Dearest Barbie,

You made me dream big from the moment I could crawl. Your glamour, beauty and grace… your bulging closets, your dream house and fast car. I love you and will always hold you close to my heart.

We are dizzy over Thom Browne’s latest collection. The punkrock outrageousness is delightful and delicious! YES THOM! YES!

ESOTERIC ESSAYAGES

What A Doll!

As far as Barbie is concerned, her best era for clothing was definitely the 1970s. She rocked some fabulously outrageous attire and was all the better for it. The dresses below are all from 1973.

There Are Always Exceptions To The Rule

I despise sweats and think that they look so unflattering on people, and frankly should never be worn, not even when alone and in the privacy of your home… however, there is always the exception to every rule. Feast your eyes on this hip and sexy Keith Richards Polaroid Sweatshirt! I love the slim cut and the edgy graphic!

FASHIONABLE  FABULOUS FUNNY FIERCE

These are really and truly the coolest tote bags I have seen in ever so long! I am dying for one (or the whole collection, actually). Clever, witty, brilliant and oh so chic!

SCHOOL NIGHTS

My Favorite Thing To Wear

Target currently has the most fabulous punkrock pajamas for sale in the little boys department. About two weeks ago I bought the chicest (and most comfortable) black fleece robe with skulls and crossbones printed all over it. I swear I haven’t taken the thing off since I bought it and I have frequently considered wearing it out with a pair of skinny jeans. It was the best $16.99 I ever spent! Fabulous doesn’t always have to be expensive.

Gift Ideas… The First of the Season

Electronics are generally unattractive and complicated. I prefer things that possess a simple beauty. Fortunately, en&is have designed a gorgeous alternative, allowing for music to pour forth from a vessel that resembles… and in fact is… a work of art. The MegaPhone below is a ceramic amplifier designed to amplify and optimize the sound from your iPhone and iPod Touch. Now you can listen in style!
