"cool boots"

I agree with garance, and cool bag.

kate b

she's got great style and isn't afraid to take a calculate fashion risk, like her blue hombre locks.  the style caster editorial golden girl features her all suited up.  the ultra masculine styling is a fresh look for her and i'm digging the srgt. pepper vibe.

she is also killing it in this cfda outfit, caught on justjared.



weighing my options

Chicago winter is approaching, and i'm well into my winter clothing prep with several jackets, cloaks and accessories stashed away, but appropriate footwear is sitll top on that list.  a couple options i'm considering...

the Chooka bootie.  so happy to find a shortie rain boot option, and double points for not being a pair of Hunters.  but, will they be warm in -20?

these furry boots are my dream.  ash yeti knee highs, that would probably take more maintenance to keep them looking nice than my own hair.  but they would look sooo good stomping around the snow packed streets.

these sam edelman jayla booties kill.  they look stylish, and like they could stand up to a brutal winter.  but, will my calves get cold?

options.

isabel marant spring 2012

shots i really loved from the isabel marant campaign.  she makes basics look so good, with updated cuts and patterns.  the shoes are kill too.

i'm eyeing that bleach-died raglan for a diy.

subtle shout

love this shot by the sartorialist, he's got a great eye.  killer metallic shorts (skirt?), unique floral button down that kind of reminds me of an updated Hawaiian shirt, and that pop of orange.    

she's cool.

the shoes are perfect too.

cat's meow

the shots from the new style stalker campaign are striking.  anja looks insanely hot, with her bleached out hair and brows, but the clothes aren't doing it for me. 

except i would take one of each in this shot...really wanting a metallic belt like that.



burn out

planning on a bleach tie-die job to freshen up some dark interior spaces. 

if it turns out right, i may have to bring it to the closet.

sooo metal

sick of leather and lace yet (i'm not)?  i see a metallic trend on its way, on and off the runway. 

Valentino and Marant, respectively

oh, abbey

abbey lee has always been a style stand-out, but her looks this year during fashion week(s) looked so fresh and different.  equal parts model-off-duty, rocker, and goth queen she's definitely taking cues from the grunge revival.  that velvet duster is beyond.

bff

meet my new friend.

the Rachel Comey Penpal boot.  look at that georgously cut ankle.  in my mind, they are the perf pair of boots.  worth the investment, i just hope they last forever...just like our love. 

inspo

fall-to-winter.  damn, that sweater is calling my name big time.
