back to black

Posted on:

so, i’d been rocking (“rocking” in the loosest sense of the word) the bleach-blonde-with-dark-roots look for a long time – i didn’t really have a plan, i guess, i was just trying to get it long enough that i could pay for a cut and dye in one go-round. sam, after politely asking what, exactly, was going on with my hair, said, “you’re diy everything else, why can’t you dye your own hair?” i’ve never tried before, but i guess i figured i didn’t have …

The perfect holiday attire as you never know when you may need that more lavish look on your vacay. I added that bold rep lip for extra statement, perfect with sandals. Wearing Zachary The …

Man Repeller Crystal Ball: Barrettes

Posted on:

The greatest contribution barrettes have made to my personal narrative is two fold. On the one hand, they have single-clippedly created the illusion that I look ten years my junior. Not that I technically need it at my tender 25, but then again, one time last summer a barista at Le Pain Quotidien asked me if I was treating my daughter, who was actually my mother, to coffee. I know I’ve told you this at least twice already but it never gets old. Incidentally, I, however, do. In lieu …

Dazed Oasis

Posted on:

I think we all under estimate the power of simple details. I sound like a broken record when I say that we can never have enough plain pieces in our wardrobes, but what about those items that combine small, yet simple details? They are also a must! This top by Stylestalker is a great example, with it’s sheer black brocade print that creates a slight sense of difference. Teaming mixed florals together I combined this top with a colour burst front pleate skirt, the clash of patterns is small, yet …

Yes To Carrots Launches Yes to Coconuts

Hands down my favorite drugstore brand is Yes to Carrots especially now that drugstore brands seem to be either super cheap and chemically filled or fairly pricey (at least in NYC where more and more drugstores are carrying higher end brands). Yes to Carrots stays true to their natural philosophy and continues to deliver superfood-inspired skincare products.Read the full post Yes To Carrots Launches Yes to Coconuts which appeared first on Snob Essentials.

Today’s Everyday Fashion: The Mix

Posted on:

Inspiration: Rachel Roy Spring/Summer 2011 What I love about today’s inspiration: it’s mixing two things that are normally on opposite sides of my closet. The woven belt is for casual, bohemian days. The top and skirt are dressy, feminine pieces. Together, they make an unexpected combination that I’m loving. Below are even more boho accessories that would work with the dressy pieces in your closet.
