You know that moment when you’re a kid, and you realize your first movie hero? Or Heroine, as it were… This was definitely my movie. I wanted to be a rollerskating muse so bad as a kid. And strangely, I haven’t grown out of it; probably because as far as goofy fun goes, this is [...]
OH MY GOD. I found this via the Lovely Dolly Dahl and I CANNOT stop watching it. It’s 100 years of East London Style in 100 seconds… If you haven’t checked out Dolly’s blog yet, get over and do so! She’s adorable and amazing! Also, THIS cracks me up so much – Hot Feet!
My 10 year reunion just happened and though I did not attend (I was working. OH! and it’s a 9 hour drive each way), I spent some time contemplating the reunion and thinking about what I’d wear if I went. Reunions are complicated things. On the one hand, you fear that you’ll need to impress [...]

At a recent party, I was talking to a francophone friend of mine who mentioned my Style and the Sartorialist article. She pointed out how inspiring French ladies are with their limited means, even on [...]
UPDATE: FERISHIA – You won! I emailed you, darling, and can’t WAIT to hear back from you! Hope to see you at Haute Summer Night! If you’re in Seattle, and at all interested in fashion, you’ve probably received a Facebook invite for Haute Summer Night: Fashion on the Boardwalk. It will be a carnival-inspired evening dedicated to [...]
So last assignment for Pretty Shiny Sparkly’s Bloggers Do It Better involved pairing neon with neutrals. Since I don’t really… own any neon colored pieces, I went for the next best thing – as bright as I could get. I mean, I guess my nails count, since the tips were hot pink (a failed LivingSocial [...]
