unknown shirt, shorts from Patina Boutique, Steve Madden boots

If you follow me on twitter or are a fan of my facebook page, you would have seen that I visited a little boutique called Patina last week. They have such a fabulous selection of new and vintage from sweaters and blouses to jewelry and shoes. AND hey have Nicole Richies line.. which I dream of being able to afford. I fall in love again everytime I go. And this time I fell in love with these lace shorts. It's shorts like these that I live for.. and what I might live IN for the next month or so.. I can't seem to take them off!

Cold Weather Cravings.

Our sudden heat wave, in the middle of September might I add, has got me craving the cold weather more than ever. I find that I spend my days dreaming of scarves, boots, and oversized sweaters.. styling outfits shown above and wishing I could be in such fabulous clothes.

Cold weather.. please come!

[Vogue October 2010]

Finding the time to sit down and really enjoy a good magazine is starting to seem nearly impossible. The stack of "to-be-read" magazines continues to pile up as my schedule continues to fill up. After finally getting to read over the latest issue of Vogue, I felt so much inspiration. Carrie Mulligan is such a sweet classic beauty and her impeccable, effortless style continues to put me in awe. The pieces used in this shoot are so breathtaking and no one could have worn them better. It's so nice feeling inspired, isn't it?

Girl Meets Boy.

Photobucket

Silence & Noise dress, H&M belt, Steve Madden boots

I wore this dress yesterday that I actually found at a consignment store. I love the concept of combat boots with a dress. I don't usually gravitate towards extremely feminine clothes, but if I do, adding a touch of masculinity (like my boots) always does the trick. The clash between the two makes for an exciting outfit.

Combat Boots.

thrifted top, H&M skirt, Steve Madden boots

It's that time of year when my boots that have been tucked back in the corner of my closet for months, finally get their chance to shine. I was heart broken however, when I went to put on my black ankle boots only to find that the soles were split in half! But, fate had something in store for me. I made a pit stop to my all-time favorite local consignment store and there staring straight at me where these Steve Madden combat boots.. in MY size! So I bought them, and now I'm the happiest girl in the world. 
The End.

Five Fall Tips [Wearing Scarves].

Forever 21 sweater and heels, H&M shorts, unknown scarf

Today felt like the first day of fall.. a little morning drizzle, hot coffee, bright cloudy skies, and a warm cozy scarf around my neck. I've always been a fan of wearing scarves, even in the summer (shown here), and I've come to the realization that scarves are one of the most versatile accessories a girl can own. Here are some ways to get creative with your scarves this fall.

1. The Drape
-just enough coverage for cooler mornings or evenings.

2. The Standard
-the typical way to tie a scarf.. fun, flirty, and functional.

3. The Tie
-not so much functional, but a great way to accessorize a dull outfit.

4. The Cape
-perfect way to keep your hair neat and dry on a rainy day

5. The Wrap
-solution to a bad hair day

The Good Life.

The opening of our vintage store, Theodora Vintage, is getting closer and closer and Taryn (of Style-Phenomenon) and I are very much enjoying crossing off items on our to-do list including part two of our photoshoot. The shoot went better than we could have imagined, leaving us with way too many great shots and two very tired girls. Next comes the toughest part, picking out our favorites!

As we get closer to the bottom of our list, my excitement grows even more and I can't wait to open our store! Make sure you become a fan of Theodora Vintage on facebook and get a sneak-peak before we open!

Grunge Goes Glam.

Glam Grunge


Delias Tee, ASOS leather trousers, Jeffrey Campbell "Helen" boots, Anya Hindmarch Roslyn clutch, YSL leopard scarf, Ray-Ban sunglasses


Grunge is one of those styles that totally and completely enthralls me, and I'm pretty sure I'm not alone on that.  But I love that today, we are putting a spin on the revolting, disheveled grunge style and bringing a little glam love to it.

Back to School.

Vintage dress, H&M bag, Old Navy wedges

Back to school for me means back to stress, homework, and a whole lotta procrastination. Though I can't quite put my finger on the reason why, I'm actually excited to be back at school! It could just be my excitement that fall clothes are almost here. :) What to wear on your first day always seems to be somewhat of a crisis and this outfit ended up being perfect. This dress was not only comfortable, but also perfect for the warm weather and good thing I opted for my across the body bag because it was great having two free hands!
