♥ Fashionably Moi! ♥

Wearing: Forever 21 Knit Sweater Top in Pink; Forever 21 Essential V-Neck Cami in White; Forever 21 Double Button Skinny Jean in Cream; Dolce Vita Jollen in Nude.

Reading: Monkey See, Monkey Die (Reigning Cats & Dogs Series # 7) by Cynthia Baxter.

Glamourizing: Nails: OPI Panda-monium Pink from the Hong Kong Collection. It is utterly impossible to resist a kitschy moniker like that, ce n'est pas? Lips: mark Juice Gems in Juicy Honeydew. Eyes: mark’s i-glimmer Illuminating Eye Color in Bronzed.

Listening: Your Love’s A Drug by Leighton Meester. If you ask me, Ms. Leighton deserves far more acclaim for her vocal talents. She is incroyable! J’adore this song!

Adoring: Cross Body Bags that are slight in size yet big on beauty. Mon courant convoite - Rebecca Minkoff’s Laser Cheetah Medium Hobo in Natural, Anya Hindmarch’s Keaton Cross Body Bag in Mushroom, and Derek Lam’s Ume Bag in Mocha. Easy, breezy, beautiful, et functional, J'ai raison? All things Theodora & Callum. The Mediterranean inspiration behind everything they create is swoon-worthy. The shoes - Je meurs at the Biarritz Wedge Sandals in Blue; the accessories – the Medallion Stone Fringe Necklace in Gold/Carnelian has my name written all over it. Me pincer, je dois rêver! White hot skinnies made especially with sultry summer nights in mind a la Current/Elliott’s The Stiletto Skinny Jeans in Sugar, Rich & Skinny’s Legacy Legging Jeans in Vintage White, and J Brand’s 10” Ankle Skinny Jeans in Aspen. Salut, je vous adore!

Watching: Legally Blonde. In the words of Elle Woods, “Whoever said orange was the new pink was seriously disturbed.”

Desiring: Rachel Pally’s Long Fortuna Dress in Cream. Le sigh. If this doesn’t make you feel like a goddess, nothing will. J'ai besoin de! Ash’s Vivian Clog Sandals in Cuoio or Topo (or both, n'est-ce pas?). Oui, my loves; it took me long enough but I have finally unearthed a clog that makes my heart skip a beat. Aimer l'amour! T-Bags’ Strappy Mini Dress in Turquoise. Le side keyholes, le open back cross straps. I’m swooning to the tenth power! Gimme, gimme, gimme!

Quoting: Dr. Seuss - “We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.”

Awaiting: Seychelles Pickford Sandal in Gold. I saw. I swooned. I splurged. Le. Fin.

But enough about moi; let’s talk about…vous. Time to give me the lowdown on your life, lovers! What are you up to this week?


Fashionably yours!

Hey, Erika! Thanks so much for your comment on my blog! You're totally right about Leighton, I LOVE HERRR. She's so underrated, and far more talented & beautiful than Blake Lively. I love her music, she's awesome!
