Recently my family and I had to make the impossible decision to put my dog Zoe to sleep. She was my constant companion and confidant over the past 14 years, and I've been pretty upset about it. This blog has taken the back burner in the midst of all this, but I promise I will be back to blogging soon enough - February has just been a tough month. I want to thank you all for following and commenting, I do read all of your comments and appreciate them so, so much, and I hope to be out of this funk soon. Rest in peace, Zoe.

Currently Craving: Stripes and Wedges

Lindsey Thornburg Betty Krueger Dress; MinkPink Straight A's Stripe Jumper; Acne Pre-Fall 2010 Wedges; Jeffrey Campbell Buckle Up Wedge; Acne Extreme Stripe Dress

Technically, I'm always craving wedges, but the Acne Pre-Fall 2010 wedges have me thinking about selling an organ or two in order to afford them! The blue ones are so hot, but I can't really see myself wearing them out of the house... I know, I'm not very adventurous. But I can't wait to see how they're used in editorials! The Lindsey Thornburg dress is my other fav out of the bunch above - it comes in a maxi and mini version, both of which I love, and was created exclusively for Bona Drag. According to the description, the dress "gets better with age - the knit unravels slightly with wear, in an amazing worn-in Rodarte kind of way." Ok, I'm sold, I'll take one in both lengths, thanks.

Winter Kate

Eden Jacket; Gypsy Rose Vest; Harlow Leather Jacket; Clementine Cami; Jasmine Cardy

Singer22 has the new Winter Kate collection by Nicole Richie available for pre-order! I'm loving it all so far, but I thought this line was supposed to be "affordable"? Oh well, I'll be saving my pennies for one of the jackets - the Jasmine Cardy has my name on it. Nicole Richie can do no wrong!
