Needing!!


These are from Rick Owens and will be available in Paristexas during February. They are AMAZING and totally what I need for spring!!! xxRach

Alyssa Norton



I went to this jewelry party the other night and along with Subversive Jewelry and my friend's vintage collection (i'll figure out a link for that soon) there was Alyssa Norton. Her pieces are clean and unassuming and require close inspection. Although this is not a terribly representative selection of her work, you can tell she likes working with subtleties. Love the idea of wrapping otherwise standard pieces (a simple chain, rhinestones) with something softer--Nancy and I loved that pieces they looked almost looked like something a little sister would make for a sibling instead of being super big and flashy. Adding to my list. Oh, and her logo is pretty sweet too. xxlil

If i were a rich girl...

..i would treat myself to lots of great jewelry (and good food and nice clothes and lots of vacations and and and). I wear the same pieces ever day (three rings and two chains around my neck) and pop on the same Lisa Levine necklace or terquoise bracelet that my high school boyfriend gave me ages ago. It would be nice to switch it up with these lovely pieces every once and a while. Feast your eyes and learn up Rach--what will you be making me when you go down to sunny Mexico?! Something fabulous i know. xxlil

Sunday's Best. Saw these guys at the Opening Ceremony showroom and instantly fell in love. Would be happy with any and all.


Aesa. So beautiful, so simple and straight out of Brooklyn.

Dream and Awake

Dream and Awake refashions old duds into new-and-improved ones. While not a new idea, what's the best about this brand is the photographs behind it. They've got photographers like Roberto Rubalcava and Lina Scheynius taking pictures of their wares, but you would never think the two were related--just fashionable muses looking perfect and camera ready, without all the styling. Love. xxlil
