Icon


Just recently model/designer, Erin Wasson has caught my eye. She is the perfect definition of grunge but with a bit of california-cool. Her signature cutoff shorts are on the top of my list for spring! For Spring '09, Wasson is launching a womenswear collection - Erin Wasson x RVCA - in collaboration with surf and skate lifestyle brand RVCA. So i'm definatly excited to check that out!














Have a Fabulous weekend!
XOXO

Snow Queen

So my week has been peaceful and relaxing which just so happen to be two of my favorite words. I picked up the lastest issue of UK Vogue and was once again amazed by how much better it is then the American version. In particular, the editorial: Snow Queen, caught my eye. The photos were so enchanting and mesmerizing. They seemed to take you to an entirely different universe. It's not even the clothing that I notice, it's more the set and cool color scheme. My two favorites are probably the one above and the one below. I have no clue why....but I absolutly love it!














Well I hope all you guys had a great March Break!
XOXO

When I'm up, I can't get Down







I am so unbelievably pumped for March Break. There are only four more days to go and then I'm FREE to do whatever I want. This week, so far, I've been in such an amazing mood. It's not even that good things have been happening, everything just seems so much brighter. Maybe I'm just giddy from too much excitment about March Break. I've decided that this break, I'm going to do something productive with my life...maybe some volenteering, job searching, soul searching (haha), boy searching etc. Tonight, I've started my streak of "productive-ness" by altering a skirt and dress that I recently bought from Value Village. I hemmed the blue pencil skirt and I definatly think I'm going to wear it tomorow. It's definatly bright enough to fit my mood! As for the darker blue flouncy skirt, I cut the entire dress part of it off and shortened the skirt. It kinda reminds me of the miu miu skirts from last spring and the pattern of the skirt brings me back to the fall Luella collection. I'm not a very good sew-er but I thought I did a pretty good job with these 2 items. I also started a drawing that is part of a series that I'm going to complete over March Break as well. It was inspired from a photo of me and my friend, Siobhan. It's such a quirky picture, I couldn't let it pass by. I think I'm going to illustrate it with guache and markers. Hopefully you guys are just as excited for March Break and if not, I hope at least, my ranting has gotten you a little bit pumped!!
Yours Truly,

Alice

Blushing Red

I think i dreamt about these babies last night. There were millions of pairs of Christian Louboutin shoes falling from this sky, they grew on trees, and sprouted as wild flowers in fields. If only that actually happened... These are possible the most amazing shoes I have ever seen and I want them sooo badly...Unfortunatly they're just a "little" bit out of my budget...
Maybe if i dream really hard tonight, they'll appear under my pillow. I'm crossing my fingers!

LOVE,
Alice

The girl in the striped tights.


















It's one of those lazy dazy sundays. Plans for the day: absolutly nothing. Highlight of the day: lounging around in a tank that says: This is what a feminist looks like. This is a very misleading shirt considering the fact that I am the furthest thing from a feminist. Anyways, these photos are a couple weeks old from my friend Julia's house. We spent hours picking out what I was going to wear to a semi-formal and finally deciding on a gold skirt and american apparel dress. My favorite part of the outfit is definatly the tights. The pictures don't even capture half of their amazing-ness. So...I'm going to get back to my un-eventful sunday with a marathon of Gilmore Girls...perhaps?
Yours truly,
Alice
P.S:
wearing: american apparel dress, Asos skirt(curtosy of Julia), Club Monaco tights, BCBG booties.
