Blue and white obsession

I have recently been obsessed with anything blue and white - basically channeling Zooey Deschanel, vintage and china tea patterns. Which brings me to what I wore today. Ever since I went for my first interview at Zara I have been eyeing a skirt with the best pattern and colors (blue and white of course) with bicycles all over! I've been drawn to odd prints with the influence of Rebecca from The Clothes Horse who always has the best clothing with the coolest prints! So I finally purchased the skirt and wore it as soon as I could!

I paired all this blue and white with brown accessories, I love the combination so much for some reason and it was the only color I pictured with this skirt. I also tried a different look instead of a tank top tucked in I opted for this baggy crop top shirt and belted it, I love how it came out.

This bag was one of my first vintage purchases like 4 years ago, I was real into the 60's hippie look and I saw this and couldn't pass it up, I still love it!

Thanks to Rebecca The Clothes Horse's tumblr, I came across this wonderful lookbook illustrated by Kris Atomic for Lamija Suljevic's autum/winter 2010 collection. It's so adorable so I thought I'd show all of you.

Here's pictures for the actual collection:

I wish someone would do an illustration or drawing of me, I think it's so cute when blog readers do it for their favorite blogs, maybe one day!

Dreams

Recently, I've had two dreams both I guess are achievable but both require a lot of work.

Dream 1; To have ModCloth name a dress after me! I love that they do a "blogger of the moment" in ModCloth's blog ModLife and every time the blogger does an interview with them, picks out her favorites from the shop and then ModCloth names a dress after the blogger, which usually is the blogger's style. I've become in love with every dress for different reasons, probably because I love all the bloggers they choose so much!

Here are some of my favorites!
