miley cyrus // marc jacobs


This is quite nice.  Marc really knows how to fashion one up. I could do without the tats, but after the teddy bear leotards and latex panties this is the photo equivalent of one of those hot towels they give you on flights and in Japanese restaurants.

mary kate olsen // yellow heels


Thank you fellow unincarcerated adult citizens of the USA for doing your civic duty and voting on Tuesday. Now we all deserve a good Mary Kate Olsen scan from the vaults for being so good.

hot child in the kitchen // cooking style








Ever since the weather cooled down I have been loving my kitchen. It's warm and cozy and it's where the food is (yum). Something about working in the kitchen is sexy, maybe it's the control or the old school domesticity of it, but as you can see from the photos above I'm not the only one who is feeling the heat.


Maison Martin Margiela // H&M




What's your jacket, Margiela? Soon enough kids, soon enough. November 15th the Maison Martin Margiela collection for H&M goes on sale. Here are some goodies from the lookbook. Those burgundy boots with the plexiglass heel are insane, so is that little leather glove handbag.

Whenever I go into H&M I always end up finding the best stuff on the mens side, and this collection follows suit with the dudes getting some of the best offerings. Shoot I would wear the whole outfit on the left and those little white booties are pretty killer too.

spring '13 // dries van noten






If you have been following the coverage of the Spring '13 shows it was apparent that there was a backlash from the print explosion that was everywhere on the runways in the past few seasons. Many designers did away with prints altogether or went with a seriously sparse black and white palette. It did feel refreshing after the digital print extravanganza, but honestly I can't see myself wanting to dress head to toe in black come Spring.

Thank God for Dries Van Noten just doing his thing as usual, combining prints in a way that makes me want to involve myself in illegal activities just so I could afford an item or two. Come on, one regretful night for those plaid heels doesn't sound too bad.

1994 // looney toons t-shirts



According to Urban Outfitters it's 1994 all over again friends! I for one couldn't be more excited because the 90's are by far the best decade known to man. Just check me out back then (that's me in the middle), rocking my grunge looney tunes t-shirt that I got at Water Country back in 94' lookin' all cool, rulin' those elementary hallways.

Obviously my shirt is way better than the one offered at Urban Outfitters (pre-fading is a little lame) but it certainly scratches that 90's itch.

UPDATE: Love how this photo was featured on Buzzfeed.com under regrettable 90's trends. No regrets, no apologies! If Buzzfeed ever wants to re-do that blog with a single person providing photographic evidence that they were involved in every single one of those trends I think I might be able to do that.

hair // badass braid


Spikes have been pretty prevalent in the fashion scene for a while (pink hair too) so it is rare to see something new in these realms, which is why this image took me so much by surprise. 

The spikes look dangerous which is always appealing yet set against that my-little-pony cotton candy plait of hair and the shockingly serene outfit it really sends the look into unnamed territory. Fashion doesn't throw me off balance too much (we've seen it all haven't we?) I wish it did more.


90's // kate moss


Browsing the shelves in the library the other day putting off work, I came across a book on beauty through the decades. This gem of a photo in the 90's section brought me back to the days when I would cover my walls with every Kate Moss/Calvin Klein ad I could get my hands on. As a youth in the 90's the Calvin Klein Jeans ad's made a HUGE impression on me. To this day I prefer the no-makeup, all american, waif look they idealized.

A young Kate Moss + an ass like that = you're welcome New York.

candy // house of holland


Every once in a while House of Holland produces some piece of candy like this t-shirt that I am completely unable to resist. Remember those tights with the garter image imposed on them? Such a sweet idea.

Combining stripes, an athletic lucky number seven and clashy color combos is almost unfair, how can a girl raised on a healthy 90's fashion diet say no?

House of holland t-shirt available at Asos $102.
