Odds are you may have already seen these photos over on Liebe Marlene, but I had to go ahead and post them anyways, because they are so perfect and amazing. It's like Wendy Bevan has both the keys to my heart and a direct telephone line into my brain.

And can we just talk about the hair? I would seriously have gotten a soft perm about 30 minutes ago if I wasn't afraid my hair was going to fall out from having to dye it regularly as well. Guess I gotta choose one: golden mane or dishwater blonde curls??

winning combination

This is my favorite combo at the moment: silk button-up, new cardi, leopard belt, jeans and boots. It got so cooold over the last few days, I really need to beef up my sweater collection, and fast.



Heeeeey guysssss...uh, anyways, I just scored this cardigan the other night, it's nice and soft and I want to replace the buttons with something dark brown and covered in woven leather. Then it will be the ultimate!

stud finder

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!

changing my spots

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.
