Shop It Like It’s Hot Part 2 // Continuum

Even a cursory glance inside new Vine Street boutique Continuum reveals a range of highly Instagram-able vignettes, from the palm-print wallpaper to the meticulously arranged accessories. Don’t just look at it from outside, though–step in and take a look around, if only to find out where that strange pink glow is coming from. I popped in one extremely nosy Saturday, and wound up chatting with Continuum owner Ericka Leighton-Spradlin. Predictably, she studied fine arts at...

Muse-ings // Sassy Keys and A Dose of Gold

1. A sassy key that truly expresses the way I feel when I lose my keys // 2.

Muse-ings // Typographic Paper and Bullet Stools

1 / I’ve been obsessed with this photo/these shoes/those pants for months now.  Where’s the slightly-more-affordable knockoff? 2/ I love the stark yet playful contrast of this typography wrapping paper. 3/ I’m not a violent person (mostly), but these stools that look like bullet shells are nothing short of brilliant. 4/ I like to think the sleek, sophisticated lines of The Row’s new fragrances are what I’d choose for my own perfume line. You know,...

Muse-ings: Fancy Shopping Carts and Floral Headgear

1. I tend to vacillate between extreme shapes and go for either skin-tight pencil skirts or super-full circle skirts. Right now, I’m in a circle skirt state of mind. 2. If real shopping carts were this glamorous, picking up groceries in the company of 200 of your closest neighbor-strangers might not be such a tedious chore. 3. I’m in dire need of a vacation and need to go to WHEREVER THIS IS I DON’T CARE...
