Crime Aesthetic

Love leaped out in front of us like a murderer in an alley leaping out of nowhere, and struck us both at once.

I don’t get these posts that go like “part of me wants to be a hot girl at the bar and the other part of me wants to read and sip tea in a bookstore”

like you can wear red lipstick and a leather jacket and sip tea and dance in the rain and go to the gym and curl up in bed and get turnt the fuck up and go to church

you can literally have it all sis

the world is yours

When I'm having a bad day I like to imagine myself as the main character of a fantasy novel and main characters always go through a shit load of tragedy but still manage to stay hot and it makes me feel a lot better.

I really can’t stand North America’s Version of luxury, it’s far too flashy for my taste. I really appreciate the quiet opulence of Europe.

Skiing in Switzerland, relaxing on the beach in the south of France and high tea in London.

*All these things and more will come into fruition*

✨ 2pretty’s Motivational Quote Library ✨

I have been collecting my favorite quotes for the past few years now. Many of these have gotten me through tough classes, long study nights, and reminded me to work hard for what I want most in life. Save this post and read it when you need it. But keep in mind, reading motivational quotes won’t get your work done. It only inspires a spark of motivation. You have to actually do the work afterwards too.

If opportunity doesn’t knock, build a door (Milton Berle)

Think about exactly what you don’t want and then do the direct opposite

The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person who is doing it 

Build your own dreams, or someone else will hire you to build theirs (Farrah Gray)

Without hard work, nothing grows but weeds (Gordon B. Hinckley)

Success comes from knowing that you did your best to become the best that you are capable of becoming (John Wooden)

80% of success is just showing up

If you do what you’ve always done, you’ll get what you’ve always gotten (Tony Robbins)

Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up (Thomas Edison)

If you really want the key to success, start by doing the opposite of what everyone else is doing (Brad Szollose)

Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough (Og Mandino)

The question isn’t who is going to let me; it’s who is going to stop me (Ayn Rand)

It is never too late to be what you might have been (George Eliot)

A good plan violently executed now is better than a perfect plan executed next week (George Patton)

The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out (Robert Collier)

Don’t judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant (Robert Louis Stevenson)

Either you run the day or the day runs you (Jim Rohn)

The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today (H. Jackson Brown, Jr.)

Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself (George Bernard Shaw)

I attribute my success to this – I never gave or took any excuse (Florence Nightingale) 

You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do (Henry Ford)

Formula for success: rise early, work hard, strike oil (J. Paul Getty)

Success is dependent on effort (Sophocles)

Change your life today. Don’t gamble on the future, act now, without delay (Simone de Beauvoir)

Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure (Confucius)

You simply have to put one foot in front of the other and keep going. Put blinders on and plow right ahead (George Lucas)

Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day (Jim Rohn)

It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop (Confucius)

Productivity is never an accident. It is always the result of a commitment to excellence, intelligent planning, and focused effort.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit 

Commitment is staying true to what you said you were going to do long after the mood you said it in had left. 

Don’t ask what’s the least you can do to be good. Ask what’s the most you can bare to be great. 

Ask yourself if what you are doing today is getting you closer to where you want to be tomorrow. 

Don’t study until you get it right. Study until you can’t get it wrong. 

Get up early enough to set your intentions for the day in stone. A good morning is the beginning of a successful day. You are capable of everything you want to do today. You are strong, secure and able to achieve. There is no task too hard when you believe in every ability you hold, you are determined to hit every goal. Do not give up on yourself.

Every positive change in your life begins with a clear, unequivocal decision that you are going to either do something or stop doing something.

Hard work will never betray you.

Aggressive goals require aggressive work ethic. 

The best way for you to predict your future is to create it (Abraham Lincoln)

The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing (Walt Disney)

The price of excellence is discipline. The cost of mediocrity is disappointment (William Arthur Ward) 

You need to understand that studying requires extensive training. Study habits, amount of sleep, timing. Therefore, you should see it as a sport. In order to get better you need to repeat and practice. Your brain needs to be recited all this information for long term memory. It’s a hard process, I know, but trust me you’ll get there.

You get what you work for

You won’t have this day again, so make it count.

i am in love with decadence and decay, so catch me dancing circles in a soiled edwardian wedding gown with the silk splitting at the seams, or walking to the drugstore in old furs and faded lace lingerie from the ‘70s. my closet is an ode to luxury that has lost its luster, like an old hollywood star fading into the 21st century, face blurring with age but her old grammy sits tarnished on the mantel.

in the age of fast fashion and blogging we are racing against time to stay fresh, but i say, to hell with your outlets and five dollar deals. give me organza and raw silk, tiaras missing diamonds, old prom dresses covered in cigarette ashes with that sickly peony scent lingering in the folds. i want to bleed for fashion, so please bury me in chanel.
