This apartment kills me. The books, the cameras, furniture, MIRRORS- the Mirrors! My new place is very vintage (it has a built in vanity and fireplace) but it's lacking the decorative detail. Taking notes from these pictures faux show.
The photos were taken with a diana, which first grabbed my attention, but the clothes itself are actually pretty cute. Daydream Lily is a cute blog, but I never knew she had exceeded herself by teaming up with Element to create a line. The shorts are my favorite. And maybe the bag. What do you think?
Oh Los Angeles. I stayed in town to work, only to be plagued with 97 degree weather and swass. Despite the heat, I got my tan on by sitting outside for twenty minutes, and was able to pull out my gem sandals. I don't know about you, but Wildfox put together a pretty spot on itemized collage of essentials for a hot day. The only thing missing? Mexican Coke.

Last week I snatched a pair of J Brand's "Eve" high-wasted jeans for a pretty little 15 bucks. If you live in LA, check out places like Crossroads and Wasteland for great barely used designer jeans, vintage t's and bags. I sold some clothes and then reimbursed myself with the jeans. I had to have them altered, but I still wear them with my chunky heels, a silk blouse and blown out hair. Using Rachel Zoe, Farrah Fawcett and Jane Birkin as inspirations, this week has been filled with gold jewelry, feathery hair and aviators. I don't have internet at my new apartment yet, so I've been watching a lot of Gossip Girl and Sex and the City (guilty pleasures, no need for judgement). For anyone who is a fan of Winehouse, Adele, or Fitzgerald, check out a pretty little lady, Melody Gardot. She has a great voice, cute style and impeccable song writing ability. As a bonus, let me provide you with some of my favorite picture of Boo the dog.
Moving to LA I discovered the part boho, part kitschy, completely comfy line, Wildfox. Donned by most celebrities (Beyonce, Ashley Tisdale, Nicole Richie), some of their sweatshirts are actually somewhat affordable. Their blog provides inspiring images, fun collages and most recently, a house tour of co-owners LA home. Flowers, Bottega Louie, dream catchers, fur and wood floors? Yeah, I get it.
There is a universal law regarding the sequence of events that follow in three. Believe it or not, recently three has been my lucky (or consistently prevalent) number. In my attempt to live positively, here are three awesome things that have happened to me in the past week.
Found a worn 70's vintage button down at Goodwill, only to realize it's worth 5 times the amount I paid for it.
Wrote two new songs, that I promise to post as soon as I record them.
'Nouf Said. Happy Tuesday! Off work today which means lollygagging around Starbucks with my linen Anthropologie romper, lazy lady status. Photo Source: Woody
