dapper

Just got my first gilt groupe purchase! A super cute pair of Boutique9 oxfords. I love them!!! Oxfords are officially my crazy new obsession. I'm into that Lauren Hutton, Diane Keaton, Katherine Hepburn, bitch-i-can-do-anything look. But more importantly, they can pull off literally any type of men-inspired piece with a feminine attitude. That's my girl.

Trying to nab these Marais oxfords next. I actually love all their shoes, but their oxfords are by far their most classic pieces. Their whole concept really just speaks to my American pride (*Parisians are snickering right now*). I'm sure my closet can use a little patriotism, haha. Check out their shoes and site out here.

Off to join the working class society now.... grumble grumble.

minty fresh

I'd like to conduct a room in mint green christian louboutins.

clutter me beautiful

I can be quite the ratpacker. I can't seem to throw away the too-small t-shirts with autographs of all my sixth grade classmates or random hello kitty items I made my mom buy every time we passed the Sanrio store at the mall. All those sentimental feelings are tucked away some place somewhere in my house. They're waiting to be thoughtfully placed in some awesome future apartment I'll have, which will be decorated in that "beautiful mess" type of style. I love organized clutter. It's like the happy compromise between the neat freak in me and the actual chaos of life. Here are some inspirations for my future apartment.... uhhh... .. I mean mansion/penthouse.

my magazine collection WILL look like hers.

I want my closet to be as big as Lisa Mayock's of Vena Cava.

I want my belts and jewelery to be organized in a nook just like hers except around an antique birdcage instead.

And I want my shelves color coded. I want I want I want.

Here's a tidbit of my shoes. I'll try to post outfit pics soon, just need to find the time!
