Dreaming of Summer.

For some reason I have really been jonesing for a trip south of the border, down to Mexico. I have been craving bright, beach days and tacos. Hopefully I'll be soaking up the sun and swimming in the sea soon enough. As for tacos I've been eating them every chance I get.

Here's a look I can't wait to rock. It's perfect for summer adventures.

Perfect Pairing: The Art of the Couples Costume.

It's no secret that I love dressing up and Halloween is my favorite holiday. My husband Daniel has really embraced it as well. He now insists that we do couple costumes every year. I tried to go rogue this year as a witch but alas it was to no avail. So here are some of the things Daniel & I have dressed as over the years.
Bonnie & Clyde
(recently deceased)
Apply bullet holes to chest and neck and apply some undead makeup to take it to the next level.


John & Yoko
Don't forget to make signs that say "Hair Peace" and "Bed Peace".
Indian Prince & Princess
(this was for a friends' wedding in India but the outfits translate well for Halloween)
You can wear a bindi instead of a head piece.
Rajasthan Royalty



American Revolutionary vs. British Redcoat
(this was for an Assassin's Creed event but dressing up as enemy forces can be fun and playful)
A bonus if you fight in the middle of the Halloween party. Don't forget to yell "The red coats are coming!"
American Revolutionary & British Redcoat


Al Capone & a Flapper Floozy
(this was at a Murder Mystery party a couple weeks ago- but Halloween perfection! My character called for a black eye - lipstick works great and lasts all night)
Such fun characters to be dressed up like. Don't forget the cigar!
Pirate Captain & First Mate
(this was my 26th Pirate themed birthday-I love being a pirate, what can I say?)
Don't forget to use some pirate slang. Gimme that there flask of ale!

Some other great couples costume ideas:
Antony & Cleopatra
Dead Romeo & Juliet
Sonny & Cher
Marilyn Monroe & JFK
Ron Burgundy & Veronica Corningstone
Mick Jagger & Jerry Hall (or Bianca)
Greek Gods (sheets & crowns)
John Smith & Pocahontas
Alice & The White Rabbit
Beetlejuice & Lydia
Mary Poppins and Bert
Popeye & Olive Oil
Richie & Margot Tennenbaum
Suzy & Sam (Moonrise Kingdom)

Have a spooky Monday!

I love contrasting masculine and feminine energies in my clothes. I love the rough and tumble leather jacket with a pretty, flowy dress. I have a knack for finding jewelery that looks like it could belonged to a gypsy, shaman or magician and these rings and bracelets look like they have all kinds of stories to tell. I love these boots because they are one part grunge and one part chic. They pair perfectly with a gorgeous Proenza Schouler bag.

Spring Crushes

I am all about accessories as you can see. These gorgeous dresses are the perfect canvases for going all out with the jewelry.  I am so in love with everything Dannijo! I want to be covered in their amazing global designs. As much as I love jewelry I find my sunglasses addiction to be much more serious. I am known to be caught with up to five pairs in my bag at once. I adore Karen Walker. The Super Duper Critter pair in gold are sunglasses perfection! I am so in love with them and their romantic but very modern chic ways. I love the Helter Skelter especially in Tortoise. They are a bit more masculine and tomboy and I want to wear them with a flannel and leggings and grunge it up. I have been wanting a sophisticated white pair for a while now. Being a brunette I am drawn to the contrast of wearing white sunglasses and these ones are indeed the perfect pair. I love the creaminess of the color, it gives it a hint of vintage appeal...and the shape is so dramatic and edgy. I love the heeled Kaylor boot. I have been crushing on them for months. I adore the tobacco color and the cut is amazing and so flattering. But the blood red Modernvice Jetts sing to my soul. Swoooon...I could wear these boots anywhere, anytime. The color instantly takes my all black uniform to another level, especially when paired with the Jett bag. Oh me, Oh my, a girl can dream can't she?
