Currently coveting...

Anything and everything Leopard Print.  They say a leopard can't change his spots but for whatever reason the second I put this print on I automatically feel sexier.  A pair of peep toe leopard print pumps would put a flirtations twist to any woman's strut.  Here are a few things I'm going wild over, a few things that have tested my ability to stay away from the debit card...  

 Insanely rad dress featuring a leopard print top with caged back. Deep scoop neckline, unlined. Perfect paired with a lace bra and peep-toe wedges! 
"Caged Leopard Dress" $62.00 on ShopNastyGal.com





Oversized taupe and black leopard print poncho featuring reverse prints on each side and fringed ends. Looks amazing belted with a drapey tee and skinnies!
 "Spotted Fringe Poncho" $48.00 On ShopNastyGal.com




A très chic animal-print accent in luxurious calf hair. Designed it to be worn at the waist.
"Calf Hair Belt" $60 at JCrew.com



 
100% large leather bag perfect for a over night get away or a fashionable alternative to a work bag. 
"Leopard Bag" $180.00 at TopShop.com


NOTE: All of these items should not be worn in one outfit.  
Shop away.... you know you want to!

Dangerous, absolutely.

"I must learn to love the fool in me, the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control, loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises, laughs and cries."
Theodore Isaac Rubin

Friends Friday.


“Even though we've changed and we're all finding our own place in the world, we all know that when the tears fall or the smile spreads across our face, we'll come to each other because no matter where this crazy world takes us, nothing will ever change so much to the point where we're not all still friends.”


LOVE YOU ALL, MAJORLY.

I collect antiques. Why? Because they're beautiful.


More than ecstatic that tomorrow is Friday...  My moms is coming to spend the weekend with me in my new city, San Francisco.  We have lots of plans including dinner reservations at Salt,  attending a 21+ movie theater where we will sip cocktails and lounge on over sized reclining sofas and antique shopping till we drop.  For now enjoy this collection of photos that has inspired me to find the most perfect accessories for my now bare apartment bedroom .  I'll be sure to post my fabulous finds next week.   Till then...
xoxo




I'm just the way I'm supposed to be...


Something always brings me back to you
It never takes too long
No matter what I say or do
I still feel you here 'til the moment I'm gone

You hold me without touch
You keep me without chains
I never wanted anything so much
Than to drown in your love and not feel your rain

Set me free, leave me be
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am and I stand so tall
I'm just the way I'm supposed to be
But you're on to me and all over me

You loved me 'cause I'm fragile
When I thought that I was strong
But you touch me for a little while
And all my fragile strength is gone

Set me free, leave me be
I don't wanna fall another moment into your gravity
Here I am and I stand so tall
I'm just the way I'm supposed to be
But you're on to me and all over me

I live here on my knees
As I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need
Here on the ground

But you're neither friend nor foe
Though I can't seem to let you go
The one thing that I still know
Is that you're keeping me down
You're keeping me down

You're on to me, on to me and all over
Something always brings me back to you
It never takes too long




I love this song.  It brings me to a peaceful place.  I feel like its a perfect time for a bubble bath, a good book, and a glass of Viuts Cab.

No H8

Daniel Radcliffe on the cover of September's issue of Out Magazine.



On progress for the GLBT community:
"I think that with every generation, people become more open to those ideas and more aware and more educated. But it’s a really, really slow process. If you take any family with parents who are bringing their kids up in a narrow-minded way that includes homophobia, it will take a very profound moment of realization to change those deep-seated views."
"I grew up in a world where I was aware of gay and transgender culture from a very young age, because I was brought up with a real mix of people around me. And people who have a huge, different range of experiences. But not everyone grows up in the same circumstances."

On dating:
"I was in a relationship with somebody for just about three years, and we broke up just shortly before we hit that mark. But [the breakup] was very amicable. At the moment, I’m just being single and running around chasing girls. [Laughs] I’m not getting too many responses, but, yes, I’m having a go. I’m also starting to go on dates for the first time. I’ve never really done it because all my girlfriends that I’ve ever met, I’ve met through work. So we got to know each other really well at work and then kind of ended up going out. It’s quite nerve-racking because it’s not something I’m used to. Not that I struggle with talking, but I have this incredible anxiety about awkward silences and pauses and all that stuff, which I think everybody worries about. But I get quite wound up about that beforehand. I do actually manage to get quite chatty in the end — probably too much — and probably a bit boring. I just try to make girls laugh. That’s really the only thing I’m particularly good at on dates."




Quiet the role model, dontcha think?

my very first post.

With a love for white decor, i'm totally dreaming over this luxurious bedroom and spa-like bathroom. Mirrored side tables and glass lamps add a flair of glamour in the bedroom, along with the perfect little additions like blooming peonies, pretty perfumes, and a little silver tumbler to place your precious jewels. In the bathroom, more fresh flowers and a few framed butterflies perfectly accompany a collection of soaps and freshly laundered towels... wouldn't it be lovely to incorporate a little of this luxury at home? I plan on it...
