a dreamer of pictures

even though i feel ombre hair is entirely played out, these new colorblocked looks from vidal sassoon salon are rockin my world... the bold tresses definitely inspired me in my recent decision to change my faded red locks to a deep brown/black... and i am definitely loving my new goth-chic look!

happiness, no more be sad

it's finally sweater weather in nyc! woot woot! i'm currently on the hunt for the perfect cabled ivory/cream crewneck... and even though there's a seemingly endless number of options out there, my new knit still alludes me... maybe it's because i want an impossible hybrid of softness and drape?? orrrrrr maybe because i'm convinced "the one" is a $700 isabel marant number?! woe to my much too small salary!!

the street's the place to go

before i moved to nyc i never owned a legit pair of grown up rain boots... and while i love my rugged tretorns these givenchy equestrian rainboots are the slickest pair i've seen yet... i mean, these babies are almost gorgeous enough to merit a move to seattle!

one thing i'd like to pull off

who doesn't love some model-off-duty style snaps? i am totally going to crib arizona muse's chic black ensemble...

when you turn your love my way

holy smokes i cannot believe the last time i posted was the end of august! actually it makes perfect sense given that september is my birthday month, fashion week and the busiest time of year at my day job... but the weather is slowly getting crisper and i am majorly longing for some new fall fashion goodies... and one of the most important investments each season is a bangin' pair of boots... i am so loving these ONE by matisse footwear presley booties (top) for every day fare and these most badass be&d textured leather ankle boots for more dressier occasions (bottom)... and since they're both under $200 they won't break my always-watched budget!

we all want to change the world

what a great fall look from columbine smille... patterned pants are definitely an it item this season and these are one of many amazing pairs available now from zara (how perfect are these for work... and omg i die over these!) and are only $89... gotta get on it!

drowning in my id

sometimes i feel for all my good intent to continuously evolve my look and be somewhat more polished and pulled together in my older age (bah!), i'll always be a gutter punk at heart... because these tatters, layers and reverse ombre hair... definitely feelin it!
