Get it while you can

Was pleasantly surprised by the Target Neiman Marcus designer collab. Looks rather meh online but in person it is of super nice quality from an amazing array of fashion stars: Tory Burch, Derek Lam, Rag & Bone, Thom Brown and I could go on and on. This Marchesa dress is kids only but maybe you could fit your skinny self into a 16. I really love the Proenzer Schouler scribble sweatshirt, Skist-Levy fur vest and Alice & Olivia floral bike. And it's not all apparel, thank god.  The wonderful metal and glass cocktail glasses, mod lunchboxes and Judith Leiber jeweled mini mirrors would make great gifts (Or not. You deserve it) Weirdly, at the Glendale location anyway, all the items are massed near the dressing rooms, which make it nice to shop all at once but display is clearly the afterthought.

Yeah I'm totally getting that sweatshirt

Great Gatsby

Part of my Anthro score was this jeweled art deco style belt. They had quite a few other more intricate design and gems but they were are dinged and damaged, with missing stones and dented edges. Really, I was kind of embarrassed for the clearance room. Either throw that junk away or mark it down to a dollar so the crafters can take it apart jeez

Todays Finds

Detail of the Tory Burch Fox Loafer. Does not look thrilled to be wearing the barrette, does she? While I love all things fox this is a bit cutesy for me. Plus it's a flat. Need to read the tell all in Vanity Fair about T and C Burch. Apparently their divorce was not as friendly as reported and now he is mackin' on her demographic with his C Wonder line. God, get your own career, you shiny ex!

Who went to the Tuesday Morning shoes sale today? Who was mad they got up early to go to the Tuesday Morning shoes sale today? In a brief survey: aka eavesdropping, I'd say 90%. Everything was damaged, mismarked and just oddly fitting. I did score a bunch of Eiffel Tower stuff. People just LOOOOOVE the Eiffel Tower

Form follows function. I did not make that up myself

Oh dammit, loser photo editing alert. A snap of the swell b day gift my favorite sister sent me (inside joke). it is not only a super cutie hand crafted felt camera but also a receptacle for an actual same as. Get it at Modcloth but skip the squirrel tape holder, just junk

Fox Fox Fox Fox

Close up of graphic. Uh Mazing
This fox shirt from Anthropologie was as elusive as the real thing. Seen first on an employee, then only in XS ont eh folding table and then nowhere to be found the catalog, it resurfaced just in time for my annual (oh who am I kidding monthly) Anthro spree. I love it so much that despite it being short sleeved, I have worn it twice already. 1. with skinny Genetic grey jeans, shaper rust t neck and tall wedge boots then with an a-line snap front suede skirt and flat Merrell low boots and will probably bust out my red Hudson favorites with an 80's vintage jeweled gold snake belt and perhaps a hat within the next 48 hours

I'm really good at this

You won't see me buying a diaper cake or wipe warmer for a new baby gift, I've been there and know what the parents really really need is something to make them cheer them up after the nth poopy diaper. Handmade owl hat from Nurture and moustache paci from At Home in the City should do it
