I want really great detail and amazing bokeh please.

And Im selling this vintage Canon TLb camera, great condition, $80. Email me for info.

My mom bought this embroidered ribbon when I went on my "ethnic" rampage and wanted everything foreign and fantastical.

I couldnt help myself from posting these images from Lula magazine.

I want to be a Lula girl.

Oatmeal

I went up to Oregon for Thanksgiving and didnt bring my computer. I thought I was being packing savvy but instead it turned out it was a really stupid idea. Note to self: ALWAYS bring computer.

While in Oregon I met up with Camille. We went to Powells books, walked about Portland, checked out the Nordstrom black friday sale, visited a boutique called Frances May (where I fell in love with this beautiful Lover blouse) and generally had a good time. Check out her post about our trip here.

This sweater is my moms. But I fell in love with it while she had it on and as soon as it was available I put it on.

Vintage oatmeal sweater, ripped tights, Jeffrey Campbell boots, vintage scarf, vintage black and white floral bag.

Ode to a Shoe

Oh Proenza Schouler shoe beauty,
Let me say you are no cutie.
You could be called a mythical creature
For you have no normal feature
But I am in love with you
Im afraid it's so true.
When will you be on my feet?
Well thats got me beat.
Perhaps one day,
When all hope has flown away,
You will be in some dark dusty corner
Placed in shadows like some bench warmer
And you will be there for me,
Like a welcoming cup of tea
And we shall sail the seven seas together
Despite any raging ocean weather
And we shall be freakin happy
No matter how sappy
Cause this is my ode
Served a la mode
To your museum-worthy design.
My gosh, you are oh so fine.
[end of ode]


Dear Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough,
You two are two true geniuses. Ive always been a big fan. Proenza Schouler is the best.

I am in love with this rayon dress. Its probably the most beautiful vintage piece I own. I cant get over it. Big thanks to my aunt who gave it to me! Best early holidays gift ever!

Outfit from lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnng time ago. (Well not really... its from last sunday.)

Wearing Calvin Klein heels, vintage belt, vintage cross, Starling skull pendant, vintage tortoise shell sunglasses and vintage 80s dress.

Sail the Ocean Blue

I remember surfing the Teen Vogue forums two years ago, and one of the hottest outfits was always the basic white tee with tights. I revisited some of my favorite Girl of The Weeks and forum postings recently and I got inspired to try the big tee with tights combo.

Here we are!

Whats not so basic is the boots, I guess. And the silk blue scarf at my ankle. But whats a girl to do?

Wearing vintage denim jacket, Sam Edelman boots, Target (Hanes) tee, Nordstrom tights, and vintage scarf.

Lace Legs

When putting together this outfit I kept thinking of this belt Rihanna wore on the cover of Teen Vogue a long time ago. If only I owned that belt!

Ive wanted these shoes for a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng time, and finally they are all mine! Thanks to Lucrecia for making it happen!

P.s. Some of you asked what I did for Halloween. I ate beautiful Greek food with my mom at a restaurant and then went home and watched Adams Family Values.

Wearing random cream dresses, Dries Van Noten cream vest, vintage black belt, vintage cuff, American Apparel lace unitard, and Sam Edelman leather boots.
