Lean with it, Rock with it

Driving around the Sierra foothills last weekend I fell in love with this barn. I admire it's tenacity.



The colors remind me that summer is coming to an end, but let's not think about that.

Missing Something?

I'm digging this Nicholas Kirkwood structured shoes for fall. We've all seen cutouts by now, but I like this take on the cutout heel and sole. The missing pieces create such beautiful lines.

I really wanted to post them all, but I'm going to hold myself back so you can check them out yourself at Nicholas Kirkwood

Bag Envy

I am really craving a luxe bag right now. Since I can't afford any, I created a quiz to see how well you know the most iconic (drool-worthy) bags of all time.

Gigantic Mystery

I don't think many people have seen Gigantic. Before Sunday night, I had never even heard of this film despite the stellar cast- Paul Dano, Zooey Deschanel, Paul Goodman... Yes, Paul Goodman was in an indie flick.

I started to realize about 10 minutes in WHY I had never heard of this movie. It makes no sense. I mean, not to ruin it for you but at least one of the characters:
-does mushrooms with dad
-hawks up a brain tumor like snot
-wants to adopt a Chinese baby
-is stalked by a homeless man
-kills a homeless man
-studies stress in rats
-signs up for chef school in France
-enjoys creating pinatas of famous dictators
-wears adorable indie clothes and stares wide eyed

Guess which one is Zooey! But seriously, it's like they sat down and tried to figure out how to make a movie without a story line. So kooky, not enough cute.

I Need to Stop Saying "Bish"

And I need to start blogging more. Looking at some of these past entries is too funny. As an easy welcome back- here's a music video from a man you will be hearing a lot more from soon. Adam Tensta is gonna be huge!
