Take Me To A Desert Place
This weekend was filled with wind, rain, wind and more rain mixed with the occasional pounding of hail. It's hard to believe that only one week ago I was in Palm Springs (yes I'm still harping on that) enjoying 86 degrees well into the evening. In order to avoid slipping into a major depression due to gloomy weather, broken heater, and derelict landlord I basked in the glow of photos from last weekend when I wore a maxi skirt I recently picked up at Anthropologie.
I've never really seen myself as a maxi skirt person and would like to take this moment to thank Carey from Corks & Caftans for what I think may become an addiction. At first I felt as though I'd conjured up Laura, Mary and Ma Ingalls all in one, but once I hit the desert it was straight up Dances with Wolves (or as my friend Andy would say - Dances with Wool- when blanket is present.) only I opted to pull on a long ribbed tank over top to mix it up. Suffice it to say a fave new outfit has been born.
Blanket and I wanted to build a fire. We're considering relo to a tee pee.
~Winter Kate-Gypsy Rose Vest, James Perse-Ribbed Tank Dress, Odille-Maxi Skirt~
Can we take a moment to discuss this vest? I've been stalking it since last year and
picked it up on sale just after Christmas. Remember I first mentioned it here?
When I opened the package and swung it over my t-shirt and sweats it was game over.
I may or may not have even worn it to bed once. Okay maybe twice.

Details on skirt = magic. I can't stop wearing it around the house.
Head over to Facebook to catch more pictures of blanket from this post -
all taken in Hipstamatic and totally ridic.

Anyway here's to brighter and warmer days ahead. My heat's back on just in time for the work week, and Blanket is on standby. Friday are you out there?
Embracing Your Inner Hippie
Can you say swing the pendulum to the opposite end of the spectrum?
Just yesterday I was rambling on about my love for summertime nautical attire and now here I am today about to gush on boho chic. I guess the truth is I relate more to the actual boho vibe. I've always been the girl with the moccasins, the frayed denim, the fringe and all that goes with it. It's just me.
And hey, the beauty of fashion is its versatility right? One moment we're in one situation or mood dressed for the occasion, and the next our scenario has changed and so, therefore, must our outfit. Being a girl is so all encompassing. How do we do it?? (chuckle chuckle. uh, sorta)
In any event I have spent a lot of time recently thinking about my summer wardrobe - specifically how to work with what I've got and save some moolah. My inner hippie is just waiting for the weather to consistently warm up so I can dig out the goods and be zen all summer. Last week I shared with you my desired summer hair...this week I polyvore'd up just one version of what you will likely see me wearing this summer. I hope it provides you with some insight in case you have an interest in this style, but are wondering where to start.
Image details (clockwise from top): Winter Kate Gypsy Rose Vest, Marie-Helene de Taillac Lemon Quartz Ring, Lucky Brand Jaelyn Belt, ASOS Wooden and Enamel Bangles, Mango Mulita Fringe Flat Ankle Boots, Siwy Camilla Cutoffs in Loveless, Urban Outfitters Medallion Ring, Linea Pelle Double Wrap Triple Stud Bracelet, Sabina Mini Pouch, Fossil Summer Wrist Strap
If I'm not wearing a tunic or dress, the denim shorts with a white t or tank are always the foundation of my boho chic look. From there I may layer on a vest of some sort (silk is also a great option because it's super flowy and can add a bit of color), a mish-mash of bracelets be it gold, silver, wood, lucite or a blend of each, rings to coordinate, either a brightly woven bag (if going with neutral top) or as pictured above a crossbody pouch, and finally a choice of shoes which may be fringed moccasins, a mid-calf to knee-high boot, or a strappy gladiator. This is where the summer hair becomes crucial. Remember my wavy quest from last week...it really does compliment the look. And of course you can always throw on a headband if you like. I'm not much of a headband girl, but I've seen others carry them off quite beautifully.
And now please do share with me ladies: your thoughts on the hippie vibe...oui ou non?
