I have been sort of uninspired to post anything since the summer. Honestly living in NY can sort of deplete you of your drive for creativity. I know that sounds weird, but there is just so much much fashion, art, music & design here that you seem to get your "fix" of it on a daily basis. Therefore it can be pretty hard to focus on such things as your blog. Hence my absence for so many months. I vow to post at least a couple times a week from now on. Rock on!

Sweater H&M, Pants Alexander Wang, Shoes Jeffrey Campbell, Necklace Vintage

I guess H&M had the forthright to re-make the oil slick like sweater from last year. I'm ok with it! This time around its crop-ish and fitted with no slits on the sides. Last year I got 2 in different sizes and both were still too over-sized for how I was feeling. So they did a new one this year and it was only $34!
I got the pants a bit ago and have NOT worn them yet! To be honest they are just too long, as in, you need a super high heel for them not to drag. But I love that micro flare the crotch zipper. I'm sort of what you call lazy. But I've been realizing that I have plenty of comfy enough stacked heels to wear the wang flares! These Jeffrey Campbell Ann D knockoffs are actually not a bad choice!

Not awful for real suede My size (8) is already sold out online but I will def be going to TS in Soho asap to check them out and try on for comfort if they have any more left :/

Thanks for the heads-up Knighttcat!

My Mom was here visiting me in Nyc for the past 6 days, so we went to a few places I have never bothered to venture to, like the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, @ downtown Brooklyn. The gardens were beautiful and tranquil. The Japanese garden and Rose gardens were especially cool. We exhausted ourselves on our mission of finding the most fragrant rose, but they were mostly really light and subtle so we gave up. There was also an amazing vegetable section. The picture before the last one is lettuce! There was every herb imaginable and the strawberries and dill were tasty.

Bag & Sandals

2011-05-20T19:14:00.000-07:00

Got this nice big bag at a re-sale shop today in East Village, Nyc. The brand is kind of random, Sisal. But the leather is great and love that it has a long strap as well as short ones, but not too short so you can wear over a jacket or layers without it slipping off. The straps are actually more hefty than they appear in photo. It was also insanely cheap ($38) and in perf condition! The sandals are random too (Rossano Biseonti) but were brand new, with leather soles and very comfy. Although I wasn't looking for anything dark brown I thought they were interesting & also cheap! The thrills of re-sale shopping in NY are pretty awesome!

Summer Festival Style

2011-04-19T00:31:00.000-07:00

Crochet Dress by (gasp!) ]Forever21 (got it in Soho this week) actually perfectly super short and fits extremely well and was under $30, it's also cotton and not some shitty fabric combo. All you need is a little black cami under it, pare with a leather biker jacket some tough jewels and shoes (boots in my case) and you're ready to do whatever with sexy rocker boys..

moving on,

The bondage like "dress" is from Urban and is sold in intimates, WHY? its the perfect little dress..I got it at Buffalo Exchange in East Village (nyc) with tags still on for under $10 with discount.

Tee is by Torn and was def a music festival inspiration, although I didn't really feel like myself wearing it in the city . But its so nice n soft I will keep it for summer and see what happens.

I have to this day been searching for the perf lace dress, they are always cut too long when I find them and yes, I think I'm just going to chop it but usually the fabric doesn't permit such hasty undertakings. I will find one, one of these days I'm sure. Her Emma Cook Boots are another anomaly I've never had the luck of coming across.

Got this dress a little while ago, but haven't worn it out yet, trying to work on my fitness before I'll feel like wearing it. It has pretty good structure for being made of a thin stretchy Poly blend and has an opening in the back with some black mesh. Please excuse the headless shot, I wanted a close up of the print.

These pieces completely fit my mood right now, I have been dressing like a boy for some time now, shunning all things girlie, but at this moment in my life, there's a shift happening, maybe I'm starting to grow up a little, who knows, Love can be very inspiring. The 2 sickest dresses are the white one, which is Alexander Wang, no doubt, and the 3rd from the top, which is by Sheri Bodell, and looks extremely easy to wear.
