Nike x Nylon

Soo I first saw these bad boys in Nylon's Young Hollywood issues. One of my favorite actresses Kat Dennings was rocking these shoes in the photoshoot and I fell in love. These are the limited edition Nike Nylon High Tops, a collaboration Nike recently did with Nylon Mag.


I'm not totally sure what I'd wear them with, but I know I have got to get my hands on a pair.
I guess a trip to Urban Outfitters is now mandatory when I head to sleazy E in two weeks.

Lists

So... I am addicted to making lists. Seriously, if you ever venture into my room, there are assorted sticky notes and random sheets of paper scattered everywhere.
CDs to check out, wardrobe wishlists, books to read... and of course the standard to-do list.

If only this attempt at organization translated to other areas of my life. Seriously, RIP floor in my bedroom. It's been ages since I last saw you.

Buuuut in honor of my obsession with lists, I feel it's appropriate to randomly post lists about whatever category is on my brain at the time. For example..


Theme Parties I Want to Throw/Attend:

1. Harry Potter party - seriously, the only good part of Yes Man.

2. 90s party - just take a look back at some old photos of yourself and you'll know what a good idea this is. I could wear my favorite Pocahontas sweater from 1st grade.

3. horror movie party - there's something for everyone with this theme. True horror nerds can have way too much fun with this, and those that want to skank it up can channel the type of girl who tends to die in the first five minutes of a horror flick . Brilliant.

4. Youtube star party - oh the possibilities... and the quoting would never end. "Is this real life?.."

5. Old Hollywood party - this one is a little more conventional than the others, but I'm kind of in love with classic films and the actors in them. Humphrey Bogart still makes me swoon in Casablanca every time I watch it, and what girl doesn't love red lips and finger waves?

Now in honor of this list-loving post check out the aptly named track Listzomania by one of my favourite bands, Phoenix.

Poppin the blog cherry

Sooo I've been inspired by other blogaholics, and decided to embark on my own blog adventure.

Obviously I had to rock out an oh so witty play on words for the blog title, and this is what I came up with. Dig it? Hate it? Either way, I think it's stuck in the blogspot universe now.

Alrighty, here goes nothing. My first legit post officially starts now! On Friday, I saw the latest Disney-Pixar collab, Up. It was super adorable, chalk full of the grown-up humor and family friendly plot line these movies are known for. Maybe I'll post a review later if I'm feeling UP to it. (haha yes the pun was oh so intentional.)

In the meantime, I'll leave you guys with this thought. How weird would it be if all dogs came with a collar that allowed us to understand them?
I think they'd lose exponential amounts of cuteness if they could talk back.
