Warming up a bit here back at home so I had to get this one in before it warms up too much to wear out. One of my favorite outfits, especially on the top half. The F21 sweater is amazing, perhaps one of my favorite pieces. A pretty traditional outfit I think, but you know, sometimes in this day and age it's almost like reaching into that attic and pulling out some antiquated old style and reinventing it. Nothing is complex about layering sweaters and throwing on a pair of jeans, but I think it's a classy style that wont ever really see an end. Therefore, it gets some talk time in the blog.
Hope everyone is doin well this week, just getting back into the swing of designing and school again after a nice little break last weekend. Got to talk art with some old friends who are slowly working their way back into my life. And just like the traditional clothes, it's nice sometimes to just have some friends youre comfortable around and you don't have to try and impress. They love you for you, and that is perhaps the best kind.
If you didn't know before, you will quickly come to find out that I am a huge fan of shoes. I love all other articles of clothing, but shoes are beautiful to me (partly because I would have no IDEA where to even begin construction of one). I have a new designer obsession as of the past few days whose photos I have been printing out one after the other. Alexander Wang. Seriously. Check this madness out.
And now for everyone's favorite time. Random photo madness. Ready. Set. Go.

been a long week full of designing, sewing, more designing and getting to spend some time with friends here and there. loving the collaboration work i'm getting to be a part of with COSMICaroline, i love that girl. looking forward to singles awareness day coming up tomorrow, maybe a little get together will be happening at an undisclosed time and location. as for tonight there's just some buffalo wings, ranch dressing, blogs, and the grammy awards. to which the red carpet was something to behold this year. i'm excited to see what the fashion police have to say about some of the more, should we say, "interesting" garment decisions.

shout out to my new favorite shoe company FLY LONDON. their designs are amazing. ive just been spending hours on their site this past week pouring through their site. also, i've discovered my new muse, one of the most beautiful women to have graced the fashion realm with her presence since the likes of Twiggy and Edie Sedgwick. Arizona Muse has stolen my heart. Her simple elegance and beautiful features are breathtaking. They just published a really great article about her in Vogue too. If you haven't checked it out pick one up.

Now for some random photos of the day. After all, what is a day with out a some pretty pictures of pretty people? And give thanks, cause I saved you hours of digging through websites looking for good shots. Congratulations photo junkies, your quick fix is as follows.
