i'm constantly, subtly rearranging my spaces. here's the living room, circa yesterday afternoon. newest updates include: turning the lucite desk-cum-dining-table base on its side, repurposing the piece into a coffee table // fresh lampshades // replacing my worn-to-shreds barcelona chair with a cozy black velvet wingback // picking this delightful footstool up on amazon.com.
It's Halloween, happy celebrating to all of you who do! As for me I'm debating whether or not to put my costume on again since I celebrated during the last couple of days, sharing a bottle of organic wine with my bf, and lusting over this new girl Waleria.
I stumbled across this coat over at ebay fashion outlet a few weeks ago.. not sure if it was the fear of the cold weather I was about to travel back to that week, or because it was a ebay find, that made me click it home asap..
the fact that it was an ebay listing, my senses sent signals to my brain to automatically click on the 'buy it now' button, but my point here is that the glory of the outlet is that they have large stocks on most of the items.
A little bit of promotion is hopefully allowed, as I happen to be involved with the new launch of ebay fashion outlet! Remember this behind the scenes post? I actually saw the glossy printed look-book just a few days ago and dare I say that I am even on the cover? crazy cool, more on that later!
I am about to move to a much colder climate, and as I pack up all my worldly possessions, I'm wondering what I'm going to be wearing though the long Swedish winter. Fall is fun, winter is oppressive. However, looking at Lars Andersson's latest video lookbook has made me feel a bit more inspired. Lars is Swedish, so he must know the old adage, "There's no such thing as bad weather, only inappropriate clothing." Therefore he provides a perfect way to counter the elements in style: layer upon layer of thick, lush, heavy knits. In his video, two models chase each other across the rooftops of New York wearing his dramatic creations, which have the practicality of warmth, yet are still elegant, moody, dark, and romantic. Hoping to master this look by the time deep dark December rolls around.
In the spirit of Halloween I give you Fashimals - a tumblr dedicated to portraying fashion icons as animals. Are you dying or are you dyinggggagagagalolz?

Pretty girls in pretty clothes in pretty fields. One of the things I seem to gravitate towards often. Also I saw In Time tonight. It was okay, but something in me just isn't fully ready to take JT completely seriously...
This week is my last week in New York before leaving for Stockholm for six months. I've been trying to get out as much as possible, but yesterday's sudden winter storm put a damper on my night's Halloween plans. I refuse to let any other evenings go to waste, and will be stopping by these two parties and encourage you to join.
Although many chose to forgo Halloween festivities altogether, it has always been one of my favorite holidays, mainly because it involved collecting candy by the bag full. Figuring out costumes can be tough, but luckily I have a full drawer of old Six Six Sick outfits that can dress me for many Halloweens to come. Tomorrow I plan on joining Occupy Halloween for the Halloween Parade, and then heading over to Patricia Field's Halloween bash at Co-op.
On Thursday, I'm planning on stopping by the YPX MOCA Gala, where there will be an open bar and dim sum from 7-9pm. This year will be celebrating honorees who have made significant contributions in the Digital Arena. Tickets are available here.
Not only do I love the name Elouise, I love me a smiling model--and she's gorgeous! Spending the day reading writing and recovering from halloween festivities, happy sunday!
Keeping my posts somewhat witchy for the Halloween weekend, even though my celebrations have pretty much come to a close. Good news is, there was a disposable camera involved so I'll post some of the goods when I get the film developed.
