Like a rock (AKA) Climb Every Moutain

 

Night look

 

 

Well I've been incognito and starting to develop a little cabin fever.

 

 

Day look

 

 I just got my wisdom teeth out almost 2 weeks ago and it is pretty painful and since we are on the topic of large teeth creating a massive gaping hole in your jaw. Literally huge teef.  I got to keep those rocks for a keep sake but they hurt and I like to think I have a high tolerance for pain, but you don't see me giving birth or anything.

 

In the meantime during  I'm healing, I did feel well enough to shoot for this dress that is full of rocky mountain dreams and not pain induced hard sleeping.

 

I got it a while back from Modcloth and it is part of the Modcloth line.

 

 Between icepacks and naps I cant tell you how much I pretty much want sushi, pizza , wings and Mexican food.

 

Ill get all my dreams to come true until then I have to just climb my figurative or in this case on my dress mountain to healing.

 

 

I mean really, who else can choose between a day or night look?

Jean Michel Basquiat

 

I got to go to a exhibit which featured Jean Michel Basquiat's journals, sketches, and a painting. It was an interesting exhibit because it was more documentary style that featured his work. It also had a video of him tagging. Jean Michel Basquiat was an artist in the 80's from Brooklyn. He had a street style that was symbolic for wealth vs poverty. It's pretty cool because his works messages can still ring true today with modern politics. I was fascinated with that fact.

This wasn't the first time I've seen his work but it was the first time I felt I could see within his head through his work.

 The really cool part is Urban Decay Cosmetics has released a Jean Michel Basquiat makeup collaboration which is limited edition. Naturaly it was calling to me.

The collection has two eye palletes, a blush/highlight pallette, three lipsticks and three eye liners. I have the three palletes eye and cheek. The two eye shadow palletes are called Tenant and Gold Griot. Which one has more punk colors and one is more neutral colors definitely going with his style of art.

Gold Griot

 

 The covers have his art on the box and they even have a slot on the back that is made for hanging up on your wall for your own small scale gallery of his work.

 Creating art for the masses when your done with the pallete. I say brilliant! The blush pallete is called gallery blush pallet.

Which is adorable. Ah when art becomes your own reality to create. It warms an art teachers heart.

fruit cocktail

 

The weather has been crazy it was 70 degrees one day and then 30 the next. What does that do to a weaker immune system? You guessed it, we got sick.

So I'm going to take it back to that day when it was nice and I was feeling great.

With this little number from Retrospecd. I really recommend that company because they have some serious vintage replicas that have amazing vivid prints.

 

I stumbled onto this pretty fruit bowl of a dress on unique vintage. I got it on sale because I'm a sale stalker and that how I build my wardrobe. Otherwise I could never afford it. Warning they are a pretty penny however shop sales and they are reasonable.

Check out that print.

It has more of a summer vibe to it but hey a girl can will good weather through dresses right. ha
