  • Striped Crop Top + Palazzo Pants

    By SP on August 31, 2011
    Greg and I love walking the kids to the dog park in the evenings. They get to run around and play with neighborhood kids & dogs, while we get some air and chit chat. Sometimes, we pick up a game of soccer. I’m wearing a nasty gal shirt with the back worn as the front. Paired with palazzo pants and [...]

    It’s my daughter’s 4th birthday today! Woohoo. Last night, her dad asked her what she wanted to do and she said, “I want fried rice and chicken.” OK!

  • Lanvin Fall 2011 Campaign – Funny Video

    By SP on August 30, 2011
    This has got to be one of the funniest campaigns I have seen all season. Lanvin’s Fall 2011 Campaign had the models (Raquel Zimmermann and Karen Elson dancing. They clearly have no rhythm and the video was meant to be funny, so I don’t know why folks are taking it too seriously. I think we need to see more fun [...]

    By SP on August 29, 2011
    Totally loving the androgynous looks here. Obsessed with the first photo, the silver, pointy toe oxford shoes and every single piece in the Zara August 2011 lookbook. The idea of pairing menswear inspired pieces with glitter and feminine silhouettes is totally genius. We have started the countdown for the launch of Zara’s e-commerce site. This means I’m going to pay [...]
