HAPPY NEW YEAR!

My new 70's caftan

A gift from my mother; it goes perfectly with the dress!

It's 11:24 and I, Sarah Schuette, am spending my new year with my cousins and little sister. I was originally going to a concert, but it was sadly cancelled so I decided to put on my new Africa dress and enjoy a night in before our party tomorrow. Sorry the lighting's not very good, I used my sisters' camera since my electronics have been running away from me this week; phone, camera, the list goes on. New year's resolution? Find them!

Rest In Peace Maggie

Hello lovely readers. I was going to do a post today, and I will do so later, but right now, I just wanted to say how sorry I am to my friend's family, who lost their beautiful little girl, Maggie, to a heart condition. She was 5, and she passed away on Christmas. If you don't mind, please try to take a moment out of your day to count your blessings and tell someone you love them, because you never know when it will be the last time. Sorry to make this dark post. I promise something more cheerful is on the way.

See you next year

Just a few photos of my adventures in New York before I leave for Mexico! I know, it's hard jet-setting around the world, but someone has to do it.

If you get the chance to hit up the Lower East Side in NYC, do it. I cannot wait to be back on Ludlow and Broome, eating at Katz's Deli (pictured), wandering around Assembly (pictured. I love the way the clothes are strewn around the room, as if it was your own closet) and trying on clothes at TG-170 (more on that later). But the best part of New York is coming around the holidays, there is just so much cheer and spirit you would swear that it's the North Pole.

But almost better was Bloody, Bloody Andrew Jackson. I cannot even begin to describe how magical and incredible it was. The photo above does not do it justice. A completely new theater experience. Below it you can see my fangirl photo with the lead, Benjamin Walker. Yes, that enourmosly dorky grin hurt.

Merry Christmas! I hope you have a wonderful holiday season and a happy New Year! See you in 2011!

Adios Amigos!

For most Trevians, winter break begins after today, but for me, it starts at 3 in the morning, riding to an airport where a plane waits to take me and my family to Cancun! Myan ruins, the ocean, horseback riding, WARMTH! (just saying, I absolutely LOVE Winter, but the temperatures here in Chicago have been frrrreeeezzzziiiinnnggg) Now that Dance Day (our schools' annual major dance show which we both participated in) is over, and (most) of my papers are completed, I can get excited for some major fun in the sun. Happy holidays everyone <3

Fashion techie

So, as you may or may not know, I'm fairly very tech-savvy, but when it comes to Apple products, I'm lost (even though I'm actually typing on one now). Thus I don't know if you've all heard, but apparently you can now download Vogue issues to your iPad. The above is the 1st one, UK's December issue, and I'm still conflicted about whether or not I like that or not... I mean, 1/3 of the reason I buy Vogue magazines is because I love the feel of the pages, the free perfume samples, and (only if it's exquisite since I hate to tear up my things) being able to cut out my favorite images to put into scrapbooks, collages, etc. ON the other hand, I think it's great that Vogue is attempting to be more Green and waste less paper, and now I might be able to convince more people to indulge in this splendid magazine. What do you think about being uber technologically advanced?

Just a Little Addition

the embedding was disabled on the actual music video, but I promised my sister I would post this since it was all too perfect for the NYC/Paris post; go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2OLBhVua5c to see the actual music video; I love her dress! xoxo, CB

Corsi

Every single outfit in this video is perfection. J'ador the sequined jumpsuit and the long a-line circle skirt with lace bra. Note to self: Go to a holiday party and suddenly transform into Leighten Meester. At least this way I can walk around in a bra and not get strange looks. Oh wait, that's never stopped me...

Happy Holidays!

Paris Vs. New York

While browsing Topshop's wonderfully chic blog,
Insideout I came across a post about Vahram Muratvan, who had created pictures that compare New York City to Paris. I loved it, so of course I had to share!

You can even shop for them at http://www.society6.com/studio/parisvsnyc

So, what's your favorite?
