She's only thirteen!!

My question is; why is Tavi Gevinson aka Style Rookie, so frikin' amazing?! This girl is only thirteen years old and means so much to the fashion world. She borrows clothes from Miu Miu, she gets personal calls from Mr. Prada, sits front row at fashion shows internationally, meets with various designers and somehow magically still has time for 8th grade. How does she do it?? Such a hard life...

(wearing Rodarte. Ya, she tends to do that...)

(front row tickets. Ya, she has those...)

(Wearing Prada. Of course...)

(Ya, she would be modeling Miu Miu's spring 2010 collection.)

This girl is isane!!! She looks so grown up now! What the hell happened?? She is gorgeous, in the last to pictures especially.

She has such a long and great career ahead of her, weither it be designer, model, writer, fashion magazine editor!!
and one again, SHE'S ONLY THIRTEEN!!!

Glitter Pie

I love when something great happens and you were never expecting it!

I woke up this morning knowing that later I would have to go babysitting...I was dreading it. When I got there no one was home so I ended up just going back to my house which kinda sucked but at the same time YAY I didn't have to babysit. Well, no, not quite. A few minutes after returning home there was a knock on the door and my hopes were crushed and I had to babysit anyway. Turns out I had to bring Meiyan to a birthday party.

IT WAS AMAZING!! The place the party was that is. It was called Glitter Pie.

This place made me want to be 4 again. There was so many things to squish!! The walls were covered in splattered paint and dyed cotton balls and glitter absolutely everywhere. The ceilings were covered with painted parasols and paper lanterns and there was the most amazing little kid artwork!

The kids made all sorts of things that just looked like so much fun, it was really hard to restrain myself. I wanted to make all the crafts sooo bad!!! Especially the glitter pies!!

These pies were made of shaving cream topped with glitter. Then you put every colour of food dye all over. Then, the best part; SQUISH!!! Oh how I wanted to feel that multicolour shaving cream in between my fingers. All the crafts involved sooo much glitter I couldn't believe it. I couldn't help but rub my fingers in it.The women running the place kind of looked at me funny when I did that...

Another thing that happened today.

After babysitting I met my mom and my sister downtown. It was late so by the time I got there we only had time to go to one store. Of course, we went to H&M (although going to ZARA would have made the trip even better). The H&M at the eaton center is under renovations and last time I went it was a huge disappointment. This time, it was far from that. I didn't end up buying much but just looking was fine for me. They had so many amazing things. A lot velvet, lace and shoulders. I bought two shirts with big shoulders.

This isn't exactly either of them but it's the closest thing I found online. One of them is grey and has lace detailing on the shoulders and the other is a darker purple and has 3/4 length sleeves.

Also at H&M I found *drum roll please* VELVET HAREM PANTS!! They were amazing but they were 60 bucks, and more than I had. Sooooo, thank god for mothers, my MOM bought them!! YIPEE!!

Thanks to Petra modeling them. It's too bad my camera wasn't functioning. Need more batteries!!

Okay well my computer is about to die so I have to finish this up. I'll end by saying I still haven't seen Alice In Wonderland and I might die if I don't see it soon. (I've been wearing my bunny necklace in hopes of it increasing my chances of soon seeing this movie. I don't really know why I think it'll help but eh, whatever.)

Alice in Wonderland

OOOOOOOOOOOH MAN!!!

Alice in Wonderland came out last night and I want to see it soooo badly!! I'm almost positive I'll see it tonight and I just can't wait!! I've been waiting for this day since last august, not kiding. My sisters (when I say sisters I mean my sisters and my cousins) and I found out about it and we' ve been crazy about it since. It cannot/ will not be a dissapointment!! IT WON'T IT WON'T IT WON'T!!

Isn't Tim burton just the best? He makes awesome movies and always has a great cast, like good old Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter. So many good ones like Sweeny Todd, Sleepy Hollow, Nightmare Before Christmas, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Big Fish and Edward Scissorhands ,oooooooooooooh i love that one! Tim Burton has such an interesting style and he never disapoints with he's unbelievable creativity and originality. Hope he makes another one soon :)

a few of my favorite things...

hello world

oh hello there.

I am so excited to start this blog and I feel like I need to formally introduce myself to the cyber world of blogging. So um, HEY!
I'm Ali. I'm almost 16 and I am, and always have been a twin (well duh!). When people find out that I'm a twin I get the same questions. Of course there's the "do you like being a twin". My answer for anyone who asks is in the form of another question; what is it like not to be one? I more often then not get an annoyed face in response to this question, but hey, what can you do?
Maybe you know twins, maybe you've always wanted to be a twin (or not. really not) maybe you are a twin. In the end I've got to say its pretty frickin' cool. It's pretty awesome when you think about it because even though it's not that rare it's not "normal". and not being "normal" is great. Who wants to be like everyone else anyways?
You might already know this but Hitler did testing on twins when he was about. He's SOOOOO not cool and neither were his experiments but knowing that I am one of something that was considered freaky enough to be tested on is pretty awesome. (In a kinda sick and twisted way).
okay, sorry , enough dumb twin ranting I'm going to get to the point, my introduction.

I am really into fashion right now and I love trying new things.
I LOVE photography and would die for a good camera (Canon Rebel EOS Xsi!!!!!!!!!)
I LOVE listening music and playing the guitar, ALLL THE TIME.
I like reading ( I love Broken by Daniel Clay!!!) and watching awesome movies (love Little Miss Sunshine, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, soooo many more!!)
and of course a nice old feast made by my Yiayia doesn't hurt either.

Well anyways, I'm pretty sure I'm talking to myself but for now that will have to do.
until next time...

p.s. I don't reallly know what I will be posting on this blog. Probably just whatever random things come to my mind.
