a disheveled dose of dope

Lately i've been on a Lana del Rey kick. Her music is so empowering, and relatable. Her voice is haunting and her vocal range is incredible. Her videos are amazing as well, they're like works of art, which this historian can appreciate. I think they've been inspiring my wardrobe in slight ways. I've been working in more sex appeal to go along with my usual grunge. Exhibit A, what i wore today...

mandarin monday

 Last week I helped open the new big-box Forever21 store in the Montgomery Mall. Everyone worked amazingly well together despite it being completely unorganized and we even opened a day earlier than expected. The store is beautiful, i recommend my local readers go check it out. The King of Prussia big-box opening is scheduled for October, so get ready for that one too! Anyhow at the opening these mandarin orange platforms caught my eye. I had seen them at the Franklin Mills store about a month earlier during an overnight shift, and I thought they had slipped through my fingers, but i found them again! Only nearly broke an ankle a handful (two handfuls) of times today, so that's pretty good... These are definitely not my norm, but I knew i could work them into my wardrobe just fine. I like that they're a bit unexpected.
