jorts

 

I’m a big fan of jean shorts. I think I wore them to a semi-professional lunch meeting once. Which is exactly why when you hold my name up in a mirror it reads back, ‘totes profesh 24/7.’

And I happen to believe that the best jorts are homemade, with love. So here’s a fun demo from Glamourai on how to cut your jeans into jorts and ideas into dreams.

Enjoy!

P.s. the last time I hyperlinked on this blog it accidentally took someone to a youtube of a Lion King clip. Woops and welcome to my life and also, how amazing would it be to always hyperlink to ridiculous, off-topic things?

Girl Funny

Call me a bra burner.

Call me a revolutionary.

Or just save time and call me a hero. Who burns bras. To save energy. So I guess call me ‘earth-friendly’ too.

But I think girls are funny. Just as funny as boys. Also, boys go to jupiter to get more stupider. Just sayin’.

Deep political/existential/meteorological statements aside, I just want to pimp a few new blogs I’ve found lately where the writing is LOL. ROFLOL, even. (this statement proving how much like a 15 year old I am even more than my music taste.)

1. Joy the Baker

a. she has really pretty pictures

b. she can clearly out-cook me (note: this is not difficult, but really, she looks talented.)

c. she starts posts with morsels like, “Once upon a time, as a young youth with frizzy hair and giant teeth, I went to Disneyland with my family.”

d. you will laugh ‘n learn. And anything connected by an “‘n” or “lil” or “ol” is good by me.

2.  Better After

a. you will spend 45 minutes the first time you go to this site. And every time thereafter. It’s that potently potable.

b. love the collaboration. Because ya’ll know me, I’m very pro-collab (and, as a refresher, pro-suffrage)

c. she says things like, “…don’t be alarmed, I’m pretty sure this is a fake cow skull, unless it is an unknown species of very, very tiny cows, but I think we are safe. That would be some tender beef though…”

d. you will be inspired to makeover your bathroom/couch/roommate’s armoir.

I think I’ll stop at two because I blog what I want and two is a nice number. A pair. A BOGO. A 2-fer. Cat eyes. Wait.

Ok bye!

Weekend Inspiration

I’m no fashionista. And even if I were I would never use that word. Or anything ending in “ista.” Also, ridonkulous, bazillion, or fantabulous.

BUT. I like pretty.

And so this is the perf way to go into the weekend. All tribal and shiv.

You’re welcome crop toppers.

On my mind: Baja just forgot to give me my guacamole and you would have thought I lost a beloved pet by my reaction when I got home and found it missing from my order. Oops.

Listening to: Robyn’s new song. Still. Again. And also, again.
