I know early summer is the time for bright colors and airy textures, but I'm in the mood for all things dark and mysterious right now. From abstract prints and muted tones, to gold accents and sleek surfaces, this is what's currently on my wish list:1. Fornasetti Sun chair, $3336 2. Morgaine Alexandra cuff, $75 3.

After yesterday's sunny-and-70's weather, I no longer feel like it's delusional to actively look for summery footwear, so I'm forging ahead. I should at least know what my options are, right?I was cruising the Internets working online when I noticed that a J. Crew ad had been following me for, like, five sites (have you noticed those Google Engage stalker ads?) and decided to have another look at their always-inspiring
