for the party in you

the best thing about fab.com is being able to buy things that most hipsters can make but don't want to spend the time to. a perfect example is this necklace i just bought:

handmade of lace, wood, glass and strung on a brass chain. inspired by streamers/balloons/party hats, its aptly called the "party necklace". cursive design studio, $33.

Love of my life

Custom Vans using old Hermes scarves. These are pretty much the most amazing tennies I've ever seen!!

An Ear for an Ear

I am obsessed with these pieces from french jewelry line Calourette!!!

So whimsical, love it. Unfortunately none of these pieces are carried in US stores. Eff the weak American dollar for making it difficult for me to buy beautiful international jewelry!

Calourette did however do a capsule collection for Urban Outfitters.  These earrings are amazing and are in my shopping basket!

Too bad this version of the finger ring is already sold out in my size:

Deal of the Day

Last night I just discovered the greatness that is the Uniqlo sweatpant! Usually I don't find anything I like in the store unless it's from +J but in an attempt to replace my pilling black sweatpants from Target, I went to scope out the lounge section downstairs. In that back area, there are millions of little packaged treasures. Usually they are the scary packages of baby pink camisoles but these sweatpants... my new favorite thing. Wearing them now and they are super comfy. They are also really super skinny with the ribbed ankle so they are super flattering. I'm going to wear these out with some dressy shoes and a blazer, and that will be my eff you to all the legging-wearing fools out there.

This was the color I got. Dark heather charcoal with a light grey tie. I love that the tie is not white. Something different. Oh, and did I mention these bad boys are $12.90?! Yes, awesome. They also come in black, light grey, and blue. You can see them on here on the Uniqlo UK site but you'll have to go to the store to snatch em up.
