Seeing Other People

This girl is too cute to be modeling for jcrew.
Wait, it's totally throwing me off.





I don't typically feel like that when I walk into a jcrew, do you? E-commerce can be so scary when you peruse the chains.
I think it's her complete sense of individuality versus the masssss attack I get browsing their stuff. Not to say my friend didn't just pick up the most aww-worthy cutesy red blouse at jcrew for super cheap last week!

Run Up Wild On Me

I am always losing rings, but if I had a ton of these to stack up I think I may hold on tight.





Black oxidized silver rings which will wear to an antique-worn finish overtime, Deka Ray.

The Sky is the New Ground

From the Dave McKean exhibit at Merry Karnowsky LA. They floated so nonchalantly above.

Little Sparklee

I'm considering minis for an event, which means sitting around oohing and aahing over the long-time favorites is completely appropriate. The Rose bottle is also woww.

Fire It Up

These are so cool -





Vintage matches, that I am thinking about buying. I somehow think it is extra aww-ish to give the boy I love matches.

Update: I got them! They are such a treasure in person, and super tiny.

And I was broke, without a smoke...

Uhh, when can I move in?



Drew Mandel Design. Inside here.

Ohh, I want these ankle boots from dvf.



The arch looks painful but rewarding and the green is to die for.

Living In Your Letters

Every now and then a Ben Tour illustration really strikes me. Case in point below...



I just broke my second corkscrew off inside a cork. How, does this happen?
THANKS Diane for putting me con Marni all on blast on NYLON. I hate how effortlessly amazing her writing is!

She's Half

I tend to be especially drawn to photos of girls on beds, hair swinging and general plopping.







Eleanor Hardwick does all three all oh so right.

Cute Shorts

Short hair obsession numberrrr 2





From Azfn whose fall in-store events I miss...summer version where are you?

Plug In Baby

Ha ha.
Old foreign lighter, found inside a half-empty pack of cigarettes on the ground by a kid I know in East LA who will undoubtedly give it some wear and tear.



The idea of collecting lighters seems nice, although since I only use the things to light a candle once a week (and prefer the lovely smell of matches anyway) it hardly seems rational. Ooh I'd love to see some match collections.

So stay on my arm, you little charmer...

How charming is the short sleeved sweater. Margaret Howell Japan has some of my favorites.










These, please, too:

Pouring from her lips, she sighs...

There's not much I don't love about these pairs of trousers. I've been wishing for a new pair of pants, just a tad high waisted but loose and a bit cropped. Picturing a dark mauve pair in the lightest summer fabric imaginable.
o will I ever find them...
