My Cousin Vinny

The roomie

Monday night my roommate and I went to an event called We Heart Japan. The event was a lot of fun and all the proceeds went to the relief fund in Japan. In all honesty, my roommate and I basically drank for Japan. Hey, it's philanthropic. Anyway...I decided to "curl" my hair. Back when I was a teenage I had super curly hair. Ringlets. For some reason at the age of 21 my hair started to lose its curl. Now it's just kinda wavy. Monday night I decided to curl it and I ended up looking like Marisa Tomei from "My Cousin Vinny". I kinda dug it. My outfit was a last minute choice. I love red. I need to get more red in my wardrobe.

*Little fact: Everyone thinks I was named after Marisa Tomei. I wasn't. I was named after Marisa Berenson who was a model and actress in the 70s. Her mom was legendary fashion designer Elsa Schiaparelli. My mom knows how to pick a name :)
