I'd like to buy a vowel

Gosh you just can't lose with gifting a monogram mug. These Johnathan Adler-ish mod pattern cups are from C. Wonder, the Hollywood Regency Preppy mecca. Until Dec 31st, get 25% by using promo code FF25. Sadly, they are out of M, J and S so I have decided not to lust and obsess over these. Sigh

Livin' the dream

One of my favorite local fashion persons is Jamie Dampier. She of  Eimaj Designs who will bling the shit out of pretty much anything. Specializing in custom pageant wear, she will also kit your baby, put a cupcake on a shoe (with real sprinkles) and bustier you within an inch of your life. You need some inspiration or are a stylist looking for the most kick ass shot of your life? You are in luck! Jamie has opened a showroom/workshop at 2435 Shelby St. Look for the pink glitter doorbell

Leprechans Rejoice

Yo. Those bossypants at Pantone have dictated the 2013 color of the year is Emerald Green. What, no catchy definers likeTangerine Tango or Viagra Blue? Marketing Department is fired

Where's the taxidermy

Do you wish you could shop at the The Inventorialist, but it's like 4 am? Well, you may satisfy your quirky vintage primative industrial urge online by checking out Jayson Home in the FLEA section. This wooden tole train station from the Curiosities section is a mere $396

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
