feeling like a little kid playing psychiatrist and that beanies are in season here year-round.

Here's a shot of my new(ish) painted car. I still have a lot more work to do, but I hope to have the entire car painted by the end of August! I decided to buy a Volvo station wagon before I left for my cross-country road trip. This one's an old Vovlo 940 wagon.. she's a beauty and got me all the way to California without too much trouble (minus an oil-shooting-from-the-engine incident that both she and I have decided to forget about..)
