I can't understand it but I like the way it sounds.

Lately I've been feeling so unmotivated which is why I haven't posted in months. Thankfully Sean gave me just the encouragement I needed and there was something he said about blogging being something he did for himself as a recollection of his past, kinda like a diary. I used to think about it in the same way but the way technology changes who knows what will happen. I will more than likely look at these pictures in disgust in a year from now. On another note I've reminded myself of how fun it is to get dressed up and put together outfits.

dreams that follow me into reality.

[BeBe dress, AA raglan and socks, Manolo Blahnik shoes]

When I was given the Mary Jane Manolo Blahniks I was flabbergasted by the idea of someone giving up a shoe that Carrie Bradshaw called an "urban shoe myth." They aren't really my style and they are extremely uncomfortable which is why they were given to me, but it's the sentiment they hold that gives them their worthiness of keeping. My friend Sean and I took pictures outside of my house while we struggled for some time trying to capture the perfect picture of him mid cartwheel. I think we got a good one though, check out his blog here.

I should really start wearing makeup again, I just feel lazy to put it on especially when my day mainly consists of running errands. I should also figure out what hair products to put in my hair when I wear it curly because it looks like a frizzy mess. Nonetheless I found these Giorgio Armani sunglasses hidden in a Ray-Ban case in the garage at my parents house one day and I fell in love with them. I love the round shape and the tortoiseshell color, I just received my Ray-Ban Rx glasses in the mail which are a similar color and have an eye appointment tomorrow so I am excited about that. I am also excited that it is officially summer.

I have a small obsession with tights and I now own over 30 pairs, which doesn't sound like much but it sure looks like a lot as the mound accumulates in my separate drawer I assigned specifically to leg wear. Legs are so animalistic and beautiful to me so adorning them and emphasizing their beauty is essential.
Hey Franky how's Italy? Send a post card ok.

don't leave me waiting.

i am looking for the perfect dress. thee perfect dress and, in my seemingly ever important search to find the absolute perfect dress for no particular occasion i have come across designer calla haynes whose designs are fabulous. I am also visually intrigued by her use of texture and color.


what i love about the first dress is how it appears to fit. and since i truly believe i am too young, and broke to have my garments tailored i will still be on the pursuit for that perfect dress.

visit calla's website here for more looks.

Refinery29 LA launch party.

Thursday night I attended the Refinery29 LA launch party and kick off to the east/west tag sale. I only stayed a few hours but it was a very california fashion forward party at space 15 twenty and the band The Like performed, I love their style! To my surprise I made top 10 best looks at the party and was featured on the site, so check it out here. I wish I had more pictures but I didn't bring my camera.

The structure of shoes can become so detailed and artistic it amazes me and walking around in freakishly high shoes seems so appealing. The more shoe the better! Oh and don't forget to follow Franky and I on twitter @BreRenne and @mfranky.

everyday feels like a dream.

[levi's denim shorts, AA tank, converse, ray-ban sunglasses]
Please excuse my overly tired and creepy seductive looks, I have no make up on and naturally I inherited my mothers eye bags (that doesn't sound right). I got this raccoon tail last week and I love it, I just hope that the fur doesn't wither away as it will adorn my new leather mens satchel for a while. The reaction I get from dogs when I wear it is quite amusing.

hop in my ride.

I am sorry but this dress is amazing. simply put. I love it, the way it looks extremely comfortable and chic at the same time.

The whole collection is really fabulous, check the site for more of the Julien Macdonald collection here.

every kitten has their mitten.

I feel like I haven't posted in ages, my life just got a tab bit busier since I've been interning for Melissa Coker at Wren. I adore interning for her and even more so I love love love her pieces they are amazing. These Wren summer dresses would be quintessential for any warm weather activity and they're super cute. I can't wait for the weather to get really warm so I can walk around bare legs although I will miss my collection of leg wear, for some reason I'm always freezing if the weather isn't at least 78 degrees.

everyday should begin with sun.

I managed to snap a photo of Mikko mid yawn, I thought it was pretty cute actually. Check those fangs. I've had this dress for a long time now and I still love it, it's very sixties. Experimenting with different eras is always fun, and when I think about the sixties visions of drawn out days and bright nights of summer sweep my mind. It feels like summer already and I am looking forward to longer days and warmer nights.

back to the basics.

[Swiy mesh jeans, Docs, Swedish Hasbeens, Acne cardigan, Alexander Wang cotton shorts, pleated leather shorts, fashionology.nl knuckle ring]

Here is my spring basics wish list, I would probably adorn myself with at least one of these pieces everyday through out spring. So I am constructing my wish list around these pieces. Although I will probably have to compensate for the Alexander Wang shorts, something cheaper oh yes.

Love Alex Prager's work.

Olly olly oxen free.

Seems like everywhere I look, theres Cole Mohr. Creeping up on me like a bad habit (the bad being my current obsession with him). Maybe when I end up in NY, he will creep up on me in real life, like on the subway or something, because that would be much cooler.

Jonathan Waiter is an amazing photographer and I love the way he used his images to compile a film like world around these models, twins Aida and Ieva and model Yulia.

brown paper bag.

I find this quite amusing and I think it's genius in the sense that well at least for me it pokes fun at all the designer mimics and DIYs. I just wonder what is in that brown paper bag that hasn't managed to plunder through the bottom and I wonder what Ms. Coco would have to say about this. For the label of this post should I put fashion?

Oh la la.

I would have to say that my relationship with DJ Leigh Lezark is a love/hate one. Every time I see her I am in awe of her striking appearance. I would have to admit however, I am not always entirely sure if I love her attire or hate it, but nonetheless, the pieces always seem to work for her. She flows, and thats what I love about her. She to me, is a perfect example of its not what you wear, but how you wear it.
