the way to layer

This is inspiring me to do all sorts of tucking and folding and manipulating to get an end result that looks like this!

I don't think I knew cellophane could be used in a way that would ever make me want to wear it as a headpiece or wrap all of my furniture in it but hey...there's a first time for everything.

Hey everyone, sorry for the major slowdown, I had no idea when I left for this vacation that I would only have internet access once every couple of days! Regardless, it's been great with snowball fights and sledding and skiing (and falling...), a really really good time. Found these pictures of Behati that captivate me so much for some reason, I especially love the last. Are you guys all ready for new years? got your resolutions ready?

Sorry if these pictures seem a bit melancholic, but I think they're the perfect Christmas photos (how cute are those red shorts at the top right?!)...anyway, this is a scheduled post because I didn't want to wake up and tend to my blog, I have family time and Christmas dinner, although I have a feeling I'll be giving some updates on what Santa brings this year later in the evening. To everyone (those who don't celebrate Christmas, too!), happy holidays and I hope you have an amazing Christmas. Thanks for being such great readers, I'm beyond happy to have you:)

morning blues, walking shoes

Ever since I started college my following of the Olsen sisters has seriously diminished. I feel like I used to know every single picture that had been taken of them and I had outfits memorized. I don't have the time anymore that I used to, so now I only see red carpet event photos or things like that, but there are days when I just want to appreciate the old days. I don't think I'd ever wear a newsboy cap, but obviously, ashley looks fantastic.

hoof boots

When I saw a post over at Garbage Dress that featured these horse-foot hoof boots, I was a little bit put off. I mean, it's not like I have an amazing shoe collection or anything, as a matter of fact I go to school in a place that requires a mini-hike to get from class to class, so while I usually lust after shoes I see online, I don't buy them. I'm an easy shoe person. I barely know where I'm going with this, but what I'm trying to say is I'm kind of surprised at the fact that I kind of took a liking to them when I saw them styled like this. I guarantee you I will never buy them because I'm too much of a wuss, but if I ever have a lace bodysuit and cape to wear for some ethereal day, I might actually go to the hoof boots. They're kind of beautiful in their weirdness.

The Blogger Interviews #4

Raych from That's Chic

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

1) What was your favorite outfit as a kid?
Gosh, I was a rather dorky kid – in fact, I still am. I can’t say I’m proud of the fashion choices I made prior to 2004, but I can say that glittery jeans and florals made common appearances – I’m a 90s kid!

2) What inspires you?
I never find an easy way to answer this because I draw inspiration from everything around me. I probably would have to say that the clothing itself inspires me. When I see a piece that I am magnetically drawn to, I just get this euphoric glee to see how many different ways I can wear that one piece.

3) Which blogger would you like to trade wardrobes with for a day?
I would have to say Judy Aldridge. Jane has a pretty sick closet, but her mom helped her get there! I can’t imagine the bundles of amazzzzzzing vintage Judy has collected over her years of travel. To even get a jist of it boggles my mind. Luxirare is pretty high up there. To own one of her hand-made delicates would make my year.

4) What’s the best advice anyones ever given you?

Don’t take yourself too seriously.


5) What piece of clothing would you save if your house was on fire and why?

This is a toughie, but I’d probably save my Harputs Market swacket. I (1) spent too much money on it, (2) it’s like 10 outfits in one.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

6) Name 3 of your favorite smells?
Wet asphalt, boys' clothes, and apple cinnamon.

7) What’s your favorite collection of all time?
I have always been a fan of Alexander McQueen's eccentricity especially back early 2000. I think the house of ChloƩ will always have a special place in my heart. When Chloe was following Paulo's vision, that was definitely my favorite Chloe era (still can't dismiss Phoebe's work making Chloe the iconic brand it is today) . Just loved his modern twist on things, plus he had the best shoes.


8) If you were having dinner with 3 people dead or alive, who would it be and what would you eat?

Martin Margiela. Lady Gaga. Plato. We will have a wonderful picnic with finger-sandwiches cut into shapes of a shark with smoked salmon.

9) What movie always makes you cry?
Artificial Intelligence. Something about that movie hits a sweet spot.


10) What other hobbies do you have besides blogging?

Can't think of any at the top of my head - I'm definitely a closet geek. I think I do enough gaming to consider it a hobby. I do love scouring random cities with my boyfriend for sweet shopping spots and eateries.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

11) What are some of your best shopping tips?
Don't buy something just because you have the money. Wait till you find something you genuinely love (and not because it's trendy), and by that time, you can afford it!


12) What’s one thing you haven’t done that you would like to do before you die?

Sneak into Bryant Park tents. Get shot by a renowned street photographer. Watch Dirty Dancing. Skydive. Own a shiba inu.

woke up early to get my hands on some of the rodarte for target items and walked away mostly disappointed, but one fantastic navy and white striped shirt richer. NOW I'm going to wear stripes and draw all over my walls so that hopefully they look like this one day..(yeah right, my landlord would kill me!)

This morning was rough. I just felt like crap because I'm too tired and when I'm too tired, it's usually a downhill slope. My sister made me feel better and now that I'm finally home and done with all my errands and things, I'm gonna curl up and watch La Vie en Rose, because that always makes me feel better, and probably fall asleep while doing so.
As for these photos, I found one of them via Tavi and had to find the rest, and they're all equally as good and GENIUS. I love malgosia. How she makes me want to wear a skirt made out of mops, I do not know.
And finally, I have a TON of ebay auctions ending within the next few hours, and there's great quality stuff for cheap from places like urban outfitters, american apparel, free people, etc, to check it out go HERE!
