Unzip my Heart

While I was eating lunch yesterday, our apartment lost internet which is sad, but happens at least once a day. Not knowing what else to occupy my meal time with, I decided to watch Style.com fashion shows on my iTunes. Ironic, yes (models...mashed potatoes...)

Any how, one collection that really caught my eye was Versace Spring 2009. The clothes were structural, yet feminine. But what really made me gawk were the hearts formed out of zippers sewn onto the dresses. I always love hearing the concepts behind a collection, but that one is great.

How much longer until spring? I want to make a heart zipper dress!

Another gloomy, gloomy day. I am very much looking forward to milder Texas weather (nine days!).

Studying for finals has commenced. I need to start packing for the Amsterdam trip, whose transportation is looking very interesting at the moment: multiple buses and trains, and a plane ride. We are also now staying in a hostel. Mmmm, to be a college student traveling around Europe. My first weekend away from technology in...a very long time.

Protesters this morning. I am pretty sure there just happened to be a bunch of protests around the time of my midterms...

Mmm, panettone.

Today, being the Immaculate Conception, was a national holiday here in Italy. Or so I thought...all the stores were still open and the streets were filled with people. The only thing holiday-ish about today was that there were no classes at school! I woke up late, finished watching Alice in Wonderland, and feasted on my mini-panettone which I added honey to.

This weekend=pure laziness. It was my last one here in Florence (since I will be in Amsterdam this coming weekend) until next semester, and the majority of it was spent in bed watching movies and t.v. shows. Tomorrow begins reviews in all my classes for final exams, then Amsterdam on Friday, final exams next week, Texas next Friday, and Connecticut the Friday after!

It was really cold out today. I wore two layers of tights.

I went with one of my classes to visit Enrico Coveri's design studio. It was pretty amazing, and made me want to start wearing tons of bright colors.

The End.

No need for color

I bought that mug at the aquarium last last weekend. The seals were a-freaking-dorable. And it is quite perfect for green tea when I wish to be healthy and coffee when I wish to get work done.

Today I started researching for my trip to Amsterdam next next weekend.
I. Am. So. Excited. But really, I want to visit the Heineken factory, and Anne Frank's house, and the tattoo museum, and the cannabis museum. I don't think that will all be possible in 1 1/2 days, but we shall see.

P.S. Every time I look into your eyes I see the future.

Today I went to Italian class, then did some more food shopping, began to watch Project Catwalk, and now am going to take a nap since it is raining out.

I got this pink balloon a few weeks ago when I saw Twilight at an Italian cinema. Gotta love free balloons!
