♥ ah, but it's cold outside.

while in the winter season, you will typically find me

 throwing a vintage coat over a summer dress,

living out the cold months with bare legs

in denial of a temperature change,

this year feels different.

i am actually excited at the thought of layering up,

and nobody mixes leather, sweaters and lace better

than michael kors.  i am so inspired by his

  fall 2012 collection!!

♥ stealing beauty.

i would hardly consider myself an anglomaniac,

but when this book landed mysteriously on my doorstep...

(ok, maybe my upstairs neighbor was donating boxes of books and i scoured

through all of them before they were picked up!)...i felt it was a sign to share

these beautiful images from the 2006 metropolitan museum exhibition,

anglomania: tradition and transgression in british fashion

with you, my fashion-obsessed, non-judging audience.

♥ cameo appearance.

loving this sparkler from tom binns & this cameo-clad kitty from ooshki.

adding them both to my daydream christmas wish list right now.
