Now hang me up to dry: July 2008

I am inspired,determined, insane, wistful,quixotic, calming, crazed and soulful. My mood often changes but I am always me. I can care to much or not at all, and I always say God bless you when I hear a sneeze. Spring is beautiful but I love the fall. Fashion is my drug and writing is my passion. Books are my escape and my bed is home. I'm a sucker for cupcakes, and go weak at the knees at the sight of a starbucks. A Venti Sugar Free Vanilla Soy Latte is my signiture drink but I do try new things. Coco Chanel is divine, while Marc Jacobs Daisy is for work but make no mistake that Cocoa Mademoiselle is me. My makeup is simple but my eyes are exotic. I FIEND Marlboro Lights but I try to stay away from temptation. I still watch Cartoons but hate reality t.v. I'm a good friend, a kind lover, but the best listener. I've got Peter Pan philosophy and will never grow up. Love me or hate me I'll still stand tall. I live for me and have love for all.

The Jean Jacket

Should I be ashamed that this little gem has made it's way back into the fashion scene, or crouch down in shame? I think I'll take the higher road and be excited. I was soo in love with the jean jacket for so long and now that it's beginning to poke it's way back into the spotlight, I'm going to start taking full advantage of it.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

How in love am I with this look that the ever-great 'Sartorialist' caught? Way too in love that I was looking for a skirt just like it, and guess what, I found one at Anthropologie!!!

Olsen Addiction

As of late, my creativity and "fashion sense" has been down to....none. It's been to hot lately to think. I read the Marykate Olsen interview in July/08 issue of Elle. I loved it. She just spontaneously signs up for trapeze school. This girl is to great for words. Lauren Hutton, who modeled MKA olsen's clotheing line, The Row has this to say about Marykate.

"I feel like M.K. is a kindred spirit. She lives an experimental life. When your young, you should be trying on lots of things, not just clothes. She understands that You're not born with taste. that's a bunch of hooey. Like everything else, taste is a process of discovery. I like that about her. She's always discovering her tastes."

I couldn't agree more.

Here's a little taste of her:
