ice ice baby

i've never heard of SPORTMAX but this ad is pretty dope.

i love the super platinum blonde look against porcelain skin.

damn if i were a blonde, i'd feel sooooo coooool.

but i wouldn't look so hot :T

wrap it once, wrap it twice

Sasha Rhett Chrissie Snake Skin Double Wrap

double wrap-arounds have been around for a few years now. i remember the first one i saw three years ago at Nordstrom. it was an L.A.M.B. hunter green snake skin with a little lamb charm and a mini chain from the face to the buckle. i loved it but it sold out immediately... and it cost about $350. as a poor college student, $350 was not in my spending limits.

i think watches are too complicated nowadays, so when i see a very simple and nice-looking watch, i gotta have it. this one doesn't have roman numerals, but i don't think my ideal watch exists. trust me. i've searched everywhere. and i'm not going to resort to Juicy Couture's teeny bopper sets or Anne Klein's boring and matronly collection. as disappointed as i feel, it's one of those things i have to accept and compromise. i've never heard of Sasha Rhett, but i like this one. and it's only $225. *chaching!

Burberry Prorsum's 2010 Fall campaign

did i ever tell you how much i love b&w.... and even though it's bright and sunny outside, these ads make me want to cuddle up to a shearling coat. like really bad.

Burberry Prorsum Pre-Fall 2010

i know it's too early for Fall since Summer just started. but i'll forget about this if i don't post it now... i cropped some of the male models out. i'm very selective about what i put on here. just because it's Burberry Prorsum doesn't mean it's all hot. ya digg?!

ps. i'm so over the skinny pants and skinny blazers look on the home-dudes. the whole "we're in a recession so let's express the economy through our super skinny arms and legs" things is old. i wanna see some meat on the guys, because men are supposed to have muscles. i'm seeing too many skinny men out there. it's getting a little much.

High-Rise Garden

just because you live in the city doesn't mean there isn't any room for a garden...

this photo makes me happy... can't quite figure out why though..

A Very. Sick. Loft.

i instantly fell in love with the largeness of this loft, and its huuuuuuuuge set of windows. the glass pane on the upper level is a sweet touch.

Impressive Fox

though Megan Fox is a very unconvincing actress, she has a niche for high-end modelling. this isn't the first time i was impressed with her editorial. i don't know what it is.... her eyes? her lips? her envious bone structure? *shrug. PS, i'm loving this do on her. she should try it on her real hair, since it compliments her cheek bones. it's so chic.

Abbey Lee = Michelle Pfeiffer circa Scarface?

the resemblance is as uncanny as it is addictive. i loved Michelle Pfeiffer's look in "Scarface", even though she was grotesquely thin. her hair was so chic and i'm so in love with it all over again on Abbey Lee...

J.Crew's Madewell....

the long-awaited site is finally up and going! if you're like me and feel that J.Crew is becoming pricier and pricier, this is your God-sent answer! seriously... you can't overlook this wonderfully chic J.Crew's sister brand. i've already put in some orders for myself. you should too...
