Love me a little Jane. Love not so much how I practically ran her over with my gawking on Bowery St. 2 years ago., but it was an epic NYC sighting and worth all the inappropriate-you-shouldn't-stare-at-people-because-its-creepy-and-weird-especially-"famous"-people-walking-around-New-York. Whatever.
A little does of awesomeness for an amazing design. My special man spent the past year + encapsulated by grueling late nights and many weekends away on a rad project after bring approached by Specimen Edition to make life of a proto-type project he built while in school. The fruitful but labor intensive efforts have paid off. The Fold Chair is well and alive and living a happy and oh-so-french life in Paris. With a full page spread in Octobers issue of GQ France, I had to share the love. Now if only we could get our hands on one of these felt beauties for our little loft nest....
I have Angelica on the brain. I was reminded of my love for Angelica by my dinner conversation with friends last night. I have a special place in my heart for Angelica. Truly. Maybe it has something to do with fact that I remember my mother fondly speaking of her when I was a child. Maybe it's because I was inspired and spooked by her as the Grand High Witch in Roald Dahls (and Tim Burton's produced!) The Witches in 1990 -which is seriously one.of.the.best films.and.books.ever. Regardless, Angelica's equally glamorous and humorous and exudes beauty like no other...and just gets better with age! Hello killer bone structure, tall, and dark features..the trifecta of perfection. I die for Angelica.
The name Rachel Comey is to New York City as what Yves Saint Laurent is to Paris. Wow, that's a bold statement...ok maybe on a bit less of a grandeur level, but Rachel Comey has a cult following in New York and particularly for her shoes. As a New Yorker, its practically a right of passage to own at least one pair of Rachel Comey's. (I scored a black pair of clog booties from a couple seasons ago on super sale that I love!). Each season, I am more and more in awe of her shoes..similar shapes reinvented in so many new ways that I cant keep up with which pair are my favorite of the moment. Alas, I landed on this pair for my Shoe Du Jour. As temperatures continue to drop, I'm going crazy for soft woolies and warm looking textures. I love the simplicity and comfort element of this boot paired with the coziest looking wool in neutral colors. I would die to wear these paired with gray tights and a chunky sweater dress. Oh the endless outfit possibilities of style, comfort, and warmth. Oh and you can find these over at Gargyle, an uber curated little shop nestled on the outskirts of the LES.
