High Snobbery
































Imparting the walking advice that was bestowed upon me by my maternal elders
(1) Walk only with a forward stare. If you're looking at others, they aren't look at you
(2)Walk like you own the sidewalk and you will
Nadia Cassini exemplifies this familial wisdom.

Party Starter




























Gimmie Gimmies never get this Sass and Bide Black Frill Bodysuit.
For my summer style challenge, I plan to incorporate my denim and
black bodysuits into one outfit per week.
I'll need this one to get the party started.
Buy it here.

Model as Muse
































With Models as Muse we honor the beauties of fashion and the art
inspired by them.
Is there anything more lovely though, than a model inspired?
Grafiske Historier by Lilly Dillon (Rie Rasmussen) displays her
most intimate self works, including drawings, paintings, and photo snips.

Clothes on vacation

Chanel Cruise 2010
What to love most?

BLACK AND WHITES
Pastels cease to look lovely on some skin tones (like mine)
so in the summer months, I still find myself reaching for this neutral pallet


















FLECKS OF GOLD
A color of the stars really.
Looks lovely against a classic back and apparently, on a red head































The secret of a lady's undergarments
Oh the secret struggle of wearing pantyhose. Don't deny it ladies, we all pull
them up on high.
Karl says to flaunt your too high hose while still remaining modest






























TRANSPARENT RED
Im cataloging this look for fall
Are the tights not to die for?






























LONG BLACK AND LEAN
A heavy fan..as always.
























AND THIS
Yes, her Chanel sunnies are on a stick
Yes, she is wearing tiny, tight spandex(esque?) shorts with lace trim
and yes, that is a fantastic fluffy collar

Simple touch of a creme long sleeve under a black blazer
A blazer, as a splurge item, should be worn as many ways as possible
With a creme long john top underneath a la face hunter hottie.
