*we've finalized the image edit.
*the layout for hanging the work is sorted.
*nicole's main man, dave, is going to hang the pictures.
*we decided on boxes..i know where to get that done! (maybe you didn't know: i hate frame shops- for some reason, they really intimidate me)
*sari is going to help me with my remedial photoshop (+if we get ambitious we'll make a zine version of this hardcover, as seen above).
*************************************************************************************

what's not to like about a sunset.

now, i've been thinking about pink manic panic a lot lately..(as i've told a few of you).
imagining something hidden, a petite surprise in my hippy locks..but i gotta say, i would like her ginger pixy for the day, to try out this look...whick kinda reminds me of the lip-do the enthusiast wrote about a few weeks ago..as seen below.

top foto by mr. facehunter, bien sur...
bottom foto, no idea, i borrowed it from kat

like a fish in a bowl..i go circles for hours.

editing is tricky yo.

i'm curious, which juxtaposition do you like?
(comment por favor)
gracias loves.

mad for moto

1.

3.1. day date: A.P.C. moto/acne corset wedges/antipodium T/samma necklace/kate moss for topshop jeans/vintage star earring

2.dossier+house party: same as above with acne high waisted mini/h+m over the knee's

3.easter lunch+babysitting: topshop oxford/vintage bag/h+m skinnies/samma necklace/ minnetonka booties

i was being pretty good about the austerity program until last week. but what with a samma sample sale+the highly anticipated topshop opening+my dream moto**..what's a gal (read:shopaholic) to do? i mean, honestly..

**which i've been thinking+dreaming of since mid january-which is the longest time i've ever slept on anything..it was destined to be mine. i mean, you might ask, how was it still there in the super regular size 38 after all this time? the silly people in LA weren't buying so they sent it here..where my gal heather was able to swing a pretty awesome discount, booyea!

p.s.can you believe the only thing i bought at my innaugural visit to topshop last week was an oxford?? i certainly surprised myself.. but i have to say i've been living in it!

the flower is still in full bloom and you know me well enough to know i will have it for always.

missing you mi amor.

i'm into the look, the language, and those frickin boots.
i'll take it all from spring thru fall.

(video genius found at gnarlitude..thanks jen for the radical tuesday tip off)

spring is springing, time for some of this:

i love these amazing blue wedge boots from mini market. though i gotta say, i am both sad+glad that they're sold out in my size (i need to save up for my upcoming topshop stop)...
+ these rings by timothy liles come in a pack of rainbo colors..i love a packaged set of anything+crayons come in handy. dontcha think they could for brunch time illustrating at egg.. hmm..

tonight...

so many places to go..but one sure thing is: john waters at marianne boesky gallery
