DOGS LIFE

Lately I've been more concerned with living life than taking photos of it. There was a time when toting my camera around was second nature, but with Instagram and just plain forgetfulness, I haven't done much documenting these days. Hopefully now that I'll finally have more free time (yay!) I can get back into the swing of blogging. But for now, in my last few days of no work before I start my new job, I'll just hang with these little rascals.

Oh and case in point, these boots were posted on my Instagram a while back but they're new here so let's just bask in all their glory (one more time for me).

FUZZBALLS

I'm sitting here on this rainy day listening to The Pretenders and feeling feelings. Please enjoy these photos of my puppehs.

TEXTURES

I've come to realize that although my rules are strict, there are always loopholes. I normally hate PU and prefer to always buy real leather, unless it is purposely made to look even more synthetic. I'm usually not a fan of acid wash, unless it comes in an odd shape conducive to cholo short-making.

After seeing the top version of this cracked PU on Ivania, I clicked on over to ASOS to find that the jacket was better suited to my style and soon had these horrible (read: brilliant) pants in my cart as well. Funny how things go blank for a second.

STYLE FEED

Style Feed: The World's Top Fashion Blogs

I was approached a few months ago to be included in a book on fashion blogs. All it took was to hear that the forward was by none other than Susie Bubble and I was game. Plus being in the company of some of my favorite blogs, that's always a bonus and and honor...or let's just say bonor? I've been pretty busy post-fashion week with real life things, transitioning to a new job and figuring out my living situation...so imagine my surprise (read: shock) when I saw the cover this morning. Um wut.

My feelings at this moment are urging me to say something like thank you to all my readers, but that sounds too much like an acceptance speech for some grand award. Instead I will just say...corndog to you all.

The book is being released this month and you can preorder it here.

CELINE SS13

I always mean to do recaps of fashion week but I get caught up with work (read: caught up with my couch after work) and then NY becomes London and Milan becomes Paris and then it's old news and I just want Pringles and a nap. But I can always make time for my #1 gal - Phoebe Philo aka CÉLINE in your face. Let's begin shall we...

For once it wasn't her structured manly vibes, but the swishiness of the dresses that caught my eye. Give me a delicate light swishy dress and I will show you a cold hunched shoulder. But give me a heavy linen swishy dress and I will show you a sashay shante like you've never seen. And those shoes - a little bit Viv a little bit Comme.

The L and R are visually interesting to look at. Oddly enough I like the baby blue and pink combo, but the fur under feet would be an assault on my OCD. The middle pair I would wear. And you would judge me. And I wouldn't care.

The mighty Trio cashin in on the "paper bag" trend too.

And the look I could wear the least but got the loudest gasp.

What? I could wear a shirt under it.

 Those moments when you're torn between hating that something is so exclusive you can't get it easily and loving that lots of other people can't get it that easily either. But damn you until you're mine!
