the sun has been a total distraction from everything this summer - including caring about what i look like.
but without it, we wouldn't have perfection and bliss like this:

mine! is black a must or a lust?

shiny pleated skirt from a.a.

at some point the other night

vintage dress, top shop oxfords, grandma's gold spiral bracelet (i've worn it every day since i stole it from my mom in may)

new shades

The MET
alexander mcqueen exhibit

new boots! had to give them a whirl, even on the one of the hottest days in nyc.

buy my STUFF

time to start selling my vintage finds again. boots are expensive these days and i need a little help. sold

sold

hot cabs on 90 degree days in nyc when my shoes = no more walk

beach time! yay! i love the beach - any kind even in new york!

to avoid getting burnt to a crisp or worse WRINKLES i wore this huge hat which i LOVE and want to wear everywhere now (but i don't).

could the beach possibly be a bit more crowded this summer because of these little guys?

wanted to bring emma but she kinda hates the heat and direct sun - baby doses for her.

still haven't found a good raincoat for emma. i need sleeves and a hood that doesn't cover her head completely!

90's "blossom" dress from U.O. Renewal on sale

simone's
i drink cappuccinos from time to time

vintage mexican dress

at home

playing around with new iphone photo options

i haven't bought anything from a street fair in years. Not since i bought this great hand-dyed slip dress a million years ago that doesn't really fit anymore :( this time i bought a salsa DVD for my mom - she can't get enough.

boat ride at central park

emma loved it

snack-time

two different dresses that were probably bedsheets at one point.

blue skies, blue ocean, blue umbrellas. del ray beach. i hope i can find a mini alligator head before i leave.

spring in ny. all 3 days of it.

meow

easter
my mom is crazy

while searching for summer old lady walking shoes in the old lady shoe section i found these wedges. on the right. yummy thrifted 80's flats with tassels on the left.

can't buy me love pants from zara (the real one - from the 80's). from the pull your blanket over your eyes horrible drunk nye scene.

hotel closet confessions

in sunny california

i don't really enjoy modern

like not aesthetically. its not that i dislike it or cannot appreciate it...it just doesn't make me want to go home and move all of my stuff around and start apartment projects. BUT, i fell in love with the sls. machine gun lamps, hidden monkeys, porcelain horses, vintage granny chairs, alice in wonderland everything and this suite:
