Except when I don't.<br />
<br />
I love living my life full of satire, irony, and trickiness. I am an English major, after all, and my major is centered around figurative language and the art of bullshitting.<br />
<br />
Anyhow, I saw this tee on ShopLunaB.com and I just got a kick out of it, and I knew then that I HAD to get it. It tricks you, it makes me laugh, and if people don't know what Supreme is, then they just think I am a fat ass.<br />

<br />
So I walked into Brandy Melville, saw this shirt, chuckled, but decided not to buy it. I don't really like how muscle tanks look on me, and although the quote was GOLDEN and just calling my name, I decided against it.<br />
<br />
Then I went to Brandy a week later or so, and I realized that I needed this tank in my life.<br />
<br />
Why? Because I can quote <i>Mean Girls</i> like a pastor can quote the Bible. In fact, <i>Mean Girls</i> is my Bible.<br />
<br />
Anyhow, I've gotten a few variations of these comments from this tank:<br />
<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Oh my gosh I love that shirt.</li>
<li>I need that shirt in my life.</li>
<li>I saw that at Brandy and I thought of you!</li>
<li>I can't believe you actually got that.</li>
<li>You.. can't.. sit with us? That's rude.</li>
<li>You.. can't.. sit with us? Oh I get it, because you're cool, oh I like that. </li>
</ul>
<div>
Yeah, those last two have come up more often than you'd think; who HASN'T watched <i>Mean Girls</i>? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I feel like that movie has just recently gotten super quotable on tumblr and just everyday phrases in general, which is weird to me because the movie is old.. but perhaps it's just the fact that our generation is accepting rude satire mixed with Lindsey Lohan and labeling it as hilarious. Who knows!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Either way, this tank is only $20 at Brandy, and if you're an avid fan of the movie, you'll definitely want to purchase it.<br />

"uhhh i can be.. why?"<br />
"let's hang out. i'll give you an incentive. my show that i work on is having a wrap party, meaning celebrities and an open bar. and if we're lucky, dennis quaid will be drunk and performing with the band. come with?"<br />
"...ok"<br />
<br />
My friend from high school, who I have flaked on every chance I have for lunch, works on the set of "Vegas" on CBS, a show I've never even heard of. But I thought, "What the hell, yolo?"<br />
<br />
It wasn't too bad: middle aged folk who were mildly talking shit on some producer or supervisor whom they hated, while sharing a drink with them a few minutes later; the bartenders pouring way more alcohol in these mixed drinks than we did sneaking around in high school; craps and poker tables that allowed everyone but me to win.<br />
<br />
And yes, Dennis Quaid did perform. He's wild.<br />
My friend would NOT allow me to go up to him and say, "I LOVED your work in <i>The Parent Trap</i>. Do you still talk to Lindsey?"<br />
<br />
Anyway, after some drinks and telling these people that I was an escort service just here for the night, we decided to use the set, that was brightly lit for the night, and take some pictures. Enjoy!<br />

Distracting myself from studying for finals.<br />
Brought a book to the sale to pass time as we waited in line.<br />
The turn up was alright; I'm a horrible shopper under pressure.<br />
Bought some different and interesting items that I'll hopefully be wearing soon enough; I'll post them later.<br />

Spring has sprung, and although I've got finals on finals on papers on coffee on dance, I love the weather that spring brings! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hopefully everyone is spending their time wisely doing whatever they need to do; I thoroughly advocate time management. However, if you don't feel good, try to look good and slap a smile on your face. </div>

Spring cleaning, to me, really means, "Hey! Let's look through your closet and find some stuff you haven't worn in a while!" </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With that being said, I found a nice floral chiffon button up from Brandy Melville that hasn't been worn in a long while, and the floral paired with my usual black on black on black really brings a nice look that I like to call "Garden of Black Petunias." </div>

Just hanging out with a friend who is an amazing photographer is never "just hanging out".<br />
My new photography man friend and I went on a little adventure around campus, as I showed him the cool and artsy secret locations, as he messed around with his new fixed lens.<br />
I hate the fixed lens because it's a bitch to take pictures with and it's super close up. For these pictures, he was about 40 feet away.<br />
<br />
Anyway, this is my outfit the day after a 7 page paper was written as well as a 10am to 6pm class schedule was endured, followed by practice from 8pm to 1:30am.<br />
<br />
I guess I wear a lot of black, black, and black. With a hint of black. And maybe some white. But mostly black.<br />
<br />
Top: American Apparel Striped Turtle Neck<br />
Pants: High Rise Cigarette BDG Jeans<br />
<br />
All photos taken by Rooz Riahi.<br />

<br />
Brainstorm, brainstorm, shit. What the hell is 90's grunge? Think, what did you wear in the 90's?<br />
Diapars, velcro shoes, girl/boy scout uniforms, overalls, floral hats, ankle socks.<br />
We're not getting anywhere.<br />
<br />
"The theme is 90's grunge."<br />
<br />
What that REALLY means is what we see as 90's grunge... in 2013.<br />
<br />
High waisted shorts, crop tops, flannels, Doc Martens, thigh highs, denim.. anything really, chunky platform shoes, floral, muscle tanks, band tees.<br />
<br />
Ironically, I also just described a hipster.<br />
<br />
Anyway, the theme was 90's grunge, and it was a blast!<br />

When she heard "90s grunge", I'm almost positive she went to her sculpture class, smoked a cigarette, looked off into the distance, and shrugged condescendingly as the smoke surrounded her in a very artsy manner.<br />
<br />
The day of the photo shoot, I'm almost positive she looked in her closet and said, "Yolo."<br />

I think we have established that 90s grunge entails plaid, denim, and looking "kewl".<br />

As the seasons are changing and we’re falling into winter, street wear has yet again taken an ordinary item and tagged it with swag.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, arial; font-size: 11px;">
Although anoraks are defined basically as parkas (thank you wikipedia), fashion has decided to blend new textures and patterns with the convenience of something that has always been around.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, arial; font-size: 11px;">
Army green and camo? So in right now. On a deeper note, perhaps this is just fashion’s way of telling us that we are all just consumers, we are all blending in together, we will camouflage into the background with all the other hype beasts. </div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, arial; font-size: 11px;">
<br />
<br />
<br />
Or maybe it’s just another trend passing by.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, arial; font-size: 11px;">
I’m not much of an outerwear kind of girl; I love being cold and I hate layers because I feel like the Michelin tire guy, but my cool army green anorak is the perfect thing to throw on with a pair of docs without trying too hard and resulting in a hip look. </div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, arial; font-size: 11px;">
There’s definitely a price to pay in fa$hion, but I guess it depends on your demand, your budget, and your environment. You can find versions of these online, from <a href="http://www.karmaloop.com/product/The-Rainer-Anorak-in-Oak-Camo/299099" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.4s ease; color: #7c8884; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank" title="Karmaloop">Karmaloop</a> to<a href="http://www.runwaybandits.com/product-info.php?cat=Tops&pdtID=2850" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.4s ease; color: #7c8884; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank" title="Runway Bandits "> Runway Bandits</a> to <a href="http://www.nastygal.com/clothes-outerwear/star-spangled-army-jacket" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.4s ease; color: #7c8884; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank" title="NastyGal">NastyGal</a> to <a href="http://www.agacistore.com/product.aspx?id=1218029&cid=1917" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.4s ease; color: #7c8884; text-decoration: initial;" target="_blank" title="Agaci">Agaci</a>. You can literally find these bad boys anywhere.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, arial; font-size: 11px;">
Whether it’s a fashion statement, a convenient piece of outerwear, or an interpretation on consumerism, I’ve fallen for it. Add a light hoodie or a beanie and you’ll take on that Bay swag instantly, like me.<br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica, arial; font-size: 11px;">
And if you’re in luck, you’ll find one for $18 at American Vintage, like I did.</div>
