Go

I was going to post some photos of my head in a beret with a big bow on it tonight, but I'm feeling so damn inspired I want to share some of that with you instead. Lovely! Right?

It's those matching Miu Mius. Love it. (Alix and Louise.)

Laura Marling and Jonsi have filled the silence of my evening and have made it perfect.

Tavi, on how music affects her (specifically Courtney Love's band Hole):

"I just need to know it’s there, and that coiled up inside are my thoughts and feelings and truths, like a reel of fortune cookie slips. It’s nice to have these in another place, and to know these are shared and probably not uncommon. Hearing them can be like when you’ve been sitting in silence and then are startled at the sound of your own voice, but in this case its someone else’s voice, and they’ve articulated what you wanted to voice perfectly, at times without having to be very articulate at all. To confront this voice is to feel free, for at least 38 minutes and 23 seconds. For at least 38 minutes and 23 seconds, these thoughts and feelings and truths don’t make my mind feel like a living room littered with scabs, and I can use them for empowerment."

The glitter under those eyes. (via The Sartorialist)

(Daniella by Vanessa Jackman)

"People want to be liked. We all crave attention and affection and we all reject shame. We want to feel needed, and exceptional and we hate feeling insignificant. We drink so we can be ourselves and not mind it so much. We’re desperate to be understood. We want to know someone else has felt it, too. We don’t know exactly how to pleasure each other. We just want love. In any and every form."

- John Mayer

Jane makes the most beautiful pillow fort ever.

"I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together."

- Marilyn Monroe

The world is a crazy amazing place.
