lookin for a new way to fly

i have been eyeballin' this super chic black jumpsuit at zara for a while and now have further confirmation i need to get on it asap... stella mccartney's latest resort 2012 collection included a seriously spot on iteration... and not only will stella's cost ten times zara's $80 version but it also doesn't offer that seriously sexy back cut out...

snoodley doodley doo

came across this missoni snood on net-a-porter and was immediately taken. but ehhh no thanks to the $240 price tag- especially considering the ridiculously high odds of me accidentally leaving it in a cab one chilly drunken night. so i thought i'd look around and see if i could find a snood (one definition of which is "the pendulous skin over the beak of a turkey" (sorta gross but thanks dictionary.com!) on the cheap, and well, let's just say the google search results were interesting. medieval hair snoods (Lady MacSnood, lol), dog snoods (um... wow), and even a computer/online/iphone/etc puzzle game... finally came across more of what i was looking for on designs on cashmere. half the price of the missoni and in cashmere as opposed to wool, i'd say we found a winner.
