indian summer

I have been sick & in bed. There has been yet another snow
storm. I strongly yearn for the nights of barefeet, blue moons, 
strolls to the new park by the river to catch a nice breeze.
I cannot forget daily ice cream cones & feeling ever so carefree.
Winter has stung me bad.






I found these photos off of dripbook.com. The photographer is
a new favorite of mine by the name of Julie Williams. Her photos
are mainly new york and brooklyn based. Her scenery reminds
me of urban and rural at the same time, and all of her models
are pure creatures of beauty.

sleepy. go to bed kittens!

studio studio

I have been so incredibly busy. I finally got to let loose this weekend
and party a bit for Jade loves 22nd birthday. Her concept as far as dress
code was wear something you wouldnt wear anywhere else but Jades 
birthday party. ha! clever. I decided to go for a sort of Studio 54 meets
flapper inspired look. After looking at all the photos of the party, we
did create a small resemblance of those disco days. Heather dj'ed 
while Alejandro Jodorowsky's films were projected on the wall. 
It was quite the experience.
Then..
And this is us..


On that note, has anyone heard the new Grace Jones album?
I gotta get on that.

Best in Show

So sorry I haven't been around blogger lately. So busy
between interning and class & lifelifelife.
Growing up on a small horse farm, I will always have 
part of an equestrian in myself. Therefore when I
saw See by Chloe's latest "Best Dressed" tote bag in 
Teen Vogue, I fell inlove. The bright ribbons and 
competitive image brought back memories of my days
with Sparky, the pony, at the stables.

I would like to put a key chain like the one below around
the strap.

On the topic of bows, I found these adorable bow 
headbands at Forever21. Yeah, that place gives 
me a headache too, but sometimes I cant resist.
I usually only walk out with an accessory, but theyre
usually pretty cute ones!

Can someone tell me what the age is when you're too old to
wear bows in your hair? Please say 25, or 30, or even better, 
never!
Well I reaaalllly need to read and try to get sleepy. Tomorrow is my
first photo shoot, and its a reallllyyyy early, reaaaaalllllyyyy long 
day. Oh, and one last thing, below is my other latest purchase,
a magazine clutch I found at a thrift store on 1st ave today for $10!
I never even find any, let alone for $10. The funny part is the magazine
is an old playgirl from 1973. Haha the guy ringing me up thought
I was so silly. I told him its a collectors piece! Hah, he just didnt
get it.

drawn out

yay netflix! Currently watching The Thomas Crown Affair
starring the ever so beautiful Faye Dunaway,
,
I had a long day of interning. Stopped in at Horizons where
a fellow blogger, Alexandra, (gludafindslulu.blogspot.com/)
was taking a shoot of the store for her blogas well. Alexandra
is the absolute sweetest, with such great taste in fashion, both
vintage and contemporary. 
 I had to take a photo of Briannes shoes, they are too
cute.
Here are some photos of me wearing head to toe
black, but Sonia Rykiel. It is from her velvet collection. I think
its okay to be head to toe in black as long as its SR! Okay well, not to
my toes, those are basic Capezio jazz flats.
My first shoot for Paper is on Saturday. Other than that I
don't have much news. My mind is sort of fried so I don't even
have any of my daily zaney thoughts to express through 
my keyboard. Until later, sleep tight.

royal visions

I love my small flat, dont get me wrong. My teeny bedroom and 
alice in wonderland size closet is overstuffed and completely
loved with every space and nook used possible. BUUuuutt I 
sometimes wonder what it must feel like to live in a castle!
I'm not sure if Princess Charlotte of Monaco lives in one, but I'm
sure she has a lot more space than I could dream of. 
yes this would be lovely:

and I would prance around in Zac Posen s/s 09


but for now my fairytale is prince-less, my castle is a 3 floor
building,  and the subway is my golden chariot, sigh
