manhattan

The hotel above and the street below. Apartment filled with the ghosts of the friends we used to know. In and out, going on and on. Stranded and strange right in the center of it.

Losing my touch, out of time. Hide from who you can. In this world, I found out that love leaves. Yes, I once had a great love. A big love. But I shook it from my hair, just like everything else. You say you've got nothing to hide, you and your secret life.

You've got your secret on. Wanting to live all the time, and then slip right out of it.

Don't look at the moon tonight, you can never be manhattan.

i'm into you

"I got a feeling we are gonna win. Our bodies make it perfect and your eyes can make me swim. Then again everything seems new, I can barely hold my tongue, to say the least, I'm into you.

And our eyes are saying more than we can talk, and warmer than our bedroom sport. And your thighs are kisses from the outside, girl that's all I need.

I'll take you down the other road, to breathe in something more. I'll find it harder to ignore the things I want you for.

The rhythm was all I needed to hear, a woman can treat my heart. When I press up an ear up to you, I can hear the rhythm start, it's hard to tell our beats apart.

So I hope you're listening right now, cause I can barely hold my tongue the shit we do could warm the sun.

At night twisted in a melting fall and sleeping with the scratching claws. And your words, let me know you're feeling me and seeing all the things I see."

Obstacle 1

"I wish I could eat the salt off of your last faded lips. We can cap the old times, make playing only logical harm. We can top the old lines, clay-making that nothing else will change. And I'll never see this face again. And you go stabbing yourself in the neck.

But she can read, she's bad. It's in the way that she poses, it's in the things that she puts in my head. Her stories are boring and stuff. She's always calling my bluff. She puts the weights into my little heart, and she gets in my room and she takes it apart."

I don't know about you guys, but I grew up listening to Interpol. (You can even see some of their influence in my earliest blog posts.) They have hands down been my favorite band since I was fifteen. When I shot these photos for Foxiedox with my boyfriend, I immediately thought of the girl in the hallway in the Obstacle 1 music video. The way she just shakes it like a mental case in that big furry sweater against the wall, such inspiration!

But let's talk fashion! I am seriously in love with this black fur vest. I've been wearing it as a layering piece ever since the temperature started dropping here in New York. I wear it to yoga with my leggings and tee under my black leather jacket. Even if you're in LA, you can totally use this as a cool fur pop layer under any jacket.

And okay some of you may hate me for this, but I've also been using it under my other faux fur jackets.. yes... a double fur! Some people make fun of me for it, but I also get a ton of compliments like, "where did you get that two-toned fur jacket?" Little do they know it's a fur vest + a fur on top of it. It's one of my favorite stay chic, but stay warm tricks!

Also you all know I've been a vegan for 5 years so the fact that this brand is 100% faux + animal friendly just makes my heart sing!! There is no need to use animals in our clothing, and I'm glad this brand is representing that standard.
