bohemia

beautiful sophie with the prettiest indian print dress and leather headband. i often look to sophie for inspiration.

burgundy

lately i have been really obsessing over things i'm normally not into... crushed velvet, emerald green, and anything burgundy or remotely close! i just can't help myself lately.

i'm in love with this chiffon, ruffly dress by stolen girlfriends club (urban, can you hear me?)


and this mish mash, jewel-toned, vintage place setting by bleu bird is perfect.

taco loco

went to new hope today for cheap mexican and jewelry at jr's trading post... one of my favorite spots for navajo finds.

bursts of color

i'm really into loud bursts of color right now. i'm drawn to it. i must have rio on my mind.

italian sodas


leighanne's crushed velvet dress from forever 21.

happy thanksgiving

i loved waking up this morning to falling snow. what a beautiful morning.

mom 1972

feeling blue

seems like blue was popping up all day... i'm showing off my rings, but these knit pants are the perfect shade of blue.


chau's vintage dress with the pretty seam line stood out this morning


and carrie's blueberry pie. yum!

handmade

not by me. found these warm little socks at a russian produce market near my house for only $3. yes, i said produce market.


perfect for fall, don't ya think?

i heart LA

all the things i miss about l.a. and then some.

the most beautiful sunsets i ever did see


little tokyo and their homemade pastries

free people catalog shoot: behind the scenes

we just wrapped up our february catalog shoot in southern california. the shoot lasted three days with l.a. photographer jason lee parry.

the first day we shot in malibu.








the second and third days were shot in topanga canyon.










i miss l.a. so badly. i can't wait to show you some of my favorite things from the trip.

a little flare and some l.a.

dream collective jewelry and a leather wrap charm bracelet on my friend anna today making me want to pile it all on.


oh and just about the best news ever... my dream of going to california is finally coming true! i am leaving tomorrow morning to help style free people's february catalog. here's my suitcase all packed and ready to go.


be back in a week with photos to capture the trip and some behind the scenes! have a great week! x

in plain view

one thing i am seriously loving right this second is the silky kimono. i love giving them a tougher look by pairing the patterned drapes with jeans and a rugged boot.


and these little beauties sitting by my desk. the helmut lang belongs to my boss while the other is mine... love,love,love.

here comes 30!
