Hair Envy

I have supidly curly, untamable hair and it is Driving. Me. Insane!
Its too much effort to straighten it all the time, and when I wear it curly its like a box of chocolates- I never know what I'm going to get! (Sorry...that was terrible).

This is what makes me so supremely jealous of Carrie Bradshaw.
NOW I understand that this is a fictional character and that she had a team of hairstylists fussing over her, most likely for several hours, to get this amazingness to happen, but can't you just let me live the fantasy? I'm going to continue to live in my dream world where hopefully one day I will wake up and my curls will magically have begun to behave and look as amazing as this...







P.s. I LOVE that red heart necklace & those red pointy shoes!

Summertime...

Even though its not the best summer weather today, alternating between muggy and raining (sorry Oprah), I'm hopeful for at least a proper summery Christmas. Looking at these pictures just make me crave a proper summer even more!


I LOVELOVELOVE this picture...I need to find this tree! 



I don't really enjoy driving, but theres just something about driving with the window down when the air smells like summer...

All The Cool Kids...

...Ride Bikes!

So need to get a cool bicycle...I walk past Clarence St Cyclery every day and they have some of the COOLEST bicycles in the windows in gorgeous colours. I can just imagine myself riding them through a park or something. Although, being me, falling off them in a park is probably a more accurate scenario...

Still, at least I'd look cool doing it.







Things I need in my life

A cape, need to track one down before winter...

Some leopard print







A vintage breifcase that looks all battered and bashed up to use as my handbag

I wish...

I really wish I was cool enough to wear my coat effortlessly hanging from my shoulders like this. I'm too much of a gumby and would definately lose my coat if I tried, but it just looks so elegant and cool. I imagine Grace Kelly would have worn her coat like this...

Carine

Ok, word association time!

Vogue Editor?

Now, personally I think about 90% of the population is going to say 'Anna Wintour'
Well, ok, 90% of the population of people that give a shit...

Anna has that classic American New-York-Upper-East-Side thing going on, and you kind of get the impression that she's a bit cold?! Personally, I've never been able to really get into America Vogue...Anna just isn't my style.

But Carine! Ahhh Carine Roitfeld- the Rock Star of the Vogue editors. Now this is a woman you want to party with! Impeccable style, takes risks and she just looks like she would be so much fun!
