*drumroll*
A SUPER POST!!!
Lemme hear you say WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
You can expect things like a winter wishlist, some fantastic (NOT) photography by yours truly, maybe some crazy outfits, some christmas lights, some fantasizing about the holiday season, a rant about APUSH (oh, how I hate it!), and just the usual nonsense I blab about.
Oh, and...
I decided to make this SUPER POST a SUPER POST/QUESTIONS POST, meaning I will leave you with some questions, and I want you to ask me questions too. You know, like those Q&A posts that other bloggers do? Something like that...I think it will be fun!
Questions for you:
1. What is your opinion on bib necklaces?
2. Please do suggest some outfit ideas/challenges! I want to start putting my outfits on here again, and I need you guys to help me in not being a bum.
Sooooo....all you need to do now is...ANSWER/ASK away!!!!!

absolutely magical
CLICK HERE
I know that song has been remixed by some Jason Derulo into a hip hoppy song, but I think it kills the original. "Hide and Seek" by Imogen Heap is the song that the chorus of "Whatcha Say" is from, but the latter just sucks away the eerie, magical, beauty of the original. The use of the harmonizer is just perfect, giving the listener chills, yet at the same time, butterflies. I just thought I would share.
I could say that life in Liseland is going well, but I would be lying. Our dance show is on Sunday, and the stress that it has been causing me is extreme. I love dance, don't get me wrong, but as junior year of high school just killing me slowly, dance is killing me painfully. I keep thinking though, that once I get on that stage, and showcase what I love to do, all this pain and stress will be worth it.
I have been absent on the fashion scene, as far as runway shows and designers go, but I have been paying attention to a few trends that I do love. Usually, I am not one to follow trends, but this fall, some of the things popping up in stores are intriguing me more than ever. Something about a warm, fuzzy fur vest (faux of course) is so appealing to me. The other day I saw one in H&M and I wanted it so badly, but the line was really long and I was running late for dance, so I could not get it.
My color choices have varied too; I was once a girl who lived for bright and bold colors, but now, I appreciate the beauty of soft, buttery, feminine colors, and also deep, rich, warm, luxurious autumn colors: snowy silver, pale peach, delicate petal, classic nude, refreshing mint, deep cobalt, decadent plum, rich emerald, warm mahogany, chic black, serene forest, olive, and pumpkin.
Well, I must go now, as I have four newspaper articles to write, a vocab quiz to study for, a pig-pen of a room to clean, a birthday card to make, an SAT to register for, homework to finish, and a dance class to go to. Toodles darlings, and take care.
P.S. This wonderful autumn weather is inspiring me to bust out the camera once again. I think it is time I posted some of my own (possibly crappy) photos on here.

major disappointment
I went back-to-school shopping today, mainly to spend all my birthday gift cards, and buy some nice stuff to wear. Well, as the title so wonderfully gives away, it was a total disappointment.
We ended up going to two malls. The first one was so confusing, that I failed to find anything I liked. I just snagged two pullover sweaters (in white and blue), but was very upset that I couldn't find anything I wanted.
I was preparing for this shopping trip, researching all summer, and finalizing a list of things to buy. Remember that list I made two posts ago? I could find none of those things. Forever 21 and Heritage 1981 were both at the first mall, but I failed to find the sequin shorts, the patterned leggings and mini, or the cobwebby tights. Both stores were so outdated (compared to the website) that I left the mall with a lot of anger bubbling inside me. Actually, Forever 21 had a military style jacket that I really liked, but the store only had smalls. Because of my long torso, I need at least a medium in tops.
With a little bit of hope left in me, I went to H&M, found the sequin leggings, but there was only one pair, and that too in an XL size. I was going to explode.
Soon I got tired of the first mall, and left for the second mall. I was a bit excited about this one because it has American Apparel, and I had my American Apparel gift card. Plus, I was more accustomed to the second mall, therefore, I knew my way through the H&M at this mall better.
The minute we got to the mall, I made a beeline to H&M, and scanned the place for the sequined leggings. After failing to find them, I began to browse for this dusty salmon colored shiny windbreaker-ish jacket that I saw online. Imagine my excitement when I found it...I squealed with excitement. I found my size too; it was just too good to be true! But then I saw the price: $35 dollars. Not bad, I know, but then the material and the thickness (or lack of) was just not worth the money. Once again, I was disappointed. What seemed to look cozy and warm in the H&M style guide was actually nylony and cold to the touch in real life. Why did this have to happen to me?
In fact, I was so upset that I barely cared about the Urban Outfitters (I was only there once before, so I was excited about going to it today...but not when I was actually at the mall), and didn't even notice the sale prices (my mom told me about them in the car on the way home -_-).
After my friend was done at UO, we made our way to the American Apparel store. I wanted this velour sweater, but when I asked the employee, she said they didn't carry the item anymore. GAH. So I ended up getting just a t-shirt, and my mom got a coin purse thing. But before making the purchase, I was thinking about the circle vest, and went hunting for it. As I was on the hunt, my friend tapped me on the shoulder. I turned around to see her wearing it, wondering if she should get it. I told her to, because she seemed to like it so much. When I went back to see if there was another one, there was, but not in the color i wanted. Cursing at my horrible fate, I painfully watched her happily purchase it.
-____-
So that is my tale of woe, the story about my much anticipated, but totally disappointing shopping trip. What did I learn from this experience? Going shopping with a purpose always turns out to be a disaster for me. But, this has to be the WORST one yet.

time is ticking by WAY too fast
It seems like the summer started only a week ago, yet (surprisingly), two months have already passed by. It sort of reminds me of the situation in this one book I read a long time ago, about a time leak. It is called The New Policeman, for anyone interested. Basically, the time from the real world leaked into another dimension, where there is no end to time...it is eternal. So the real world is losing time, and since the time is leaking into the dimension where people(or fairies) are generally immortal, the residents of that parallel dimension are growing older, and dying.
I feel as if the same is happening here, in our real world.
I have an AP English essay due on Monday, and I have to still read the second half of Frankenstein and read all of The Return of the Native. Gah, why am I such a serial procrastinator???
To add on to that, I have lots of music homework to do, and class is on Saturday, and I haven't even touched my book because of all the reading I have to do. I might cancel Saturday's class...hmmm.
Well, anyways, school starts in less than 3 weeks (GASP), and I have yet to go back to school shopping. I haven't gone shopping at all this summer, because of various school projects (it is the summer for goodness sakes!).
I actually cannot wait till school starts...only because I won't be bumming around all day doing nothing. Plus, it will sort of encourage me to wear nice clothes, instead of sweats and t-shirts all day long.
Some things I really want for this fall:
I even made two fall inspiration collages:

i was thinking...
chloe's blog post got me thinking...
why do i blog?
quite honestly, i think blogging itself is tiring, but for some reason i just cannot stop it.
so why do i blog?
i think it is just to put my thoughts and ideas out there.
but that is the default answer. i guess a better answer, yet a truthful one, would be that compared to most of my peers and friends, i have very different taste.
in music, i tend not to like the typical radio pop, nor the serious rock that most of my pals listen to. instead, i gravitate towards alternative in its true sense, sometimes electronic or dance, and folk. pop is good too, but not like lady gaga, miley cyrus, britney spears, diva pop, but like less materialized pop. i really don't know how to define it, but i hope you understand what i mean. i like indie music that is sweet, and not depressing. as you can see i am definitely one picky person when it comes to music. here are some of my favorite artists to make my whole music tastes more clear:
as for fashion, i really hate mixing in with the crowd. last year was my realization year, when i started to understand my true tastes in fashion. while most of my friends were busy trying to be like the typical hollister/abercrombie/aeropostale head-to-toe girls (there is nothing wrong with that...just saying) that my school is so full of, i wanted to be different and wear clashing colors and prints. plus, i was practically the only one in my whole friend circle with more knowledge about the fashion design field, so whenever i tried to share my excitement about a fashion week with one of my friends, they would just nod and smile, which most often means, they don't care, or have no idea what you are talking about, but just want to be polite.
so there it is, the reason i blog. i write my thoughts and ideas and interests here because i know that there are people who feel the same way about some things, somewhere out here in the blogosphere ( i hate to use that term, but had to...sorry!). i can relate to them, they can relate to me, and there are no awkward moments. all in all (it sounds like i am writing the conclusion of a really bad essay), since no one in the real world listens to me, or relates to me, or knows what i am talking about, i rant here.
that being said, i feel like i have been trying way too hard to try and fit in with the blogging world (which totally goes against my philosophy of going with the crowd), so from now on, no more outfit posts. only because there is no point, i feel, in putting up what i wear for the world to see, plus i am not very comfortable putting up pictures of myself on the web...i just did so before because i was trying to fit in, and that was quite dumb of me.
and from now on, i am going to blog about whatever (fashion/music/random/etc...) not caring about what attracts readers or commenters. i stopped caring. if people like what i say, then YAY...if not, then ok, it's all cool in da pool...i might, sometime down the road, make this blog private, but we shall see.
anyways...yep, that is pretty much it.
will be back soon.

harry potter, challenges, and boredom...
hey there people!
thanks for the lovely wardrobe challenge ideas...i am taking them into consideration, and will probably start next week.
and if any of you haven't commented with a challenge idea on the previous post, please do so, and you can continue to comment on that post itself.
nope i lie. no boston.
oh, and i am getting really bored of blogging, but i don't want to quit. please, if you want to see something specific on this blog, or in a post, comment, comment, comment! i need ideas! and i am losing readers too.
it seems like outfit posts and eye candy attract more readers too, but once i get the time to post all those/ figure out how to post them from my bday mini laptop thing, i guess i will.
once again, if you guys have any specifics you want to see, do tell me.
in the future, i might just make this a ranting blog, that has a little bit of everything: music, photography, interior design, architecture, fashion, etc. but i have some organizing and figuring out to do.
hmmm...i don't really know if all of that made any sense, but i've got no time...so i shall leave you now.
toodles!
p.s. going to see harry potter and the half blood prince tonight
p.p.s. please comment with specifics you want to see
p.p.p.s. sorry for not capitalizing anything...i am just getting really lazy, and pressing shift on this keyboard is a pain.

wardrobe challenge anyone?
ermmm
ok, so here's the deal.
my best friend susan (she was on the blog in its early days, but then ditched. but its all cool in da pool...i still <3 her!) and i were planning to get serious about this fashion smashion...and refresh our wardrobes.
that's right...it's a WARDROBE MAKEOVER. but, since we shall reveal our fantastic new wardrobe in september, when school starts, i want to fit in a wardrobe challenge for the summer.
before i throw everything out of my pathetically useless closet, i would love some challenges from you, my loverly readers :)
i want to get as much wear as possible out of some of the things i know i will never wear ever again, before i throw them out. it will sort of make me feel a bit less guilty about chucking them.
so go ahead and comment below, with a challenging outfit idea, or whatever. i will try to cover as many challenges as possible.
try to make them appropriate challenges, so that i don't have to get OMG looks from my family.
challenge me!

so...now what?
So the summer is here.
Now what?
Well, I don't even know.
Actually, today was the 12th day of summer vacation. And what have I accomplished so far?
NOTHING.
ZIP.
SQUAT.
Today was probably the most productive day ever.
I actually started one of my five summer assignments. It was the first part of my math assignment. And that too, I only did 10 out of some 50 problems. Pathetic.
Well tomorrow, I am going to start my actual summer routine (the one I was supposed to follow ages ago...). It involves jogging, dancing, singing, working, and absolutely no time wasting or procrastinating.
Pshhh...let us see how far that goes.
Sorry about the lack of interesting posts with pretty eye candy and whatnot.
I am posting from my mini notebook thing and I still haven't gotten the hang of it.
But there is a mini update on my pathetic life. A real post will be coming soon.
And if you guys have any ideas on what I should post to spruce this blog up, do tell me.
Now what?
Well, I don't even know.
Actually, today was the 12th day of summer vacation. And what have I accomplished so far?
NOTHING.
ZIP.
SQUAT.

BCBGirls Geblyn in Sorbet Patent or Pool Patent
Just something about the shininess of it and the watery blue or bright orange (orange is my favorite color) makes me drool. I don't even know why, but I NEED NEED NEED it. Ok, fine...WANT WANT WANT it.

happy bday bloggie!
Dear bloggie,
Happy 1st Birthday, darling!
I wish you a successful blog-life, and hope that you have many, many posts in the future!
Eat lots of cake, dear, and remember, despite our frequent break-ups, I still love you...
love,
lise ^_^
Yep, I just remembered that today is my blog's first birthday. She's all grown up now! I hope that I can be a much more dedicated blogger this year.
p.s. I celebrated my sweet sixteen 5 days ago, and I got an anorexic beta fish, Mr. Fishy (lame, I know, but I just started calling him that, and it stuck!) He will be dropping by in the future.

don't hate me for this...
I know you were all waiting for my super post, but unfortunate events came up and I had to leave the blog for a while. As you can see, it has been a little over a month since my last post, which promised so much, but sometimes, promises must be broken.
I hate to say this, but I really cannot dedicate my time to fashion blogging anymore. I love it, but it is just killing my other lives: social, academic, family, etc.
On the bright side, this will not be a permanent hiatus. I will be back in the summer, as I will have more time, with school over and everything, and I can blog more properly ^_^ I will not lose any interest in fashion at all while I am gone, but I think I can actually come back with more knowledge of the field :)
But before I leave, I must say this. I would really love it if you keep checking back at my other blog as I don't really get too many readers there, and I will update it every month or so. I have taken a break from that one as well, but only because of a lack of inspiration. Unlike fashion blogging, my other blog will need much less dedication to because it is basically just a bunch of random words thrown together by me, and you loverly readers commenting. I would really love it if you actually did visit the other blog this time, because feedback means a lot to me. So until the summer, bittersweet-whim will be the only running blog that I will have.
Notice how I hyperlinked quite a few things there, just so that it would catch your eyes :)
I shall say farewell (for now) with a few photos (and collections) that I really love.

Collections I fell in love with (collages by me, photos from style.com):
Spring/summer photography I shall leave you with...aren't they fantastic? (weheartit.com)
Cya in the summer, when we have loads of fun like the girl above :)
<3 lise
p.s don't forget to visit bittersweet-whim...I will start posting there soon (this weekend)
toodles now ^_^
