Lanvin for H&M

The hight sought after, Lanvin for H&M collection hits stores tomorrow.  It's is sure to be pure pandemonium as the doors open.  There is an H&M near by me and I expect to see sleeping bags and collapsable chairs at least around the block!!! Will you be there?

As if I wasn't overly obsessed with J.Crew already, the Spring 2011 Collection has certainly put me over the edge.  Here is a sneak peek of my favorite looks!  W

Divine, Divine, Divine

I was so inspired by a recent post on Tory Burch's blog seen here, that I wanted to share what "divine" means to me!   I'm also completely in love with the DIVINE DIVINE DIVINE sweater.  Who wouldn't want to wear something that divine...

What does it mean to you?

Countdown

The countdown has officially begun for the Lavin for H&M collection which hits stores on November 20th.  I can't wait!  My favorite pieces are the yellow ruffled asymmetrical dress and the flower print ruffled frock at the end.  Which do you like best?

Inspiration Notebook Cover by Walking In Ballet Flats

Gaining inspiration

Even though I have enough clothes to dress a small army, I still have those "I have nothing to wear" moments.  I always take a peek at LoookBook.nu when I'm lacking inspiration.  Here are a few that caught my eye...

Knitting Mad.

Fall has officially hit New York and I have finally retired all my warm weather clothes and swapped them out for my favorite Fall looks.  This season I seem to have an obsession with all the chunky knits!  Here are some of the styles I have my eyes on...

Baltrun Sweater, Tory Burch

Cashmere Fringe Jacket, Tsumori Chisato

Tipped Chalet Cardigan, J.Crew

It's Official

It's official, this fall I must get out of my ballet flat daze just to dip my toes into these beautiful boots.  I cannot explain the eyes widening, throat closing, and heart pumping feeling I got when I opened my Tory Burch email yesterday.  This collection has a fit for everyone with materials like leather, suede, chains, fringe,buckles, heels, wegdes, and flats.  If you want it, they have it.  I want it.

Halima Bootie

Lysa Bootie

Connel Flat Boot

Donovan Mid Heel Boot

Jack Over the Knee Flat Boot

I realize all the pictured boots are black, apparently I'm on the hunt.  

The New Book Club

Kate Spade, on of my favorite designers has amazed me yet again by introducing the "Book Clutch".

I am in love with this idea!  When your not using the clutch you can put in on your book shelf.  Ah-mazing. "The Great Gatsby" is my favorite one, what about you?

1 Month Later...

I can't believe it has been a month since my last post!  I have been so busy, no really, busy.  In the last month I have packed up my life in San Diego, drove 5 days cross country to Maryland, and found an apartment in New York City.  It's a great sunny studio on East 61st Street and I cannot wait until I can move in and start my new adventure in New York.  Give me another week or 2 to get settled and then it will be back to regular posting!
