First Alexa, then this dude...I still want to DIY myself a version of this Phillip Lim button up. I actually ordered myself a bunch of conical studs a few months ago in an uncharacteristic fit of motivation, only to find they were too large and looked way too much like rows of silver nipples. Anyways, I think maybe I'm feelin' gold a little more now, à la these gloves?

I think I literally stopped breathing for several seconds when I saw this first snap on the back of Worn Fashion Journal as part of a collage of shots from Vanessa Jackman's blog. This girl is LIVING THE DREAM, full speed ahead, no holds barred. This is what I would look like every day if both my balls and my wallet sextupled in size overnight.
So Georgia, fashion student, I salute you and your and your crazy-ass fringed Louboutins from the bottom of my heart. And Serah-Marie, thanks a bunch for sending me Worn, it rules so hard!
I think I've finally figured out why leopard is the one and only animal print I can tolerate in such large quantities: when examined closely...the spots look just like flowers! I can't believe this only just occurred to me. That is so, totally it you guys, because heck knows how much I love me a flower print (and flowers too, while we're at it...)
This button-up is my most recent leopard purchase, bringing the tally in my wardrobe up to 4 whole pieces, where only a few months ago there was none.
My fake Christmas list, continued. Part I is here.
a)
It's really hard for me to settle on just one style of Swedish Hasbeens to wish for...but at the moment, these are exactly what I need to be clomping around in, paired with thick black tights and something short and flowy.b)
I still don't own the Criterion Edition of this movie, one of my all time faves...but it'd be a lot cooler if I did!
c)
Clearly, my decade of choice. This book looks amazing.
c)
Even though I would just fill it with painfully inane things like grocery lists and notes from magazines I'm too broke to buy, an unlined, pocket size, glossy red Moleskine is truly a thing of beauty.
e)
Last year, my sister bought me the most beautiful teapot from Roost. It's incredibly delicate, and the fact that I have made it almost a full year without smashing it gives me confidence that I could own something as precious as this Jonathan Adler whale pitcher. I've been a bit obsessed with it ever since I saw the butter dish in Domino ages ago. And there's a shoe too!I'd love to know: what's the best/nicest/prettiest thing someone's ever given you for Christmas?
Truth be told, I don't like how I look in braids. Well really, I just don't like wearing my hair back at all. But I think braids themselves are so gorgeous, and I'm always envious of girls who look great in them, the big, messy, perfectly casual kind, like Caroline up there.
The closest I ever get is braiding my bangs every once in a while, but mostly just when I'm at home and they're bugging me. I look a little bit like a cockapoo when I finally take them down though.(photos from altamiranyc, Model Mayhem, kristina424, and Turned Out, click for original sources)
