ACNE IS SO GOOD AND RUNNING MAKES YOU SKINNY.

just wanted to post my outfit from dinner last night and say fuck yeah i can fit into my size 34 acne skirt that ive only wore twice. its made from multiple layers of silk with no stretch at all so you either fit into it or you do not. since losing my job a couple of weeks ago i have been running nearly every day which is a great way to lose weight. i am also off the booze (two weeks as of today!) which knocks out around 50,000,000,000 sugary pointless calories a week. point being the skirt fits and i feel better than i have in ages.

word!

THINKING OF NORWAY.

in may 2009 i went to norway. i spent all my time in the city of stavenger on the west coast. this was the loveliest place i have ever been, certainly the most calm, and there are two acne stores in very close proximity to one another. heaven! i felt like posting some of my favorite pictures from that time. has anyone else been?

this was in the ceiling of the ladies room.

of this ladies room. me with long hair. missssssss.

wood carving.

about 11pm. it doesnt get completely dark in may. 

super modern sandbox in the middle of town. oh hey no big deal.

norwegian coast guard. no joke.

sea captain.

A COCO A DAY

typically i take a photo each day of the outfit i wear to work. i am aware a million others do as well but this isnt their blog its mine so even though i instagram it (cocotalon, #acocoaday) i am going to give everyone here a glimpse as well as information and the ability to ask questions. woo hoo! i am also going to back track a bit so lets look at some of my great and not so great working girl ensembles. i wont bore you with opinions but will give designers.
