What I’m Wearing* Sea New York leopard print dress from GILT …this dress is sooooo easy to wear and sooooo comfortable I can’t help but want to throw it on just about every time I have to leave the house. So if by chance you run into me while I’m out running errands, expect to …
Frownies. Better than Botox?
When I was young I truly thought lines and wrinkles that accumulated on women’s faces were signs of a life well-lived. With every crease there represented a memory of fun & happiness, or hardship & sorrow and each were to be looked upon as beautiful, graceful, & well-earned. I thought a woman should be proud …
Antique Mall -ing in Sherman Oaks
Had the prices been right, I may have left with every one of these chairs …above and below because they were all so incredibly fabulous. The mirror-backed dining set of chairs had a matching mirrored console. It was utterly ridiculous! …in a good way. There are a few vintage clothes racks but quite a lot …
* Oh Hermès …le sigh *
I really REALLY want this Hermes iphone case. Like really want it. I think it’s because, besides their cute leather key chains and {some select} scarves, it’s the only thing that’s affordable. And really, I wouldn’t say that $315 is necessarily affordable for an iphone case, a key chain OR a scarf, but for Hermes, …
You Know Me Well But I Don’t Know You At All
Mostly for a close-up of the floral print but see the way the jeans pull on one side of my butt when I walk? Most premium jeans won’t do this. It’s a result of thin or inexpensive denim fabric with incorrect stretch proportions. * Cotton floral blazer {pretty sure I bought this in 2003} has …
Sexy One Piece Bathing Suits
. . .but I haven’t found one that is flattering on me …though I haven’t tried in ages. But usually they are too short and ride up in the crotch then simultaneously flatten my chest. Neither of which are appealing. I think they look best on women with large chests and small waists because those …
Hem Gems are JEANIUS!
Like the many amazing things I find via the internet, I’m not sure how I happened upon Hem Gems. Maybe I received an email. Maybe I searched for something and they popped up on my radar. Regardless, the point is, I found them …and they are literally JEANIUS! I got so excited about them I …

Miu Miu Studded Platform Clog Sandal
Still on the hunt for the amazingly chic clogs I blogged about here, but in need of a new brown sandal with a 70’s flare for Summer, I succumbed to the pressure of the fabulous Miu Miu clog …in sandal form, because I thought I’d get the most use out of them {and secretly still …

Oh Chloé, if you were more affordable, would I desire you so much?
Thinking of Spring handbags has me lusting for a 70’s inspired beige or nude Chloé bag …which would be worth far more than anything I might actually carry in it. This is true of my lovely Ferragamo bag I’m using at the moment and most of my other bags as well …which have been gifted …
Tandy Leather Factory
I had a thought for a leather DIY project the other day and since I recycled the rest of my leather skirt to make my DIY over-the-knee boot spats, I headed to a little local leather shop in North Hollywood called Tandy Leather Factory. They have quite a large selection of leather for such a …

I did, however, hit the blue and white porcelain jackpot at the Salvation Army …all of which will soon find a home in our …
Chanel Tattoos or Temporary Skin Art, as they call it
I couldn’t help but jump onto this fun trend and grab the Chanel temporary tattoos before they were sold out. I’m not sure I’ll ever use them, but they are adorable nonetheless. Chanel Temporary Skin Art Jak & Jil
