handknit poncho, Clu reversible gold skirt, scarf from Nepal, Frye shoes This is my holiday ode to ‘Ugly Betty’ look (remember that poncho she wore in episode 1 that was so fashionably misguided? Hopefully I am pulling this off better…). My mother actually knitted this for me (hmm… I may be digging myself further into…

40s flair
dress, fur coat & clutch: vintage, shoes: Frye, necklaces: c/o Jewelmint, vintage, liptick: Nars Funny Face While rummaging through my closet on Sunday (see previous post) I unearthed this gem of a nod-to-40s style chair print dress that I actually bought at a vintage store about 3 years ago.

feeling for: rugged chic
This post is partially inspired by my ‘Fall escape’ photo story from earlier this week. ‘Rugged Chic’? I’m loving it, can’t get enough. It’s the Seattle in me? Or perhaps its the aura of permanence and durability in this faction of fashion that and in some ways suggests ‘anti fashion’ – which I sort of…

70s romance
This post is actually a sneak peek of a recent project I was apart of with Sears. Believe it or not, this is me making kute with the Kardashian Kollection for Sears.

Wednesday Addams Halloween Costume
Happy Halloween all! If you are like me, you did much celebrating over the weekend. I was Wednesday Addams from the Addams Family (this post inspired me) for a party Saturday night – complete with gothic Wednesday-appropriate bling and black hair dye (and center parted hair, yikes). It was good, spooky Halloween fun. What…

This ode to Tim Burton editorial from the October 2009 Harper’s Bazaar has become part of my permanent halloween decor collection.
