In Defense of the Uniform

You know those cheap clothing stores that are pockmarking our lovely stripmall america? They have names like “Styles for Less” and “Maria’s Discounts” and their stuff falls apart if you do anything too deviant such as, I don’t know, breathe? And the fabric that they make it out of feels kinda like a cross between […]

i heart etsy. part deux.

“sometimes there is so much beauty in the world… I feel like I can’t take it… and my heart is just going to cave in…” or my credit card will max out.
Luxe Deluxe!

prices range from only $9 (for the tortoiseshell Jackie-O hoops) to $32 (Flora Bella gold cuff): (kill me now!)

double the pain

i have been keeping a secret. i am not the only person with my identical bargain-shopping gene. my keen sale-sniffing skills. my joyous love of fashion…

The hippest girl on the internet

I try. Really I do. But the truth is, I am cursed with a masters degree and the american dream. Which ironically means i don’t have time or money to shop. But I can still enjoy the vision of others. This was the impetus for putting the word “outfit” into flickr. One scroll button flick […]

new Go! International line for Target by Libertine

was anyone else disappointed by this line? i am SO done with skull motifs and preppy styling. it seems so 2006. the only things i really like are this button-down collarless cornucopia print top (which, yes, has a few skulls), the tree T-shirt, the white sweater in the last photo, some of the pants and […]

spring fever mini-spree (and a discount for You!)

after a weekend of record rainfall, its been really nice here for the last 2 days. we’re totally on a roll. that’s about the time when my spring fever reaches a high and my credit card starts to wimper. my winter wardrobe desperately needs some freshening up.
Lovely Mai from The Fusion Boutique to the rescue! […]

i heart etsy: designer highlight

being a wannabe seamstress/jewelry-designer myself, i am a complete sucker for handmade, well, anything. etsy.com, bless ‘em, are totally dedicated to artisan wares and some of these things are at just amazing prices. most artists i know are completely in love with their crafts and any money they make from it is just icing, so […]

real style can’t be bought (beautiful photos of young, hip runaways)

one of my favorite online art magazines is San Francisco’s Fecal Face. they have an article on a photo essay by an amazing polaroid photographer named Mike Brodie (aka The Polariod kid), who travelled across the US on the railway taking photos of these gorgeous young kids who are middle-class runaways and true-to-life hobos. they […]

runway robbery! (high fashion on the down-lo)

i just couldn’t get this gorgeous belted trench look from Marni SS07 out of my noggin, so i thought i’d burgle it in a more colourful version (the brighter the better, i always say) and throw in a few metallic accessories for my hipsters for the low price of $136.76. check ‘er out!

MARNI Spring/Summer 2007

check me out - almost spring

so yeah, ok, it is officially spring, but you wouldn’t know it around here. i’m still living in my boots and coat, but every once in a while a sunny (albeit cold as britney’s head) day will come around and i can at least pull out my flats and cropped jackets and throw in a […]
