JEFFREY

Boots: Jeffrey Campbell

My friends Jeffrey, Campbell and I went out for a stroll today in the streets of the Burg... We had a grand old time drinking coffee as all good hipsters do while searching for Navajo inspired Ponchos ... I'm such a ponchonista!
(I'm sober. I think.)

Sweater: F21
Skirt: Vintage
Rings: Churoncalla/Mix
Necklaces: Pamela Love/CamdenMarket/F21

Some homemade pictures that I conjured up with a borrowed camera (because as you may know I lost my camera and have been procrastinating buying another) and a really really tall stack of books in my bedroom that I use as my photographer.
I love these new boots and I don't even care when they get scuffed or the time when I spilt coffee on them.. sort of adds to the character.

SHEER GENIUS

Photos: Cocorosa
Skirt: Vintage
Shoes: F21
Bag: Vintage

Loving this Hellz Bellz top, the sheer back makes it all the more interesting. The top is actually super long (I tucked it in the skirt) and you can wear as a super short dress except the sheer back goes all the way down, which I looove... so make sure you cover up that booty! 
Also see the awesome Hellz Bellz new Collection/LookBook Here!

Hope everyone has a fab weekend...

Shoes: Forever 21

A little while back I was invited to a tea party and the Rebecca Minkoff show rooms (photos of the event here), where we hung out with other bloggers, Rebecca and the team.
Everyone was super fun and sweet and I didn't think it could get any better until they said they were going to give us a bag each, and I have to say I'm loving mine have been wearing it ever since! Thank you!

Another new favorite item of mine has to be this Velvet Cardi I got from Suzanna at Spanish Moss. Love it, I've been eyeing it for a while in my wardrobe just waiting for the temperature to cool down so I can wear it!
And of course I'm still in love yours Vanessa ;).

On another note, if you follow me on twitter you might already know, Chantal and I spotted these Forever 21 booties the other day and I have to say at a bargain price of $32.80 how can you resist!?

Here are some leftover photos from the "poncho/caravan" day.
So excited that NYFW is around the corner cannot wait to meet everyone in 3D again... 2D is overrated!
On that note make sure you guys sign up for the IFB conference if you haven't already here, I went last year and had a blast and it was super helpful and met loads of fellow bloggers.... Hmm I keep on saying "super" I think it might be my new word, that's unfortunate!
