Nemo Found Us

In regards to the title of this post....I just had to. I really, honestly couldn't help it. I've been itching to use that since before the storm actually hit us. As a matter of fact, Nemo motivated me to do a post.

Cream (Off-White) vs Red

Contender #1

Contender #2

As I was going through my pictures, I realized 99% of them were side poses. I guess i got a little carried away trying to show off le boots...oops! 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As some of you probably realized I haven't put up anything for well over a month - probably two months. I apologize for le absence and a simple explanation for this extra long hiatus is.......I am the laziest person in the whole wide world. I honestly spent most of my winter break catching up all my TV shows, sleeping, eating, and going to Tango class (which happens to be my new favorite thing). I was such a lazy bum. I spent most of my days in my pajamas with either a jar of Nutella or a box of Ferroro Rocher at my side. Anyway, school started last week and that got me out of that schlump. Well, then Nemo hit and provided that extra motivation/inspiration I needed to put up a new post.

Nemo was really mad that we lost him because he came and dumped over two feet of snow on Boston. It was pretty great because we got a snow day and since it was only the first week of school I didn't had anything to do except watch Spartacus all day (WATCH THAT SHOW!!). Personally, I'm not a big fan of snow or anything cold so when it was all over and the entire campus (even the President of the school) went to the snow ball fight (which apparently was epic) I stayed indoors watching Spartacus and reading short stories from the "Dubliners" by James Joyce. 

Wow! I just read what I wrote....I really have no life. *SOBS*

On that note, I must return to my books but before I go, I will leave you with my favorite Tango video. Did I mention I'M IN LOVE WITH THE DANCE!! The best three hours of my week are when I'm in Tango class.

Have an amazing week!

Happy Valentines day (in advance)!! <3<3<3<3<3

Meet Vanya

 OKAY so I dyed my hair. Every year, right around this time, I seem to have a strong urge to change the color of my hair. I have been saying for the last FOUR months or more that I want to go REALLY dark and every time it came down to it, I would chicken out. I don't know what it is about dark hair that scared the shit outta me. I feel like I might be have been more willing to go blonde (although I'm not too sure it would look good on me). But i did it! I went through with it.

Ok....so the truth is I actually kind of chickened out at hair salon. I said I wanted Black and then changed my mind to dark brown and then a lighter dark brown but then the hair stylist ended up doing a really dark brown which actually looks black. I saw it and I was like HOLY COW! What the hell have I done to me! AAHHHH! (freak out some more) and then I go back to my room and stare at myself for what seemed like hours, skype calling friends and family just trying calm my ass down. After maybe an hour, I was okay and then I started to embrace my new hair. I feel like a new, different person and so today I would like to introduce my extreme brunette Russian assassin alter ego, Vanya. She only comes out when I'm drunk so aside from a dark haired Marcie, you won't see Vanya on a daily basis but just know....she's there..watching O_o lol

Now back to my look. This look was actually inspired by that Givenchy look in a recent post "Animalistic". That Givenchy sweater costs about $500 and after a few days of obsessing over it, I decided that a piece of fabric with a Rottweiler printed on it was not deserving of my $500 (This is not to say that I think Givenchy is horrible, I LOVE that sweater but I would much rather buy more than one sweater with $500 lol). So I found a roaring tiger sweater at Zara and figured it would be an awesome substitute (Score!). What do you guys think? I also think I like really animal-y stuff......i dont know why lol Oh and did you notice my red wedge sneakers :)

Finally, I would like give a huge birthday shout out to my sister and friend Somi. She is an amazing, beautiful, talented, driven and oh-so-freaking-sexy woman who happens to have a very special place in my heart. Love you sis!

Okay I need to get back to work. Goodnight my lovelies. HAPPY MONDAY and have a good week!


Yours Truly,

Vanya
