Leifsdottir

New prints from leifsdottir. I love the printed silk and versatile forms. Perfect for lazy, nothing-to-do, but still want to look lovely, days this summer.

Pretty much obsessed with Friends with Benefits. Discovered by way of Refinery29s 'Brooklyn's Best New Designers' post, I became instantly enamored after viewing just a few pieces from the Look Book.

I love the emphasis on draping, cut-outs and asymmetrical hems. From short to long and from day to evening, there is seriously a dress for every occasion here. I would love to own each piece, but if I had to choose, I would pick the Helena dress. I could live in that dress. Must. Find. Now.

floating in my head

my slow monday is made exponentially less productive through dreamy thoughts floating around in my head.... hazy days, cloudy beaches, paris, a cozy bed, bathtime, a hot cup of tea....

Channeling My Inner Flower Child

The weather took a turn for the worse today, but my thoughts are still filled with springtime sun and flowering blooms. The Spring 2011 line from Winter Kate is reminiscent of Ossie Clark's swinging sixties London vibe that I love so much. Lots of leg, accentuated waistlines and vibrant prints... yes please.

Sorry!

...been a little busy over here! I'll be back this weekend with continuing posts!

In the meantime, been weirded out/enjoying this warm January weather and am thinking about swimsuits already... loving the contrast of white and sun-kissed skin.

Sexy Sexy

Loving these looks from Vena Cava S/S 2011. I've been dreaming about travel and subsequently my head has been in the clouds. I envision wearing these beautiful looks while wandering the cobblestone streets of Cinque Terre or perhaps enjoying a mojito in Havana.....
