I've moved on...
...to a different domain. Why, what were you thinking? The truth is, I just woke up one day and decided it's time for a change—a metamorphosis, if you will; or, in layman's terms, if Britney can shave her head, then maybe so can I? Nevertheless, it's been a rather handsome 10 years of talking to you, and thank you for putting up with all my moodswings and terrible dad jokes. Fear not! The hormonal imbalance and jokes are more terrible on CUBICLE, see you there.

I had my eyes on these MUJI acrylic organizers for a while now – my drawers were starting to look like they were doing their own DIY with all the necklace chains tangling and getting attached to jeans and bracelets snagging and shredding tshirts. I might as well throw in the half-done Rodarte knit dress, maybe it’ll reproduce while it’s in there. What, you didn’t know half-knit dresses were asexual?

Anyway this is me procrastinating. Unfortunately my Prioritizor machine broke down and the warranty expired a week ago so I can’t get that fixed, hot dang. So after blogging I plan to take a bath, then get into bed with the laptop to ‘work’ into the lights of dusk. Yes, I think that’s a good order for this evening.

    A really great outfit. You’re full of surprises. I’ve been eying off some of those organisers too! They are so expensive over here though.

    I just had the similar problem with my drawers. Jewlery was getting lost or tangled with clothes and garbage etc. etc. It was becoming a jungle in there. Those organizers are darling, too bad I only used some shoe boxes to organize mine.

    Love love the shoes btw.

    I never really ‘got’ Muji before, but looking at all of your lovely objects organized in such a concise manner…I think I finally do.

    Also digging the night photography.

    These are definitely your best photos yet :)

    And those acrylic organizers are awesome. I have a big one (it’s floral) – very useful, but the clear ones seem more practical.

    i can never stay organized, i love the look of these clear ones, very sharp, though for me it would just show all the random crap i keep around better. Though yours look very cool with all the black and white

    I like your skirt! And those organizers look lovely, I may need to get some for college next year. Also, I’ve realized that you look like the actress you plays Sun on the show Lost! http://bl.ultramaxx.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/sun.jpg

    I recently bought an organizer for my jewelery as well. They are super handy!
    I love your outfit too, it’s very fresh. Now I feel bad that I trashed these white tights I had in my closet, what the heck was I thinking?

    the clear organisers look amazing! i’m been looking for something like that for ages, my jewellery is always tangled up! :)

    i think it’s pretty amazing you can still do work at 2:40am and after a bath too! i’d be fast alseep…

    Muji…droooool. Everything is so perfectly packaged, sitting in the right spot, lined up all nice. It’s heaven to the organizationally-obsessed. I don’t know if they have the Container Store (check it out) over there, but I have to keep myself from entering that store. It unleashes the crazy in me.

    I’ve never thought of a denim, white stockings, and black dress combo. It’s great!

    Half-knit dresses are indeed asexual. I swear I read about those things in a bio textbook while learning about yeast.

    I love the organizers and how the shadows are amazing!
    And the ring with the unknown thing on it is to die for! (is that a tiger or?? I can’t Identify it hahaha. I’m such a dork).

    I love Muji! I went to the opening of their store in SoHo two years ago and nearly died. I wanted to buy everything, but I wasn’t sure how I was going to lug it all back to Atlanta. I love their simple design concept. I had to do an edit of the interview Theme did with the creative director, Kenya Hara. I love his explanation of the Japanese design concept.

    REally digging the white tights with this outfit. I love your uncanny ability to layer clothes so cohesively~

    I seemed to have missed so many of your posts, I don’t know how they escaped me. I love this outfit, the jean jacket and the shoes are amazing. And those organizers look like they’re perfect!! Haha to the necklaces becoming their own diy, i so know what you mean.

    Those organisers are really pretty. I wish Muji stores here were as big as the ones in Asia. The Hong Kong stores are huge and I love their snacks!

    I really like how you wear those boots in so many different ways!

    I have a shirt quite like that in chambray. Although I don’t tie it in a knot often…

    just because presents are the best, aren’t they?
