Today was a day I barely felt like breathing. In the epitomy of laziness I spent most of the day in bed in my pajamas munching on fruit and watching television (not even reading W&P, for shame!).
In the evening some energy and desire to move around stirred in my limbs. It seemed like a good opportunity to take pictures by streetlight, which I had been meaning to experiment with for awhile (I love the glow they give at night). Unfortunately, I had barely set up my tripod and taken a few test shots when I saw lightning. Hope that it was merely heat lightning dissolved with the quick grumbles of thunder and the first splatters of rain. I quickly collected my things and hurried back to my dorm room before the storm set in fully...this is why I am usually a planner and the weather forecast is the first thing to pop-up when I turn my computer on. Here's the shots I did get.
Outfit details: shirt- some shop in Japan (I know, how specific), skirt- American Eagle altered by me, shoes- some shop in Hawaii, belt- secondhand

Sigh at the rain. It's been miserable on the other side of the state as well. It's rained every single day this week. Street lights cast an awesome glow. And War and Peace! You are definitely ambitious.
who would've thought that rushed photos taken under a streetlight could be so pretty. i realy love the vibe of these pictures. and your outfit is pretty as always. yay to lazy days!
i'm beginning to want to steal some of your shoes!
and the article on everybodyisugly is fabulous, i struggled with my boobs for awhile too.
It's hard to see the top in the lighting here but I'm very intrigued by it.
I love the glow here. I hope you get out there again soon, in dry weather!
Cute skirt and sandals.

I've always found streetlight to be so magical. Its really superficial but gorgeous...

I think your experiment was successful but I'd love to see more of this from you. You are obviously creative, I think there is a lot you could derive from this kind of lighting. Yet another inspirational post to get my out of the house!

night light is one of my biggest obsessions... I think these pics came out lovely! more often than not I am up in the really wee hours, half asleep and relishing the surrealness of that time of day... err night...
