bruised lip

There is a nightclub here in Seattle called Q. It's a wild nightclub. One that should be in a movie. My friend Gabby loves this place, I however, am indifferent about it.

Don't get me wrong. I love clubs. More importantly I love dancing. However - although this club has the best DJs that come through it's the people that I can't stand. Do guys really think girls are here just for them. I mean truly and honesty all I came to do was once thing - to dance!

  

I don't drink, so no I don't want a drink. And I don't smoke, so no I don't want to smoke with you. I just want to dance. So Gabby dragged me out to see a DJ called Moon Boots (yeah, I thought it was a made up name too). Great DJ, now a fan of his work, but I shortly had to dip because well... people were getting annoying. Till then though, I was having a blast!

 

I've also been playing around with lipstick lately. Usually I don't wear it in the summer but always make sure to make it a fall accessory.

run around/dance around

Awe! My moment of zen. I get to take a moment. I had such a busy but great day.

First off; it was a beautiful early spring day in Seattle. Still cold but sunny.

I woke up super early for a meeting with a client, then lunch with a dear friend (where I got the yummiest pho!) took my mom to the doctors, ran some errands for a show I have tomorrow and then headed to dance rehearsal. So I need an outfit to work for all these things.

Now if you ever wonder why people wear leggings as pants one reason is for people like m who are always on the go. And I don't want to feel restricted by REAL pants.

 

This outfit above is what I wore for dance practice subtract the timberlands. The shoes I wore are my busted but lovely retro jordan ones (post above) with my amazing gym bag my old friend shelby got me from the goodwill outlet. So she paid like a nickel for it.

 

And this was what I wore the rest of the day. See what I did, made it easy to change.

All Vinyl

I need more vinyl in my life! (Like most people need more cowbell...) Last night I went to a great DJ basement dance party at Barboza on Capitol Hill. It was 4 different DJs only spinning ONLY classic vinyl records. It was amazing!

Nothing can touch the sound of vinyl. That crisp, sweet crackle sound it makes. Plus throw in some of Seattle's best DJs and it's a party!

I of course wanted to dress like I was in the 50's. Plus be able to wear something not only I could dance in but also sport a dress I can twirl in. No skirt does the job better than my "minnie mouse" skirt.

Gold shoes (Nordstrom Rack) $25.00
"minnie mouse" skirt (Goodwill) $3.00
Black Shirt (Old Navy) $4.00
Door knocker earrings (gift)

dancing business

Even though I had to be at work at 6 AM this morning, I went out dancing last night with a bunch of friends. I need to blow off some steam.

I've been stressed about work, money, boy trouble, this and that. And the only thing that makes me feel better is dancing. It's the only time my body seems to make any sense. I am a clumsy goofy person but when I am dancing it's the ONLY time I am actually graceful. And frankly my dear (when I am dancing) I just don't give a damn.

The playlist of the night was Whitney Houston's "Wanna Dance with Somebody"

and iggy azalea "murda bizness"
