with the moon i run

I love fall, i just wish it lasted longer and i had more time to enjoy it. Pretty soon i'll be wrapped in my northface parka not caring what i look like. Or i'll just freeze my butt off trying to wear my fall attire in dead winter. We'll see.

Soo, check out my new room. It's the beginning and i still have work to do to make it perfect for all of 5 minutes until i find something new i want to change about it. My dad helped me install the light fixture above my bed which reflects designs all over my wall at night- its so magical. The wallpaper decal I did myself which took a few hours but i was very pleased with the outcome. I updated my headboard with new fabric and will soon be sewing new pillowcases. (I will update for sure once i have completed them!) I have a great porch right off my room which is double the size of my room and has been so wonderful to have. I seriously couldn't imagine living anywhere else!

So I seriously fell off the map these past couple of months. Since August 8th, i have:
-accumulated the Essie Fall collection
-moved into my new apartment
-ALMOST finished designing my room
-worked harder then ever on my fashion school studies
-collected a library of some awesome editorials
-begun planning a trip to Italy in May
-had one to many great fall outfits and no time to photograph them

Lately i have been consumed with cutting and pasting these beautiful women on 15x20 illustration boards basically every other night.. oh fabric styling.

The sun is shining (with no alternative) on the nothing new. My nothing new, specifically. (I keep on having to remind myself that it is only part of a much larger picture). The world (rather, huge chunks of my world) is (are) moving on to bigger and better things, riding the wave of life that has washed me to the shore. My mind is always working overtime, and my gears, as fast as they are turning, aren’t showing any signs of wearing out. I feel as though I missed the train that shipped the rest of the world (again, my world) forward. The worst part about it all is I can’t do a thing except carry on; the tick tick ticking of the clock is a constant reminder of everything that I am missing and not actually doing. Time, while chipping slowly away at my spine, is the only thing I have.

and talk about big love

Ikea Ikea Ikea all day today. This process is always expected to be about an hour and ALWAYS turns into minimum- three. Because my boyfriend was so wonderful to me this weekend - took me to the yankee game, put up with all my complaining (sometimes) and moved me out of my apartment in one fell swoop, i being the oh so appreciative girlfriend, get to cook him shrimp scampi tonight and pretty much bow down to him. YUM!

One of my favorite clients is flying in tomorrow morning for a thirty minute styling session. If this means arriving to work an hour early to outfit her in some great looks, I THINK SO!

Well, I've officially moved out of my Williamsburg apartment! It will be missed but this whole anticipation of moving into my new place has me on the edge of my seat. In the mean time i will be living out of my suitcase in Connecticut and commuting to work in the city daily. BUT I will get to see my kitty niece and the boyfriend every night so i cannot complain.
