These are a few of my favorite things

I stumbled across the most amazing silk scarves the other day on Reborn, Made by Philippe Roucou and mainly so amazing because they are polaroids! The pictures are really creative, the they look so pretty once on. Take a look!

Thank you Mood!

Today was the big day bloggers, I finally went to Mood Fabrics! It was stressful to say the least, there is so many things to look at, it's overwhelming. After about two hours of walking around getting lost within fabrics, trimmings, feathers, velvet, people and a little dog I finally found the fabric I'm going to use for my dress I'm making. I don't have a picture yet but I'll show you soon, it's a pattern with taupe, red and black and is a little retro looking. I'm excited!

& of course I finally got the famous Mood bag!

I'm sorry I didn't take a lot of pictures I was too busy trying to find the perfect fabric!

Me and my two friends from class

After we went to see the American Beauty exhibit at the FIT Museum, everything was beautiful, there was a couple Rodarte dresses, and a sweater which made me die a little, and of course the most amazing vintage pieces ever. No pictures though, I wish I could have! After me and my two friends did some shopping at American Apparel and Forever 21 before we came back to school, I got a couple things:

Dress in that color and sash in sea foam green from American Apparel

From Forever 21, it's cropped and reminds me of the 50s

Mod Queen

I wanted to share my outfit today because it's one of my favorites! I know a lot of bloggers talk about loving certain outfits because of memories that have happened while wearing them, this outfit has many memories for me since I've had this certain dress for a little over two years now. It's a Jonathan Saunders for Target dress, has the perfect geometric shapes on it, the perfect mod touches so that when I wear it I feel like a combination of Twiggy and Edie Sedgwick.

Dress; Jonathan Saunders for Target

Tights; Target

Boots; thrifted

A little video that made me very happy, I hope you enjoy

Tomorrow I'm going into the city to finally go to Mood Fabrics with my sewing class as well as going to the FIT museum! I'm so excited to finally go into the city for something more fashion related. I'll take lots of pictures and show you guys when I get back!

Craving Pastels

I was really excited today when Fashiongonerogue finally posted the preview of Oscar De La Renta SS 2010 campaign. ODLR is my all time favorite designer, and this picture is beautiful

Also I wanted to share the Girls Allowed editorial from the March 2010 issue of UK Vogue (with Alexa Chung on it, I can't wait to get my hands on it!) The colors, textures and fabrics are gorgeous so of course all you bloggers must see it.

So many outfits, so little time

I finally got around to taking some outfit pictures in the past couple of days. I'm really excited to be finally trying out the turban look and thanks to Calivintage I finally figured out how to do it, although I don't have the American Apparel sash to try it with I figured out how to make my silk scarf into one although it was a little too short. I think it looks pretty good, but I have to get the courage to actually wear it around school - I already get enough looks because I actually dress up haha!

This is the first time I've actually worn the Rodarte for Target dress I was so excited to buy, it's a little dressy for day to day wear but I finally figured out how to dress it down, and I really like the way the tulle looks coming out of my skirt :)!

I also entered the H&M and blue contest on Lookbook, it's not my favorite outfit but I thought I'd try, hype it here

Everything H&M but the heels and the scarf is from NYC

Also I got another Best Blogger Award from Amy at The Bargin Hunter Extraordinaire, and I got the Happy 101 award from Andrea at Sitting In Booths! You can find my ten facts about myself here.

1. My dog Crystal
2. Fashion
3. My boyfriend
4. Cheese Ravioli in butter
5. Polaroids
6. My family
7. DIY projects
8. Going to New York City
9. Seeing the skyline of NYC from my dorm
10. Styling new outfits

Thank you both so much :) Bloggers check them out, they both have great blogs!

Through the rabbit hole

Although unlike everyone else I'm not totally and completely excited for the new Alice In Wonderland movie coming out, however I will see it just because I believe all the costumes will be wonderful and because Q. and C. have been in love with Alice In Wonderland since I've known them so I feel like I have to now (thanks guys!) BUT the new cover girl for Teen Vogue's most recent issue is Mia Wasikowska, and the shoot they did with her is gorgeous so I thought I'd share! (and I had no idea she had short hair, and I love it on her!)

Teen Vogue also had a great idea of doing "Mia's way vs. 'Our' Way" showing you cheap alternatives to what Mia wears in the shoot; here were some of my favorites

French Connection Dress; Blue Bijoux Spike Necklace


Topshop Smock dress; Express Necklace
