Marooned



Dress: ASOS
Clutch: Ebay
Heels: Zara
Bangles/wrist candy: Thrifted
Black Floral Ring: Georgini

The movement in this dress makes up for the fact that my short stature results in the hem being far longer than on me than it's supposed to be. Hemlines are my enemy. Tailoring is my friend.

I lost my iphone on the train a few days back and long story short, I don't have Find my iPhone, and it's gone. To think that I spent so much effort making sure I Jess-proofed the crap out of it (think stainless steel bumper, real wooden skin on either side, double layer of screen protectors...), my forgetfulness wins once again. Someone should just follow me around when I travel on trains because you'd probably make a killing selling off all the things I accidentally leave behind on trains.



I've been meaning to share this for a while. Terry Urban mixed Biggie with Del Rey and the results are impressive. I think Biggie has been mixed with almost everything...I've even got a Notorious B.I.G. x Frank Sinatra mixtape somewhere in my iTunes library...next up should be B.I.G. x One Direction. I would laugh.

Lucky Struggle (Everyday Struggle by Notorious B.I.G. mixed with Lucky Ones by Lana Del Rey)

I lost my new phone on a train last month, so I know that feeling! Luckily insurance hooked me up with a newer version of it, so I really can't complain.
Love the dress, it looks great on you. :)

My daughter and I when to Doll House to buy a Sherri Lee dress that my daughter was obsessed with. I received no service from the sales staff until I asked. They gave my daughter a few styles to try on when asked what size my daughter would be, she pointed at the dress my daughter had on and said “that size”. I noticed that the dresses had no size tags on them and when I asked the sales staff about that, they got frustrated with me and gave no explanation. So I left the store with a much deflated daughter, went home and ordered the dress online and saved $200.
