non fashion-related things that have made me happy recently..


1. Rufio
-the amazing kind of old-school punk band, not the kid with the red mohawk.
"In My Eyes" on loop.

"you're graceful. your grace falls down around me, in my eyes.
you're lovely. your love leaves so easily in my eyes."




2. Learning guitar
- this one's kind of a love/hate rela. because, it's the most frustrating thing i've ever tried to do, but so much fun when you get it.



3. Random non-school/work related art projects and drinking tea out of coffee mugs.





love, ema.

my doppleganger


i've been told i look like a Bratz doll.
my friend alyssa, aka "Princess" nicknamed me "Barbie."
('cause it sounds better than "hey Bratzdoll")
end of story.

love, ema.

spring in feb--why not?

i'm in absolute true love with the spring trends that came oh-so early this year.
it's like christmas in october.

lets start with my number 1--florals.
girls if you don't already love florals, you will fall soon enough..
they are so delicately femme, that they make you feel like a princess, without the tulle.
i do love my tulle, but that's another story.

so what if you're not all about super frilly, girly style? that's okay too!
i like my denim distressed and my doc martens just as much as the next girl, and that makes florals even more fun to play with.
example: i bought an adorable vintage floral silk top, and paired it with some black denim shorts and black leather over-the-knee riding boots. i'll try to remember to get a pic up soon..

basically, florals are a must. whether you rock em with a leather jacket or a cardigan.

next up.. light wash denim.
light wash denim anything! vintage, acid-wash, shorts, jackets..all of it is good.
yes, even denim button-up shirts are back in a big way, for guys and gals.

cherry on top of this fashion cake, is that you can find florals and light wash denim at vintage/thrift stores! happy hunting ;)


love, ema.

back.

so i def started this as an emo blog, for no one to really see except myself, and maybe my co-blogging friend queenieQ.. i've deleted all the emo posts, for anyone and everyone's future conveniences.

but anyways, i don't want this to be a gushy kinda blog, nor do i want to simply rant about douchebags.. God knows i could go on for days. but i'd rather make this blog about things that make me happy.. primarily fashion. with maybe some randoms thrown in here and there.. life needs a little spontaneity, does it not?

love, ema.

p.s. just in case anyone was wondering, i am currently happy. xoxo
