you stone cold fox.

stone cold fox drifter blouse, sans souci crochet shorts, asos boots

this scf drifter blouse is my favorite piece in my closet right now.  i've been treating it like a trophy or something because i've had it for almost three months now and still haven't worn it until a couple days ago when i took these photos.  i'd randomly go in my closet and try it on with different bottoms each time.  i had it custom made to be a little more fitted for me and i asked for the neck line to not be so low.  it's perfect.  i've been meaning to show this outfit since i got these shorts 2 months ago.

feels like it's been a while since my last post.  i've been adjusting to a new schedule and it's hard finding time to shoot.  i did finally meet up with my cousin, bohemianrags yesterday and went to an old naval base.  it was nice to shoot there because it's totally abandoned.  kind of eerie.  it reminded me of the show, lost.

as you may know if you've been following me since the beginning that francoise hardy is one of my favorite fashion icons.  she's been a total inspiration lately from her hair to how she quirks up basics.  i've been moving back and fourth from the 60's then skipping to the 90's the last few weeks.  

      

a hold on me.

my new favorite shoes.  love how they can give plain shorts and a t shirt so much more.  wore them shopping today and each time i walked by a floor length mirror i got so excited looking at them.  yes, i am silly ;)

hope you are all enjoying your 4th of july weekend so far!

i actually got this top from the girls section at zara.  i saw it in a bright yellow the week before the sale started and told my sister i'd totally get it for myself if they had it in a different color.  it's weird how they bring out things out of no where during their sales....which i don't mind because i get a lot of their "sold out" things on sale.  that's what i love about zara sales.  and so i got this for $10!  

i will finally be giving my sam edelmans a rest!  barely any shoes have caught my eye this summer unlike last when i found clogs i wanted everywhere i looked.  i'm waiting for 2 pairs of shoes in the mail.  hopefully they work out...i'm excited to incorporate them into my not so traditional summer wardrobe i've been putting together this year. 

presently.

my ever  so talented cousin shot and editted this little snippet of myself while we were out taking pics.  it's always fun collaborating with her because this is absolutely a common interest of ours and it's so much fun just to hang out with her.  check out the rest of her youtube videos! 

i've been a lazy blogger lately and so just to give kind of an update, here are a couple instagram shots of what i've been up to - or into...

i don't know why i've been into sweaters lately, especially since summer just started.  i wish for cooler days now.  these are a few of my favorite 'summer sweaters'.  i love the open knit details.

i went to the fabric store around mother's day and got everything to make this.  i finally got around to completing it today.  it turned out better than i expected and i'm excited to try different variations next.  

knit picky.

i hate regret, especially when it comes to clothes.  after coming home from my trip to the city last week, i quickly regretted not getting other things instead.  like this top i'm wearing.  i had to go back on friday afraid that they were all sold out but luckily there was one more left in my size.  and the same with another sweater i bought at zara.  i am much happier now that i got what i really wanted.

aaand...happy father's day to all the hardworking fathers!  especially my dad and my husband.

i never realized how tan pink can make you look.  looks like i had been laying at the beach all day.  i'm really loving it.  i also found the perfect sweater, i have to be super careful for it not to snag but the shape and knit are what i had been looking for since...it was still cool enough to wear sweaters.  but when i'm wearing shorter shorts, i like to balance it out with something more covering(?)

found this cool red van in a strange alley, too bad i didn't the get creepy mannequin displayed on a porch in the shot.
