Cuteness Overload
Wow, new puppies are a HANDFUL. Our little guy is curious about everything, and we have to be ever vigilant to make sure he's not chewing on random items or jumping up and knocking things over. But he is one sweet, gentle boy alright, and very eager to learn and to please. We found out that San Francisco Animal Control was about to put him down, because they deemed him too "mouthy." Uh hello, ALL puppies are mouthy until they get some training. It just goes to show that the bias against pitties is staggering, even here in San Francisco where they're a very prevalent breed and we have so many great breed ambassadors. Hats off to Grateful Dogs Rescue, who stepped in just in time to save our pup!
The outfit is from last week. I'd been wanting to wear this top/cardigan combo again, but had struggled with how to make the outfit look different from the first time I paired them. The maxi skirt offered the perfect solution, though to be honest I think I still prefer the original outfit, and would probably wear it again verbatim. Hard to believe the original outfit is nearly 2 years old. Cardigan: H&M
Top: Red Dress Shoppe
Skirt: Anthropologie
Shoes: Born
Bracelets: Cost Plus World Market
Mark and I are suffering from cuteness overload these days.
The Puppy Has Landed
Well, it's official: we have a puppy! Puppy doesn't yet have a name, but that shouldn't stop you from admiring his cuteness. The shelter was calling him Chumley, but we figure he's going to end up being quite large and regal-looking, so we're trying to think of a name that will suit him when he gets older.
Right now we're fostering him to make sure it works out with Georgie, and in a month or so we'll finalize the adoption. He's a very sweet boy; a handful to be sure, but a quick learner and a big goofball. We think he's pit mixed with boxer, or maybe lab.
Since last night was his first night with us and we therefore didn't sleep much, that's about all I've got for you today. Regular programming will resume tomorrow....

Suitably Fun
I wore this outfit on a day that I was going directly from work to meet a friend for drinks. Thus it needed to be comfortable enough to wear all day, and warm enough for the chilly evening without requiring me to haul around an additional jacket; it also needed to be suitably fun for an evening out. I thought the pirate flair of this outfit accomplished the fun element, while the stretchy layers and flat boots gave me the warmth and comfort I needed.These ponte knit pants are incredibly comfortable, and have in fact become a staple for evenings out. They have the sleek, fitted look of leggings, but are thick and opaque enough to wear as pants. Plus, the stretchy waistband is comfortable after several hours of sitting down -- and even after several beers.

if Suri Cruise had a Burn Book... the remarks are way too bitchy, but hilarious!
"JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE A FERRAGAMO HANDBAG DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN BEHAVE LIKE A CHILD."
wonder what will Tom & Katie think when they see it... and they will, very soon :)

Suri's Style
Suri has worn this Flower Print skirt many times since debuting it in December 2010. As of today, we still dont have a 100% id match, although i was sent many suggestions.. my guess - it is either Old Navy or Target or H&M, smth cheap.. could be wrong though :)
on the picture above is the closest Copy-Cat option: Navy Cerry Print Skirt by Cordelia de Castellane.
and another Copy-Cat option: SS'10 Skirt by Jacadi, it is close, but the print are different.
and one more of Suri's stylish garments - Red Dress with Necklace, no id so far; but GAP just released a very similar Sparkly Graphic T with necklace.

Yo, Anthropologie Has Some Seriously Cute Stuff Right Now
Usually I don't conduct too many dealings within Anthropologie. And by "dealings," I mean I don't usually wander in, try on a bunch of stuff, hem and haw and then leave. Usually that's because I find the price points to induce no small amount of pants-shitting (though I don't know why because Anthropolgie's prices are barely different than half the shit at Bloomingdale's and I don't get the howling fantods over their prices). The other reason is that sometimes Anthropologie feels a little too art teacher/ garden party/ lady in her late '30s to me. SO many cheery brights and not enough bitchy blacks. However, I wandered into the Chelsea Market Anthropologie tonight, and DUDES, there were some seriously cute pieces.
Trust me, this orange polka dot top is approximately 40% cuter in person.
It's rare that I see a horse necklace I love as much as my Pade Vavre horse necklace, which I wear so much it might as well be a tattoo. But this Marion Vidal horse necklace is a close runner-up.
A double-headed horse necklace that looks TOTALLY deco? GAME RECOGNIZE GAME.
There's something Balenciaga-Miu Miu-y about these ruffled heels.
Speaking of Miu Miu, if you can't afford those Miu Miu glitter pumps everyone's creaming over, then perhaps you can afford these silver sparkly heels instead.
These bass-ackward Gaga heels aren't really me, but I'm totally shocked that they're Anthropologie! Anthro! You have a smoking-in-the-bathroom-between-classes side to you after all! I'm impressed!
A fitted, quilted black leather Leifsdotter jacket? I'll drink to that. I'll drink in that, actually.

Ho-Hum
This was one of my ho-hum outfits from when I was still sick (I'm feeling better now). I've noticed that when I'm sick I tend to wear pants more often, probably because it's less work than dealing with tights and slips and all that. If we lived somewhere hot I'm sure it would be just the opposite; throw on a sundress and some sandals, and you're good to go. Out here it's almost never warm enough for that, so pants are the easier option because there are no additional leg coverings that need to be selected.
At any rate it provided the impetus to wear these cords again, which as you may recall are down to their last few wears. A careful examination of the nap proved them to be still wearable for probably a few more times yet. Next time I hope it's actual inspiration, and not illness, that brings them out again.Top: Max Studio

Approximation
Inspired by my flapper-esque Bastille Day outfit, I put together this outfit, which has 20's daywear proportions. When I think of daywear in the flapper era, I always think of drop waist dresses with pleats, a look that can be approximated by wearing a fitted tunic-length top over a knee-length A-line skirt. This approximation also tends to be more flattering than an actual drop-waist dress for some reason. What I was going for was just a hint of a 20's vibe, not an actual reproduction of the style.
Over the weekend Mark and I attended our friends' wedding up on Mt. Tamalpais. When we met up with our dog sitter to drop Georgie off, she had brought along an adorable pit mix puppy that she's fostering, and of course I instantly fell in love and have been obsessing about him ever since (I think the dog sitter brought him along expressly for this purpose). We've been discussing the pros and cons of getting another dog for awhile now; obviously it would be a lot more work and more expense and hassle when we go out of town, but it would also be fun for Georgie as well as a chance to rescue another dog who's in need of a home. Plus, twice the snuggling potential! Perhaps there's another dog in our future...

Jenny Packham Sorrento Wedding Dress: I'm Selling Mine!!
When I was looking at wedding dresses, I knew I didn't want one of those enormous princess cupcake dresses, which is what I call those dresses that take up the whole room and make you look like a human wedding cake. I was going for a 1930s Hollywood Deco screen siren thing, and Jenny Packham totally made that happen. Of course, it cost me: real talk, I paid I think somewhere around $4000 for my Jenny Packham dress. Was it worth it? HELLS YES it was worth it. Is it ABSURD to spend the cost of a used car on something you wear for like, nine hours of your entire life? YES. Of course. As someone who's usually totally frugal, I absolutely know that. But I found this dress very early on in my search, and since I also believe in the value of opportunity costs, I realized that the money I'd spend on this dress was worth the price of not spending the following 10 months of my life continuing to look for wedding dresses and dealing with assholes in bridal shops. Which brings me to my next point: I got my dress at Mark Ingram Bridal Atelier, and they were the most lovely, wonderful people with absolutely phenomenal customer service. (It was just the other bridal places I didn't want to deal with).
I DIGRESS. I'm selling my dress for far less than what I paid for it. It's approximately a US size 8/10 and can of course be sized down. I had some alterations done to the bodice for obvious reasons of support. It's in 99% flawless condition (there's a tiny flaw somewhere on the skirt, but it's so minor I couldn't find it the last time I looked).
I'm in Brooklyn, so it'd probably help if you live in the New York area and can come try it on.
Okay! Want it? Email me or leave a comment with your email. Yay! We're all pretty!
By the way, here are a few wedding photos: One of the dress, one of us GETTIN' IT DONE at Divine Studio on Lafayette and 4th Street here in Manhattan (HIGHLY recommend them for your wedding) and one of me as EPIC BARBRA (Tamarbra?)
