WW2 Influenced.

Last night I started watching Band of Brothers with Adam and I remembered I had a hat from WW2 that I bought at Sheri's Yesterdaze a few years ago when I was in Florida. With how the weather has been lately, I actually got to go to the Arboretum and it wasn't freezing. Simon and I rode our bikes down there for a beer and I really wanted to take some new outfit photos. The dress I picked out was prefect, the color matched all the colors around me. It was actually the first time I wore this dress too, the tag was still on it... for $2.50.



"Get that elbow up!" -Adam.












Its really nice to get these posted today. Ive really been lacking on blog stuff and with the year ending I didnt want to be that blogger who didnt do a year in recap! With a great era of inspiration, this dress was a success. In other news, Im going on my big interview tomorrow. Ive just been painting a lot more lately and hanging out. Trying to lay low, but failing at times. I had to clean my room today, I couldn't find anything on the floor. This weather too has been way to nice, no snow on the ground. I have a feeling when it does start snowing, there's going to be a nasty storm. Other than that, keep staying lovely! I hope everyone had a great December. Xoxo!

Tattoo Wednesday!

Last week my friend Rus and I finally got together, and I got my saber tooth tiger skull. What he drew was amazing, I was beyond impressed. I had been wanting a skull for some time but couldnt decided on one or who to do it. One night Rus and I got to talkin and he had really been wanting to do a skull with flowers. The tattoo is amazing, I love it. I actually cried a little right at the end, because it was in a really tender spot. I have over 50 tattoos and the last time I cried, it was my third tattoo, which was a 4 and a half hour sitting.

Thank you so much Rus!

Kimmie vs. Ronnie Christmas Trees!

So Adam and I were having a Christmas tree competition. In the spirit of Christmas, we (Ronnie) decided to call it a Christmas trues. You be the judge, I got plenty of compliments on my amazing tree. I will say this though, being there while he picked out all the ornaments and while he decorated the tree, Adam did a great job and he tree was just as beautiful, but in a different way.

Kimmie's Tree.


Ronnie's Tree.


A job well done to us both. Merry Christmas Ronnie.

Ronnie's Christmas Party!

Adam's Christmas party was just as crazy, towards the end, except I didnt pass out before it was over haha.









Wait till you see his tree.

Kimmie's Christmas Party!

As promised, here are some of the photos from my crazy Christmas party. A bunch of us did wine stands, there was some dice rolled, and a lot of booze drinks! It was a wild night.







Shamus wine stand!


Nikkie wine stand!


Ronnie wine stand!









We all had way to much fun! Another successful party at the house of Paul Gore. Ill be catching up with all Christmas photos before the years over! Gotta tie everything up before 2012. Next is Ronnie's party!

A very lovely Christmas

To everyone! I hope you have a lovely Merry Christmas! Drink all the drinks you want, have all the shots you want, and sing as loudly as possible with all your friends and family. Xoxo.

White, green and black.

Yesterday had to have been one of the best days I've had in awhile. I woke up and was looking for new jobs when I saw that Buffalo Exchange was hiring! So from there I got dressed and went to Davis Square. Well, you cant go out for a job like that with out looking stylish, so I wore these amazing green shorts Ive been dieing to wear with a button down. Needless to say I totally have n interview with them next week. Here's some street style.





It was 57 degrees out yesterday! It really doesnt feel like winter. So I was lucky enough I only had to wear a blazer and tights. I have had that blazer for a long time now a friend of mine gave it to me. I also grabbed my D&B bag when I was in Florida last, probably my favorite purse next to my Coach bag.







Ive also really been into buttoned collars. I have a beautiful chest piece, and I like to show it off, but lately... I have been changing my mind on things, something about having a lot of tattoos and covering them up has been appealing to me a lot. Its a very clean look as well. I saw a photo where a lady had her collar buttoned and all these little necklaces, so I decided to try it out myself with a simple little black cat necklace.

The rest of my day was awesome. Adam and I hung out and sang Christmas songs all afternoon while he decorated his tree, which is lovely. I also found a copy of Life Aquatic for a dollar and finally found a vintage cape! Ive been dieing to get one for over a year now, and I found one for only four dollars! Adam's Christmas party was in the evening, that was a lot of fun! I won best dressed, though it wasn't official. So with yesterday's awesome outcome, I am defiantly feeling better about things. Its Christmas weekend! I hope everyone has a lovely holiday! Xoxo

A very Kimmie Christmas tree

After we got the tree up and lighted, I still had to wait a few days before I received my Christmas box from Florida. I had asked for some old ornaments my mom had picked some out and got me some new ones. Mary got me the cutest flamingo ones. I was shocked when I opened the box...stuff was falling out of it.



Some of the ornaments were from when I was a kid, the snowman paint stick, I made that in 1995.


Even Ronnie himself, said I had a beautiful tree.










I even got to put all my presents under the tree!


It took me 5 hours total to put that amazing tree together. I got home late the night my box arrived, like around 10:30, and was up all night working on it. I couldnt wait anymore, I was beyond excited. 3:30 am I finally finished.

So I havent had a lot of blog posts lately. I recently lost my job and have been laying extremely low, and being bummed out has totally taking all my inspiration for putting together something fashionable. Ive been wearing a lot of the same things. I also have got tattooed a lot lately and can only wear certain things because I got both my thys tattooed. Hopefully I will find a job soon, but in the mean time... my friends have been nothing but supportive and helpful. Adam helped me out in a huge way, and I am so thankful for having him around. We've also been watchin TV lately, did you know theres a show just about Trucks! Yeh, there is. Brant and Nikkie have also taken me in and just everyone has been really supportive. While my family is in Florida, they help as much as they can, but its nice to know I have real, good friends here.

Now that my tree has been revealed, its time to see Ronnie's! His party is Thursday, mine was Sunday... heres a sneak peek...

Alandale Farms

Now that I have revaeled my Christmas tree! I can finally talk about it haha. I am having a Christmas tree competition with Ronnie, and I had to keep a lot under wraps. A few days before we went and bought ours, I went with my adopted family Brant and Nikkie to Alandale farms to help pick out their tree. While I was there I was scoping them out and saw that the prices were right if all four of us in the house chip in. Later Simon, Ben and I went and picked out our tree.

I was really impressed with Alandale farms, they were very helpful and we got a 6 foot tree for $40! It was really cool to see all the different types of trees too.






Simon was lovely enough to take my photo, holding our tree! He actually found this one. Great job Simon!


Ms. Jill gave me her tree stand which was really helpful, so I didnt have to buy one. I was looking forward to having a tree so much. Our house really looks like Christmas. Xoxo!

Tattoo Wednesday

Its that time of week again. I think its ironically funny, that Ive started keeping up with this weekly post, and haven't had a good outfit post in awhile. Well I finally got my scimitar tattoo! This gentleman by the name of Peter Chile found me at the Behan and I made an appointment with him. He sent me some of the tattoos hes done and I was massively impressed, which doesn't happen often. I got the scimitar because its one of my favorite Floor songs, so this is now my second Floor tattoo.



Peter did a great job, I cant wait to get tattooed by him again. This will be my fourth weapon tattoo. I have the derringer, the tomahawk, the switch blade and now a scimitar.
