Hair Questions

2010-09-10T10:28:00.000-07:00

So fall is def creeping right around the corner and it leads me to always think, what color will my hair be for this season. I always go dark when the leaves drop and I can't quite figure out how dark this season. I came across these beautiful pictures and I think it makes me want to do something cherry wood?

I will have to consult my colorist on this one in the next month or so.

Marc Jacobs Cheap No More

2010-09-08T10:20:00.000-07:00

So it is true. The Marc Jacobs Accessory store on Bleeker has officially closed.

It will be replaced but do not expect to see the staple key chains, compact mirrors or canvas bags. Actually expect to come out of pocket.

I have to say I am a little sad, I was just taking a look at my old Marc key chain thinking

I need a new one.

It has been lightyears that we have seen Nicole in her infamous party days/ways and since has done a total 180 essentially coming out on top. With 2 ADORABLE children, a fiance, and 2 flourishing clothing lines to date, I would say she is now a mature force to be reckoned with. I have always liked Nicole but was glad when she hit rock bottom. With the ability to pull her self up by her own boot straps. I wish more Hollywood do-do's would take a page from her book.

"A lot of times in life, there's a big gap in what you're suppose to do with work and figuring out who you are and how you're going to succeed in this world, ...Success being only measured by doing what you want to do and what makes you happy-not success as in power-and figuring that out or trying to accomplish that, you realize, takes a tremendous amount of homework and passion and diligence."

- Drew Barrymore, Nylon Aug 2010

My obsession with Jack Davey's front woman is crazy.

I absolutely have adored her style since I came across her almost 3 years ago.

An avid stalker of their music and blog today my eyes could not contain themselves.

I knew that she was working on a line of accessories that would include copious amounts of feathers so I was a little on edge as to when I would really get to feast on what she had to offer.

Behold some of the sneak peaks from the line.

Courtney Love

2010-07-17T08:17:00.000-07:00

So a while back I watched the "Behind The Music" on Courtney Love

and I have to say it was one of the most interesting things I have watched ever.

Her story is incredible and I feel like I actually know her as opposed to

her persona.

What I found most interesting was the controversy surrounding the 1992 Vanity Fair Article.

Entitled "Strange Love", they (Lynn Hirschberg actually) kind of made her look more unfit then necessary. Well in my opinion, but who is to say?

Fall, I am ready

2010-07-12T09:35:00.000-07:00

Ok so as per usual, I did not post in an efficient manner and waited until the Jeffrey Campbell shoe's I have been lusting after somehow got taken off the site. Let me back up a bit. JC has delivered their newest collection for fall and I am absolutely in love! In particular with this one boot (similar to the image below that I snagged from NastyGirl, of where you can purchase such beauties) that

I have pretty much been stalking.

Every couple days I would look at it (don't act like you don't either),

fantasizing about them and me in the Fall. Today when I am about ready to myb purchase and post, BAM its not longer on the site. HUH? Where the hell did it go? And not on the JC site? I am confused.

With no evidence to let you know how exceptional they were I can only leave you with a substitute for now. Hopefully they will appear again and you can understand what I am obsessing over.

Enjoy.

So I made a decision a while ago I needed these for the summer.

As per usual I slept and they are virtually sold out in the WORLD.

Damn it.

Or so I thought...

I peeped this early this morning on the JC site.

And the hunt begins as to where to find them.

I think I know.

I liked her so much that I followed her to 3 salons and will travel the world if necessary. I mean right now my brows are so damn beastly that I will for-go any maintenance until I am in her genius hands (like it has literally been almost 2 months since I have seen her and its wayyyyyyy overdue).

V.V. Brown

She is British. The first time I came across her was when I was reading about her in a Nylon article months back and like a Google psycho got to the bottom of who she is and have been completely fascinated ever since. Her personal story is actually really good.
