small, inconsequential note

stylesightings + the sartorialist

i just recognized this lovely lady in eddie's photos, and went back to confirm it was indeed the same blondie. she really dresses up casual basics in the best way.

head in the clouds

i am not as overwhelmed by this collection as i typically tend to be, but even on a lower note it cracks a joke, keeps you dreaming, and makes some pretty covetable pieces.

if this doesn't make you crave a red carpet i don't know what will

i die.

ohh...

acidinshort!

i found them.

black friday

almost, finally better. but not quite. latenight at work. probably for nothing....but i'll keep my fingers crossed anyway. between the sickness and a bad week at work i've been a bit down, but i'm sure it's nothing a good night's sleep, a morning in bed, and some time outside can't heal.

hope everyone enjoys their fridays :)


also: i'm really sorry the blog has been so lame lately....i'm hoping some time to myself this weekend will get me back on track. i've had very little of that recently and i'm looking forward to it.

nostalgia

i really like this editorial, but i'm not sure if it's because i remember reading this issue when i was traveling in asia a few summers ago...or just because i like the editorial.

i love the sequin hot pants, sheer blouse, chanel, and helmet. i tore this one out and brought it back home with me.

also...give me blunt hair and crazy sunglasses -- and i'm good to go.

could be 2009...right?

so now for something pretty

the beauty of self reflection

i hate putting up ugly things...but

my love of a stepfather sent this to me ('for your blog') and it's just so perfect.

i needed a laugh

statistically,
you still probably won't get laid

in summation: there's sooo many more men than women, and yet....?

it's perfect

and isn't that little red peeking out the best?

cuffed

this is SUCH a perfect addition to your arm....great with tshirts, soft dresses, anything really...it's in black and pony skin and frankly, kind of cheap. loooove.

pure wonder

i was told there'd be cake

so i still don't have a voice, apparently thanks to laryngitis. which means there is nothing i can do but not talk and drink lots of water. not talking is toorrrture. it also basically doesn't work when i'm at the office, so i've resorted to whispering when necessary.

i don't feel like myself, my throat hurts, and i just want to stay home curled up in bed until it passes (which reeeeally is unlike me, and probably how i got myself into this situation in the first place) but there is much to be done at work. so it goes.

the happy things: this eyelash graphic i saw on lolita; i love it. cooking dinners with friends, planning sleepovers. and a few lovely messages i received that put an unexpected smile on my face. we'll see... :)

also, i'm reading this book of essays called 'i was told there'd be cake' and they are hilarious and so personally relevant at times i feel that i could have written passages myself. i HIGHLY recommend it. plus, it's by a lovely girl named sloane, which i have always adored and wanted to name a daughter. along with james. and sophia.

it may be just a navy sweater

but i really like it....

sheer slouch

my favorite things :: navy, black, sheer, slouchy tanks.
hellooooo

summer heat of all sorts

umm i love this one.

linda evangelista by steven meisel 1989 via ecstasy lover



the tans the heat the colors the sweat, it's hottttt.
oh, summer.

oh my wheeeen will i be better? the lack of voice and wheezing starrrting to get to me.
i'm sorry i'm not around...though probably no one notices anyway.

long waves

i hope everyone had a fun weekend :)
