The Harpers Bazaar fashion market editor is my fashion inspiration of the week. I really need to take my red lipstick into the day more often.

Disco Inferno: Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 RTW

That color palette! the volume and proportions! The styling! My god, at some point this man needs to fuck-up SOMEWHERE. Sidenote: I wonder what he will be for Halloween...I can't imagine what could possibly top the whole camel toe incident.

How I'm going to beat the winter blues...

Thought you all might want to know why I have been distracted from blogging recently.

Everything this woman designs is like its been plucked out of my fantasy wardrobe.

A.P.C. autumn 11

I realize we probably have a good 6 weeks of summer left but the early season this year has me in the Fall layering spirit a bit prematurely. I became sort of smitten with A.P.C.'s lookbook, it is totally what I would call "Truro Chic".




kiiiiiinda trashy, kiiiinda farmer. I love it. I really need to find a military jacket during one of my louie's crawls...

STAY-CATION

The best 5 days of the summer. I finally have a bit of a tan, I got to spend an afternoon floating around a lake with new Truro pals, had a bbq, finally underwent the Chevy's experience (saddles instead of chairs, I KID YOU NOT) and better than anything got to spend an amazing few days with my best friend in the world- The lady responsible for these photos. I am sure she will be posting them all on her own blog once they're all edited, so I will post a link accordingly.










I love my friends and am finally settling into Truro. Dare I say it, but i was only in the city once over my entire vacation and it hasn't prevented me from smiling for one minute. xo

at least its funny?

Is this actually a joke?? This is honestly a failure of epic proportions. I'm gonna have to email this to Costa since he likes to be up-to-date on his sasquatch sightings.







Its like this car crash I can't turn away from. I wonder if Karl Lagerfeld just ran out of ideas and thought "well, they'll buy anything with a chanel logo on it so lets just see how far we can push it."?

But on the plus side, how hilarious will it be to see the idiot celebrities wearing fur pants just because they're Chanel? AWESOME.

Oh Stella

Unlike the majority of other designers who took the eighties structured trend WAY too far for Fall 2010, once again Stella has found the perfect happy medium between trend-driven form and her organic design sense.






Its just so easy. and simple. in the right way.
Don't get me wrong- there are a few pieces that I seem like flight risks to me (not shown and for good reason), but at the end of the day my inner young professional wants to wear all of these pieces and I'm buying nude shoes next week. I'm sold.

Okay, lets just ignore the fact that I just posted about Fall clothing in the middle of July and skip right to her resort 2011 collection.








and THAT is how you look like a lady in 2011. I'm bananas for it.

EAMES

One in every style, every color. I am graduating from pyrex to eames in the world of kitschy collectables. Leave it to me to love a chair so much.
