Asos dress, Calypso cardigan, Vintage Calvin Klein jacket via DRV, Vagabond shoes, Foley & Corinna backpack, 

Something taken previously, you can tell from my hair parted to the side. High (waists) & long layers, I remember going out wanting to look like I was wearing some large fraction of a closet.

Lush has cured many of my ignorances when it comes to the cosmetic industry, so I've gone ham.
Observe:
There are plastics, like microbeads, in many exfoliants.
 These plastics are unnecessary and their production is environmentally costly.
You don't need these plastics to buff yo sweat off. 
Solution: use exfoliants that only contain natural scrubby-stuff and revel in your intelligence.


 Also I'm going to urge ALL OF YOU who can to treat yourself by obtaining a pot of Life's A Beach because holy shit. It's basically a blend of sand, salt and other botanicals, which when mixed with water creates the most luscious, divine, gardenia-y, vanilla-y body scrub I've ever used in my life. It keeps my skin soft and the scent just STAYS. Like, I take showers a few hours before bed, and it makes my bedding smell delicious when I sleep. I mentioned this on Twitter and it's 1000000% true.

 I don't think I've ever given a cosmetic this high of a seal-of-approval, come to think of it.

Thank You reusable tote, Jonathan Simkhai tee & vintage overalls

Bought one of these delightful $5 totes with the intention of it just being a shopping bag, but I've been carrying it around in lieu of a purse for weeks. A little cheeky trompe l'oeil of sorts.

Cheap Monday blouse, thrifted jacket, vintage Levis shorts, Doc Martens shoes, Vivienne Westwood x Cambridge Satchel Company bag (℅)

Won't be shooting up on this roof much longer, moving to Bushwick this Sunday!
Kinda bummed, the simplicity of this backdrop has been great but oh well, just gotta get creative.

 Behold: a sneak peek at Vivienne Westwood's second collaboration with The Cambridge Satchel company! The CSC had a press preview last month for both Westwood's new collection and the upcoming Fall pieces, and of course they're all great! Westwood's collab is definitely in the right place; each piece is emblazoned with her signature zigzag pattern in different colors, and they have decided to add magnet closures to the front tabs. 

I suppose you could say I felt the need to add to the bag's charm by wearing revamped Doc Martens as tribute.

CLOTHES by American Two Shot top & Skirt (℅) , vintage Calvin Klein jacket from DRV, Vintage buttons from Junk, Vans lowtops, House of Holland sunglasses (℅) 

Children, I have returned.
These past two weeks have been hell on earth. Let's just say I had to do all the things one is not supposed to do during mercury retrograde (like find an apartment) and things went just as awry as one would expect. But decisions are over and done with, paperwork has been signed, and I'm moving to Bushwick with Arabelle. Stoked, to be honest, now that it's over. I treated myself with a haircut this week too.

But behold: American Two Shot's in-house brand: CLOTHES! Made in the USA with love and devotion by girls who fuckin' know how to dress and kill the game with ART GOD DAMMIT.

A little intro: American Two Shot is a shop and gallery in downtown NYC founded by two best friends: Olivia & Steph. The two of them opened ATS back in 2011, and they've consistently kept the vibe of the shop ridiculously cool. First off, there's a lovely coffee shop before you hit the shop portion of the store, and as you make your way to the back when you go inside, you feel as if you've stepped into a giant plastic diamond sitting on a crossword puzzle. It's colorful, frothy, smart as hell, and irresistibly approachable in that all the stuff is beautiful, but not without a sense of humor. The clothes, accessories, and trinkets they carry are meant to be worn by someone with a brain, truly, and that is what made me fall in love with the place when I first stepped inside maybe 3 or so years ago.

Everything in the store serves a purpose, whether it's to make a point to carry the desirable pieces, handmade by artists who care, or to encourage mindfulness by offering incredible vintage and producing their in-house line ethically; it's high/low, it's new and old, it's just fucking great, and I'm glad they're giving Grand street a little more imagination.
