++ thanksss to stephanie at DUSKIN for the sweet feature
Along with the new layout, I'm excited to announce the launch of ALL THINGS ORDINARY, the zine.

ALL THINGS ORDINARY IS A PHOTOGRAPHY ZINE PUBLISHED IN LOS ANGELES FEATURING IMAGES TAKEN BY INDIVIDUALS AROUND THE WORLD. EACH ISSUE IS BASED ON AN EVERYDAY THEME.
It'll be shipping right at the beginning of March, so you can preorder now here. Copies are $8.50 each, full color and hand numbered.
It's been such an inspiring project, and I cant express enough thanks and enthusiasm for all the photographers featured. Issue Two is already in the works - more on that to come!
We've also launched a little online store where you can find it and other zines, random vintage finds and other sweet things. Still working on getting many new items and categories up so it'll be changing with every visit.
I'll be posting more detail on both soon...

I have a feeling that a Yigal coat is in my future - season after season I am dying. Similarly, Rag & Bone showed some great jackets.

The leg-elongating properties of neutral heels sighsigh. Determined to find a replacement for my last pair by spring (when I'll be wearing more beige than martha).

Christopher Kane Fall 2009
I'd go as far as to say Christopher Kane was my favorite show of Fall so far. Might be my current worn-in sweatshirt addiction. I love this.
