Il fait beau en fin for Christs sake




Took a picture of just some of the tickets I've gotten from France. The top is from the TGV, the little green is from a suitcase check from when I got here, one is from Mont Saint Michel, one is from a Paris boat ride, one is from the Eifel Tower, then the two last ones are from trips to the theater with my class. Then just took some pictures of the day and what I was able to wear because it was so nice.

Inspiration










Ugh, the internet

The Coasts of Bretagne





Ocean inspired. My leather ebay backpack. My striped scarf, with a racerback gray jersey dress, a Bretagne scarf from my moms trip to Finnistaire(sp?) and my silver rings with heart bracelet. Street of St. Malo...quicksand in Mont St. Michel.

Je reconfirme, c'est moche

Bird stencil I made a while ago....I tried to draw this on one of my friends one day and it turned out the ugliest thing you've ever seen. She thought I did it on purpose. Pshhh.

Smells Like Teen Spirit


I have apparently been in charge of sweatshirts for our soccer team next year. Started to whip up some designs. Here's the back to one of them.

La Braderie?




Flea Market in Bruz! What a score. Yesterday went to h&m and bought a leopard button down and some blue nail polish. Today, bought a ring for 5 euros and a beaded lipstick case for one. I wanted this necklace, but the guy wanted 5 euros for it. I told him I'd give him three but he made it clear he would only take four. Meh....I decided to pass it up.

Aht Uh Mi Hed



Was supposed to be running yesterday, but instead made this bracelet out of old bobby pins and some chain from a necklace(that I had to sacrifice). I will be so glad to go back home and be able to use all my normal materials. It's been really hard to find things to make other things out of as the French are so don't-keep-or-buy-anything-we-don't-need-y.

Rainy Monday. Isn't that a Shiny Toy Guns song?

Who the hell am I kidding, I know very well it's a song by the Shiny Toy Guns...being their biggest closet fan.
So it was raining and the plants outside my room looked oh so lovely, and so I opened my window and climbed through to take some pictassss. One of the benefits of living on the first floor for the first time in my life.

Then I decided to whip out some of the jewelry I made to photograph it. I had this whole image of these awesome Dan Powell images with the juxtaposition of the bright jewelry against the watery green but it ended up kinda lame. Oh who just said that creepy ass sentence about a kid I barely know? Wasn't me.
Classic Morgan fail. When I was holding the camera, I figured I might as well take a picture of myself seeing as I haven't done that since god knows when. And hey, It turned out pretty well! Until I decided that a pale sweater would look better with everything so I went and changed. Came back and tried to take the same picture. I just proved my own point-- thumbnail sketches and first drafts always fuck your life up.
