FRUGAL FRIDAY: FOR THE HOME

GOLD LEAF

Do you remember when Kourtney Kardashian wore a gold leaf headband to a fashion show last year? I liked the headband (not so much her in it).

This year, during NYFW, my friend, Karen, shot the most etherial photo backstage at the Rodarte show: a porcelain model wearing a starry hair clip

I think they say it takes seeing something two-three times before you act on it and Rodarte was the last straw- I invested in a grecian adornment of my own.

I got to hang out with Andy (Style Scrapbook) at the CurrentlyObsessed.me party in NYC earlier this month and she was wearing the most incredible jacket. In my search to track down the jacket, I ran across another great piece that she wore that weekend- her giia neon necklace.

Giia is one of my three favorite sellers on Etsy (remember the iPhone case and girly bow bikini?)

I have not placed my order yet because I am torn between the blue one and Andy’s neon version- what do you think? Both are like a piece of art- maybe I should frame one?

DINING AT HOME

My loft has a huge open space, which is great for entertaining.

Accessorizing my dining table was a daunting task but I was inspired by a beautiful, gothic hotel in interior Mexico to do a series of candles in bell jars.

HONEY, IM HOME

Over the holidays I moved into a new loft. I have been cheating on my wardrobe with art and decor. (I guess that is how a fashion blogger becomes a lifestyle blogger…)

I stalked this canvas for more than a year and now I finally have it in my bedroom so I am excited to share these images with you.

Mark Katrantzou x Topshop

In honor of London Fashion Week I wanted to tell you about something (that apparently everyone else already knows about- the collection is sold out!) Better late than never.

Mary Katrantzou, who has shown at the last five London Fashion Weeks, did a collaboration with Topshop and while the collection sold out, there will be one dress back in stock next week.

HANGING WITH JACK AND LAZ

Last Thursday, the night before New York Fashion Week started, I attended a private party for the top 25 fashion bloggers in the world (it was so crazy to have all of them in one room at one time. Jane said it was probably the biggest blogger meet up of all time- and it was).

I now have a new answer for what was is your coolest experience in fashion? Interning for Thakoon is certainly high on the list, but my new answer: I got to hang out with Jack and Laz the night before fashion week!
