wednesday wish list #3

It's been a while since I read a really good book. My friend recently recommended The Man Repeller's new novel and that reignited my obsession with fashion books.

Coffee table and industry tales alike, here are some from my never ending book queue.

The New Chic 

wednesday's wish list #2

More than any other color this Fall I have been obsessing over maroon. The rich color just screams Fall at me. I've been drawn to bottoms in this color, particularly jeans.

This modern neutral can go with just about any color. It is a nice change from the basic blue jeans and you can wear them to the office or out on the town!

monday's fleeting obsession: washi tape

Since every week it seems I am obsessed with something else, I thought it would be fitting to make a post every Monday that contains my fleeting obsessions. This is perfect because it never seems to fail when I wake up bright and early around 10 on Monday mornings I have some new bright idea or object of lust on my brain.

So I know this is kind of late but I've really wanted to try out washi tape as of late. I go through my crafty phases every so often and I found some inspiration that would help me express my creative side.

A lot of the washi tape DIY's are also great organizational ideas - which are right up my Virgo alley.

Here are a few of the patterns and color I can't wait to get my hands on:

Inspiration

river riding.

The boyfriend and I like to take rides down to the river which is conveniently located about five miles or so away from my house. We turn up the country music and go chillin' on a dirt road. 

Jason Aldean would be proud.

I thought this was just the coolest thing. How clever to put the succulents in old boots like that.

fashion friday #1

With Fashion Month coming to a close next Wednesday, there is no better time to recap some of the most notable looks in my opinion.

If anyone were to ask me my favorite designer I would hands down say Tom Ford. I would also throw in some knowledge about Jil Sander because - you know - every season is perfection.

Anyways, here are a few of my personal favorite looks from this season:

Balmain: So 90s. So amazing.

Diane Von Furstenberg: I'm booking my Ibiza trip as we speak.

 Maison Martin Margiela: Monochromatic magic.

Jil Sander: These are cropped pants that I could definitely get behind.

Dolce & Gabanna: Glamour taken to a whole other level.

Tibi: The perfect LBD. 

Tom Ford: And then there was this. This is the most everything that there ever was.  

The End.
