winter style

i'm heading to nyc in 2 weeks so i thought i would gather some wardrobe inspiration for the colder weather ahead.

tips:
- colorful beanies
- basic bottoms
- bright scarves
- all neutral
- fur accessories
- bulky coats over jackets
- mixed prints

and for me.

write this down.
these are my sizes:
ring 5.5 // shoe 6.5 or 37 // dress xs or 0

i 1. wear the grossest sweat pants to bed everynight (but i love them and to adam's unfortunate eyes, i can't seem to part with them) so i could use a cute comfy pj set/romper

2. silver rings fo my fingas // 3. the best version of this popular bootie

4. i need practice tap tap tap // 5. make me a huxley that i can carry everywhere // 6. purrfect tank

7. a rain jacket // 8. hybrid grunge + scottish skirt // 9. continuuing my obsession with onesies

10. for the pair that huxly ruined, simple black sandals // 11. classic black satchel // 12. i hope your wifi dies
13. cat purrse // 14. fur collar coat // 15. more meowtal!

16. perfect pump // 17. what's a list without chevron? // 18. scottie tic tac toe

PBB or the Perfect Black Bag

hello. welcome the perfect black bag. and no it's not a celine or a mulberry or a balenciaga.

november outfit for the ones with low bank accounts

i like to spend my free time perusing the online shopping world, pretending to add things to my virtual shopping cart and then sadly realizing that the $300 pair of shoes in my barney's cart won't ever make it to my doorstep. so, i compiled a list of nicely priced items that will add some pizazz (what a gross word) to your closet and allow the banking gods to smile kindly upon you.  

delicate statement

this week has been rough, i think it might be the combination of hurricane weather, stress, work, and my daunting list of "things to do" that keeps popping up on my phone. i thought i would add some sparkle to your mid-week...

catbird bangles // sharktooth rings // of a kind bronze sugar ring // pocket necklace

black & white fall

below are some of my top picks for fall.  i love the idea of mixing textures and creating balance...and what a better way to do that with than black and white?  voila! a pencil + a sweater...duh.

1. acne wool leather sleeves biker jacket

2. yellow pencil skirt
3. polka dots!
4. chunky booties
5. tassel satchel
6. leather shorts

sheer

i like the idea of sheer. but dirty sheer with touches of color created by beads or embroidery.  especially nipple coverage sheer. man that takes dirty sheer to a whole 'nother level! (take note that many of these are from the 90s, elegant grunge.)

images from middle:  prada, spring 1997, exposed black bra, neon beaded, lace valentino s/s '12, beaded 1924 via the met)

now to satisfy your sheer craving--pleated white strapless tunic, tights--a given, holy cute blue stripe skirt, black sheer duh..and if need by go to your local craft store and dance through the aisles wrapped in tulle.

spring pickings

hello 90s. welcome back.
crop tops are KEY for this summer. pin-dotted grey skinnies, matched with rosegold spikes, and a glow.
i think you're ready for the summer. seriously though, that st. tropez is amazing. amazing amazing.

3. sheer/cream heart or dot tights
4. white frames of all kinds
5. ear warmers
6. lace up black booties

we wrote about how this was different
and how much sense this all made
the corners of my mouth went up every time
i read my "we."
if i could capture the individual moments
and string them together, i would tie the ends so tight
double knot it and all
hang them from every beam and corner of my mind
so they could chase away the shadows
that hide until i lose that shine.

i am obsesses with..

orange.black.yellow.bold.blocking.

the "anti-hot-mess" wardrobe

some summer essentials to avoid

let's be honest. i've worn that crop top at least once a week the past month.
