m.i.a.
and i do mean ACTION. i do think this new (awesome) job will allow me more time for blogging, but it’s been a big adjustment – waking up at 5 am, and working until 2 or 3 pm – as yet, i haven’t figured out how to get enough sleep the night before to bypass a nap when i get home; usually a 3 to four hour nap, which sucks me of any energy and still sends me off to bed early. a typical day for me now looks like this: wake up, stumble into some …

Important Detail: Belgian Shoes
When I was in LA last week me and Preston had and epic Thai dinner with Lesley and Lena and I had a FREAK OUT over Lena’s shoes!!!!I thought they were 60s vintage, I was totally wrong. They are Belgian Shoes and they have a store on the Upper East Side and I have to get a pair RIGHT AWAY. It’s the kind of thing where they come in 900 thousand colors and you can make your own combos, which sometimes overwhelms me, but how cool are they? Loved Lena’s …

ant audrey
greetings from a dining room table in icy cold brooklyn! it’s finally feeling like winter here – the temperature has literally dropped 30 degrees in the past few days, and it’s almost a relief to bundle up in a winter coat and gloves (although this haircut is leaving much to be desired warmth-wise.) i’ve had a pretty serious lack of outfit posts lately (and posts in general, but i digress) – it’s not on accident; my hair hasn’t been cut or colored since i first chopped it and blonded it back. . . …

Bold Stroke
WOOF!!  That’s normally footie (or soccer to the Americans) speak to accompany a stonkingly good goal.  In this case, it was my reaction to Anthony Vaccarello‘s debut campaign for his A/W 14-5 collection, shot by Inez and Vinoodh and starring Anja Rubik and a separate entity known as Anja Rubik’s never ending legs.  It’s an ace combination all round as Vaccarello chose to kick off his campaign cycle with a bold stroke, in homage to the key inspiration of the A/W 14-5 – the vibrantly energetic…

Lou & Piccadilly
Lou is a premium French lingerie brand established in France in 1946, over 60 years ago. It was started by a couple André Faller and Lucienne and the story is that they met one day on the Orient Express and André immediately fell under her charms. She was a gymnast with a passion for dressmaking and she’d been making her own lingerie for years and together they started the brand. The name Lou was André’s pet name for Lucienne. Always a sucker for a love story, I was drawn automatically to this …
