everdeen, ever shining (the hunger games)

hey, y'all!!!  i'm back from my break.  so much has happened since we last met.  i'll try to touch on some of the things i find most important as we travel on.  the latest thing is, of course, THE HUNGER GAMES!!!!!  i read the first book awhile ago and finished up the addictive series before february.  needless to say, i was eager to see the movie.  happy to report,i was not disappointed.  this girl, the lovely jennifer lawrence, wasn't at all what i pictured for katniss everdeen.  i thought her face was a bit too chubby and soft for a character who seemed a bit hard and hungry.  angular would have been best (and i rarely say that as a chubby cheek chick myself).  anyway, this young lady was excellent, as was the rest of the cast.  so, on behalf of the hunger games craze, here is a pic of the new inguenue reveling in her newfound fame.

essentials: the trench

it feels like its been raining for a week straight here in new york.  i do understand that it is a necessary part of the cycle of life, but that doesn't make it suck any less.  anyhow, the silver lining on this cool, wet cloud is the need for the trench coat.  i've been seeing so many varieties out in the streets and online that have been inspiring.  of course, i picked out a few to give you some ideas.  i have two in my closet and they both are fantastic (if i do say so myself).  one is a chocolate brown with the buttons a little off center and the other is a lightweight but more traditional trench.  what kind do you have (or want)?

washout

a damp photo for a washout of a day (at least here in new york).  i guess kate proves you can still look fierce, even in the mud.

what i'll be wearing this spring

so this is my spring inspiration.  these are the silhouettes i will be wearing.  for the most part, its loose and flowy.  a-line skirts, mid length as well as mini.  part sophisticated, part rock goddess but always alluring.  i'll also be further exploring the maxi dress and rompers.  shoe wise, i'm planning on some hot platforms, flats and moccasins (also considering the boat shoe).  so, that's my plan; what are you planning to wear this spring season???
