Gelato


I've been eating a lot lately. Like the gelato I had twice today.

I wish my internet connection was faster so I could be more up to date on fashion week. I feel so behind. But I do have a goal for fall fashion week: go to Milan, and stalk around outside the shows. A girl I met here told me a boy she knew got into a show at Milan Fashion Week just by talking really fast on a cell phone outside the building, and pushing his way in.

Tonight I'm dressing like a fashion skank for a Chingy show at a bar down the street from my apartment. Awesome.

Italy

Buon guerno! I've officially been in Florence for two weeks now, and already there is so much to be said.

As for my personal life, I'm living in an apartment with seven other girls and four boys upstairs. It has been a big adjustment, but we are all getting along for the most part. Schoolwise, I am in classes with mostly 20+ year olds. Who knew it would be so hard to be accepted by juniors and seniors...they all look down upon us like we're the dumbest things to hit this hurt. Sigh, oh well.

Now for the best part: shopping! I live right smack dab in the middle of two extremes: Miu Miu and Valentino, and super-cheap (cheap and cheaply made) and tacky clothing stores. On my way to class everyday, I must past Miu Miu and I die a little inside. But at least it gives me motivation to continue with my education.

Yesterday I purchased three pieces of jewelry from a shop called Piccole Gioie. I don't know if it was obvious...but I was inspired by Alexander Wang's recent collection. God, I love him so much. Now if only I could get the messy-rocker eyeliner down.


I can't get enough of that bullet bracelet. It reminds me of Angelina Jolie in Wanted; swoon!

Ciao for now!
