It’s almost midnight and I am still at work but I just wanted to say one thing…
New trend alert: SPACE!!!
Love these space nails.

Ladies! I’m doing some reserach for a work project and I need your help.
Have you seen any websites or blogs lately that are doing something new or fresh with fashion or beauty? Here are some examples and why they’re good:
lookbook.nu
Makes street fashion photography immediately more accessible and totally global.
Art of the Trench
Old fashion icon meets new. Burberry enlisted the Sartorialist to capture trench coats in action.
The Considered Ensemble
A fashion blog with no pictures. Bold and beautiful.
Anything at all you can think of will be most helpful. Thanks!

I wish my life was as still and quiet as my blog right now. I am workingsohard and the size of my to-do list is making me nauseous. I can’t even write proper sentences. I’ll be back on the weekend.

The portraiture of Dutch photographer Hellen van Meene is unbelievable. It takes such talent to depict people so gracefully and sympathetically.

PS. Fellow bloggers, what do you do when you find out that someone has posted something you’ve written without any credit? A simple cut and paste and not even a link… I guess it’s flattering but it’s also just plain rude!

Today is officially the last day of winter and I am longing for summer. I can’t stop thinking about lying in the grass in these shorts, with warm dappled sunshine and a good book.

Is it sad that my favourite thing to do on a Saturday night is go swimming? This photo by Wayne Levin makes me want to swim whole oceans.

There are two reasons why my heart skipped a beat when I saw this collection of photos on The Electric:
1) Freckles!
2) That hotel! I have been thinking a lot lately about my trip to LA and my darling friend there. It makes me sad that October last year was the last time I felt the warmth of the sun.

Is it ridiculous that I am sitting in bed with my hair standing on end, fiendishly hungry for eggs on toast, with last night’s clothes strewn across the floor, wishing my life resembled vintage Dior editorials? Oh for some poise (class! style! money!).

Apparently the space between your thumb and forefinger when you make the ok sign is also the width of a branch that can hold your weight.

Grand Central Station, NYC, 1941. Apparently the light doesn’t stream in like this anymore because the buildings around the station are too tall.

Just as you are beginning to doubt your feelings for it, London has this magnificent way of presenting itself: with valour and pride, so subteley that you won’t realise you’re falling in love again until you’re gone, breathless, drowning. Happy Valentine’s day.

APC is one of those labels that I feel actually knows who I am. To the core. This is how I want to look. Even how I want to stand. So nonchalantly, like I’m smart and like I know better because I have made mistakes. Like I’m a little bit vulnerable sometimes but that’s ok. It’s ok. Like everything is actually ok.
I know you know what I’m talking about.

I think I’ve posted about Keith Davis Young before but I’m too lazy to check. Never the less, he is a genius and his work is incredible.

When I was in America last year I realised that a little part of me must be a tiny bit Navajo because of how inexplicably drawn I was to moccasins. I didn’t end up buying any (REGRET!), but every so often my heart twinges at the thought of going all tribal on your asses.
I have had these scarves bookmarked since Kate first posted them a little while ago and every time I see them my heart aches for deserts and horses and plaited hair, feathers, beads, tassles and all of those other stereotypical things that are probably more Disney than actually Native American…

These feel like such in between times, don’t you think? The weather here is muted and grey, close and crowding so nothing gets out, no one gets out.

I am a little bit in love with the photography of Lauren Bamford. She lives in Melbourne, a city that makes my heart ache.

Tomorrow is my Dad’s birthday. To commemorate, I asked a few people to draw pictures of my Dad and the things that remind me of him. Then I stuck them all on a blog. As I was putting them all online today, I was overwhelmed and honoured by how much time went in to them. I hope my Dad likes them!

I know I said I wouldn’t be around much but I keep finding things I want to share with you all.
This great article gets under the skin of the re-design of the New York Times magazine.
