and just as the temperatures are starting to rise, i’m revealing the liebeskind autumn/winter 2013 collection. seems weird, doesn’t it? nevermind all that — these bags are the bomb, especially the ones at the bottom working their rugged-yet-modern magic. there are lit’rally so many styles to choose from in this line-up, a girl of any personal style aesthetic is sure to find something she likes.

how to: wear sneakers without looking like you’re going to the gym

  1. keeping with the casual vibe, toss on a sweatshirt dress
  2. try a playsuit/romper/one-piece for a youthful look
  3. on hot days, an eyelet sundress is the breeziest option

yesterday morning, i arrived to aamanns-copenhagen (the restaurant’s first location in the states!) bright and early to experience a bit of denmark — skagen hosted an intimate preview for its upcoming collections. i’ve been familiar with the heritage brand for years as a go-to for watches and was pleasantly surprised to find an extensive line of styles as well as a burgeoning jewelry collection, the latter of which is in its second season. everything was slim, light, and classic in shape — all of which create a wearable product for both men and women. best of all? the affordability factor.

disclosure: i was graciously gifted with a skagen watch at the close of this event

does anyone have a spare $595 laying around? just chillin’, waiting to be spent? if so, you could totally toss it my way to be put toward one of these meredith wendell backpacks because they are — in the immortal words of fergie — t-t-t-t-t-tasty tasty.

I'm working minimum wage, have no financial support whatsoever, and have about 100 bucks for food, clothes, and hygiene stuff. But please, go on, telling people how immoral it is for me to buy the only clothes I can afford. And honestly, maybe there's something wrong with people who pay so damn much for their coffee.

i don’t disagree with you in the slightest. (the quote you are referring to was stated by suzy menkes, a fashion critic who primarily focuses on luxury goods, so her opinion is certainly skewed to a different demographic, hence my mention of “splurgehounds.”)

i’ve been feeling in an experimental mood and there are both new and preexisting beauty products on my mind. so what in the world is stopping me? i just don’t know!

  • frederic fekkai prx intensive fortifying mask this mask promises to restore smoothness and shine while protecting hair against styling and chemical damage, from which every follicle can benefit.
  • l’oreal revitalift miracle blur erases lines, wrinkles, and pores? i’m unsure of the difference between lines and wrinkles, but count me in.
  • nars ‘pro prime’ skin smoothing face prep this is one of the only products i haven’t tried, but i can’t wait because james told me that it mattifies, acts as a face and lip primer, and can be applied under or over makeup.
  • crest 3d white whitestrips intensive professional effects my sister is getting married in 1.5 months and hell no will i be a maid of honor with stained teeth. because, according to crest commercials, “if [i’m] not whitening, [i’m yellowing].”

there’s something morally wrong with having a swimsuit or a dress that costs the same as a cappuccino.

suzy menkes makes a good argument for splurgehounds.
