Already Fell

I am such a clothes hoarder that my own (old) stuff almost qualifies as vintage. I bought this skort (yes, SKORT--a shorts/skirt combo that's like a mullet for your arse) at Express circa 2000-2001 and I've had it so long it's practically in again.DIY crop top; Express romper; Jeffrey Campbell shoesFunny story about the crop top: I was chatting with a friend when I noticed her looking at me quizzically."Did you get

Tumblr Tuesday: Pixelated Necklaces and Rainbow Skulls

It took a moment for my eyes to adjust to this awesome pixelated necklace; I love Noemie's casually badass stance in this picture; A neatly ordered row of rainbow skulls is strangely beautiful; The layered lettering on this type poster makes me want to try something new with calligraphy; I've ALWAYS wanted to wear a skirt that looks like a rose; These Jeremy Scott frames seriously creep me out--but I like it.

Photo Diary: Azucar Weekend

Last weekend, I: Fell in love with a jacket (yes, AGAIN) at Brush Factory; "worked" at PopShop and got my sugar rush on eating salted caramels, birthday cake fudge, AND a fried Snickers bar; checked out the Final Friday happenings up and down Main Street; got sick and spent the better part of Saturday on the couch; recovered in time for an hour-long bike ride by the river on Sunday morning; and cooked--then ate--an

Banana Pants

Moda Int'l sweater; thrifted pants; vintage bag; Nine West wedgesLately I've been sticking to classic shapes in solid colors, like this cropped sweater and the banana-yellow pants I picked up on my last thrifting adventure. Nothing too complicated or over the top, just light, effortless, and easy. Wouldn't it be nice if everything was this simple?

Tumblr Tuesday: Bacon Pie and Shaggy Confetti Jackets

Even with painted black walls and ceiling, this bedroom is surprisingly light and feminine; There's something alluring about the idea of wearing a starry galaxy on your butt; Who wouldn't want a collection of shaggy confetti jackets and colorful shoes to match?; A series of "desserts" made of meat is a simultaneously appetizing and gross take on food culture; Love the bold colors and tie-dye-like texture in this painting; Always, boo. Always.Find more inspiration at

Backyard Island

Zara tee, thrifted shorts, DIY scarf necklace, Jeffrey Campbell shoes Spent the weekend running around pulling clothes for an upcoming TV segment (Tuesday morning, Fox19, BE THERE), remembering what it feels like to have an actual backyard, and wondering if Beau would get along with a dog.* I figured a certain level of comfort was in order, so I wore a classic tee-and-shorts combo with my DIY scarf necklace and The Ugly Shoes, and it
