Check me out…blog feature + vintage shoes!

This really cool girl from wirefox did a fun blog feature on QUiD today! Check out her blog and etsy shop and show some love.

And while you’re over at etsy, you really should take a peek at the new vintage shoes I put in the shop. There are a pair of stuart weitzmans I know you’ll [...]

I heart: Cowboy Boots!

I’m a Texas girl at heart. So it should come as no surprise that I can’t remember a time when cowboy boots haven’t graced my closet. In style or out, I don’t care, I just love ‘em! How do you feel about cowboy boots?

There’s no place like…home?

I love, love, love (love!) travelling. At least every two months I get this itch to go somewhere. Anywhere. As a little girl I traveled quite often with my grandparents. We went everywhere from New Mexico to D.C. and I loved every little minute of it. That being said, I have no special place in [...]

The tops: Topshop comes to US

If you haven’t checked it out yet, the UK retailer, Topshop, has opened an online store for those of us across the pond. There are so many fantastically euro things I’m dying to get my hands on!

Fringe Benefit: the hunt for good mascara

I happen to be one of those girls obsessed with makeup. Like a painter holding a palette or a graphic designer with his color wheel…the makeup counter is my candy store. I’m always on the hunt for the perfect product to highlight this or shade that. Thus, I have tried many (many!) products. Mascara, however, [...]

love me tender…

I’m such a moody person. Especially when it comes to fashion and artsy things. One minute I’m ready to paint on the red lipstick and don a leather jacket and the next I just want to settle down into the sunshine with a cup of warm tea. That’s me…and I don’t think I mind it.

What I want for Valentine’s Day

The funny thing about blogging is that I run across all sorts of things that I love. Some things I think would be perfect for someone else. Then there are those things I would personally take into my home and love dearly. Here are a few of those things!

ooh la la…

The World of Fornarina

I’ve been a fairly faithful follower of the Fornarina Urban Beauty Show for about 3 years now (wow, that was a tongue twister) . This runway alternative is more like a space age circus dream than fashion show. And I love it.
That being said, the ‘09 spring line is out and their are quite a few little [...]

Show me some love…

The big red heart day is quickly approaching. I just got the boy his gift (i can’t tell you what it is, he might be reading). If you have a pretty little gift idea I’d love to see! Email me a pic of your idea and you might just see it here!

Haute Seat: Sleep Dream Play
