le bebe is def cramping my style for now. or drastically changing it. i find myself dressing for him. and i've never ever dressed for a boy 'til now. i love to wear colors and patterns that capture his eyes, inspire him to reach out and touch, make him smile. sorry loveys, i'm whipped. this boy has stolen my heart and my need to wear heels FOR NOW.

love,

'tis the season i literally cover my eyes from seeing things i myself crave acquiring for myself... i do this in lieu of #YAY!, acquiring awesomeness for others, i blame my dad for this wee slip up... it was #BlackFriday & he sent me in ann taylor loft to pick out a sweater for myself from him for christmas (damn, i'm sounding more selfish by the second. must fix!).

he is doing his very best to carry on my precious mom's christmas tradition—a cozy sweater, warm PJs and an enriching book for us kids. and he thought it best i choose my own sweater in light of my particular-ness. sweet dad.

he thoughtfully got in the massive line winding its way around the store as i roamed every nook & cranny for my christmas sweater. once i finally found "IT" i joined him in line and mistakingly spotted the above antique-look bracelet, shimmering and sparkling its way into my hand and on to my wrist.

yep, the sales lady scanned it there when she rung me up. damn all those little goodies wise stores put surrounding their check out areas. 'twas too fab to pass up. especially with a sneaky lure like 50% off the entire store that day 'til noon! (same sale happening right now online i see, bloody hell, NOT letting myself buy this cookie monster awesomeness, hmm why wasn't it in store?!)

yeah, no more wandering into stores that contain merch i might dig. guess that leaves auto parts stores... #grrr. is this as hard for you as it is for me?

SH!T ROBOT featuring nancy whang

feels like the '80s, i'm at the swim club in raleigh, NC munching on monster chews. this song would have totally fit coming on that crackly radio between culture club and duran duran. so that's #LOVE.

thank you, RCRD LBL.

fur real faux.

grey's my fave neutral. blue is the center of the universe. paisleys pop. faux is whoa. skinnies rule. that is all. well, now that wouldn't be like me would it? i ramble. it felt awesome to pull on my fave grey jeans again. they just begged to be worn with the ancient shirt i dug out from the back of my closet after admiring & being inspired by a different emanuel ungaro blouse on sea of shoes' recent post. yep, her hair helped to ignite my courage to go rouge too. but loveys, it's the grey & blue faux fur vest that just explodes with cozy rad-ness. onward.

LET'S DANCE

short shorts. fun sound. funky vid.

it's electric.

if you were to spy on me for a week, you would likely see me in this grey leopard knit at least once. probably twice. i love you, zara. in my world it goes with everything. then along came hue's killer teal corduroy leggings. damn it i want more. got an email from hue for 25% off your entire order too... tempting little teases. steve madden faux-fur pompom boot covers and no, it's not a wig (halloween is so last month), my new red head.

love ya,

sunlovey

p.s. yesterday's photo shoot & baby L dance party were soundtracked by violator.

wild victorian.

sssssssnake slithers into my closet like mad as of late. how to soften it? sunday school socks...in black & cream and frou frou feathers in the hair, of course! j'adore for sure.

love,

sunlovey

p.s. cutting the top off my head was conveniently unintentional. my roots are horrific. they'll be gone soon...

unexpected inspiration

saffron & teal

somehow i get real simple. yes, the mag. i most certainly didn't subscribe. the name alone kind of irritates me. why would anyone ever choose real simple? i'm more of a totally complex girl. nevertheless, the cover of their "fashion" issue actually got me to open it & flip through and within that issue i found the above page and well, something so simple as two hues paired together captured me and voila! this look started coming together in my brain.

of course there's nothing simple about it. no way, never.

lace upon lace upon lace...

oh the places i want to go...

way too fancy is just right.

snake charm.

love,
