Annnnnd, the fifth sighting of the Etro capes pops up in this stunning editorial in the latest L'Officiel. I feel like this hunt for the etro cape has yielded way more results than I ever would have expected..it sneaks up on me quick. Anyway, I don't know about you guys (students out there?), but this week is officially hell week..I have 9 days to complete 25 pages of writing and take a french exam SOOOO, don't be surprised if things slow down a little bit. Love you guys! Best readers ever!

Something about this picture of Emma Watson made me stop and stare for literally a couple of minutes. I tried to look away but just couldn't. Something about the combo of the new hair, her British-ness, and THAT BEAUTIFUL COAT...fashiongasm.

Dark hair, multi-layers, satin, sheer, velvet, wool, and all in a muted palette (except for that shock of red on her lips!). This is so great.

One of my lovely readers Jade e-mailed me this photo (the fourth in a series) of this glorious Etro cape. I told you guys I'd post it whenever/wherever I found it and I wasn't kidding! I can't imagine having something like this in my closet.

I usually stay away from the massively posted celebrities like Kate Bosworth, Alexa Chung, and Erin Wasson just because I always figure you guys have seen them already. Found this picture deep in my computer tonight and something about those shiny pants just spoke to me. I've had the best weekend ever with my family, good luck to everyone getting back to the grind tomorrow!

My hair has only ever been brown (and a little blonde when I colored it), and I'm not saying I want my hair to be green or orange, but I'm obsessed with the color blocking happening here. Something ghostly about it, in a good way.

flea market

I think I read that she got the skirt at some street market. It looks like a tablecloth, which is why I love it. And her sister made the shirt. How cool is that?

Parties and cutoffs and Saturday. mmmmm. Spending a lazy Saturday morning making waffles and wearing my favorite cashmere sweater to stay warm (actually it's my boyfriends, but it's mine now!), wishing you all something along the same lines!

Black Friday...I think I actually might be going shopping today which is crazy but also kind of necessary because of the absurdity of the sales. Wish I was buying things like this dress!

Dots and leopard belts, loose belts through denim shorts, man candy, and wide brim hats. Oh yeah, and I have a new header that I'm in love with thanks to Jenna from Jendyfriend..Hope you guys like it!

Happy Thanksgiving! I'm posting these simple portraits since they're beautiful and fall-esque and why not? I'm inspired by her short hair and drapey shirt.

I am a one hour plane ride away from three of my favorite women in my life: my mom, my sister, and my best friend. Currently at the airport with a soy chai tea, my favorite stripey shirt (that I just found a hole in! noooo), and my book (still making my way through Bulgakov's Master and Margarita).

ALSO, on a different note. Now that it's cold outside, I'm thinking it's time to change up my header to be a little more appropriate. I'm not so great with photoshopping and those things, so if anyone would be willing to take the time to collaborate on a header with me, send me an email at pepperandchips@hotmail.com...I'm open to pretty much anything.

I remember how in love I was with this Louis Vuitton collection when it made its debut, it's still so good to revisit.

Considering I don't really have a way of doing outfit posts these days, I thought I'd post an old shot from photobooth. I know my legs are super white, but I'm pale and I like it! Coat&Boots, Urban Outfitters, Skirt, AA

I love this Crystal Renn editorial. She has for sure been making a place for herself within the industry and while I don't want to get into the myriad of discussions of her figure and size and blahblah, I think she looks really healthy and SUPER chic in these neutrals that are complicated but simple at the same time. I want a white dress! I don't care what season it is!

Sometimes I don't have anything to say to go with these photo posts, but sometimes I think its better that way.
*edit:actually, I changed my mind. I've been looking for new jewelry that isn't obscenely expensive but that isn't massively overproduced either..somewhere in the middle and something that's funky and cute. Anyone have any ideas?

I'm intrigued by this girl and her glasses. You know I love me a chic woman in specs.

The sky can't decide if it wants to be cloudy or blue today. I have a great book to read and a comfy sweater, sometimes it's the little things.

Doing nothing and looking great. Saw Harry Potter and loved it (what did you guys think?) and now I'm drinking hot chocolate and avoiding the torrential rain and thunderstorms outside. California weather is weird.

It's friday again, hooray! This editorial was deep in the myriad of folders on my computer, but I thought they deserved to see some light. They're from Elle UK March 2008, and I'm loving all the color and texture! I need to make sure I don't start dressing all boring now that it's cold outside.

Hmmm thursday already? I'm going to a James Bond themed party tomorrow night and can't wait to dress up like a bond girl. Until then, I'm being inspired by this picture SO MUCH right now. I don't know what it is. Everything about it just gets me.

Saw these two photos on the selby and decided that when I have my own permanent place, I'll have a shower and sink like this. My mom has an outdoor shower that I used all summer, and now I'm in love with the whole idea, plus, a pretty sink makes washing dishes way more fun.

Caroline Trentini so often stars in those American Vogue editorials with the grey background and caught mid-jump by one fashion photographer or another. She surprised me with this one! Color, a real cityscape, and super cute sixties hair and outfits.
