Spring Break on the Brain

I'm in the library, dressed way down: long-sleeve t-shirt, Sperry's and jeans--not OOTD worthy by any means. While I am trying to finish my marketing plan and proposal I can not stop people watching in the library. Does anyone else have this problem? I am sitting by the door on the 3rd floor (bad idea # 1). This floor is GREEK SYSTEM central and I keep seeing people I kind of know but don't really know. What do I do? Do I say hey, do the head nod, ignore them completely? Then I must (not-so-discretely) stop turning my head every which way to see who walked in, who walked out, who is sitting with who--when did I become so nosy? Right now I literally feel like a spinning head Medusa, I am looking everywhere, time to focus Cassie: just look at the computer screen, just blog, please just blog and stop looking up.
Change of topic, since I am procrastinating before my class at 11...I have spring break on my brain and these photos by Tamer Yilmaz from Elle Turkey March 2011 are getting me so excited to leave the cold weather behind and hop on my cruise boat--jetting off to the Bahamas! I can not wait for bright nail polish, big sunglasses, breezy patterned dresses and a backdrop of palm trees and turquoise water! Now if only I had a wardrobe Miu Miu and Prada...

Sick Day(s)

I've been feeling pretty sick lately (maybe I shouldn't use the world pretty in front of the word sick...it just seems wrong). Anyway, although I am sick I still had to work today (internship work from home in my PJ's...my boss is the best!) And although I don't feel well, how can I not get a little cheerier writing fashion press releases and calling editors from ElleGirl and Teen Vogue?!?
This is my new sick routine, all I need is:
My MacBook Pro (for Internship work, homework...and blogging/Facebooking/Tweeting, hey a girl needs the occasional break!), a steamy mug of Tea (bottomless!), the March issue of Health Magazine (Spring Break in 2 weeks, gotta get in shape! Hello Bahamas!), Rumor Has It (hilarious movie!), OPI InStyle Red nail polish (painting my nails makes me feel pretty even if I feel gross...I recommend doing this, it temporarily works), Comfy PJ's (it's okay, I'm sick so I'm allowed to dress like a bum).


I forgot to mention that I've been listening to every single song from Glee (okay, only the ones that I have in my iTunes)...happy music people, happy music!

I love Isabel Marant!

Has everyone seen the Isabel Marant Spring/Summer 2011 Collection? It is seriously the most amazing thing that I have ever seen! She is a truly inspiring designer--she has financial smarts, an original aesthetic and a shabby-chic-Parisian-bad-gal style (read this interview at Hobo Magazine, and this one at Elle). While I love the collection these are my favorite looks...chunky knits, lots of leg, structured jackets, belted EVERYTHING...it is so boho-rocker I can't explain how badly I need some Isabel Marant pieces in my wardrobe.
