I haven't made a Barbara set in forever! She will always be one of my favorite models and these pictures of her are so flawless :) Just a summery set, I don't have much to say today... But I have a date tonight, so I have to figure out what to wear... ;) Have a great week everyone, I love you all! <3 xx

Random Friday set! I've been babysitting 4 of my little cousins and just put them all to bed though who knows how long it will take for them to fall asleep. Dipped my feet in the pool a bit and now I think I'm gonna watch some Netflix until my aunt and uncle get home from seeing Man of Steel. I'm seeing it on Monday, has anyway seen it yet? I heard it's EPIC!! And Henry Cavill = perfection <3
 
Have a lovely weekend everyone! :))

THIS SET IS FOR @sophiaspastic!!! HAPPY BELATED SWEET 16 :))) I really hope you like this set, I tried to kinda do your style, and I know you like this layout. I would have included a picture of Foxy Knoxy, but I couldn't find one that I could do justice in a set with this color scheme haha. But I did include Lucy and Troian, both gorgeous ladies you (and I) adore! I'm always here for you and I am so so glad we started talking last year because you are really amazing and genuine and strong. You are a LOVELY writer and I feel so fortunate to know you! Also we're awesome pen pals :) Please take care of yourself because you will go far if you put your mind to it and I wish the best for everything for you because things will look up, I know <3
 
Love you lots <3 xx

*My lovely and loyal Depth readers, please read all of this! Thank you <3*
 
Clearly I don't remember how to make a set... -____- But hey, that picture of the curly hair and polka-dot top under Daniel's pic... Is me! :))
 
ANYWAY IT'S HERE EVERYONE, IT'S HERE! My Depth playlist! I made it on Spotify first before realizing a lot of you can't listen to it on there and it doesn't have all the songs I wanted because Spotify didn't have all of them so therefore I prefer my new favorite music site, 8tracks! If you have an account, please follow me and I'll follow back! Here's the Depth playlist on 8tracks, hope you all enjoy: http://8tracks.com/brunettesilhouette/depth
 
And because @hijabikebabi also suggested it, here's the Spotify link as well. I suggest playing it on shuffle because the songs are all kinda in order by artist, which irks me but it's hard to add them entirely randomly xP https://play.spotify.com/user/shantays/playlist/6XU3lCTtpbgNLh2mqOdTDp
 
NEXT BIT OF INFO... This is the surprise, which hopefully you all will be excited about, those of you who have finished reading Depth anyway. I'll make this so it's not really a spoiler so even if you haven't finished Depth yet, you can read this news. And the news is... *drumroll*
 
I decided to make a prequel-esque novella to Depth!!! See, instead of an epilogue (which I never really felt right about in the first place), I'm going to do a novella (which is a shorter novel-type story) in Beck's POV, mostly prior-to Depth's timeline. So this new novella is sort-of like a spin-off prequel because I really wanted to explore Beck a little more and give you (and myself! hehe) a look into his past to dive deeper into the details maybe not so throughly explained in Depth. This, of course, is going to be a very rough draft as well and I will not be posting it on Figment until I've finished it because that's what I want to do. I'm not sure how long it will be, but I hope to finish it before school starts back. But I'll keep you all updated! It will be a challenge to write completely in a guy's POV though I am really excited because, well, I love Beck and I think he deserves some more words! I think it makes more sense to do this than an epilogue.
 
Also, I MIGHT do another novella after this one in Shiloh's POV, which will take place in the post-Depth timeline. I'm not sure on that one yet. I think it would be pushing it/dragging the story out too much.
 
For right now, I'm just focusing on the Beck one, which is tentatively titled... Gravity. You can read the prologue here (advised: if you've finished Depth), and I will let you know when the whole thing is posted. http://figment.com/books/654659-Gravity-
 
So what do you all think? I know some of you will probably have doubts and of course I myself do, but I just want to try this and see where it goes. I am so proud of Depth and I just really feel like I can't completely let go of all these characters until I give them a little more explanation. Of course, since I'm not doing an epilogue, I do like some things open-ended. Anyway, this is what I want to write now. I'm not ready for a whole new story and new characters just yet. I hope you all understand and I hope you all are excited too. Please please please let me know your thoughts, and you can always PM me if you don't want to comment :))
 
Have a marvelous week everyone! I'm volunteering at VBS this week at my church so I have to get up early... Time for bed xP

I can't even read in the car without getting a headache so I don't know why I thought making a set in the car was a good idea. Anyway, here's my slight twist on the nautical trend :))
 
I'll be home from my 2-day mini vacation tonight sometime but I will try to have my Depth playlist... And a surprise (concerning Depth) up tomorrow or Monday! Hope you all have a great weekend! <3

"Summer of my life, not doing what I should."
~Lana Del Rey, Driving In Cars With Boys {recently started really liking her music, I actually prefer her unreleased songs and remixes the most!}
 
http://brunettesilhouette.tumblr.com
http://sunset-calvary.tumblr.com
 
So I think Lana is one of THE most beautiful people ever to grace this planet. Seriously not fair. This Vogue Australia shoot will always be one of my favorites of her. #majorgirlcrush
 
I didn't use to like her music really at all, but then I heard one of her old, unreleased songs and I was like "WAIT I ACTUALLY LIKE HER VOICE" and her lyrics are great too. She's definitely got a unique sound to her. Here are the songs I like, only a couple of which that are actually on her albums:
 
-Hollywood's Dead
-Never Let Me Go
-Video Games (Sound Remedy Remix)
-Young And Beautiful
-Serial Killer
-Live Or Die
-Diet Mountain Dew
-D*mn You
-This Is What Makes Us Girls (Parkinson Remix)
-Paradise
-Velvet Crowbar
-Driving In Cars With Boys
-Born to Die
-Last Girl On Earth
-Hit And Run
-Summertime Sadness (Reich & Bleich Remix)
 
What do you think of Lana? If you have some other songs of hers you think I should really check out, let me know! :)
 
As for this outfit... I was just going for some contrast to the pictures, and it's a little outrageous but I like it haha! I love #mixingprints and colors <3
 
I need to watch the Teen Wolf season 3 premiere agh. I'll probably have time to watch it tomorrow night but I really don't think I can prepare myself for shirtless Daniel Sharman. I saw some gif sets on tumblr and I just about died; I don't know how I can handle the actually show. AND DYLAN O'BRIEN WITH LONGER HAIR oh gosh I can't. @lostinsuburbia have you watched it yet?!
 
Have a fantabulous rest of the week everyone, love you all :) xx

"The summer smells like sin and wonder."
~Goldroom feat. Chela, Fifteen {THIS SONG THIS SONG THIS SONGGGG is too good to even describe}

SHORT BLOGGY BELOW :)
 
1. This set was inspired by @limabean-347 and @hijabikebabi <333
2. Behati is SUCH A GODDESS. This is my new favorite shoot of her! It's for J. Crew Summer 2013 and as soon as I got an email advertising swimsuits from J. Crew, I knew I had to use these pictures in a set!
3. I really need some mint green shoes. I cannot wait until my mini 'vacation' next weekend so I can go to Zara, among others ;) Also I'm really too obsessed with white, especially almost all-white outfits. They're just so pretty and whimsy and clean I guess haha.
4. FOR MY DEPTH READERS (if you're reading this): I will be posting my Depth playlist soon, which is like 200 songs but I'll try to narrow it down... Anyway, on that same set I will link the Epilogue, SHOULD I choose to write one. I really like where it ends now and I think adding an epilogue is just kinda... unnecessary? To me, and to those of you who have commented you at least agree. However, I may write one and if I do, I will let you all know. I just kinda like how it's open-ended, at least on some things. I don't know what I'm saying but basically, a Depth epilogue is not a sure thing at this point. If anyone cares haha.
5. The new Vampire Weekend and Daft Punk CDs are SO LEGIT I LOVE THEM. And I cannot wait for The Maine on Tuesday! So much music, so little money...
6. I'm on season 4 of Supernatural now! Yay Cas. I have so many shows to watch. And I have lots of movies queued on Netflix too, one of which is Into The Wild, which I've been wanting to watch for forever. I watched House At The End of The Street the other day and I thought it was okay. JLaw was perf of course though.
7. Another week of work, then I get off a week to volunteer at VBS! :))
8. I think I've gotten quite boring, haven't I? Haha my brain is still trying to recuperate from school I guess xD
 
HAVE A FAB WEEK EVERYONE!!! <3 BTW, just so you all know, I do read all your comments and half the time I read them on the app so I don't reply because it's harder to reply on the app haha. Anyway, don't think I'm ignoring you, I'll try to be better about replying because your comments do mean so much!! :)

This has been a longgggg week for me! Work, my grandma having knee surgery (she's home now thankfully) finishing Depth (more on that tomorrow/Sunday as far as epilogue stuff and my Depth playlist etc I'll tag my readers when I post the set), more crazy weather, and finally starting my summer reading list! I'm currently reading The Catcher In The Rye. Okay I'll try to be on tomorrow night after church, have a great weekend everyone <3

315 pages. Approx. 156k words. That's what this very first, very rough, draft of Depth looks like. It is "finished" HOWEVER I know it ends a little more abruptly than I had intended, and I know there are some loose ends that need to be tied. SO I will probably be posting an epilogue sometime later this week. BUT to me, I felt like it shouldn't really go on much more because it just felt like it'd be dragging it out. Since it's just the rough draft, of course there are many things that need to be edited/changed/revised/added/taken out, but technically this is finished. I've been writing almost nonstop like this whole weekend and I really hope it all makes sense and you all like it. I know I know I know some things need to be fixed, but I just thought I'd post it anyway. MTW is my baby but I fell in love with Depth more I think, so I feel like it's so imperfect and I need to do all these things to make it better. But I'll stop boring you with my writer woes haha. In essence, please keep an open mind and I love you all so much!! I have to get to bed because I have my first day of my summer job starting tomorrow (well later today).
 
Sorry for babbling, I mean maybe you'll think it ends the way it should and isn't too soon and such. Whatever you think, please please please let me know! And keep in mind that a short epilogue is coming, which hopefully will answer some questions you might have about some of the more minor storylines :))
 
I love Depth with all my heart and I cannot believe I finished it so quickly (compared to MTW). Started it in January, finished it in May. Wow. Thank you all for believing in me and sticking with me! <333

Well what do I do with my life now? I finished the final episode of Lost today. I can't even think right now OMG. Now it's time to finish writing Depth and do all the other things I need to do. I'll be on my laptop later to get caught up on activity. Hope you all like this blogger style set, I kinda do :))
