i want your design

finally buying teapot is always in the back of my mind (pouring boiling water from pot to mug is dangerous business let me tell ya)... and lennymud's mr. tea for one is all sorts of cheeky adorableness... too bad it's already sold out! harrumph!

will you won't you want me to make you

things i am loving lately... old school tailfins, chunky black platform boots, hand tattoos (my new one is imminent... sorry mom!), beat up shorts & belts, kate spade's snake print licorice pumps and nadine strittmatter's steeze in this soup #2 editorial...

add another bullet

been seeing a lot of side-detailing on shorts... obesity and speed's holy stud cutoffs are definitely calling my name (as is the whole ensemble... nasty gal's rock stylings always get me)... and daydream nation's side corset pair have do-it-yourself written all over them... seriously all you need is to grab any old shorts you already have in your closet, some ribbon or leather laces, scissors and away you go! talk about an adorable, easy update!

go your own way

by some stroke of luck i won a coveted ticket to the outnet's $2 second birthday sale... only 2,000 people were given the opportunity to purchase one high end designer item for $2. even though there were over 2,000 items available ensuring each customer would get something it was imperative to shop and purchase quickly lest someone else buy the object of your desire first.... i wasn't too impressed with the selection... my goal of finding a spring jacket was quickly abandoned for anything that was actually semi-me.... and so i came upon these saucy jil sander sandals in a size 10... sexy and classic yet still unique, these babies retail for $805. yes, you read that right... and my total including shipping and handling? $8... BUA HAHA!!!! best. deal. EVER!!! now i'm just worrying will they fit? will i be able to walk in them? will i even care?

is that the way it should start?

ladies! our legs are going to be able to actually BREATHE again!! my inner hippie is extremely psyched for this comeback... plus, all these saucy flares bode very well for the hot summer nights that cannot arrive soon enough!
