SATURDAY SHOPPING ♥ CLEO FERIN

CLEO FERIN is a new girly designer from (I think) London, but reminds me of the Brooklyn kids doing some fun things...like how New York used to be when I was a tween and teen. All I used to hear was that there were a ton of really cool little shops with local designers selling their awesome goods. And it seems like it's starting to blossom all over again with creation, all over the planet. I love these scarves from Cleo Ferin. Most of these designs are available through Tatty Devine , or you can check out Cleo's site, too . I know a lot of you might not really wear scarves...but maybe you should consider in on occasion. Especially when you really don't want to or can't spend the time to really do your hair. I don't know...there's something really cool and chic about a 40's style Do-Rag or something a little more gangstah or even the Upper East side look (that's New York, if you didn't know). These are all 100% silk, which you really want on your head if it's covering it up so your skull can breathe. And they're all 65 inches x 65 inches (they also cost about £65). Would make a super cute gift or a super cute stylee treat...for yourself. ;)♡

GIRL FRIDAY ♥ ITALIANS DO IT RIGHT

I don't know who's running the show over there at PIG MAG , but they're sure do get it. I always love the style of the girls in their fashion editorials...it's exactly Nancy Girl. Or very close. I think most shoots try to capture this kind of rawness, but it comes off as over-styled and contrived. I wish Italia wasn't so far away, or I could speak the language, because it would sure be nice to work with those kids over at PIG.♡

SHOE ME THURSDAY ♥ ARUNA SETH CERISE

My favorite staple shoe is either a black pump or a white patent leather pump, especially if they're totally messed up. I know I tend to showcase a lot of heels with bows on them. I'm not a bow freak or anything. But some of the shoes I've shown look really cute because of those bows. I just like my shoes, a lot of them, to do something...or remind me of my favorite shoes as a little girl. :) These Aruna Seth wedges with Swarovski crystals and a bow at the back are dreamy. They kind of seem odd at first. I'm not huge wedge heel unless they're vintage 70s. But then look at the nude color which is so so perfect and sexy plus the bow plus the crystals plus the insides look gorgeously vintage, too, plus...I think they're a little rockstar girl goes to the grocery store to pick up some milk. I like my run-around shoes to be a little flash so if the rest of me is played down, the shoes can pick it up. These shoes are called Cerise...which is one of my favorite names. French for cherry. Nude patent leather...it is cherry....for  £625.00. I also love the black satin heel version.♡



so hot.

WEDNESDAY BAG ♥ NEW AMY DAVIS BAGS!

OK...it does seem like I'm writing something about Amy Davis on here every couple of months. It's true. But I have said before that she is a mad creator...of very nice things. If you're not familiar with Amy, she's done a slew of things...to many to list. But some of her notables are: her collections for LeSportsac , her packaging for Hard Candy cosmetics a few years ago, her fashion illustrated column Style Fiends , her film work with hubby Jon Moritsugu (which you can see a bit of here ), her music work with band LOW ON HIGH...the list goes on. She just wrote to me about a new collection of bags...in case you never were able to pick up those limited edition LeSportsac pieces, this is your chance! The design is called Space Race and it's available on any shape and size bag you'd like. Have your pick! AND...one HUGE key note about these new bags....the Bags are made from recycled plastic bottles and air-dye ink...which is rad for Amy (and us) cuz it means "no pollution or sweatshopz." So rad.♡
make it up $36.00
officemate $188.00
wrapper $88.00
tag-a-long $42.00
