get ready for it


I eyed this beauty on style.com a few months back.
and of course forgot to write down the designer.
le sigh.
those shoulders (!!!)
i am such a sucker for some great shoulder/neck line action.
i am actually super inspired by this piece.
i have a tired old real navy thick navy wool peacoat.
I think it would be so chic and cool to add an avant garde piece of sculpted wool to the broad shoulders.
Also the secret to the chicness
is those slim tailored arms, great stiff collar (which it already has) and the draped length.
perhaps some additions will give me a unique Fall/Winter '10 coat all of my own. hmmm
I will keep you posted.

hi i am sleepy

but i have vowed to post something everyday...and i had a great day at work, so here are three purdy things...i like things in threes

i want this jacket, i didn't properly categorize this...i think it was Matthew Williamson. speaking of which, i need to check out his ENTIRE line for H&M, i want something from it, even though its pricey. so springy and colourful and funky fresh fun
and MORE lovely.....

i LOVE LOVE LOVE this dress (More threeeeees weee!) erin featherson and oh so flowy and i love the flowers, abstract but small enough for details, this will be so cute with gladiators (BUT not tacky high silver ones like i saw on this girl on 14th street this evening, TACKYYYYYYY and didn't even match her outfit, thus ruining a sweet little pink delicate sundress....but yeah) or nude pumps/heeled strappy sandals.....oh spring/summer come hither with your colour and wispy winds

and here's a cool inspiring pic i found on one of my massive google image searches, this was after i was invited to a beatnik party and needed inspiration for my outfit, i found some funky vintagey images...here's one.

i heart her outfit, the effortless audrey hepburn chicness of it all...and thats its like patio bar, with the suited handsome men behind her. i love the way she is sitting, so spring casual. inspiration for the next month for us all.....
