♥ favorite fashion friday.


this week's fashion favorite is the sartorialist's
oft photographed muse and editor at elle italia:
eva fontanelli.

with her playful way of dressing, gorgeous face, ever–changing hairstyles,
and killer accessories, she continues to look different each
and every time she makes an appearance on the famous fashion blog.

here is a roundup of some of her beautiful looks, dating back as
early as 2006 when "that girl in milan" was named the best of season by
the sartorialist himself!

"alot of actresses are called the next audrey hepburn, but i think
this young lady is the closest thing i've ever seen." scott schuman


"i know i shoot eva all the time, but come on, when she looks like this
all the time, how can i not shoot her?" scott schuman

ps. does anyone know if she has a website or blog?
pps. and if it is translated from italian to english?

♥ crowning glory.

i have been known to sport a plastic tiara or paper crown
on a birthday occasion or two-- but never have i considered
something as magical or downright ornamental as these
headpieces from designer chase cohl of little doe.


not only are they beautiful, but they also support a beautiful cause:
50% of their profits go to designers against aids.

♥ oh snap!


if you didn't know, i like to fancy myself an amateur photographer
and have always dreamed of finding some way to share the everyday
beauty that i find with others. in college, i submitted my photos
to the pages of our literary magazines, but was never lucky enough or
digitally advanced enough to see any of my work gracing the pages.

for this reason alone, i am enamored with the premise behind the
oh snap! photography project, a blog which champions amateur as well as
professional photographers. each season, there is a photography contest
held on the site, and the best image is made into a tshirt that can be
sold on the website. here are some faves:


and here are a few images i hope make it to tshirt status:
