La Garçonne : Loeffler Randall Eleanor Gathered Platform

First to recommend

Description

hullo gorgeous. these eleanor platforms are what one would call 0n-trend. but really, this is the type of shoe that never really goes out of style. wear them now with thick grey tights and short skirts or wear them later, with bare legs and any style of jean you desire.

so rough, but so very pretty!

Harmonie Intérieure ..... atelier de décoration ....... home decoration workshop

Description

instead of paint or wallpaper, these gorgeous arty decals are a very simple way to make the ordinary into something rather chic, modern & extraordinary... and who doesn't want a little bit of that in their lives?

Matthew Williamson Valdese beaded dress

First to recommend

Description

if we were playing the money-is-no-object game, i'd have no objection to procuring this 'valdese' beaded dress by matthew williamson. a little flirty, but decidedly modern with an art-deco bent with the intricate beading around the neckline and contract pleated hem. pretty, pretty...

Comptoir des Cotonniers

2 people recommended this item

Description

back in the summer of 2004, i traveled to europe on the cheap. it wasn't for the experience of it, it wasn't for want of it, it was due to a very bad fiscal year for little old me, but it was one of the best trips i have ever taken for a multitude of reasons.

there was, however, one instance where i really felt the sting of not being able to procure any little trinket or piece of clothing, and that was during our last stop, in paris, where we were attending the wedding of two friends. as i walked to the monoprix to pick up some groceries for said friends, i happened upon a little store named 'comptoir des cotonniers' and it was love at first sight.

the aesthetic to my eye is something akin to marni, but more to the point a 'marni-light'. not as obvious in its quirk, but chic in every way, especially in the way that only parisian women can be.

on this past trip however, where my financial situation wasn't nearly as bleak as before, i made sure to make my way over to the nearest comptoir des cotonniers i could find, which just happened to be in milan. and so for now, my obsession has been sated - but i'm not sure for how long and the little matter of the site not offering online shopping makes me just a little bit more than sad.

parfait dress

First to recommend

Description

i know it's been ages since i've been around, but when i found this 'parfait' dress at anthropologie, i just knew i had to make my foray back into the thisnext community with this beauty.

i rhyme, sometimes.

in any event, you can tell i'm just waiting around until spring comes rolling along, so i can don this delightful little frock.

Betsey Johnson Button Hobo

First to recommend

Description

this bag strikes me as a bit different from the usual ms. johnson aesthetic, but to me it truly doesn't matter, because it is just so utilitarian chic. rough and tumble, but sophisticated and totally functional.

you can get it for your fabulous girlfriend, for yourself.

or for me...

Superbly Efficient Anti-Perspirant & Deodorant

First to recommend

3 people recommended this item

Description

how uncouth of me to bring up such a topic in polite company. but, we all sweat - well, girls glow, but still when it's 40°C outside, we tend to want to keep the glowing under control.

and kiehl's superbly efficient anti-perspirant & deodorant does the trick and makes it snappy. not packed with chemical scents, overpowering you with talcum or spring time rain, this stuff smells like next to nothing and works better than anything i've ever used. and the kicker? it also has the capability to make, ahem, underarm hair softer - making getting rid of it, that much simpler!

conspicuous consumption and impulsive bouts of consumerism at its most primal. it gets ugly sometimes.
