one size does not fit all

I'm sure you've all read about and seen the images of the new V issue, the "size" issue. But we may not all agree on is whether or not the magazine did Crystal Renn any justice or whether it actually succeeded in trying to say that size doesn't matter. Sure, featuring her in this spread is a step forward in the right directions, but as Jezebel points out, why the comparison to a "true size" model? If this issue was truly about how the difference between the two girl's sizes isn't an issue, then making them pose side by side, as if comparing the two, defeats the purpose. So, here is the spread one more time, just in case you really didn't see it, but I only posted Crystals pics, because well....she's the only reason I would care to see this anyway. Enjoy and discuss.





a little goes a long way




Still hung up on fur.

I know I need to get over it, especially with the season not too far away from disappearing, but I want my fur! With the belly getting bigger and bigger every week, I sure do hope that this look makes a reappearance next year. Something tells me it will. Here are examples how a little bit can go a long way. Which is a good way to transition into spring looks.

what the fuck!!!

So, I go to Target yesterday in hopes of, like every other girl out there, scoring myself a piece of the Rodarte pie. Well, wtf, low and behold, they are practically out of everything and they didn't even carry half of what the collection included.

But why?? It's not like Salinas (where I was at at the time) is full of fashionistas (trust me, look up the location). Well, because this Target decided to put everything out on the 18th. Thanks alot, fuckers.

So, I go online, but everything is sold out! yep. Practically everything.

And if this didn't piss me off enough, check out this story. Ugh!

(I did however buy the beige tulle dress and the "lace" tank one, see post below)

The only kind of trees for me these days

While driving back to Sacramento from my aunts house during the Thanksgiving weekend, I saw spot after spot selling Christmas Trees. Rows and rows of trees stared back at me as we drove past and a sick feeling of knowing that these trees could have been left alone to grow and provide oxygen to our planet sat in my stomach the entire way home. So, when I saw this post from my friend Jamie, I was so thrilled. Here are a few alternative Holiday Trees. Enjoy.

Okay, here ya go. This goes out especially to Mel & Jen (who still need to get a facebook!) and Ixchel. Enjoy!!





Everything I can't have

Every time I go shopping, it is the most disheartening event of my week. Everything I want to wear makes me look absolutely ridiculous due to the 24 pounds that I have put on (yep, and it's only gonna go up). I can't wear fur, or anything that resembles fur and leopard print only seems to come in items that don't fit me anymore.

I'm still going to try to find tops with cute shoulders (as seen in a few here) and I'm still going to try to do something with my hair. In the meantime, I will gaze at these beauties and wait till Julian is born. I've been meaning to post these for a while, so they're pretty old.


I love the combo of black sheer with the shoulder details.





More shoulder detail. This is really the only look I can go for right now, but it's still pretty hard to find a top that actually goes over my belly.

Big sweaters! This is only something I know I can wear. But finding that right that both hides and accentuates my pregnancy just right is pretty hard to find.



Not that I would ever cut my hair like this, but I love love this girls hair.




And her hair too. I used to have it shaved on the side, but after growing it out for almost two years, I don't know if I'm willing to go shaved again. It just took so effin long to get it this length!
A little crunchy, I know, but it looks so warm and comfy. Two things that are at the top of my wardrobe priority right now.

rodarte steals my heart

Oh, Rodarte. How I wish I could wear your clothes when they come out in a few weeks. But, sigh, I will be massive and have to wait till April to flaunt around in these gorgeous outfits. For now, I will gaze and gaze at the cuteness. *Sigh*
