it's about time i blogged again. it has been an insanely busy month, i cannot even begin to explain the stress i have been feeling. but all in all, i happy with the past month and everything i have accomplished. it feels good to see hard work pay off. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i am in the midst of starting my own photography business, nothing huge, just something to do on the side. i have been taking pictures of upcoming bands and shows, some restaurants trying to build their website, but mostly i have been focusing on my artistic stuff for my personal enjoyment. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
additionally i recently began interning at Nineteenth Amendment, y'all should definitely go check out what they are doing. they are revolutionizing the fashion industry a day at a time and i am so inspired to see them fight for what they believe in. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
as a start-up, they could use all the support they can get so please check them out! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nineteenth<a href="http://www.19thamendment.co/"> Amendment </a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
this past month has been filled with shoot after shoot. my career as a stylist is taking off, and i hope i never hit a brick wall. i am learning everyday and falling in love with fashion even more than i thought possible. in the realms of fashion, photography, and art--i working harder than i ever have before to get somewhere. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(but who knows, ill probably end up a stay-at-home with nine kids...and i am perfectly content with that).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
rather than bore with with the written details of the past 24 days, i would rather show you in pictures. hold on to your seats ladies and gents, and place your finger on that scroll bar. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="background-color: white;">i'm a girl of many words...to put it simply, i talk a lot. but i like to think it is because i have a lot to say-- i'm a good listener as well but i enjoy sharing and debating opinions. i love hearing people's conflicting views because it provides a new perspective on how we should see the world. yes there is ignorance in this world, but sometimes ignorance is bliss. i love quotes. i love poetry. i love films. last night was the tenth academy awards in a row where i have cried. i don't know why i cry, i feel so happy for everyone receiving their awards. they must be so happy and their happiness and hard work inspires me-- not to be a movie star but to work hard and do something with my life. they should all be proud. yes, it is easy to say there are so many real heroes in this world that go unnoticed, and that is true. but the men and women who graced the stage last night are heroes in their own way, and i want to thank everyone one of them for that (and their stylists). </span></div>

bonjour my friends! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i hope everyone experiencing this snow-crazed winter with an optimistic attitude--i know it gets tough sometimes. i feel as if everyday is a snow day. i've found myself getting bored and in need of some new activities. all this baking is getting me fat. (though i'd rather be fat and bake than skinny and not eat). i'm back in nh, boston is rather problematic this season. i look forward to the day where grass can be seen again and i can wear shoes without the threat of ruining them due to heavy slush. it's hard to dress cute in such harsh weather! </div>

blogging in a cafe. that is what i do. im enjoying a warm croissant and the most delicious mocha latte the world has ever known on a tiny wooden round table at boston common coffee co. i'm planning my trip to the uk and catching up of some much over-due reading. (naturally its fitzgerald). i find myself writing down quotes more than actually reading. he is just so brilliant. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Well, I can't describe her exactly--except to say that she was beautiful. She was-- tremendously alive". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"And in the end, we were all just humans...drunk on the idea that love, only love, could heal our brokenness" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"I wish I'd done everything on this earth with you"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh Fitzgerald...you make me swoon.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

yesterday was a good day of picture taking, cambridge exploring, and friend hanging. a new (and very lovely) friend of mine picked me up and we went out to brunch at the friendly toast in cambridge; if you're ever in the area and looking for a good place to eat i'd definitely recommend it...just expect a long wait. we then spent the rest of the afternoon taking pictures around the charles and harvard square. </div>

god i love harvard square. i'm apartment hunting in the area. fingers crossed i find something good!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
in the evening i met with my good friend and we just took funny pictures together. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i love photographing her, we tend to be really immature when we are together but that's the fun in our friendship. everyone needs someone to laugh at their dirty jokes and awkward dance moves. it helps that she is a bombshell so photographing her is rather easy.</div>

i'm very self critical of pictures of myself but i love this one. i think it just categorizes me perfectly. messy hair (i never do my hair), awkward stance, and double-chinned laugh. not to mention, (despite my weird thing against outfit repeating) i wear these overalls all the time. they are my favorite.<br />

i'm on a self journey to find inner peace and serenity. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i feel like i have lost a lot of people close to me in the past few months and am now living in fear and being overprotective of those i have in my life now. some for understandable reasons, but others for complicated and misunderstood reasons. perhaps this dependency is because of my traveling background; always moving from place to place and having to say more goodbyes than hellos. you'd think at this point in my life change would be easier for me, but instead it just gets more and more painful. i'm at a good place where i love who i am and where i am at. i have an abundance of close friends and am closer to my family than ever before. but then again, maybe this is because fear brings us together--makes you more thankful for what you have. therefore the closer i get to people the more afraid i am to have them taken away so instead of letting nature take its course i drive them away on my own. i'm overbearing and overprotective in unexpected ways. now that i have this down in words i have no other excuse to try to change it. i'm done saying goodbye before i say hello. and no longer will i hold on to things that need to be let free.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i traveled home unexpectedly a few days ago to deal out all of these emotions. i needed the fresh air, the warmth of a wood stove, and the company of family during these tough and emotional times. whether it be from the high stress and sadness caused by an unnecessary illness implicated on someone so dear to my heart, or how i am missing my one year old little brother who's growing up so fast he barely recognizes me every time i walk through the door, or perhaps its just the fact i have fear of losing people, or the sadness i feel for pushing them away. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i'm in the process of improving myself. due to my currently empty wallet (student problems), rather than shopping (my usual method of therapy) i literally spent 99% of my time these past few days in the kitchen. (full disclosure, there may have been some online shopping done too--arthur george socks you are finally mine). there is something about kneading bread and punching dough that makes you realize everything is going to be ok--even if everything is pointing in the other direction. we all have problems, we all feel stress and sadness, anger and pain. but i have to remember we all have the ability to feel happiness, but that emotion is up to us to find. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
these words are not intended for anyone in particular, though i'm sure some may find closure. but they are meant for me. this is my way of letting go and moving forward.</div>

in my search for this inner peace, i have officially signed up for yoga once again (i used to go regularly until i moved into the city and couldn't find a homey place). i researched and created a check-list of everywhere i want to go/ everything i want to see while in boston this semester. therefore i never have an excuse to dwell on the hardships currently facing my family and i. i also have a two and half month trip to london to look forward to this summer. and above all else, despite how busy i usually am, i will always find time to paint and sketch. i am happiest when i create. </div>

i have surrounded myself with things that make me happy. being a foodie, anything to do with bread and/ or is french pretty much makes me glow. (dont worry, i'm hitting the gym as soon as i get back).</div>

ive learned over the years that a lot of people can't figure me out. i seem to be all over the map. on the one side there's this girl who loves makeup and jcrew and watches sex in the city everyday then there's this free spirit who is obsessed with live hardcore music and does graffiti on week nights (sorry you're finding out this way mom). its like during the day im cuddled on the couch with tea in hand admiring julia child and beatrix potter while reading fitzgerald then at night im blasting metal and drawing skeletons. this past week i've finally decided it doesn't matter. i don't have to be one thing. so here are 10 facts about me, the things i am certain about: 1) i love art. art of all kinds. renoir is my favorite artist but i follow modern day graffiti artists like im going to be tested on them. 2) i love fashion. from vans to louboutins. one day im in paint splatted overalls with vans and the next im in sky high heels and a princess dress. 3) my two favorite movies are return of the jedi and peter pan. 4) i would make bread every day if i had the time. 5) my old fashioned, 50s housewife (in the best possible way) mom is my best friend. 6) if i dont have <i>at least</i> 5 kids but the time im thirty ill be disappointed. 7) i wouldn't be a fun person to be around if coffee didn't exist. 8) i keep a sketchbook with me at all times. 9) i have an abnormal love for anything with the union jack flag on it. 10) id rather see the world and have a family than be wealthy. </div>

boston i have returned! and it feels so good. after a month away from the mfa, i knew i needed to make a trip (this was probably my 15th trip to the museum, don't judge). looking at the fabulous paintings that line the walls always soothes me and makes me feel at peace. luckily the weather yesterday was beautiful so a nice long walk was in order too. i dressed for the occasion. </div>

and here is my night stand. i picked up the print from a street vender in paris and have carried it with me through five moves across countries and states. pictured: kate spade's 2014 planner, i couldn't live without it--it has saved my life numerous times. my journal and alexa chung's "it". fun fact: i buy a cute knick knack from every art museum i go to, its a growing collection. this mug is from the MFA in boston and i adore it. </div>

on a complete side note, lately i have been listening to a lot of keaton henson and i would recommend his music to anyone who likes beautiful lyrics and an soothing acoustic sound. my favorite song of his is "you". and for now i will leave you with poindexter, who made me shiver with these words.</div>

happy new year from birdie & i! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i truly hope everyone has a fantastic new year and takes advantage of this fresh start. rather than start off the new year in the gym with the resolution to lose 15 pounds, i would prefer to start the new year with love and happiness with myself and my loved ones. i have such a good feeling about 2014, for starters i have finalized my plans to spend this summer in london (2+ months in the uk!) let the adventures begin! i also have teamed up with my love and started a photography and art business called fox + revolver (will post launch details soon). and lastly, i get to continue to live in america's historic city! (even though the wind chill on boston's streets should have me locked indoors until may). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
i would love to hear everyone's new years resolutions/ goals. let's make 2014 great! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i am starting off this morning right with good reads and recipe searching.<br />
<br />
i recently helped my film-student-friend out with her final project inspired by andy warhol's screen-tests. you should check it out!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://vimeo.com/81975454">It Stripes Us of Our Parlor: A Collective History (Video Link)</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i thought it would be fun to show you who my biggest inspirations are as well--not only in the fashion world but simply people who catch my eye and allow me to feel immensely inspired.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Yjb-rwAugbA/UrRzz3Df4XI/AAAAAAAAA-M/wrQ2qWYWCyo/s1600/edie.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Yjb-rwAugbA/UrRzz3Df4XI/AAAAAAAAA-M/wrQ2qWYWCyo/s1600/edie.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
edie sedgwick makes the top of the list. i have never been more inspired by one person. she is literally a doll. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lykke li is next. usually i listen to either slow singer songwriter stuff or heavy rock n roll, but her music is amazing. i am addicted to her attitude, sound, and sense of style.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sGrGRT3GGHo/UrR0cRSXYuI/AAAAAAAAA-c/hJnKqMETbgg/s1600/hole.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-sGrGRT3GGHo/UrR0cRSXYuI/AAAAAAAAA-c/hJnKqMETbgg/s1600/hole.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
what would the world be like without courtney love? hole is probably one of my favorite groups of all time. punk meets rock meets feminism meet that red lip stick. (i swear by my red lips thanks to her). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-47hX28yUP9Q/UrR1Y1wNbSI/AAAAAAAAA-k/lsmfaJHmeC8/s1600/alexa-chung-x-madewell.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-47hX28yUP9Q/UrR1Y1wNbSI/AAAAAAAAA-k/lsmfaJHmeC8/s1600/alexa-chung-x-madewell.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and to be more current, alexa chung is my number one style icon. (her book is amazing too). how this girl can look completely punk rock one day but then be the face of a madewell line the next is beyond me, but god i love her for it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
i'd love to hear your fashion icons! i want to find inspiration anywhere i can. </div>

how lovely is this season? besides the constant chill of an old colonial house in nh during decemeber, i do love this time of year. i spent today with an old friend. we enjoyed the snow and literally spent the entirety of today drinking coffee and reading magazine for inspiration for the upcoming season. my spring wish-list is currently under construction </div>

ah finals week. in other words, the week where nothing is real. no sleep, too much junk food, and deliriousness. however, i am quite looking forward to going back to the country for the holidays. i love the peacefulness of winter, and somehow that does not exist in the heart of the city.</div>

my line had an art deco theme. i put my models in very gatsby-esque vintage garments. we had a lovely time. you can't see my whole outfit, i regret not taking a picture to share--the day was so busy it was the last thing on my mind. but my top is 1940s vintage from switzerland. it came with a matching skirt and it is absolutely divine. </div>

i ran away from my problems tonight and walked 3 miles (in wedges) to allston to go to my favorite (but very overpriced) goodwill. they're always wonderful vintage gems hidden in their racks. why did i walk you ask? my feet are asking me that same question. but in all honesty, i needed the fresh air.</div>

we hosted thanksgiving this year and it was a lovely day. not only was it a joyous day of good food and good tidings, but it was also my brother's birthday. needless to say, it was a day full of love and cheer (and cake, pie, and lots of turkey). my parents are both old souls (despite their young ages). they love refurbished vintage furniture, records, pyrex, antique books, farms, and their old colonial home. welcome to our new england, country-style thanksgiving in black & white. </div>

i feel so blessed at this point in my life. as the weather gets colder (and i get fatter) i get jollier. doesn't seem to make sense, but it is true. i love the christmas holiday, and don't even get me started on thanksgiving! we will be hosting thanksgiving at my house this year and i am quite excited. i love cooking and baking for the holidays. i have my pinterest board filled with delicious goodness. </div>

they call this region of the u s of a "new england" for a reason. i find the weather here is very similar to that of the uk. we have many cloudy, rainy, damp days. when i walk into the city with grey skies i hear the huffs and puffs of my fellow locals complaining about how 'dreadful' the weather is. i'm quite the opposite. i love grey skies. i love rain. and i love light damp breezes. i feel the magic in hopping over deep puddles with an umbrella in hand, i feel like i'm in the olden days. i have no idea why that is, it just is what it is. when it rains in new england i just want to cuddle up with my afghan and cozy socks and watch ms. potter with tea in hand (and if i'm being very particular, my cats, birdie & gus, would be by my side as well..and perhaps the wood stove would be lit...and id be able to smell the bread baking in the oven). ah, now i'm craving more rain. </div>

because i am overprotective of my camera, i refuse to take it out during a storm. but i took a risk and tried to take pictures of boston pre-rain. the grey skies are apparent, a storm is a-brewin'.</div>

fall is absolutely lovely. i am so blown away by the colors. it is so nice to step away from the harshness of the city streets and take a stroll through the boston public gardens. its like an entirely different world just a few blocks down from me. a hidden gem. i saw this man the other day and he put a smirk on my face. i could try to explain to you what he was doing but it would be too complicated. he was talented though, quite talented indeed.</div>

i've been having some off days lately so it's nice to appreciate the little things in this world. when i'm feeling low i like to look at art, it takes me away and into another life. i got a call today that i was accepted into a 2 month program in london over the summer where i would be studying and working on my fashion resume. such a lovely pick-me-up. the thought of living in london warms my heart. perhaps ill finally have my opportunity.<br />

cheers!<br />

oh what a beautiful day! boston was unbelievable. its mid-november but feels like august. i love cloudy skies, it reminds me of the uk (my favorite place in the world). today i met an old friend for coffee and photographs. we went to the boston public gardens and spent the afternoon. we parted ways when the water started falling from the empty sky, we knew darkness was upon us. i met this beaut my senior year of high school and we've been close ever since. she lives just across the commons from me. a lovely gal she is. </div>

olivia is wearing a burberry coat (i am absolutely obsessed with it), her jeans shirt and necklace are from jcrew, and her booties are from bp (found at nordstrom). i am happy to announce she is also in love with madewells transport tote so we have the same bag. great minds think alike! olivia is my all time favorite person to shop with; she is a fashion student at fisher college and we have a very similar sense of style. we give it to each other straight, a quality one can only share with a true friend, and i consider this lovely girl a true friend. (plus she shares my undeniable love for iced carmel macchiatos).<br />

i'm next, the weather was so quaint i decided to go with thin tights and a sweater, my favorite sweater to be exact.<br />

im in simple black madewell tights, black suede wedges that i bought years ago, i'm embarrassed to say i can't remember where they are from. my dress is vintage, and my lovely sweater is from jcrew. of course i have my madewell transport tote, and my hat is from an eclectic hat shop in cambridge called goorin bros. if you haven't heard of them you need to check them out: <a href="http://www.goorin.com/">Goorin Bros</a>.<br />
<br />
it was such a lovely afternoon, i even ran into some friends filming a short film by mistake--boston is a small city. i love it so incredibly much. happy sunday everyone!<br />

i have had a rough week, i apologize for the lack of posts. my boyfriend of two years and i broke up and it has took quite a toll on me. the emptiness feeling mixed with an immense load of course work and actual work has been exhausting. i removed myself from the chaos of the city and traveled to nh to regroup. it has been extremely good for me. i spent the weekend cooking and bonding with 4/5 of my siblings (oldest lives in texas). Bubby and i had a star wars marathon, i worked on my little sister's 5th grade science project all day saturday (i know more about a plant cell than i should), and S and i just read books and had dance parties. children truly help you realize what you should be thankful for. i can't wait to have some of my own<br />
(i'm aiming for 9). </div>

i have had an extremely hectic weekend. it is so nice to just sit, relax, and write. i spent halloween night in salem, ma with my good friends. it was quite an experience, in all my years of traveling, i have never experienced anything quite like it. after an hour of sleep i was off to nyc on a day trip to see my love, sophie. i hadnt seen sophie in nine years. nine years! we met in the netherlands at an international school when i was quite young. she is british and a beaut. seeing her was like we never parted ways, she will always be my best and longest friend. </div>
