simba

let me introduce you to a friend of mine. (isn't his hair is amazing? the secret is the fact that he uses only tigi shampoo. true story.). now meet simba, an afghan hound. i remember dreaming of an afghan when i was a child. i've always thought they have certain grace plus the fact that they're beeaauuutiful.




i'm wearing all second hand except for shoes and the bag.

others trash / others treasure

i found this beautiful dress saturday at a flea market - is it not amazing?? although we've seen floral prints to the point of exhaustion i think this piece is very chloë, very cool, very good for new york. i found other really cool stuff as well, two bags, a perrfect long lace skirt (will post pics later) and couple shirts. my love for flea markets has gone to a whole new level.

a familiar face

i bumped into a friend of mine today. we were talking of various things - nice sites and blogs among other. he introduced me to refinery29. a moment ago when i headed over to check the website i clicked on the 'sales & shopping' banner and there it was - me. the picture is by the hel looks crew.

gregoire alexandre

'gosh what a talent' is nearly all i can pull of right now. i didn't realize just how versatile this guy is; from yelle covers to advertisements with a recognisable surreal touch. the sets he builds are simple, clever and fun, something you wish you'd come up with yourself. whew, all that and he's mere 27.
