two steps forward, two steps back

happy new year! hangovers aside, i hope things are looking all bright and shiny and promising for everyone.

notice anything different? i like lily cole as much as the next chick, but ever since i took down my old sophomore spring'08 banner at the end of the summer, i've been kinda jonesing for it. imagine my delight when i stumbled across the spring'09 lookbook via refinery 29. luckily ms. miller didn't tweak her formula too much - let some friends loose in new york city in sophomore gear (styled by lissy trullie!) with cass bird, recreating the hazy, hot child/summer in the city vibe that i loved so much the first time around. despite the intended 1970s lower east side influence, last spring's lookbook reminded me a lot of the movie kids with a less dated wardrobe. this time i'm getting a little tatum o'neal + kristy mcnichol in little darlings vibe. less talk, more visuals, you say? i got you.

oh, and i'm well aware that this is a totally season-inappropriate post, but i figure it's summer somewhere, right? and as far as i'm concerned, it's never too early to get in the mood.

as of this posting, i'm heading back to cambridge with dylan - i'm not due back til friday and i don't relish going back to school, but i had to get up and go somewhere, y'know? i have trouble sitting still. when i get back i'll be writing the first of three papers and studying for finals, but as promised, there will be posts. peace, kids.

no, really.. is it summer yet?

It looks really casual, which I like about most shoots like this. It is a lot more believable and relatable that way.
Happy New Year, by the way.
