Apparently I'm very into beige at the moment.
Every so often I become ridiculously obsessed with a colour to the point where I need it all up in and around every single aspect of my life. I spent 2011 buying every burgundy item of clothing in the greater New York area, 2012 was a mint explosion and today I've come to the realisation that at the moment...it's....beige. I don't know why, just beige. So much beige. Everywhere beige.
The moment of realisation came for me when I was in the Apple store with dear Papa McG getting a new iPad (very delayed birthday present, my old one may or may not have met its end in a slurpee-related incident late last year) and when the time came to choose a case a dark force awakened inside of me.
"BEIGE," I said to father, "I WILL HAVE THE BEIGE ONE FOR MY OWN." And it was done.

Am I an adult now? Is that why? Will I get the urge to cut my hair off and get really into tribal patterns? Maybe I'm just going through a very transitional period in my life and the safety of a neutral shade is comforting. We may never know. But it is here and it is in my heart and it will soon be everywhere else too. I don't half-ass colour obsessions. I've worn that jumper two days in a row and have every intention of doing so again tomorrow.
The other highlight of my life is of course the return of the iPad. My heart is once more whole. I can read UK Glamour again without having to trek to the imported magazine store in the city and when I use it I feel like I'm running a business/in Spy Kids. I just need to maybe not get back into Hay Day because that was a bad time for all involved. I bought so many diamonds.
Uni is over now for the semester but the next few weeks are going to be ridiculous. I'm going to Europe in June and before then I have to finish all my assignments, pack up literally everything I own and be ready to move out. Also decide where I'm actually going to live. Keep forgetting that one. Probably shouldn't. Yolo.
Things I am enjoying that are not beige:

PS. Just realised that where I'm sitting while typing this is also very in keeping with the colour scheme. Beautiful.
