Things I Love

I love blogs because they introduce me to websites, other blogs, tumblrs, music, food, and fashion designers I would have otherwise never known about. My blog roll has doubled since I started this blog and it takes a good hour out of my day to fully read all the blogs I love to follow. So what if that means putting off homework, sleeping, and eating... okay I have obviously never gone without eating! Who do you think I am?

Two fashion websites I have discovered lately are Steven Alan and Calypso St. Barth and even though most of their pieces are out of my price range for daily life, it doesn't mean I can't look and dream about the beach.

Daisy Top
Mina Stone Metrope Dress
Geren Ford Box Pleat Gown
Bodkin Santa Ana Shorts


Calypso St. Barth
Printed Tulip Dress
Madras Ikat Top
Tiered Eyelet Dress
I could browse these websites all day long.
Speaking of, if you are in the mood to meet some of my recent blog and website crushes... (can you have a crush on a website? wrong? too late, I said it and I mean it)

Taste Spotting- a community driven visual potluck
Reasons to Breathe- latest picture of Peonies and Coffee, I think that picture was taken for me
Inside the Loop- daily doses of happy

Until next time.
P.S. I love you

The Style Icons

Today I am personally channeling Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's.


No, it is not raining and Fred (aka Paul Varjack) is not there to kiss me as I search for my cat named Cat, but I am wearing the trenchcoat purchased at J. Crew last week. This morning's weather was too perfect for the new coat and I hummed Audrey's signature song from the film, Moon River, as I walked to class today (which is not near as exciting as humming it on a New York apartment's fire escape).

Speaking on style icons, From Me To You (a newly discovered blog) features daily outfits inspired by some of the most lovely ladies of all time.





Grace, Audrey, Jackie, and Katharine...If I could send you all thank you notes for your fashion inspiration, I would. Swoon.

Until next time.

Things I Love

I am deeply sorry for the absence of posts in these last couple of days. The flu bug has taken over my life, which means I have been spending a lot of time on my couch at home. This seems like it would be the perfect time to catch up on all my blogging, except that my laptop was completely dead and useless without my charger. Luckily in this day of technology I am able to do most of my web surfing on my phone, and thanks to Fashionologie I have been able to stay updated on New York Fashion Week.

Other than Fashion Week, I am really loving this picture of Mary-Kate Olsen, who is looking so normal and healthy. Takes me back to Passport to Paris.

Without a computer and only SoapNet to keep me company these last couple of days, I find myself checking twitter approximately every 17 minutes. Luckily KatespadeNY tweets about once every 17 minutes and posts the greatest pictures.
