The Fancy Scrabble Letter Pillows

If I bought these pillows I'd get them to say                      "Work!" 

Reblog: "Poor Little Rich Girl" Barbara Hutton

Yesterday I was having a lively Instagram chat with fashion designer, Peter Jensen (- shrug-, you know) about how great Barbara Hutton's bio, "Poor Little Rich Girl" is. 


I included this trash and dish back in 2011 as part of the ever growing "It Can't All Be Dior" book club, but like Jensen, I feel it is due for a re-read, honey 

But still so, so good. This is a summer beach read for every year!

My New Fred Perry Sneakers Made it Out the Box Today!

These cobalt canvas killers I nabbed off eBay a month ago and have been waiting for the infernal rain to stop. 

Got a clear day today to slip 'em on and take off

Yup, the Beard is Gone

With temps hitting 90 today and major change on the horizon,

Whose Instagram Do You Follow?

In addition to the usual fashion fare (Barney's, Kirna Zabete, Colette, etc) and models / fashion folk (Coco Rocha, Steven Kolb, Kate Spade New York, etc) 

I also check in with Pantone for the freshest take in color, Peter Som for runway, recipes and relaxation 











And, of course, Rihanna. Because that B puts her whole life on Instagram blast. Seriously, does she not have a handler for that???







If you aren't already, you should follow ME!

Pringle of Scotland Fall 2013

No lie, ever since I saw this Pringle of Scotland Yves Klein blue 'mac'on ELLE UK's Istagram, it's haunted my thoughts since 

That asymmetrical layered storm flap at the right, the concealed placket, the raised seaming and the buckle tab cropped cuffs are all giving me mod madness and this lil' number is crying for puddle jumpin', which might occur from time to time in old UK. 


The matchy-matchy accessory trend, however, needs to END! 

You Better (NOT) Work!

It Can't All Be Dior is cutting out early for Labor Day (don't tell mom!) 

Although I'll still be firin' up the old Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr. 

See you Tuesday.  

Umm...This Be Good: April 77 Receipt Envelope

Despite running into some rough patches, French denim label April 77 is still rockin' and rollin' and causing les oh-so-hips to blow their paychecks on skinny jeans.

In return you not only get the perfect fit and the in-the-know nods, your receipt undergoes a little rad injection with a cheeky envelope / guitar pick combo

Oh the French: even their receipts are impeccably turned out.
