VOL.01
I found myself on another odd little mission this morning, seeking out miniature habitats on you guessed it– the wonderful world of Pinterest (once you start, you just can’t stop). Now, any manly men that might be reading this, please notice how I did not entitle today’s Pinterest Trend du Jour as ‘Dollhouses’, because I [...]
I came across some photos in the LIFE Archives by fashion photographer Nina Leen, and it seems that back in the day, people liked matching a whole bunch of stuff; shoes, hats, gloves, jackets, umbrellas, you name it. The idea of walking into a shop and seeing a skirt or jacket being sold with a [...]
When most of us think of a trailer, what often comes to mind is … well, trash! But when I saw this amazing 1969 trailer, re-designed by interior designer Rachel Horn, quite frankly, I was thinking more luxury yacht (on wheels) than trailer trash. Rachel’s husband found the original Airstreamer on Craigslist for just 5000 bucks and [...]

As a matter of fact, I began writing this post on my iPhone notepad in the middle of a Miami nightclub on New Years weekend as I sat observing the scene with recurring facial expressions that indicated I might have smelled something really really bad. [...]
1. Making Fun of Hipsters (Even though we all have something in common with that Youtube video) ‘Hipster’ became mainstream in 2010… whether you liked it or not. And then one day… someone wrote a song about it.. And suddenly, the fear of looking too hipster when getting dressed in the morning became very real… In [...]
Beautiful Boys This is 19-year-old Australian model, Andrej Pejic. Andrej is a male model. Yes, that’s right, you read me correctly. Signed to Storm modelling agency since last February, this 6″2, blond hair and blue-eyed beautiful boy is the latest up and coming model to pioneer the growing androgynous trend in the fashion industry. In [...]
The Velvet Slipper Sometimes, a shoe comes along that steals your heart. I never really cared about my shoes. Really. I was never known as the girl with the great shoes. But now, I’m the girl with the velvet slippers. Yup, that’s me, sticking my burgundy fleur-de-lis toes into the shot above. Next to me [...]
