Art collecting is an expensive hobby

I admit that I am not good of an artist because I can't draw. But I sure do have the best eye in picking out great art. Like this one by James Jean:

(image *borrowed* from http://processrecess.com)

I need to get a print of this and hang it near my vanity for juxtaposition. The above print is call: (what else?) VANITY.

He is also the artist behind the "Fairy" collection from Prada a while back.

Finally I am mobile!

After waiting for about 1 week, I finally received my new driver's license from the DMV. Meanwhile, I couldn't drive as I went to renew it pretty late and realise that you no longer can receive the new card on the spot, they need about 1 week's time and then they will mail it to you. That's coz' of some new technology they're using to make those card to prevent fraud. So he has been my Ahmad for a week, I would say I don't mind at all.

On the picture below you'll see my old license. It was done when I first moved here almost two years ago (separate entry on that). I look good I think. A little more feminine and demure than the reality.

Then now you see the angry, unsatisfied criminal look on my face on the new license right below the old one. What's wrong? Sigh, After waiting 3.5 hours at the registration office to have your picture taken, anyone could look like that.

Plus they updated the design with random animals roaming (how come I never see them running around happily at all?). And that title font! God save the DMV.

XOXO

Following up from my Anna Sui x Target Collection post::

These are what I got so far.......
Cotton Butterfly Text Tee Shirt - GraySilk Printed Tunic Dress - BlackSilk Patterned Dress - Multi (it's sooooo Blair)
Seersucker Dress w/Lace - Black
Bib Tee Shirt - Gray with Black Lace Fringe Cotton Necklace Tee Shirt - Purple———Feel like returning this one 'coz I spent too much. what do you think?

These are what I returned so far.......
Sheer Dot Jacquard Dress - Black (he didn't know I hate Polka dots, plus it was too sheer.)

Plus one more black dress that is no longer on the website. (looked like a dress you wear to a funeral with a polka dot mesh sleeves)
So, did I buy too much or wat? I'll continue to stalk my Target store until the collection ends. I know for sure that some of them will go on sale.They are not that super cheap anyways, especially the dresses, they cost on average about USD60++. Well, it's a small fraction to the usual Anna Sui price tag of USD300!
