Tumblr Tuesday: Wishlist Edition!

I've had my eye on this asymmetric draped blouse for a while; A delicate type pattern makes this sweet little bowtie the perfect blend of masculine and feminine; After several unsuccessful DIY attempts, it's time to graduate to a real flash diffuser; I tend to be pretty hard on bags--this big leather beauty looks like my next victim; I'm afraid I can no longer deny it: I want an iPad, please; My inner font fiend

I'm talking black-and-gray-nylon-and-elasticized-mesh ugly.When I'm carrying my camera around getting street style shots or working on a photography project, I prefer to carry a bag that
