Big post with lots of pics :D


I have previously mentioned that I'm sort of OCD.
I wasn't kidding.

(Oh Howard/Leo, life is difficult ain't it. From the Aviator's wiki page)
The best example?

My bulletin board.


It's sort of like that one in the picture, but instead of ads, my poor bulletin board has cut-outs from magazines.

Lately, I've developed a penchant for getting pictures out of magazines. Old pictures. Vintage pictures. Pretty pictures. Fucked up pictures. Fashion ads. Etc.

And there's the odd pic of a little kid I babysit somewhere.

The sad part is, I'm totally obsessed with it. I've spent anywhere between 15 minutes (at least) to an hour re-arranging everything. I do this every Sunday. (cough no I don't have issues cough)

(Yes, that is an uno card up there. This is so embarrassing. Do you like the Santa card? Mi amigo made it for me. I don't speak Spanish.)

CLOSE UP TIME.

(A postcard of Old Québec. And Marilyn to the right. Pic of Marilyn from InstyleUK january.)

(Random pic of Christie Brinkley's bookcase from InstyleUS February. A random fairy sticker to the left. Random snowflake made by a 3 year old and her mom to the left.Uno card. Sharon Tate to the upper right. Karlie Kloss to the left and on the bottom. More on her later.)

(Vintage Diorella perfume ad from InstyleUK February. Random Little Mermaid sticker. And a pic of Kemp Muhl from October Nylon :D)

(The picture on the bottom is a Studio 54 portrait from a 70s Vogue featured in February's US Vogue. Some random ballerina near the top from a recent Teen Vogue. Audrey Hepburn towards the left from InstyleUK January.)


(Dear Karlie Kloss, I kind of love you. Love, moi. This is an Hermes ad that was on the back of the February? January? Harper's Bazaar. I think.)

I got sort of carried away taking pictures of stuff in my room.

(THE OFFICE CALENDAR=YES. )

BY THE WAY
BEFORE I FORGET

I got this a couple months ago:


I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THIS. Is it too officey for a teenager to wear to sr high school? WHAT TO DO I DON'T KNOWWWWWWWWWW (LMAO at the wrinkles)

Anyways.
On a final note.
A couple years ago, my dad dropped our poor copy of Atonement in the bathtub.

WHY DADDY WHY

James McAvoy looks disappointed. I AM SO SO SO SORRY.

Ahem.
Anyways...

(One of my many) OBSESSIONS.


I need to be up front with you people. (Shit I don't even know if anyone reads this. I DO NOT CARE I AM COMMITTED TO THIS DAMN BLOG)

So, um.

Yeah.

I have a magazine addiction. They make so damn happy. I think the most magazines I've bought in a month was like... a dozen.

It pisses my momma off so much :D

So now my poor tiny room is being assaulted by this ridiculous amount of magazines I've gathered since like, 1.5 years.

My personal favorites you (once again, maybe I'm just talking to myself) ask?
(If you haven't noticed by now, I like making lists.)

-InStyle. (www.instyle.com) They always have so much stuff in their magazines. Thick magazines delight me.
-Seventeen (www.seventeen.com) and Teen Vogue (www.teenvogue.com) K shut up. I'm like a teenaged girl. Our options are limited.
-Vogue (www.vogue.com)/Vanity Fair (www.vanityfair.com)/Harpers Bazaar (www.harpersbazaar.com)= magazines targeted to people slightly ahem "older" than my designated age group. Screw that. I may never ever ever be able to afford like ANYTHING they feature but it doesn't matter. I like their shoots. They're cool. (I'm really insightful, I know)
-Nylon (www.nylonmag.com) Oh my god, favorite magazine pretty much ever. It's like the anti Seventeen even though it's sort of targeting the same age group.

The major thing that I don't like about teen targeted magazines?
The fricking Disney people that are perpetually on the cover. Or Twilight. Which is about equal to me. Selena Gomez & Demi Lovato are okay. So is Taylor Lautner. And Edward Cullen (robert pattinson isn't a real person anymore) is okay too I guess. But Miley and Kristen and the JoBros and all them can go screw.
Much to my chagrin, guess who's on this month's Harper's Bazaar cover?
Miley herself.
Thankfully, they made up for it by photoshopping the hell out of her mug.
