electric...

I picked up this beautiful dress by Cynthia Vincent at Parlor yesterday... I'm in love with the electricity of the blue and am totally wearing it to their site/blog launch party tomorrow night!!



Yup, if you're female and in the Boston area, there's free drinks and tons of shopping to be had at Parlor (1248 Washington st) starting a 6pm... With designers like Nicholas K, LA Made, Free People, Cynthia Vincent, and many more, there's no reason why you shouldn't BE THERE!

...oh did I tell you I designed their lovely new site???? :)

liza giles...









I bookmarked this post a while ago and just came across it again. Wow - what a great splash of color on yet another gloomy day!

Spotted on An Indian Summer.... there are no words.

Tomato senya's photography is ___________...

Some beautiful photos of Queen Anne's Lace sent to me by the lovely Alissa of All Things Alissa.









...in response to my Summer blog. Let's keep this going :)

You'll do.

pups...





OMG I just spotted this adorableness on {this is glamorous}!

After a month of working from home, my craving for a little puppy-friend has only intensified... Not only would they give me unconditional love, they'd give me someone to chat with and a reason to get out of the house :)

Now if only I can convince my landlord...

puddles...

It's raining cats and dogs in Boston today... sadly even my cute rubber rain boots couldn't handle it! Looking for inspiration but the rain's got me down.

This beautiful, rainy pic, however, was taken right down the street from my apartment. How lovely :)




PS - Yoga-thon tomorrow! Let me know if you'd like to do a last-minute donation :)

fancy...



Spotted on Domino Mag's Daily Dose... I'm finding it quite lovely - although I would totally paint the yellow parts a muted gray or chocolate brown.

Sorry for the lack of posts - it's been a super busy week. PLUS I started yet another blog for my yogi-friends, What's That Pose? It's a work in progress that been distracting me a bit :)

Thank you.

julie evans...



I've long been a fan of Julie Evans' bright, indian-inspired artwork. Here are a few newer (not sure how new?) pieces. I love this direction - so soft and intriguing - such a departure from the colorful, saturated work I'm familiar with of hers. I'd LOVE to be able to hang the above painting, "garland", in my apartment someday... Actually, I'd love to hang ALL of her work in my apartment :)

Off to yoga training this weekend - hope everyone has a a good one!

We'll be doing approximately 400 poses to raise money for a great cause! If you feel like donating, you can write a check to ST. JUDE and mail it to me or visit this page for other options...

(if you're interested, leave a comment and I'll email you my address :)

happy...



Had a great indian lunch with my Dad today and have been re-touching photos while listening to Miles Dave's "Ascenseur Pour L'échafaud" for the past hour... If you don't have this album, let me know and I'll pando it to you - so good.

just happy... xx

summer...



Thanks to my lovely friend, Erica, for sending me her pictures of daucus carota (queen anne's lace) from her vacation this summer... oooh I already miss the beach!



PS - If you ever happen to snap a great pic of these flowers, send them along - I'm designing a tattoo of them so I'm always on the lookout for inspiration AND I'll also showcase them on here of course :)

why didn't i think of that...


Giant earbud speakers at Urban Outfitters. Clever clever.

ouno...





I'm loving this bedspread made of scarves by Ouno designs! It's so colorful and something you know you won't find in your neighbors' apartment - totally one of a kind! Ah.. if only it wasn't $550

...pretty pillows too!

garland...



New favorite - bound garland pose/bound malasana. By far the best shoulder stretch I've ever experienced.

sigh...











Just looking through fashion week recaps and landed blissfully on Monique Lhuillier's Spring line... oh. my. god. stunning.

If only I had a ball to go to... or a red carpet to walk down. Damn, I need to become rich and famous stat!

live and let frye...

It's been a frustrating day and in my book, frustration leads to shopping. Well, so does anxiety, depression, happiness, boredom...

Anyways, I finally bought my Frye boots!



First, I tried on the
Campus in Saddle (as they were the ones I originally wanted) then I got extremely distracted by the Paige Riding Boots (a little too tall and not flattering to the calves), and finally rested on the Veronica Slouch (less structured and not completely flat, coming to a good height below the knee).

Ahhh, the wallet rests happy...
for now.

dreamy saturday...



oh to be the main character in this story....
