I never actually see many people wearing boyfriend jeans, but I think it's a neat look. I don't know if I personally would try it, but I like the way it looks on some people. I especially like how Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wears them a few pictures down. Love this one, with the blazer and black … Continue reading The Boyfriend’s Back

Sink or Swim
'Tis the season.. to start working on that tan. Well, not here in Seattle, obviously, but I imagine it is getting warmer in some places out there in the real world. Usually there is that mad online rush once a year to the VS swim page where we can see which overpriced and unoriginal flowery … Continue reading Sink or Swim
Orangina
I am absolutely, positively, irrevocably, unexplainably obsessed with orange for spring this year. Long regarded as one of the most offensive and difficult-to-pull-off colors, this striking hue has my vote this season. Surprisingly, it is flattering on all skin tones and hair colors. It makes for beautiful bold dresses, and shocking statement lips. I especially … Continue reading Orangina
“Florals, for spring? Groundbreaking…”
*warning- this simple pattern observation turns into a huge ramble about life, passions, etc Oddly enough there HAVE been a lot of florals popping up in the department store window displays. I was a little disappointed because honestly, it's not that creative. But I realized they were being shown only on pants/jeans. I found this … Continue reading “Florals, for spring? Groundbreaking…”
Free Form
Nothing says spring/summer/growth/sunshine/renewel/etc like organic silhouettes in my opinion. We've seen plenty of asymmetrical-this and surplice-that over the past few years, but really only the higher-end designers have shown free-form silhouettes and draping in their true glory. A look I began acquiring a taste for a couple years ago, I found myself drawn to cowl … Continue reading Free Form
Mint Julep
Quick post today! One of two, actually. I just wanted to share this necklace I'm oh-so-excited about that I got from Forever 21 a bit ago. I think it cost around fifteen dollars, so definitely a steal. I recommend not investing too much in trendy pieces (this being trendy in that its "mint") … Continue reading Mint Julep
Petit Fours Pretty
After checking out the photos of Louis Vuitton's Spring 2012 show complete with a carousel- yes CAROUSEL- I've been pining to do a post on pastels. Everyone's seen the mint, but I wanted to bring attention to the larger trend. I remember referring to how much I liked "Easter colors" a few years ago to … Continue reading Petit Fours Pretty
Cheetah Cheetah Bang Bang
Finally over my nippy-weather nostalgia, I chose to go full fledged spring in my garb choices today. Mint, prints, and sandals all the way. Despite my sandals leaving a rather unsightly checkerboard print on my feet, this outfit is extremely easy and comfortable. I love these "fit and flare" style cotton dresses that keep popping … Continue reading Cheetah Cheetah Bang Bang
Silver & Neon
It's a lovely sunny day in the San Juans today (besides the wind) so I decided to brave the world in a short dress. I have a habit of dressing inappropriately for the given weather conditions (I wear flip flops literally every single day) so a little chill doesn't bother me. I've been itching to … Continue reading Silver & Neon
