Standing in the Rain with a Monet Painting

I LOVE this picture. Demi Moore is so-so but oh my god do I want to be where ever the heck she is in this picture! She is wearing all Alexander McQueen. Can you believe those shoes lost an award for innovation to a folding plug?! I haven't seen the recent collection in its entirety, but I will never forget the moment I received the text saying that Lee McQueen had passed away. He was truly brilliant.

I have always been that individual that is less than inspired until midterms or tests come up. As soon as the studying is supposed to begin all I want to do is mess with clay, pipe cleaners, spray paint, or cut stuff up. This month's subscriber's cover of Harper's Bazaar has a GORGEOUS Giraffe on it that reminded me of my poor (glow in the dark!) creation from first semester freshman year.

His head fell off because I was too impatient to let him cool coming out of the oven. Ooops. After copious amounts of Super Glue he was repaired, yet lopsided. I still think he is great.

This is my newest tattoo which looks a lot like Steph's fish Charlie! I really wanted it to appear like a watercolor and I'm very happy with the way it came out!

I also spent some time during my first semester of sophomore year creating the "art" that is on the walls of my apartment. It has always been my dream to work in the fashion industry for a magazine (The Devil Wears Prada is pretty much my dream after college, even though Andy was in hell). Although that is one day dream that will probably never come true, I have still kept almost every magazine that I've bought for the past 5 years. Because I couldn't afford real art, or bear with blank walls, my magazines are taking center stage on my walls.

I wonder what I will get into tonight since I'm trying to avoid three tests...
