Things We Didn't Buy (but maybe should have?): HATS Edition.

Me and hats don't work so well together. BOOOM. Said it.

Looking back at these photos of me in hats, however, made me revisit that thought. I looook all right, right? RIGHT!

No. Pourquoi? Here's the breakdown:  My big head + my thick hair = GIGANTIC HEAD = No go for most hats.

But what do I care about my noggin?? For the past few weeks, I've been squeezing my oversized cranium into any hat I could find. Sooooo, PHOTO MONTAGE TIME!

001/ Bowler Hat from Target: I feel pretty jackass-y in this hat. On others, it can totally work, but nots on me. Firstedofly, it is clearly tooooo small; even in the picture you can see it trying to crawl off my head. Secondishly, I feel like I'm a pair of Rayban Wayfarer's away from being a trend monster. RWOOOR.

002/ Black Floppy Hat from Space 15/Twenty (aka Urban Outfitters in Hollywood): I actually liked this floppy hat look! I felt like a I either stepped out of Fried Green Tomatoes or Benny and Joon- really any Mary Stuart Masterson film in the early 90s. Shrrrrink, head, shrink! Or GROW, HAT, GROW.

Shed a tear or two.

003/ Green Floppy Hat from Macy's: Ummmm, no. Just NO.

004/ Red Beret from Target: Ohhhhh, this one fulfills my Parisian/Amelie dreams! But really, how often can I wear a red beret and feel okay with myself? Feels alittle TTH. But loooks adorable, right?

Awwwwww!

005/ Pagliacci/Clown Hat from Zinnia's: BOUGHT THIS ONE. Yes. Out of any hat I could/would buy, I opted for this beauty. For any King Of The Hill fans out there: I feel very Tartuffe, The Spry Wonder Dog in this hat.

One day, I will conquer you HATS!

R.I.P Brittany Murphy, aka Tai Fraiser.

Tai was one of the reasons I loved striped shirts and black choker necklaces in grade school. MISS YOU.

I LOVESSSS YOU, BAND OF SKULLS (and too a lesser degree, Passion Pit)!

I saw one of my most favorite new bands of the year, Band Of Skulls, play with another '09 band fav, Passion Pit @ the Fox Theatre in Pomona, CA and it was TIIIIIIGHT/BADASSSSS/OUTIE 5000 (hahahaha, terrible).

My shoulder is a little achey (mmmm... I feels like it's gonna rain soon. hahahah, I feel elderly) so PHOTO MONTAGE TIME!

001/ What the WHHHAAA!

002/ Jaya and I looking like hoooookers walking to the venue (where 3048304348935 million teens were already waiting, in the rain).

003/ What I wore (I loovves me a nice floral):

+Fur scarf: my sister's.
+Watch: a gift dad (it's Czech!).
+Denim jacket: Old Navy.
+Floral dress: Nordstrom's Rack.
+Black tights: my sister's.
+Lace-up's: Justin Boots.
+Outer jacket (around my purse): Anna Sui For Target.

004/ Jaya and our friend, Mary, waiting it out as Plague Vendor do their screamo crap on stage (someone tell that front man that Axl Rose and Perry Farrell do it BETTER).

005/ OHHHH NO THEY DIDN'T. Ohhh, they did. Me and J bumpin' it to Montell Jordan's This Is How We Do It, which is blaring out the of PA system.

006/ Me getting tired of waiting for Passion Pit to perform.

007/ BAND OF SKULLS! Sorry, I don't have any pictures of Passion Pit on stage because, I was lazy? Whatevvvah.

008/ CRAZY LAST PART: I decided to take video of the show because I was tooo far away to take pictures (we grabbed seats in balcony during the first band, but were too comfortable to move after that). I got two videos (Patterns and Bleed) and decided for a third (Impossible-one of my favorites. one night, I played it, like, 1029382 times on repeat) WHEN THIS HAPPENED:

Watch the dickbag's hands...

 

OOOOOOHHHHH A FACE FULL OF LASER!!!!!!!

**EXTRA EXTRA: Here are the video's I took of Band Of Skulls. They're cut short because I'm tooo cheap to buy into Pro on Flickr. That's too bad because you'll the laser light show I got when I taped Impossible. BE WARNED: These play like bootleg dvds- people walk in front of the camera, surrounding people are screaming, and my hands get a bit shaky (mmm.... it feels like it's gonna rain, again), so in short: JUST ENJOY THE (shitty quality) MUSIC.
