take a bow

Move over two-toned Chanel tights, I've found the next best thing!


Bebaroque Dorothy tights

The fact that they can be worn with the bow to the front or the back is killing me.

the war is over

When I was a teenager, I lived by the words of my first love: "Fashion over function." ...so thoroughly, in fact, that I ended up getting heat stroke the summer of 2002. (What can I say, a giant hooded knit sweater despite a forecast of 100+° F was worth it at the time..)

Little did I know, fashion and function couuuuld *gasp* co-exist.


Prime example:


heheheheh



(On a sidenote, my besty is in dire need of this bag from a practical standpoint alone. So if you're reading this, Dani...)

Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman

douchebags, etc.

Sorry for the absence; turns out there's a bit of baggage to sort through.

HB to ME

Well..

The plan was to go shopping for two birthday gifts...
but then I made a quick little stop at the bookstore.

It's okay though. I did come out with two birthday gifts..



...for myself. =/

not creepy no matter WHAT you're thinking

Meet Deerman:


Birthday gift from my besty. =D

Considering this blog is really just a glorified wishlist..


oh HI.


(It's my birthday, I can do what I want.)

Ladylike

Yeah yeah, so I'm a sucker for a little lace in the boudoir.
On the walls though.. now that's something I'd never thought of..?

"The life of a designer is a life of fighting--fight against the ugliness, just like a doctor fights against disease. For us, visual disease is what we have around, and what we try to do is to cure it somehow, you know, with design."

conflict diamonds, if you will..

Here I thought I already owned the world's cutest S&P shakers (hello, a tiny candelabra!?) but now I'm not so sure.

See for yourself:

more treats to feast (your eyes) upon

There's not a whole lot I love more than making fancy little appies, but I'm not gonna sugar-coat it: it kinda breaks the bank. Then again, even $60 for a few bites to eat is a little more palatable than $72 for four (albeit, adorable!) skewers. =/


Won't be seeing Luki Huber's Baroque Skewers on my plate any time soon...
my never-ending wish list, however: maybe. =P

Yay or Neigh

"You like horses," I was told the other day.

It's probably true. I mean, part of me even thinks this is cute:


Maybe not $4000 cute, but cute nonetheless.
I mean, in the right setting..


See?

Exactly.

Now that that's off of my chest..
Blogging will continue as per usual shortly.
