TUESDAY TAILOR ♥ STELLA MCCARTNEY LINGERIE FALL 2013 COLLECTION

I have to say that I used to be such a hater when it came to Stella McCartney. Slowly through the years I have to also admit that I have been won over by a lot of her collections, her ethics when it comes to vegan clothing and some of her famous or key pieces. Now I did a post a long time ago on some of her panties, but now I am so loving her new Fall 2013 lingerie collection and I have added some of these pieces to my wish list. I also like the model they used in the shoot. Though she's still very thin, I love how (in some shots) she actually looks like she might have a little meat on her bones. Maybe even a tiny tummy...I prefer this to the models who are just boney and bones and have gutted stomachs. :) ♥


i love this shot.







i love this set. it has tiny little bows either printed or flocked all over it.

♥♥♥ MATERIAL GIRL COTTON CANDY GLITTER AUGUST 2012 SHOOT ♥♥♥

Oh how I want to be these girls in this magazine...to wake up every day and plop whatever prettiness is draped on the chair and look a little tired and disheveled and still put together. I think the reason why I love what Material Girl does is because it's accessible. It's not about uppity fashion or uppity makeup or overdoing it to look like someone else. It's about mismatched ends and split ends and a place where nothing matters but what you feel like doing and being. The below editorial is older, but I still love it nonetheless. I love the clothes and how they all look like bits and pieces you'd find at a thrift shop and the makeup looks like it's from last night. I like her puffy eyes and the way they have glittered it all up. Sigh. :) Happy Monday, all. xxx  (PS It was shot by Elliot & Erick Jimenez!)♥

♥ SUNDAY MATINEE ♥ PANTHER SECRETS LAWNS (DVD) PREVIEW ♥



When I lived in Portland (Oregon), I was able to finally meet E*Rock...who is a cool dude I knew of because he did all the music and sounds for Mumbleboy's videos back in the day when I wrote about him for Dazed and Tokion (raise your hand if you love this run-on long-ass sentence!). E*Rock is has a lot of things going on, one of them being a record label called Audio Dregs. He's also a visual artist, too, and I'll be featuring something he did called Dreem Street on here soon (fashion/art stuff/ish). This is a new video that just went up. I guess it's from the DVD they're putting out for Panther's 2007 album "Secret Lawns", which I love. Great f-king record. BTW, in case you didn't know, E*Rock is also the big brother to one Evan Mast of Ratatat (I also wrote about them for a couple of magazines back in the day...nice kids...).

Enjoy!♥

♥♥♥ SATURDAY SHOPPING ♥♥♥ A STRAWBERRY THEMED THING ♥♥♥

I just noticed the other day that some of my new favorite things are all sort of strawberry colored or flavored or whatever. And I thought it would make for a cute post. 

So below are some favorites and some new things and one was a gift...there's a phone case/bumper from Marc by Marc Jacobs (a gift this week from someone...I like it. Dunno if I would have bought it for myself. But I did need a new case and it is cute...and it is Marc, which I love love). Then some lip product and a nail polish that I am so loving. Such a perfect shade...


First up...the ROSEBUD STRAWBERRY LIP BALM AND MOISTURIZER. I have had this product for a long time. I didn't use it at all for so long. When I ran out of other lip balms that I use before I go to bed and leave on my bedside table, I pulled this out. It is very moisturizing. My lips feel good in the morning. I love the tin. But the product doesn't smell very nice and it kind of feels too artificial. I think I mostly love it for the tin. It also doesn't really have any color. It's okay. Next is a brand new product I picked up like yesterday to take with me when I run. It's KISS MY FACE STRAWBERRY LIP BALM WITH SPF 15. This smells like a strawberry heaven. Not too strong. Not artificial. It smells like really good strawberry bubblegum actually. It's so moisturizing. And it doesn't feel like Vaseline which I do not like (which the Rosebud is basically). I love all Kiss My Face products, though. It also protects my lips when I running in the sun. Next is a nail polish by SINFUL...it's actually called SINFUL SHINE and it's from their new jelly nail polish collection. The color is DEVIOUS. Because it's a jelly nail polish, it looks like cherry or strawberry candy. I think I wrote about this before. I really love this color and it stays on for a long time. I get a few little tiny chips at the very tip because I'm typing so much so often. But, other than that, it's the perfect strawberry summer sunny shade ever. LOVE. I love that bit of translucency in the finish. Last in this bunch is the KORRES WILD ROSE LIP BUTTER. I really love this color and the smell and the feel of it. I just don't like how messy the pot gets. But I love Korres and this lip product is gorgeous. It's more like a deep dark raspberry..but I thought I'd include it anyway.


Another mention I had to include even though it's been featured recently is the RMK BLUSH IN NATURAL ROSE which is coming out this month (I think it might already be out...see the post on the new RMK FALL COLLECTION here). This is TRUE strawberry and looks amazing on my cheeks. It is by far my favorite blush right now. I never thought I could actually love a powder blush so incredibly much! The brush that comes with it is pretty amazing, too...



Finally, I got a little surprise gift this week...and it's also very strawberry bunny...it's a Marc by Marc Jacobs IPhone case. I like it. It's fun. :) It's silly. but yeah, I guess it is a bit my personality, even though I tend to think of my personality as more black and navy. :) 




So I hope you're having a great Saturday....I don't know what's in for me today. But I've been feeling really happy and romantic lately. I hope you guys are feeling that way, too, because it can't be beat. :) Happy Saturday! xxx
