i never look a thing like she does

loving this version of The Killers "When You Were Young"

by the Noisettes. thanks to a facebook friend-

Amy- who shared this morning. great antidote to tuesday morning blah

oh make me over, i'm all i wanna be

new hair, new outlook. letting go of things that are bad for me and embracing the ones that evolve me and make me happy. got my hair dids by my favorite hairdresser Kaori of Hair Kuwayama

gimme gimme

it's been a while since i craved something alexander wang. the diego bucket bag is my latest feverish crush in mesh leather! hoping a fairy brings me one soon. grab one from opening ceremony, before they run out!

i'm your biggest fan i'll follow you until you love me

make of them what you will. but i'm so for this duo. sean lennon and charlotte kemp have been surfacing together the last couple of years, making photogs everywhere giddy with excitement over the couple's great chemistry with each other and the lens. check out these interesting little films they did .

modern love gets me to the church on time

wow, it's been a while. was reminded of the greatness that is orla kiely this morning through my friend jess' (one of many) blogs, ladylike. i want every single piece. don't you love it when you find something and it has your name all over it. kinda insanely in love with the SS10 collection

what a day for a daydream

she's got betty davis eyes

way before lady gaga was shocking everyone with her pantless antics, funk, rock and soul singer betty davis was the most fiercest lady around. married to miles davis while being rumored to have an affair with jimi hendrix, which then legend has it, inspired Bitches Brew

my baby is so vain she is almost a mirror

happy weekend all!

wait, they don't love you like i love you

one of the most exciting debuts of fashion week 2010 was presented tonight: alexa chung for Madewell! i want everything...sigh. i love how all the pieces are like polished versions of stuff i already own and currently obsessed with-anything starting with the letter P: pleats, polka dots, peter pan collars, private school girl cardigans

AND private school girl tights and socks.

which makes it extra easy to be inspired by the same sensibility as chung who is such a fashion darling everything she does is a do. however, i am heart broken singer.com called me today to let me know my order of the jeffrey campell clogs has been cancelled due to no stock available. i even missed out on the pre order. but alas, the heart ache was all for a good reason as i can now be on the hunt for the clogs featured in alexa's spread above. i actually had my little valentines dress on with grey tights and just changed into the sheer black ones for my pics at the post below and i also bought a men's inspired belt yesterday at uniqlo as the hubs said the dress was missing something...i get you alexa, i totally get you

first photo from the wall street journal and the rest from fashionspot.com

give me a kiss to build a dream on

the hubs took me on an early valentines date. we like to celebrate valentines either the day before or the day after. from experience, here and in sydney valentines prefix dinners almost always suck. we went to one of our fave japanese ramen haunts Ippudo. mind blowing as per usual

don't forget your lychee martinis...yumo

i highly rec the "modern" ramen

mouth watering hirabata buns

i wore forever21 flower head band, asos crochet dress and i actually wore my docs due to the snow, but i wish i could have worn my jeffrey campbell 99 zip wedge as pictured here

my furry valentine

it took me a hundred takes just to get my love heart hair pin from forever21 in the shot

hope you had a sweet valentines! xoxo
