Kron by Kronkron, nyc, sept.09











i just discovered these sweet treats from Kron by Kronkron. so in love with the '40s inspired shapes, gorgeous color combos and mixxy matchy textures and embellishments. but what i love most is this spread featuring the fancy footwear, shot by the fabulous saga at the neverending story. she also happens to be from reykjavik, a city i dream of visiting one day...soon?

Autumn-atic, NYC, Sept.09

It's a tricky time of year, the Summer sun is shining but the brisk Autumn air calls for a delicate balance of layers. Here are some ideas for squeezing a little more life from your warm weather wardrobe...

In stores:
J.Crew Wool Flannel Short paired with a summery top and textured tights- practically perfect in every way

J.Crew Silk Taffeta Trench paired with a pop of color adds cheer to an early Autumn day...plus it's a great transitional piece that will carry you through Winter with the right layers

J.Crew Wool BF Blazer- a crisp, clean, back-to-school basic for ladies and gents of any age. I'd pair it with matchstick jeans or a mini dress for a fool-proof look.


On the street:
Copenhagen Street Style What a perfect weekend look! This will take you from brunch to the book store, from the flea market to Freeman's. Who could ask for anything more?

late summer shimmer, aug.09


since spotting this image on fashion is poison yesterday i've been obsessing over ways to work some shimmer, glitz, sparkle and glow into my late summer garb. the cardigan is a no-brainer-- its neutral hue will go with basically anything but the sequins add some pizzazz to elevate even the most basic ensemble. also drooling over the ruby red lips and white petals in her hair...
