This is probably my third time posting the Proenza Schouler Pre-Fall 2009 collection, but I think it might just be my favorite (wearable) collection ever. Every fall and winter since first seeing it I return to it for inspiration all over again. I love the mix of metallics and knitwear, I like the dark palette of rich hues, and the layering is completely genius. Perhaps one day I'll finally

The world is turning golden here, but we've somehow avoided the usual lingering chill of fall and winter so far. A few cold days and strong winds, then the weather turns as gentle as a late summer evening. It's rather lovely to live in a place where I can boast bare legs some days in November, especially when it means I get to bring this dress out of my closet. After much debate I decided that

I'm beginning to wonder if Olivia Mew is capable of making something I won't like. Her illustrations are sweet, her scarves are amazing, and now she's creating jewelry. Her necklaces are reminiscent of pressed flower lockets that were popular in the Victorian era, but instead of small dried blooms Olivia's necklaces have locked away her illustrations for an eternity. I particularly like the humor

Living by the water means we often have blustery days; last winter was downright miserable because of the wild winds we had. Normally on these days I don't take pictures, or I try to take them inside (abandoned trains or the moat wall were nice spots) because any prolonged time outside would turn my hair into a rat's nest and the wind occasionally knocks my tripod over which is quite frightening.

Getting to the beach was a slight adventure. My old home has ceased to be a military base (due to BRAC) and as a result some of the old beaches have been fenced off. It's quite a logical decision to make since they're very isolated and it's difficult to monitor them, however as they happen to be some of my favorite spots I find this kind of annoying...so, I climb fences. Since I'm not going to

This week I've partnered with the lovely Shop Ruche to give away a $75 gift card. I always love the mix of classic pieces in their shop and they're constantly creating truly gorgeous lookbooks. Their new winter lookbook, titled "Cherished A Romantic Winter" just launched this morning and it's full of beautifully lit moments that could have been shot near my old home on the west coast (goodness I

I really adore this dress but it definitely pushes past sweet territory and into saccharine, so I don't wear it often! The insidious nature of the mushroom print is always overwhelmed by the peter pan collar and pretty pleating. I don't actually enjoy resembling a porcelain doll, but occasionally I can't resist a too-adorable dress. I had hoped my shorter hair would make me look less cutesy, but

I really enjoy jewelry with a lovely aesthetic that still marries naturalism with stream-lined and minimalist shapes. Garnett Jewelry has a nice balance of said qualities and is made from a mix of new materials and vintage finds. Plus, I just really like pyrite in almost any incarnation.by Garnett jewelry

I stumbled across this series of photographs by Martyna Galla recently and fell in love immediately. It's inspired by the film Breathless (A Bout de Souffle) and is incredibly evocative of several memorable moments from the film. Even those that haven't seen the film must appreciate the wonderful composition of each shot and sublime body language between the two models.La Petite Americaine

If I were to adopt a uniform this fall and winter it would pretty much consist of this dress. Only knowing that the variety in my closet would be a waste if I didn't use it keeps me wearing other pieces. Still on days when I barely want to leave the bed, it's nice to slip into this little piece of velvet wonder. This whole outfit is built from pieces I return to time and again; things I think I

Still out and about in your trusty denim vest or battered leather jacket? Agreed, you do look good but winter is almost here and it might be time to get yourself wrapped up in one of this seasons trend coats. Here are a few suggestions: 1) River Island        2) Topshop        3)Topshop        4) Miss Selfridge Topping this year’s hot list are definately nice long coats with fake fur lapels.

Winter is on its way and I'm still finding gorgeous fall lookbooks full of inspiration.

This hair takes some getting used to; I keep doing double takes when I walk past mirrors and see myself in the peripheral. It will probably take awhile before I'm used to seeing so much of my face and having so little to hide my blushes behind. They say a girl who cuts her hair is about to change her life, but I'm not sure that holds true for me--as far as I know it will be a quiet fall and

So, I cut my hair again--after my initial change from long hair to a bob this didn't feel drastic. Although, I am slightly afraid of looking like a boy from behind and I wore one of my most feminine dresses on the day of my haircut to balance it out. I've been trying to wear more pants this fall, but I might start wearing them more infrequently than ever now! These pictures were literally snapped

There's something endlessly marvelous about woods with their tall, reaching trees; even these tamed ones near my home delight me. They might still hide deer in their shadowy depths until dusk, but the trees are as domesticated as a lap dog--the wilderness has largely been driven out of them. Still, I delight in driving through them on quiet nights as my headlights cast an eerie glow on craggy

My favorite ring for months has been a little cursive "love" ring by Lush Jewlery. Recently, I received a few new ones from Lush. I chose the turquoise nugget, dena finger tip ring, and nailah; I'm a big fan of all of them. I like the quirky styles you find in the shop and these ones feel great on my hands.

I just got this toggle coat from Modcloth and it's really lovely. The color goes with everything, the shape nips in slightly at the waist, and perhaps best of all: this new coat is keeping me warm on cooler days so I don't have to go through boxes in the garage to find exactly where all my winter coats are packed away (I will get to them eventually).

Karen Walker always has the best campaigns for their sunglass line. One year the models were vampires and this summer the shades are styled on mops and brooms.

Nature's greatest example of alchemy is at work as green leaves turn gold and fall on a gentle bed of brown pine needles. Do leaves feel bitter that trees drop them so easily? Certainly there is an elemental change in the air; a strange melancholy in the misty mornings and early sunsets that wasn't there before. But even as the air grows chill we find warmth in cozy kitchens, oversized knits, and

I never miss an opportunity to dress up and if I can celebrate Halloween twice, I’ll kindly oblige! ;) I actually didn’t plan on going anywhere but then my boyfriends friend came over and asked me to do the half-skull make up for him that I wore last year. Then some other friends arrived and decided that they wanted some make up too, so I ended up painting everyones faces. ^^ And while I was

I adore these doe eyed girls and adorable animals by Sarah Nicole. They're so sweet and look as though they belong in a children's storybook.

This dress was one of the first pieces in my modest horse print collection. Horse prints are slowly becoming popular, so it's been rather fun to find them in all sorts of shops and allows me to be picky about fabric and silhouette. It will be marvelous one day when I have loads of horse print items--a true collection in every sense. Then perhaps I'll move on from horse printed clothing and into

I've had these shoes for years now, but I don't wear them much because they're like little straightjackets for your feet. The ideal style for your feet is bare; I don't even want to wander around my house in socks. But since that's usually rather unrealistic, we must don shoes; even so shouldn't we be able to escape these shoes in a timely manner? I like to think so. Still, I'm a sucker for these

Overall I prefer chunky, cozy scarves, but I do admire the patterns and pictures you find on some of the fancier ones. These scarves by Age of Reason are 100% silk and feature the most cheeky designs. There's clearly Hermes inspiration lurking in these, but with a twist in subject matter--classic chain designs are morphed into handcuffs and even sweet Russian nesting dolls get a makeover. My

The shirt and pants felt very Funny Face to me (in the beginning before Audrey is transformed from beatnik to model), but that whole silhouette and feel ended up getting drowned in knits--which isn't a bad way to go, if you think about it. I've really been forcing myself to wear more pants this fall. It's funny how quietly restricting dresses and skirts can be and I never notice until I put on

These head-to-toe outfits aren't exactly my cup of tea, but I love the relaxed and rugged vibe from Cardigan's fall lookbook. I admire camping much more in photographs than reality. Their sweaters are certainly covetable though and would translate nicely into every day outfits.cardigan fall 2011 lookbook

I paid a visit to the old base where I lived until this summer, so I naturally had to take a few pictures in the moat wall. The base has gotten even quieter than it was before, looking quite like a ghost town now and I was able to wander through all my old haunts completely undisturbed. It was such a fascinating and pretty place to live I'm rather sad I had to move, but I'm still close enough

The sun was warm, but you could feel fall's chill in the sand and water. Even though our days remain clear and bright, the nights and mornings grow ever colder. This will probably be the last time this year to visit the beach with bare legs and chase the surf. This lightweight and prettily embroidered dress is certainly better suited for summer days.Outfit details:Lulu*s cardiganjohnny was folk

This ring has been haunting me ever since I stood in the YSL boutique in Old Bond Street a couple month back, trying to decide which colour to pick. In the end I decided for the turqoise version because it was love on first sight (and I am far from regretting that decision). Still, that deep blue, almost purple complexion with those tiny golden spots keeps spinning in my mind. And then

I'm a sucker for dresses that look like they were made out of someone's old curtains; I don't know what it is, but there's something about brocade that I love. So, I couldn't resist yet another heavy brocade dress especially when this one looked so perfect for autumn. The temperatures are still fluctuating wildly and winter winds are rolling in (literally), so I chose to take pictures inside one

I love the darker palette of a fall wardrobe. Navy and maroon are two colors that just appeal to me so much; personified they aren't the extroverts dancing on a table at the party nor are they the pale wallflowers willing themselves into the background. They never tolerate small talk. Navy sounds like Lauren Bacall and maroon likes to slow dance by herself. They don't make an entrance, but for

One of my best afternoons from fashion week was spent (as usual) in Nina's apartment previewing her new collection for Family Affairs and munching on fall cookies. I'm quite excited about the fall pieces she just listed on her site, but the spring ones I saw are making me wish winter was already over and done with. The collection is full of vintage novelty prints and nautical-inspired pieces.

These hand embroidered pieces by Lucky Jackson are so sweet. A self-taught artist, she doesn't work in one medium alone but lets various materials inspire her. She's currently challenging her creative juices by trying to make one new piece of art every day for 365 days. The results so far: so many lovely embroidered fabric hoops featuring illustration-like stitching. I like how a few bold

I hopped down to Georgia the other day to visit my sister who lives in Atlanta. We then took a little trip down to Savannah where summer was still going strong and managed to meet up with a couple of my cousins; making it quite the family get-together since we're usually rather scattered and reunions are infrequent.

It's funny how collegiate and uniform-inspired this outfit seems when I didn't even style it that way intentionally. I dress more like a student now than I did while I actually was one. But pleated skirts and cardigans like this one have endless appeal. The convenience of a backpack is also sweet when you're climbing around on rocks down by the water.

I just got my first cold of the season, so I'm feeling rather miserable and loopy from medication. All I want to do (and all I feel capable of doing) lately is curling into a ball and staring despondently at random things. Bah, colds are terrible business, but I'm optimistic it will be over soon enough; even illnesses can't last forever. Until then you can expect glazed eyes and a dazed

These pictures were taken in the narrow hallway of the abandoned sleeping car I discovered earlier. It's a very eerie space with moody lighting and every sound you make echoes loudly. The perfect place for a Halloween party...minus all the broken glass. Also, I recently got myself a little instant camera and it's so fun to be shooting in film again, especially with such immediate results. I can't

This Carven skirt might me my favorite wardrobe item at the moment. It's just such a special piece that I'm still sometimes surprised that I own it. Just wearing it takes me back to when I first became aware of the fashion industry--cutting out editorials I admired and collaging them into new combinations within my own quiet world that seemed miles and miles from that reality. There was always

These necklaces by Wolf and Moon are graphically beautiful. They remind me of the kind of insignia you might find on a superhero's costume. The perfect dash of sparkle and color to pump up even the simplest outfit.by wolf and moon

  Hey guys! Sorry for neglecting the blog a little bit lately but life is crazy atm! First of all Uni has started last week and we are already working on our projects like crazy; first hand in the week after next week… Apart from that I’ve been working quite a lot lately, trying to do as many shifts as possible on my days off and on the weekends. I really, really love that job; you get to

I'm not usually one for headbands, but I received this headband from my sponsor Sproos and it's quite fun. It felt a bit fancy, so I opted for a minimalist outfit to compliment it. I really enjoy simple, stream-lined outfits. Fall and winter are also certain to bring back all the black (or navy) looks that have been hanging neglected in my closet. Mourning the death of summer? Perhaps...Outfit

One of the great things about fall dressing is the way the fabrics feel--the textures of things, I love cozy knits and have a mild obsession with velvet. So, it's no surprise I couldn't turn down these velvet leggings because...well, they're velvet. The name leggings is also misleading because they're as structured as most pants (except for the faux pockets), for I am not a fan of leggings as

This lookbook for Maison Scotch is a couple of seasons old, but it's still all sorts of wonderful and one of my major sources of inspiration this fall. I find the largely neutral palette especially intriguing and the layering is perfection--the shorts and tights outfits are my favorite.maison scotch fall lookbook

Take almost any summer dress, add this enveloping cardigan and you've got a fall outfit. I'm not usually one for something quite so oversized and drape-y, but this thing is seriously cozy. Fall dressing is nearly everyone's favorite; summer is too hot for anything complicated and by the time winter is in full swing you have neglected style in favor of preserving fingers and toes and when spring

I really enjoy these surreal worlds created by Sandra Dieckmann, her mix of animals and bold prints is so unique and lovely. She evokes childhood wonder towards the universe and all its mystery.

This dress would have been nice in my closet during summer since the back is so interesting, but oh well, I have it now and the neutral color is quite wonderful for layering. I'm slowly moving away from my penchant for bright colors and adding more neutrals into my wardrobe. This is the sort of shade I would have worried about washing me out in the past, but paired with my favorite sweater of

The headband is made of 100% merino Peruvian wool and should keep your head super snug this season.

I've taken pictures near this abandoned train car several times, but I only recently discovered a way inside of it. It was quite a revelation to inch down the narrow passageway hoping a pigeon wouldn't fly into my face (as they have been known to do in the past) to discover this dining area. Despite some decay, all the tables and kitchen pieces are still standing. I know the walls are faded from

Cooler weather has been quite literally blowing in; I can't seem to go down by the water without returning home windblown and damp. But I suppose that is one of the reasons it's nice to get outside--to feel the wind in your hair and get a little sand in your shoes. Rather reminds me of that quote, "you say you love the rain, but you open your umbrella every time it rains." Anyway, this tunic

While in New York Erin and I had the pleasure of dropping by Alexandra Grecco's studio for a brief visit to get a preview of her spring collection. Inspired by early Brigitte Bardot the collection had a definite ballerina feel from structured off the shoulder tops to airy pleated pieces. She also collaborated with Dan Estabrook on a handpainted hot air balloon dress. All of her pieces are already

The other evening we saw a fox run across the edge of the woods behind our house. We see deer out there almost every night (when it's dark we take a flashlight and shine it into the woods then count how many sets of eyes stare back at us!), but this was our first fox sighting. Despite what should have been a rather scarring encounter during childhood where a fox killed a couple of pet rabbits, I

As this outfit came together I was thinking of the film Never Let Me Go, or rather the film through the eyes of Kater of All This Happiness. Basically, this is my "sad clone in sweater" outfit (which will make sense if you've seen the film). There's just something about the obnoxiously oversized fit of this sweater that seemed like what you would wear when you're really feeling down; a kind of

If I were going back to school, I'd probably invest in one of these tote bags or backpacks to carry all my books around in. The proper tote bag for my outfit was definitely a necessity in my college years; if I put the time into my ensemble, then the bag for my books had to coordinate with it. These particular ones are neutral enough to go with most outfits and look sturdy enough for textbooks.by

One of the benefits of being petite is occasionally fitting into clothes from childhood...like sweatshirts your sister had when she was in elementary school. What can I say; it's a cool sweatshirt. I sadly, was never a girl scout, but I did live briefly in Nuremburg with my family (which is where my sister was a girl scout). Fall and winter always reminds me of Germany; I start craving all the
