This is NOT in lieu of my “favorite things” post I owe to Sophie (I promise, it’s coming!! I actually made a video a week ago, but after watching it again, I didn’t like it, so I have to re-think my post), it’s just...

I think No.6 has been making clothing for a few seasons now, but it’s really never been readily available online. But today in Steven Alan’s new arrivals, there are several amazing silk pieces by No.6. My MOST FAVORITE DRESS ever is...

I’ve had these in the queue to post for ages (or at least since they surfaced at Opening Ceremony), but they’re not clogs, so they kept getting pushed down the list
This pair of collaborative Repetto ballet flats by Rodarte are lovely,...

Opening Ceremony has just marked down sale items at additional 20% – bringing prices down to extremely reasonable levels (compared to normally out-of-reach). You don’t need a code to take advantage of the sale, but I’d hurry, because...

This is NOT in lieu of my “favorite things” post I owe to Sophie (I promise, it’s coming!! I actually made a video a week ago, but after watching it again, I didn’t like it, so I have to re-think my post), it’s just a fun peek into thing’s I’ve “hearted”...
No.6: not just for clogs anymore
I think No.6 has been making clothing for a few seasons now, but it’s really never been readily available online. But today in Steven Alan’s new arrivals, there are several amazing silk pieces by No.6. My MOST FAVORITE DRESS ever is this one:
and how fabulous would it look with these No.6...
Rodarte X Repetto
I’ve had these in the queue to post for ages (or at least since they surfaced at Opening Ceremony), but they’re not clogs, so they kept getting pushed down the list
This pair of collaborative Repetto ballet flats by Rodarte are lovely, but not worth the price tag IMO. I do think Repetto...

Alexander Wang sale items at Shopbop
Shopbop did a round of new markdowns overnight, and while there are lots of other great designers on sale, of COURSE I was drawn to the Alexander Wang pieces. Some of the bags are marked 30% off and there are several great T by Alexander Wang tops/dresses on sale; I always take the opportunity to buy...

Found: The Perfect Ankle Booties…Maybe.
Okay, so yesterday after I posted ISO the perfect ankle booties, I went ahead and ordered both pairs of Seychelles booties from Endless and they arrived about an hour ago (how cool is that?). I intended to only keep one pair, so I need your help choosing which you think works better on me – or...
Review: Fullum & Holt Handbag
You may have noticed in my most recent outfits of the day, I traded in my Alexander Wang Donna bag for a Fullum & Holt oversized spiral bag in cream I received from Emmy’s Boutique:
After carrying this bag for about a month pretty much non-stop (the days I didn’t carry it, I...
Review: Fall 09 James Perse Dresses (Help Needed)
**update: I sent both dresses back. I didn’t feel like either one was worth the money for me, the dress on the right I considered keeping, but I wasn’t sure I would get my money’s worth out of it. The dress on the left I liked, but I hated that it was dry clean…so, back...

Outfit: I can’t take off my Madewell Jacket
I’m really glad I got the Madewell Army Jacket…it’s perfect for layering over a thin cashmere sweater, or even over a t-shirt. The dress is from Target.
Outfit: Copycat
I saw this picture while browsing Net-a-Porter the other day, and just for kicks, thought I’d try to copy it – I actually own tht T by Alexander Wang shirt and the James Perse sweater, and similar shoes, bags & pants, so it wouldn’t be that difficult.
I’m also wearing...
