you knock me off of my feet

Yesterday my mom and I went to go see This Is It and, let me tell you it was fantastic! I recommend that everyone see it, even if you're not a Michael Jackson fan. I felt like jumping out of my seat to dance and belt it out every minute I was in there. I cannot even express how much I liked this film...it was such a treat so see a behind the scenes look at the rehearsals and auditions and everything it takes to put a show together.

Another thing I loved...Michael's style. Some of the pieces he wore during his rehearsals: gold sequin pants, a Balmain-esque shoulder-padded blazer, a silver blazer, bright red trousers, a purple military jacket...and he wore them all so effortlessly (and could dance in them). It was very inspiring...to just see how those pieces could be worn just like anything and no one thought anything of it because it was him. I challenge all of you to take this point of view when it comes to fashion...bust out those sequin leggings (or anything else equally wild) for no special occasion at all...just because you like them and feel great in them!

Today I got dressed in a hurry so I could register right away for my spring classes. Then I discovered that the earliest time that I could register was 11:oo, soooooo...I did finally get all the classes I want put on my schedule for next spring!

I love the look of this vintage jacket...it's so sharp. I paired it with black skinnies and good old Converse.

Well...yesterday I went to Borders and used my gift card to get a couple cook books. Tonight I attempted to make split pea soup and it turned out to be the worst soup I've ever tasted in my life. Yeah, it was gross. Oh well.

Now get up and dance you!
