I'm taking a break from sewing buttons onto various blouses, cardigans, skirts and blazers for the sale. Who knew how much of a difference a button can make! These photos were taken a while ago. I purchased these oxfords on my trip to New York. They go with everything! They can dress down an outfit but I still consider them dressy. Does that even make sense?! Alls I know is that I absolutely love them and they were so worth the purchase!

Trixie and I have been planning and running around getting things ready for the sale and it's been a blast! Running around L.A. finding inspiration and showing me the Metro lines to take to school. Of course this was a couple of days ago when the sun gods were singing. The weather's finally cooling down and the rain gods are crying.

( A few of my favie photos throughout the year, when I did my postings in secret)

My blog is one year old today! Im eating cake in celebration and dancing to all the happening the tunes as I type this! Everyday we wake up in the morning and must put on clothes. What we choose to wear can be for many different reasons whether it's for comfort, religious affiliations, cultural backgrounds, or just to flat out express ourselves and personal point of views of our style. For me dressing up is a major way I like to voice myself and this blog has helped me do so. A very good friend of mine pushed me in the direction of starting this baby up and was a huge part of the photography. Thank you to all of you who contributed to taking photographs, who became inspiration for an idea bursting inside of my head or for just being positive encouragement and for all the awesome feedback!

The day consisted of roaming around LA first stop the LACMA for school purposes. Thanks Ron Alan for the lovely photos! It's always a pleasure to shoot with him when I get the chance. After we headed over to Robertson Blvd. to do some shopping at LF Stores by the time we arrived it was already closed! Super bummed since they were having a blowout sale 60% off the whole store! I've been drooling over their Earth Spirit Lookbook. I can't help but wonder if they had me in mind when designing these pieces??!!! The cape-like blouse, bohemian inspired accessories, over sized knits, fringe/ slouchy detailing, earth tone colors, everything I wanted and more!
