“freedoms just another word for nothing left to lose” ~janis joplin lately i have been feeling really motivated. i think it has to do with this book i am reading called the 7 habits of highly effective people. it basically tells you that you can create your own attitude and destiny. i guess i can consider myself HIGHLY effective 😉 and i do believe in…
phew, week 1 of school is done. this has been quite the eventful week between catching up in my store, mailing orders and i was filmed in a fun little secret styling event i will tell you more about in a few weeks 🙂 the dress i have on i found in atlanta, my new favorite place to find vintage dresses. we went to this…
here i am back in miami and back in school! vacations are always too short and boring days and weeks are always too long, but that is how life usually goes i guess! BUT i must say that i do find some sort of comfort in living always late, always stressed and much MUCH too busy. i like it that way i guess. this cardi…
so this is the end of our trip. our last stop was a camping & hiking night in the west of georgia. it was 55 degrees and we got to bundle up and listen to iron & wine and share stories until our eyes couldn’t stay open any longer. it was hands down the best week of my life, and it made me even more…
after being on the road it seems like all cities have an overabundance of three things. 1. beer. 2. coffee. 3. antique shops. now, i may be biased because these are the things that matt and i like most. BUT, if i am, it is good to know you can basically find the things you like in all cities in the united states, big or…
so WOW. this was one of the best days of my life. we woke up in jacksonville, snacked on some cannoli’s, subs & a pumpkin spice latte and hit the road! first stop was brunswick, a small little town with some amazing antique shops! i got a $3 coca cola bottle from the 1960’s and matt snagged a vintage bottle opener. then we were off…
a day spent in st. augustine, florida with my best friend lacey. it is the oldest city in the united states filled with small cobblestone roads, lots of coffee shops and “goodies” & filled with interesting looking people– tourists and residents both! i chose to wear this AMAZING lavender polka dotted top with a bow around the neck. i was a bit disappointed that north…
these were taken the day before we left on our road trip. i liked this outfit too much to not put it on the blog[and i wore it twice sssshh]! we are on our merry way up the east coast right now 🙂 next post i solemnly swear there will be lots of trip pictures! happy sunday! p.s. even though i am away, i still…
hello! meet ‘blue steel,’ matts new little love child! he insisted i share him/her with you! we finally decided on a name(gotta love anything referencing zoolander, come on!) also, i couldn’t wear this blouse and NOT think of the rolling stones. i know, i am disgustingly cliche but i don’t care, know why? because it’s fall, i am wearing a blouse with horses on it,…
SIGH OF RELIEF. my last week of my 1st semester of fashion school.

the beatles, beatles for sale. the best beatles cd, no apologies! i can’t and won’t ever get enough of it! this hat proves me to be a ‘trash picker.’ i noticed it outside of my neighbors door for a few weeks but didn’t want to be a ‘thief’ so i waited patiently until i saw it in the trash. then i snatched it! and made…

KEEP SMILING! P.S. heres some store discount codes for you b/c bigcartel…
nothing beats a twilight walk in the gables with my matty. just our voices echoing off of the empty streets, the sun setting, his hand in mine! especially when the walk ends in unbeatable sushi from yuga. i call this… summer meets fall. a little bit of pink paired with the lovely earthy tones of the fall that i am craving so much. pumpkin spice…
if i didn’t take summer school, this would be my ‘back to school’ outfit. i am a goody two shoes teachers pet and proud of it! happy tuesday my little co-dorkies! hope you packed a nice and healthy lunch! 🙂 p.s. after many many requests, i have finally opened the accessories section in my store! have fun shoppin’ the sunnies, brooches and hair bows! mostly…

hello miami, hello world! it is monday and this weekend has been craazy. matts still been crutching around. 🙁 i feel bad for him and want him to heal well! i’ve been taking over household duties… such as cooking. anyone who knows me knows if the food isn’t on the table, i am just going to be too lazy to eat. any cooking tips for…
so after watching the cheesy but ‘with a point’ movie midnight in paris, my dad and i got to chatting about the fantasy of living during a different era. it really has me thinkin’ why i love the 60’s so much that i emulate the era with my clothing tastes, music choices & of course the way i decorate. i decided that it isn’t necessary…
