A couple weeks ago Kesha dropped a new album with this really cool tone to it called Gag Order. I was so excited to see that she was working on some new music! I even already had decided I was going to shoot this shirt I have of hers soon, so I thought it was perfect timing to be doing this Warrior t-shirt photoshoot and calling it Gag Order in honor of the new album! I was super excited to get around to doing this photoshoot finally, I just thought this Warrior t-shirt with her album cover on it would be an awesome one to do next. I love shooting merchandise, it’s always so awesome. Don’t forget also to checkout my other blog post on just the shirt on my other blog too, Celebrity Merch Base. I really love my #MerchStyle concept blog, and I love going through all my merchandise and shooting all of it with different outfits all the time. I keep up on there often enough too. Anyway, this photoshoot had to wait until the very last second, but I finally did the photoshoot after I got home from something, thinking I would’ve had time to do the shoot before I even left and then hoping I could even get it done in general! BUT, I was lucky enough to still have had the time to do the photoshoot, way late in the middle of the night, and I even got enough good pictures of the shirt that I liked so I guess it all worked out fine anyway. At least I was able to do it at all, this time! Let’s get into the blog post next.

Things have been going super well lately and I’ve been pretty glad about my life. I’m excited about this new post I’m putting together today, too, it’s called Yayo! It’s inspired by the song by Lana Del Rey, of which my gold necklace is from in the photoshoot. That’s my featured merchandise item of the blog post, that I got in like 2015 when she was on tour. I love this necklace, it’s so perfect, it’s a gold rosary heart with snakes on it. I love Lana Del Rey! She recently dropped a new album but I named it after the old song because it matched the necklace that I wore, which I’ll write more about here. The photoshoot has like 3 different parts to it, too, the first part at my mom’s, the second part in downtown Seattle with Kwame & a couple of his friends, and the third part at a KeyBank in a city nearby. I’m so glad Kwame and I finally did another photoshoot together! He’s my best friend these days and we hangout a lot, and we have been hanging out a bunch since August pretty much. It’s awesome, we go to the club most the time but I might do another post about that some other day, and yesterday we finally decided to do this photoshoot. The first shoot him and I ever did together was back in 2019 called Live Fast, which was pretty awesome. This one turned out pretty great also though, too, he even got some shots for his next music video while I was shooting too which should turn out pretty great! He’s made a music video or two of us before, I’ll mention one of those later in the post. We’ve also made music together before too which is pretty rad. I’m so glad we’re friends & finally did this photoshoot together! I’m also so glad about how this year is going so far of course too.

So the beginning to this year has been pretty awesome so far, and I’ve really loved the way everything has been going. I was surprised that everything is coming together as well as it has been, I’ve been actually pretty busy these days and everything too! That’s a cool improvement in the last couple months at least especially, I love being busy. I love getting out of the house, getting things done and doing things that make me happy all the time. I even have been really liking my blog lately, I’m totally proud of how I’ve been doing with these posts too & that I’m always keeping up with it & everything. Today’s photoshoot & blog post is featuring the first Billie Eilish shirt I ever got, a bright orange t-shirt that says ‘Too Young To Go To Jail‘ from like 2018 or so. I love this shirt, it’s a cute one, and I’m glad I finally got around to doing the photoshoot for it! I’m always trying to shoot my merch, I get around to it definitely often enough and I love to do it. It’s all on my collective merchandise blog as well, Celebrity Merch Base, so that’s pretty cool. Definitely also check out “Scary World!” from 2020 on this blog, too, the first Billie post I ever ended up doing on here. Anyway, my goal is to shoot as much of my collection (of merchandise) as I can really, I’ve been doing photoshoots like that for all of it since near beginning of my blog basically. I love merch tees & outfits so much and it’s always fun to go through them like this. The whole outfit came together really well too, with a few different things. First of all, on Sunday I changed all the jewelry in my face from silver to gold, which I thought was perfect with the orange shirt! That’s something I’m excited about, this is the first shoot I’m doing with the color change, & it’s all new jewelry. That’s something I’ve always wanted to get around to doing, and I love how it’s going so far. Second, I also got two new gold Gucci belts for Christmas so I was finally able to include another one of those in a photoshoot this time since I finally put in all the gold jewelry in! That I’m pretty excited about too. Third, I really wanted to keep doing shoots for my old Dolls Kill orders to do something cool with one of those eventually, so I finally got pictures with these cute gold flame stud earrings that I got so long ago too. And finally, from Billie Eilish’s 2021 album, Happier Than Ever, she had a song called GOLDWING on there and I thought that would be perfect with the photoshoot! I love how that worked out, that’s a cool name and song, which is also a song on my favorite concept playlist of all time Convenience Fee. That’s pretty cool since I have a category on here as well called Convenience Fee that I update all the time with a bunch of posts inspired by the songs & playlist! I love this shoot & how everything turned out, let’s get into the post.

I’m excited about how today went! It’s the 15th of November today which was my 24th birthday, and I’m happy I made it to this part of the year again finally. One of the things I got for my birthday this year was from my dad, and it was this yellow plaid dress I was wearing below for my photoshoot. It’s from Avril Lavigne’s second drop & collection with the brand Killstar and it’s super rad. I really love it, it comes with a black mesh shirt that goes under it! I wore it with my red hair redyed and my extensions + red lipstick that I got recently from Kesha’s beauty line, Kesha Rose Beauty – it’s called the Raising Hell lipstick! I love this one too. Overall I love how the day went and I got a couple more presents from my family! I’ll eventually blog about the other fashion item I got from my mom and then that was pretty much it. I think my look turned out pretty rad and I’m excited to finally be 24. It’ll be a pretty good year for me I’m sure, and I can’t wait to see how it goes in 2023. For now, let’s get into my birthday post! I mainly spent this one with my family, but I appreciate where I’m at in life.

Happy Halloween 2022!

It’s finally time for me to do a good Halloween post! I do holiday posts sometimes throughout the years but a Halloween themed photoshoot or blog post I haven’t really done as much as I could’ve until today. The only other Halloween related blog post I’ve done until now is one I called Scorpio Season back in 2017, with a Halloween themed outfit and a Scorpio themed outfit. That one was pretty great, I think it turned out pretty good! This one is pretty much just a cute themed photoshoot with a Seether t-shirt I got for Halloween in 2015 called Mind Control, and it’s a totally awesome t-shirt! I just basically wore that and my chain leggings that I always love, and it was a pretty good outfit. One day I’ll find some sort of costume to do for a that kind of photoshoot, but I rarely ever dress up for Halloween! So I guess it was just cool to shoot down this photoshoot for both blogs of mine, including Celebrity Merch Base where I post things that I collect. I like how this turned out, I did some pictures for both the full-length shirt and the shirt tied up in the back to make it a crop top! I wanted to make sure I got the entire shirt in the picture but also it looked really cute tied up. I also love the picture I used for my featured photo below, I think the eye look looked pretty good with the name of the t-shirt (Mind Control) that matched the look pretty well! Anyway, I love this Seether t-shirt, because I can definitely wear it other times of the year but it definitely was a Halloween t-shirt that they put out so it’s perfect to finally do a photoshoot for for this Halloween. I can’t believe how long I’ve had all my Seether merchandise! I always love it. Let’s get more into the photoshoot now.

I was pretty excited to see Peekaboo last year in November, with G-Rex as one of the opening acts. It was a totally good show! One of the best songs from Peekaboo is from 2018 called Work of the Devil, and he’s known for similar work as that. Although, other than the duo song from him and G-Rex, I hadn’t heard that much from G-Rex yet, but I ended up totally loving his music. He’s such a great electronic artist! So I also ended up loving the red graphic tee that he had for sale at the show and ended up getting that one there. Finally, now in August I ended up doing a photoshoot with the shirt and it turned out pretty good with my bright red hair again. This will be a good blog post I think! One of my most favorite songs from G-Rex is called ‘Pull Up’, which is what I called this photoshoot, it’s a song on my all-time best playlist Convenience Fee. I love that playlist and I sometimes write posts inspired by the playlist and everything, so I have a category you can look at here called Convenience Fee with all the posts that are coordinated with it on it. I loved G-Rex’s set, too, I think he’s a pretty good one too. He even recently, at the end of last month, did a second duet with Peekaboo on his new EP called ‘Deviant’ and that’s a pretty good one too. I’m so glad I have this shirt, it’s super cool looking too! Also check out my post on my other blog, Celebrity Merch Base, for the solo collection post for this t-shirt. I love how this year has been going, as well. Read more for the rest of the post!

The springtime is sometimes an awesome time for me with everything in the air smelling amazing finally and me finally feeling like I have another new season, which is cool and different from the summertime. They’re both different significant to me but I really appreciate when it’s finally a new season like this one, especially with everything that’s going on for me these days. This is turning out to be a promising year, and I’m so glad with everything I’ve been into since starting my outpatient treatment (for addiction) since last year in the summer (mid-July), and also everything I’ve been doing since I turned 23 in November. I, in addition to the meetings I’ve been going to and photoshoots I’ve been doing, have also been to a lot of concerts in the last half of a year (or since August) or so which has also been an awesome part of my life that I’ve finally been able to come back to since the last few years or more. I’m really glad at to where I’m at and what places I’ve gotten to mentally, and I think I’m making good progress on myself and my life everywhere possible as I go. Plus, I’ve also done really well since being back with my boyfriend (since last June actually, but we first got together in 2018) so that’s also still happening in my life! I’m pretty proud as to how everything’s turned out. Now in terms of this outfit, this kind of happened spontaneously with this Abbey Dawn brand ‘Rebel’ t-shirt (designed by Avril Lavigne in 2015) that I put together with a flag on it that matched my jeans. You can find the #merchstyle blog post for this shirt in particular on my website CelebrityMerchBase.com right here as well, featuring the same photoshoot!. I will remember to shoot my merchandise more, but this totally counts and I’m glad I put this together for this photoshoot this time. The last time I mentioned this t-shirt, it was around the same time in April but in 2016, and I wore it in some iPhone pictures with my ex-girlfriend for a blog post called Springtime Spunk. After so long I finally actually got the picture in a shoot like this, and I think it turned out awesome. In the past while I’ve also really been loving my makeup, as of lately still, and I’ve been doing really well with it all year too so I just really appreciate that passion of mine too and I’m glad I can always tie it in well to my photoshoots, and I keep good lists of all my makeup I do to my shoots so that’ll be in here later as well. Thanks so much for reading, ‘read more’ to see the rest of it!

Stoke the Fire

After a while I really got excited about this idea for this Seether shirt photoshoot. I put the idea up on my whiteboard at the beginning of one of the last two years, with this song title (Stoke the Fire) and one more up on there, to coordinate with a couple of my Seether shirts. I just got this shirt in July of 2018 from their concert (the 2nd of Seether’s that I’ve been to) and it definitely became one of my favorite concert tees that I had! I really love shooting merchandise sometimes too, it is always something I try to work well in with the mixes of other styles I do, so it works out really well that my second shoot of the year ended up being this one. Not only is this one of my only planned shoots for merchandise (from my whiteboard) that I’ve wanted to get around to, but I had just gotten my hair dyed that day and it looks so awesome in this photoshoot! Perfect for Stoke the Fire, I’m excited to see how this one turned out overall. I rarely ever had even shot these extensions, but my long red hair is finally back for me now and I’m so in love with it. I’m not sure how much of my merchandise I have left to shoot, but maybe I’ve done nearly half of it or so. You can check out a lot of photoshoots I’ve done for concert- and other celebrity-related merchandise on my other blog, CelebrityMerchBase. Nearly all of those photoshoots were also posted on this blog, but I keep track of the shirts and collecting in a concentrated form on that blog. It’ll update as I go through the year taking any pictures of my collection in any outfit! So many outfit pieces I have left to coordinate into photoshoots, written up on my whiteboard, and that’ll fill out the next year of my photoshoot ideas! It’s always my Urban Glam type outfits that I’m working on shooting, which is something I came up with way back in the day. I love including merch shirts and things like that in the mix with that style and this is such a good example, of which I think I did really well this time. I’m glad I finally got around to this Poison the Parish (the Seether album) inspired outfit, with my bright red hair and booties and these cutout leggings. The name of this shoot is also one of my very favorite Seether songs too, and one of the best ones I saw them preform live in 2018, where I got the shirt!

I really have always loved music with all my heart, and I love getting to apply that to my life and express that love. Since like 2007 I’ve been going to concerts and all that, and I used to do a lot of YouTube-ing, talking a lot with people about different artists and celebrities, editing pictures and videos of them. That’s something that I always loved doing growing up, and then I was like in my early adult years (and a couple years before that) going to concerts all the time and collecting merchandise and CDs. I really have a lot to show for my love of music, and I love getting to blog about my concert experiences. This post is about my Louis the Child concert experience, which was like my #64th that I’ve been to. So this has been a big part of my life, concertgoing, and even though I went like a year without attending a show recently I’ve finally been catching up and seeing some this year again. I was front row at this show with my boyfriend Matt, we got there right as the doors opened! The venue filled up a lot after we were stationed in the front, and it was a really cool crowd. Matt first introduced me to Louis the Child in like 2018 actually, with Save Me From Myself. Their new album is really good too, they played my favorite track off of it, Fade Away. So I did what I used to do all the time for concerts and did a photoshoot of my #ConcertAttire, and also an outfit/shoot for the merch shirt that I got from the show. This turned out pretty good, I liked it. We even got a few shots in Seattle but not too much because this was a long show! I’m glad about where I’m at, like I probably mentioned a few times in my last blog post, but these concerts this year really helped to both relax me and hype me about my life and I really see what going to all these does for me. I love expression and energy and all that and I get to express a lot of that with going to shows all the time. Read more to see the photoshoots!

I’ve renamed this blog post about 4 times, but I think I finally have a title that’s going to stick. Here I have two blogshoots, both using my new Givenchy lipsticks, although ones a pretty raspberry and the other is a light nude rose. Two completely different outfits, but both are representations of some new things in my life. I can’t wait until I get new clothes but for now, I have this to post!
