Christmas list & warm wishes

The time is finally upon us and my dear how soon it came. Once again it is that time of year for celebrations, family, and gifts to those you love and from those who love you.

This Christmas is feeling very melancholy thus far. No one, not even I could have predicted all of the changes I have been through in 2011. Left a job, got a new job, left that job and happy with the current endeavor I have now. New friends have come into my life while a few old ones have distanced themselves.   Overall, although 2011 has certainly not been one of the worst years of my life, I am happy to see Christmas and feel comfort in a new year approaching.

But before I get too mushy and analytical about the new year, lets take one holiday at a time and enjoy Christmas. I wish everyone of my blog followers and people who have come across this crazy little blog I call mine a very, very joyous holiday full of love and warmth.

Here is my 2011 Christmas wishlist:

Merry Christmas my babies.

i-D Dreams & Aspirations Issue

i-D magazine has it! They have it bad! The right idea for a incredibly mod pictorial that is! There is not one thing I dislike about this retro, fantasy -laced photo shoot. The styling is superb beyond belief, the shots done in black in white with just a flash of accenting color is devilishly chic, and the clothing I pray to the clothes gods that one day I can be blessed with such fantastic fashions! With the oversize accessories, heavy mod vibe, and the doll like features of the model, this pictorial looks like it could have come straight out of  the Swinging Sixties, if the Swinging Sixties had happened in Wonderland. :)
