ive got something i can laugh about

in the mood for some lighter hues and boots this season... definitely dying over the alexander wang dakota (top right)... though i would seriously be shocked if there ever came a time where i DIDN'T covet a new wang shoe... also on the hunt for some lennon-esque shades... hoping i can score a vintage pair at ye olde salvation army back in michigan when i visit this weekend!

finally i can see you crystal clear

one of these platforms is alejandro ingelmo for chris benz's woven wedge pump (suggested retail $795), while the other is jeffrey campbell's darian shoe (suggested retail $148)...

can you tell which is which? no cheating with my links!

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...
