Currently Obsessed With...

Slow & Steady Wins the Race.

These guys create fashion satire, yet its so covetable and affordable! I reccomend checking out their 'issues' (aka collections) at Slow and Steady Wins the Race and reading this interview.

A special shoutout to its Cool, Casual, line.

I am a proud owner of:
can be worn upside down, or as a double layer top

PERFECT for limited packing space for a summer spent backpacking.

And awesome pants! (thick elastic waist...that belt not included)


My new favorite shoe (in black crushed velvet):














They're so amazing, I'm considering buying the canvas versions. They come in black, white, and very lightly indigoed.

BALENCIAGA Pre-Fall 09

Lovely vintage references.


perfectly interpreted in this month's American Vogue


I have this exact dress in pink, but actually vintage. Same silver embroidery pattern, too! It's as if Nicolas Ghesquiere took inspiration from the very dress!

















My bad on the crappy ass picture...def doesn't do justice to the dress

The Ankle-Length Shirtdress

by Trovata

TOPSHOP UNIQUE Spring 09

I LOVE this collection. It's a good thing I'm relocating to NYC just in time to pick this collection off the sales rack, if it even makes it there! Anyway, nothing original here, but I love me my new wave/post-punk style. I love Topshop jeans, and the latest incarnations are everything I need in the pants department. I've been scouring antique/vintage/thrift stores for this fit, but to no avail. Now I can get them brand spankin' new!




♥ I need to see those jeans sans fabulous trench.

haha I was just watching a video of Pylon on youtube and Vanessa Briscoe was wearing the almost exact same print blouse as featured in the collection! Not very clear photo.
