I've wanted these Chloes forever.  I still want them...

orphan with his gun

siggghhhh.  It's been a weirdly hard weekend...strangely emotionally draining.  It feels so bizarre to say this, but I miss San Diego. And I'm becoming disenchanted with New York...it's not what I imagined it would be.  It's like a clean, slick movie version of itself.  I imagined living in Manhattan as some grand adventure with danger and fun around every corner.  But it's really so damn tame.  Not that I haven't found my own trouble, but I thought more trouble would find me...

oh well...

so beautiful...

hot child in the city

hot damn...Vogue Spain...sex on a spoon.

cupcakes + champagne + cyanide

 

My life just got super, insanely, out of this world busy.  Not that I'm complaining because I just the most amazing opportunity EVER but still it's just so much. But Chris and I have decided when this New York thing is all said and done, we will move to Austin and open up a little boutique to sell records, furniture, flea market finds, and clothing.  I'm going to take a sewing class this winter...it'll be nice to have a break from school then.

Talked to my brother yesterday and told him I will not be home for Christmas.  He broke my heart a little when he said "but, but...who will be there in the morning with me to open our stockings?!"  I wish I could go home...

kid gloves

 

saw these at barney's today.  they are so much more beautiful in person.  but i can't justify $325 for them...guess i'll be doing some lace work soon.

"It Smells Like Meatloaf In Here..."

Exposure

Valentino Haute Couture with hats and masks by Philip Treacy. Exposed construction and illusion netting with black lace and feathers? Yes, please!

Need, Not Want

I need those shoes. I am going to make those shoes.

Patty Cake, Patty Cake, Baker's Men

Life in a freshly painted white New York City apartment has me attempting to decorate my room to look like a cake, drinking apple juice out of teacups, and otherwise reverting back to childhood eating habits. Crustless PB&J, anyone?

Poison Them, Drown Them, Bash Them On The Head!

When Rachel was a little girl, she was Cruella Deville for Halloween... what to be this year?

Le Fashion

Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test

There's a pickle festival going on around the corner from my work, and I really want to take a nap.

Work Clothes

Shopping for work clothes can be a real drag (unless you have an amazing job that encourages imaginative dressing). I'm travelling far and wide to find some gems today...wish me luck!
