Tumblr Tuesday: Tree Beds and Driftwood Horses

I wanted a canopy bed SO badly when I was little--this tree bed would've been right up my alley; QR codes seem to be everywhere these days, but I've never seen a QR code in 3-D;  ABT soloist Misty Copeland (she's a favorite of PRINCE, y'all) has been an inspiration since I first read about her in Suede magazine years ago; This horse sculpture created from found driftwood is grotesquely lovely; I love that the

Current Obsession: Camera Purses

Camera bags exist to serve a very specific function: to safely and securely hold camera equipment. Most have padded compartments designed to fit a DSLR camera body, a lens or two, a flash, and maybe spot for cash and keys. Unfortunately, they're usually UGLY.

Ain’t No Party Like a Blogger Party

A few days ago, a group of Cincinnati style bloggers and friends got together at Neon's for our (perhaps annual?) Holiday Style Bash!

Tumblr Tuesday: Skull Chandeliers and Black Unicorns

I love the infusion of humor into something as traditional as a crystal chandelier; A shoe covered in chiffon and crystals is like an evening gown for your foot; Tried-and-true Hollywood glamor is just what I need right now; I know unicorns aren't real, but I grew up adoring Rainbow Brite and She-Ra so throw me a bone; If I were President Of Everything (TM), this warning would be REQUIRED; I'm not usually into polka

In Search of: Sleek Flat Ankle Boots

Sometimes I have trouble finding exactly what I'm obsessing over looking for, but I know it exists! This time, I'm in search of flat ankle boots that are sleek, not rugged.They need to:NOT look like something a cowboy/biker/member of a grunge band would wear on casual Friday.Have a bit of a heel or wedge so I'm not forced to walk like a duck. Completely flat flats make me walk weirdly.Adjust to properly fit my
