Trivial pursuit

Being the avid magazine reader that I am, my monthly allure Magazine arrived to me at baited breath. (as per usual) I scan, then read. Usually leaving the Essay and Letter from the Editor as the icing on the cake. This month I was really taken back by the Essay article. The story of one woman's birth into fashion, and into the realization that possibly, there is more to it then vanity and idealism.

To be frank, i loved it. The whole thing. And this part most of all.


"That was the beginning of the end, or, maybe perhaps more accurately, the beginning of the beginning. At that moment, I understood--not in a merely intellectual but heartfelt, visceral way--the reason why we care so passionately about what struts down the runway. I knew, with the force of a revelation, why people live and die and bankrupt themselves for fashion. I realize how fashion can become an addiction, how an article of clothing glimpsed in a store window can become the object of an almost erotic longing that can only be satisfied by the thrill of possession."

French, Tres Chic

French dressing is the new black. In all black.

Trolling Style.com and came upon Coachella pictures. Love the indy look, but i feel like everyone there shops from UO and has like different renditions of the same things on. Totally cute, but it seems a tad unoriginal for some reason. However, definitely liked these looks. The one with the head dress made me laugh, because that would have been me. A calculated mess, with probably no idea where she's going, but constantly screaming with a smile on. hahaha
Oh goodness...

Temperature on the rise




Herve Leger by Max Azria Bandage/Bondage bathing suits. Regardless of the tan lines, (that's what a great spray tan and La Roce Posay 60 are for) the swimwear is beyond gorgeous.

Hearts desire



I have no idea what it is that is so delicious about luggage trunks. I have no where to store them, and as of yet no where to take them, but vintage trunks that have thousands of stories embedded in their leather, incredible. I think that's why i love vintage. Everything is better with a little history.

The ultimate would be a vintage Goyard wardrobe trunk. Bananas! lol oh Rachel Zoe...
