Currently obsessed with...Rick Owens

kate moss can draw! with lipstick!!!

kate moss is auctioning off this self portrait which she made with, what else, lipstick. Obviously from when she was still with Pete as its inscribed at the top with "who needs blood when you've got lipstick?". Oh Pete

cute but scary

i'm pretty into these gorilla prints at christopher kane


some other futuristic favorites



in other news i took some ritalin for the first time today at work. now it's 5:30 am the following day and i still can't sleep. did fun things this weekend like saw the gothic exhibit at the fit museum which was AMAZING. also saw Intelligence play saturday night at glasslands, by far my new favorite band.

keep for good luck

jane birkin and salvador dali

really creepy old advertisement

"i don't have a heart, i have a stone"

andrew w.k. played at santo's tonight. i was going to go but wound up fulfilled with a bing bang reunion dinner at la esquina followed by drinks at motor city. turns out jocelyn's friend was opening for a.w.k. but that still wasn't enough to coerce either of us into debauchery.

my ceiling collapsed

came home last night to find the plaster from my ceiling collapsed in large chunks and fell all over my bed.
it's september and even though the weather isn't reflecting this i wish i was going to school. why is it that kids these days are way cooler at younger ages? media infiltration? internet? i didn't write 'back to cool' on this by the way, i stole it off of stylesight for the record.

i've had enough

back at my cubicle job for the next month. i actually really like it. i guess that shouldn't really surprise me seeing as how i gravitate towards corners and a cubicle has as many as i could ask for in a work environment. i think if i stayed there i would develop carpel tunnel syndrome though. i'd say my eyes would get worse too but i'm not sure that's even possible at this point.

in other news, i'm REALLY excited for fall to come, my all time favorite. i want to wear a coat and crunch around in leaves and drive through the windy roads in connecticut.

this photo was actually taken in massachusetts but when i was a kid i always wanted to live here.

How many goths does it take to change a lightbulb?

None. They prefer the dark.

vindictive/magnanimous

astrology is weird. i just learned that i always date cancers.

sorry

Sagittarius likes to wander and Cancer likes to stay at home. Sagittarius is outspoken and Cancer is too sensitive. Better friends than lovers. Sagittarius can’t give the security in love Cancer needs. Sagittarius is flighty and makes Cancer insecure. Sagittarius is too independent for Cancer, and Cancer is too dependent for Sagittarius. Sagittarius likes to be on the move and Cancer likes to stay at home. Sagittarius is too blunt for sensitive Cancer and feelings will be hurt. Sagittarius is venturesome and cerebral while cancer is cautious and emotional, and they just won’t understand each other. Blunt Sagittarius wounds sensitive Cancer. Cancer nags and whines and tries to hold on tighter when Sagittarius seeks outside stimulation away from home.

i've got a broken mind and you can't fix a broken mind

waiting waiting waiting wanting

new things

i saw mk tonight at sam's show. the rest of the night got a little weird. i want things that i can't have...always.

so goth i'm dead

the first blog i made was called this, but with no apostrophes allowed in web addresses, it could be misinterpreted as 'so got him dead'. sarah sent me this photo because she thinks i'm creepy. i think she should get back to work.

i feel excited about living again. this feeling is rare and usually fleeting but i'm still treasuring it. in other news, i did not get to meet tyra banks today as expected.

in 3-D

really stoked on my new slow and steady wins the race sunglasses i've been waiting for FOREVER in the mail

(S)LAUGHTER

fuuuuuuuck. i hate comic book movies but batman is my one exception.
heath ledger was creepy, maggie was adorable and christian bale was cool when he took his mouth guard out.

cry baby cry make your mother sigh

Just finished watching control again. Seriously makes me cry every time I watch it. To think that Ian Curtis was only 23 when he died is also a bit more eerie considering I've finally hit that ripe old age. Only, I've done nothing nearly as meaningful, possibly as destructive with my own. In Connecticut at my parents house feeling like a baby. Excited for Sunday funday though...lots of showsssss!

i hate everything about you

ugly kid joe was so cool

dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
seriously. rot in eternal hell.

Babies

lately i've been feeling a little blue. thank god there are munchkins like these in the world to brighten my days. tell me your heart doesn't break when that asian kid screams at the end he doesn't even speak english.

Happy Friday the 13th!

temp work is sweet

i'm working at victoria's secret assisting the vice president this week. it is the sweetest gig and i get my very own cubicle. ahh to be a grown up. when i got home i checked the mail and was delighted to find eric wrenn's b-day invitation. laminated?! i would scan it but i'm too lazy. i love eric for a multitude of reasons but mostly because he occasionally sends me things in the mail.

check out erin wasson being totally cool/ a total asshole all at once.

with alex wang whose resort collection left me pining after this

i also wouldn't mind a set of these

cursed

In and around the seventh grade, break up letters were all the rage. I remember breaking up with some poor dude in an e-mail around that age. What a jerk. So, I wrote a break up letter to myself:

Dear Caitlin,

I'm terribly sorry I had to do this through a letter, this felt better than talking to you in person because I am a wuss like that.. This note will be the last memory you'll ever have of me, I'm bouncing and not lookin back. Don't let it get you all upset inside, I always liked your friend more. It is because of your history of lying problems that keep me from being even remotely interested in continuing this relationship with you.

You'd be much better off finding a person that can deal with wonderful way you Never shaved your arm pits. I might miss certain things about you such as the time you flirted with my father at our family christmas dinner.

I'm glad this is done and we're going separate directions for good. I think you'll find someone to cheat on you daily, and write a letter through text messages. And hopefully we will be incredibly far away.

Love,
Caitlin

You can too. www.dearjohn.com

summer doesn't feel like summer this summer

last summer at this time i was hanging out in barcelona, carefree on the beach with creepy old guys and their balls staring at me.

this summer i'm unemployed and prisoner to my apartment. i want new york to look more like this in the summer. maybe it does and i just don't know because i haven't left the house in so long. i doubt it though.

these guys are amazing

i want a new tattoo

i was researching neopaganism and other satanic folklore last night and found these sweet sketches.

i also have been really wanting to get this little guy on my arm. just need some money first.

p.s. congratulations obama. i love you.

and of course, r.i.p. yves
