Rainbow nails courtesy of j.crew testers. haha. I was actually just testing out colors over the weekend while I was at the store, but I think I might actually want to give it a try.

What? A Balloon Corsage?!



Please ignore my bed hair and pajamas...

ANYWAY, I know I am way too old for prom :( sadness... but if I were going to prom again, I think I might wear a balloon corsage. It's so cute and unconventional. I just love it.

Meeting Garance Doré and the Sartorialist






Hands down, the highlight of my year. Scott and Garance were both so sweet, especially Ms. Garance. I adore both of their blogs, so meeting them was really exciting. Unfortunately my oufit was kind of blehhh yesterday, but honestly, I didn't care, because I was just so excited to see them. Luckily I was able to catch them at dinner before Scott had his speaking event at my wonderful university.

I still can't get over it!

Coachella Ella Ella ... ay ay ay




(Generra top, Abercrombie & Fitch shorts --jeans I cut, Aerosoles sandals, Mimco bag)

Unfortunately I did not have tickets to Coachella :( SADNESS. But my outfit today, while totally unintentional, had a very tribal, musical festival look. There's always next year.

All the king's horses and all the king's men






I don't know if you got the reference to Humptey Dumptey for my post title, but my dress has little prints of nursery rhyme characters.



(Insight dress, Gap Kids sandals, Ray-Ban aviators)

Today was just such a gorgeous, sunny day in Los Angeles, I couldn't resist spending some time in the backyard and painting my nails a lovely, sparkley coral. Spring is definitely my favorite season. It's not too hot, not too cold. It's just right!

Current Obsession: Mini Deserts




A few weeks ago, while I was on Spring Break, my mom and I went to Forage in Silver Lake to grab some dessert. When we were paying at the front counter, I noticed this adorable little succulent arrangement tiny fish bowl. It turned out that one of the employees had made it, so we asked if we could place an order. So we left our number, and still, no call. I'm so sad. Is she ever going to make one for me? I want one so badly.

Here are some pictures I've been staring at while I wait for my own mini desert.

Sunday's Look: Vintage Darling

Untitled
On Saturday, My mom and I went to visit my aunt, who recently moved into a new house. While it was totally unexpected, it was definitely a pleasant surprise to receive some of her old clothes and shoes. I will eventually do a post on all the things I got from her.

On Sunday, I wore a polka dot silk tank by Escada that used to be my Grandma's. I paired it with a Rene Lezard blazer from my aunt, Ruehl skinny jeans, and Fendi Oxfords that my grandma had given to my aunt. For accessories, I kept it very simple. I carried my Chanel quilted bag, and wore a sapphire striped ring from my aunt.

I absolutely love vintage. Especially when it's in mint condition, and handed down to me from my family. It makes it feel extra special.
