crush

Unending girl crush on Yasmin Sewell. She's a [epic] fashion consultant and blogs for UK Vogue. She's my perfect blend of contemporary minimalism meets ethnic detailing. -- And the hair! I want the hair!

this to this

Am I saying Natalia Zakharova looks like a lobster? Yes. Well, no. Well... er, no. But Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 show does certainly bring to mind United Thread's colorful & preppy wildlife archival prints. Gush.

i want you

1, 2, 3, 4, 5 

 

Slim, cropped, patterned pants. Silky ones. I want you in a dirty way. I'll make you feel naughty with huge 5 inch sculptural wedges and layers of more patterns with scarves and tanks. But it's ok, I'll clean you up to meet my parents with a crisp white button down.
 

 bag, blouse, necklace, shoes

Take those Emma Cook's for instance. You fit right in with the Celine copycat American Apparel carryall that was just released (causing bloggers everywhere to flip a lid! now me too?) and the clogs from Fall that we all already own. Add some color and some pattern. Et voila. Cool as a cuke.

You are my summer!

// cat eye sunnies. you can come too.

interiors

We're moooooooving! Looking forward to redecorating: camel, navy, yellow, white. And, lucky gal that I am, I happen to date a sneaker-geekin' man who insists on bright colors. So, pops of pink! That's what he means, right?

// lots of art.

round

Been weighing the risks of a Willy Wonka moment with my recent love for rounded sunnies.

Ahem, yes, part the crowds... my celeb status & super cool glasses 

need you to move out of my super cool way...

moving

BF and I are moving out of our first home together. Bittersweet. It's been perfect. We've been busy soaking up the last month we have here. Bike ride to Stardust, then drinking sweet tea on a picnic blanket in our yard.

Tom Ford sunnies & nautical stripes

// BF is a total model wannabe, eh? I call this, our future home looks great from here.

b&w

Currently giving into my love affair with hello hello! design. First found her thanks to Matchbook Mag's January issue... But I really love Katie's simple, black and white sketches. Just so charming.

  // Lobster cookie cutter?! WANT.

fashWK packing

Going to NYFW is not in the cards for this season, but if I waaaaas going, I would dress a little something like this...

blouse, jacket, pants, bag, shoes, bracelet

blouse, vest, skirt, Celine tote, shoes, bracelet

// But with big winter coats, too, no?
