the need to dress up
It's interesting, when working at the jewelry store I worried enough about what to wear, I wore jewelry more as a gesture.
Now I'm working where I have a strict dress range, it's like being back in a school with a uniform--the touches you can put on it are essential.
All this to say, I need to go shop for a flattering color of nail polish.

Magical Madoka
rhinemouse recommended Puella Magi Madoka Magica (or, as subtitled in Japanese, Magical Girl Madoka Magica) and I realized, okay, I'm almost out of Maid-sama! episodes, lets look at whether Crunchy roll has it.
Wow, Rose. I deserved the agony of a new thing on my roster of things to watch, it's karma--but this is a much better anime (even just in the first ( Read more... ) -

a journal about today, centering mainly on shoes
Skip-90 is where I ended up with my LJ FList today.
I think I basically have another 20/40 to catch up on from today, but heh. Whatever.
I ran around town today in my Union Jack platform boots, unusually showcased since I was also in cut-off shorts. My ancient, still-favorite black button-up shirt was my attempt at dressing up so they matched, but I ( Read more... ) -
Cary Fukunaga's "Jane Eyre"
I'm sure I'm the last one to have anything to say about this, but

I gotta get this off my chest, though I DO spam Tumblr with my squees
City Hunter: watched ep 1 and 18 to forreal watch the last two. I MUST. Not tonight, though.
it's interesting, to review it. It had such clear colors, and clean uncomplicated acting. (not nuanced? just clear) which served the story so well.
