inspired by... sheer, knitted, silky, creamy, and holy (hole-y)

 I fell in love with these lovelies...


...So I went scavenging (at my local Goodwill thriftstore) and found these (all together for under $20)!



 



Update: Right now, I'm finishing up my winter break here in SNOWY Atlanta and relaxing... hence the lack of posting.. I am heading back up to Syracuse University this Sunday for a new exciting semester in interior and industrial design.

& Special thanks to everyone including Big Daddy for the motivation and inspirations!

More posts (collected images, new haircut, music, diy) planned and coming verrry soon.

inspired by... georgia

UPDATE on this post:
 i just had a dream about someone commenting on my blog telling me my first few photos on this post looks like urban outfitters. i woke up and checked my blog not being able to decipher whether it was a dream or real life. [im actually constantly mixing up the two.. ever do that?] anyways im not sure what I should be worried about; that this actually looks unoriginal, or that im dreaming about my post like a crazy blogger.

how bizarre. haha :)

a little road trip up the road north of atlanta is all this countryside! some photos are taken in alpharetta, georgia [the little market, and the fields] and some are in the historic part of roswell, georgia at the roswell mill. i've gone to this mill for ten years now and its getting kind of old to me actually, but its really great to go every once in a while when no one else is there..

Q: what little towns and countrysides do you all have around you that you love like these
